I'm going to support Millwall now they are clearly a team of winners and sound like a real 'conmunity' club

flowbee abortion posted:aye, wonder what the interest rate on that poo poo is now. think she was 5% last I checked. This summer is going to be a huge decider for the clubs future. The funny thing is - if ME goes the insolvency route all the debt is owed to him so he's just taking a massive write off; plus the points deduction would make the sale value even less than it would be now. I don't know exactly what ME's financial situation is like due to him being notoriously secretive, but the club is being run with a vicious cost-cutting approach; throw in alleged ticket touting and if it's any indicator then things are not good. Ideally it seems he needs to sell, but who's going to buy? Why would you take over a club with huge debts owed to one man who needs that money? He will only demand payment and make the club's future a misery. Plus, knowing that the situation is so bad why buy now? The price will only get lower. The only way out of this ME has that gets him full payment, is if he has enough money to keep the club Championship competitive enough, long enough, to chip away some debt and luck in to some better fortunes (i.e. couple amazing academy players to cash in / take us up the table). Except if he had the ability to do that the squad wouldn't be in the state it is now, with the entire stadium running on minimum possible staff and supplies. ME has to make a compromise somewhere. If he keeps on this course the club goes down, stays down and he loses a tonne of money. If he goes insolvent he also loses a tonne of money, but at least it's (in theory) a known quantity and the situation is clarified. This could actually be attractive to ME if he's looking to secure financing for his other business interests. The Ipswich debt would rated in the lowest possible way and could be a huge drag on other areas of his 'empire'. The best possible scenario is a sale on the condition he restructures the debt for the new owners. After our miracle against Newcastle he has a summers opportunity to do just that. After next season when we probably get relegated it'll be a lot harder and then insolvency becomes a real possibility. Without an unlikely sale this summer the bottom could well and truly fall out for us. In other news has Ruddy been signed anywhere yet? I fully expect our goalie to be sold for too much money to a Premiership club. Replacing him with a free is exactly what we will do and Ruddy would not be a bad option in that situation.

We released him because we couldn't afford a decent but not spectacular keeper on Prem wages.

Norwich get Farke-d. Can't say I know anything about him but I like the idea of the hire from a Norwich perspective, a lot more forward thinking than Mick .
