So because we had a turnover of £140m that automatically means we weren't in financial difficulties? Remind me not to go into business with you.

Haven't we just had to borrow against future TV income from Barclays so how exactly are 'they' keeping a roof over our heads.

Two charges ifo MacQuarrie Bank have also appeared on 5th Sept relating to deferred payments owed for Mesa and Fabianski. The Companies House filing docs for these two make interesting reading as it states precise amounts and timescales for the payments made by West Ham. I haven't really looked at the Mesa one.

It doesn't take a genius to see we have signed over the stage payments owed from West Ham etc to this Australian Bank, probably to free up immediate short term cash.

So please tell me again, what exactly have the Americans brought to the party?

T2C has lost the plot. The Americans are now "keeping a roof over our heads". This is somehow commendable despite the fact it was their incompetence that put us in financial difficulty in the first place.

Any time you feel a morsel of forgiveness just remember these were the thick c*nts that appointed the least qualified PL manager in history and ruined a whole transfer window by waiting a month to sell Sigurdsson. They're not asset strippers just another faction of out-of-touch venture capitalists who know nothing about football.

And negotiated a deal to lease the Liberty stadium for a cool £300,000 PA, when our previous lease was for a peppercorn charge.

I wonder how much the stream of Liberty income will be in the future.

One of the reasons your mate Huw conknose Jenkins gave to justify the takeover was that the old board and club were facing huge cash flow issues and the yanks had huge finances that would help with the situation. That of course turned out to be utter utter bollocks of course.


Excuse me but that's exactly what the Americans are doing, they've got the means to cover short term cashflow issues.

What we've borrowed from Barclay's is something we've done every season since being in the EPL.

How you can uptick no regard for the future when they're literally keeping a roof over our heads is baffling me.

And I don't think we were in financial difficulties either. We had a turnover of 140m FFS.


House of Fraser (ok not a football club) had a turnover of £836 million in 2017.

In July 2018 it went bust.

Pointless citing turnover as any sort of justification to suit the argument here.

Oh,..Dave, what's occuring?

So when these loan facilities we utilise periodically aren't enough, they step in to cover costs and keep us running.

But did you seriously need me to explain that?

I don't think we can disagree with that? We didn't have major debt on relegation (unlike Sunderland and several other clubs in the past) our problem was a massive drop in income but still having massive payroll obligations.
I reckon for some of us the problem isn't so much what they want to do but just how they are going about it, cutting a lot more than they have to this season though again, without seeing the accounts it's difficult to know.
There is this to consider,

I did go mate and it was the first time I'd seen them live. Not sure they play much from their 90s albums these days but they've still released some good stuff recently. You a regular at green man? It's quickly becoming my favourite festival.

At Coventry the vampiric HEDGE FUND OWNERS SISU have ripped the heart and home from a proud Midlands club that once spent 35 years in the top division. For all their disgusting actions it is the trivial examples that most reveal their ineptitude: after abandoning the idea of ‘text-a-substitute’ (at premium rates natch) a senior representative of the company sat in a key meeting as the club faced bankruptcy.

The elephant in the room so to speak is that a football club is unlike normal businesses.
That's why those that end up getting run by "investors" usually end up in "trouble"
Sometimes good business men who are emotionally attached to a club tend to leave their business brain at the gates and let heart rule their heads....the late great Malcolm Struel was such an example but without him we would never have enjoyed the great Toshack era and that sunny August day against Leeds.
Those in it purely for the money tend to put the football last forgetting that the fans need to be entertained and loved...and as performances can not be predictive like production outputs sales forecasts or the like but do effect the bottom line knee jerks reactions to achieve financial returns then become priority I over the on field success or long term survival of the club.
This is the situation we now find ourselves in.A shame really given we had what many clubs dream of being owned mainly by local fans. In some ways a repeat of the Struel days fans making dome inept business decisions driven by their fan heads Disspointing really that the lessons from the past had not been learnt or that a successful business man allowed someone with a history of business failures to take the lead.

Yeah I couldn't understand this at the time the new lease was signed?? The new rent ,business rates to the council and service charges to the landlords must be astronomical by now. I think the local council are not so lenient now it's in the hands of private investors. They'll certainly want more income.

Anyway,lucky we don't own it or it could be sold off one day to Wimpey Homes and a nice new estate built on it.

Asset stripping is a pretty broad term, but the history of Wimbledon prior to the move to MK Dons doesn’t make good reading. Similar for Darlington and York. Rushden and Diamonds seems more like incompetence but I don’t know so much about the history of that one.

Coventry, Blackburn, Portsmouth and Blackpool are more high profile and bits of the story could meet the definition. And Swansea under Petty. And we probably dodged a bullet under Thompson before that.

How many do you need?

I thought the terms of the lease was it can only be used as a sports venue?.
