Doesn't look like it is as manageable as Manchester United, no.

No it wont.

The debt is perfectly manageable and always has been.


Not really. It really depends on champions league football. One season without champions league after Fergie leaves and we could be in serious trouble. But I don't expend much of the Ronaldo fee to pay off the debt.

How likely is that?

It could easily happen after Fergie leaves. Nothing in football is guaranteed.

That graph hasn't got big Trev in it and thus is void.

You are entitled to nothing!

Is a footballer now allowed to go out on the pull in the close season then?

People were once talking about Andy Cole's record signing to Utd for £9 million. :lol:


Cole was £6.25 million.

My mistake. That wasn't really my point anyway, it was answering Poncho saying Ronaldo is worth the same as Figo and Zidane combined.

If those two players were in their prime now at this time, they would have been worth considerably more.


My post was laughing at how much money players cost these days compared to several years ago.

I think it's more to do with him scoring with a skank like Paris Hilton.

Never seen Rooney do anything like this before


Second in my goals of the season, typically it happened against us, but even I applauded that piece of brilliant skill.

Man, for Bork to put Berbatov ahead of Tevez... must be a mistake. Y'know, because he loves Tevez.

Nope, Dimitar is that damn good, just not the right type of striker for United.
