Panther7: Not just that they borrowed money to buy the club. They secured the loans against the club's assets thereby incurring large interests which the club then had to (and continue to) pay. Also, every year they award themselves millions of pounds as consultancy fees, then pay off some of the debt before using some of the money made by the club to pay for player purchase and salaries. If you analyse this scenario they have not spent their personal money at all. Compare this with City, PSG e.t.c where the authentic billionaire owners augment club finances with their money in order to finance huge transfers. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Expert17:We are spending heavily on one player, the spending is not evenly distributed. People keep saying we spent 200M but we just bought 4 players just 4! Out of that 200M 80 went to slabhead. Even the players we bought are replacement for players that left Maguire for smalling and AWB for Valencia, we didn't spend money to upgrade any position except from bruno which was need. 3 Likes |

afrodoc2:Lol I know that. In as much as they have all these things going on and are running the club down, we can't accuse them of not spending money, at least in the last 5 years. I'll like to get your view on this |

afrodoc2:They used the assets of the club to secure the loan? This sounds like some gangster shit. They already owned the club or how were they able to use the club assets to secure the loan used in buying the club? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 4:59pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
eph12: They are spending enough of the money made by the club to keep the club competitive enough to keep on making money. They have not spent any of their own money. The club they own was bought via loans to be paid back by the club. Other clubs owned by billionaires get extra money from their owners for transfers, our own billionaires use the money the club generates to pay off debt they caused in the first place, then pay themselves huge allowances before thinking of buying players. They know if they stop spending completely the club will run down fast and stop making money. There is a reason during Fergie's time the club was selling Ronaldo for world record fee and replacing him with Valencia and co. When he left they tried to continue the same policy with piece meal Fellaini signing until reality struck. Let's not make the Glazers up to be some kindly and generous benefactors. They are leeches who played a major role in all that has happened post Fergie. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

afrodoc2:Afrodoc, Do you think part of the reasons Ferguson resigned was because he knew the Glazers couldn't keep up with the spending like City did? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by afrodoc2: 5:03pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
eph12: They didn't own the club. Fans were planning to revolt when this happened in 04/05, and a few fans actually revolted. Manchester United had NO DEBT before the Glazers bought the club. They loaded the club with the debt of the loans they had used to buy the club. The banks agreed because everybody knew that United would continue making money and pay back the loans with interest. 5 Likes 1 Share |

eph12:Like they were able to convince the banks that they will definitely buy united instead of using their own assest as collateral, they used the club's own. |

Panther7: Age, poor health and fatigue had set in. He just couldn't summon that drive and passion like before. Remember he planned on retiring earlier but changed his mind. He just wanted one last title for the road. Also he had been coaching at a high level continuously for almost 40 yrs. 2 Likes |

afrodoc2:But I'm looking at the data now, and we have spent more than everyone in the epl except city. I think this is the major issue here and not how they bought the club or how they are spending the club's money. What I'm looking at now is how bad we have been when it comes to spending money on transfers |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 5:31pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
afrodoc2:Okay I understand what happened now. Never bothered to look it up before. Mrta7, technically who owns the club? |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by eph12(m): 5:32pm On Aug 19, 2020 |
Panther7:Uhm from what afrodoc2 explained, sounds like they transferred collateral or asset from whatever it was to United assets |

eph12: Well if they dont service the debt. The banks own the club. so its not their money. I dont see Liverpool, City etc with the same issue. |
