How to Buy a Football Club

Featured Replies

Anyone watching this on Channel 4+1? Shows the sad state of football today and corruption, surprise surprise it involves Man Utd. Bryan Robson the first to be named and shamed.

Despicable.

Utd got hammered in that didnt they, and old red nose took some stick unsurprisingly. Hes obviously as dodgy as hell.

Yeah. Hughes, Bruce and Keane were mentioned as well but I wouldn't read too much into that. Fergie and Fergie Jr well.... we all know they are dodgy.

what were the revelations mate?

Just that its possible to set up investment funds that pretty much own each other, then you can buy more than one football club (conflict of interests etc. etc.)

Investing in a team in the championship, get them promoted and then sell on making a profit. The person that was helping them do the buying of the club had a relationship with Alex Ferguson and basically said that SAF will loan out players from Utd to any team he owns. And that Sir Alex can call any other manager (Hughes, Keane and Bruce) and get them to loan players to the club. The guy was having dinner with SAF at some point and put him on the phone to say hello, which was quite funny.

No chance of SAF giving after match interviews now then

That's right. He'll add Channel 4 to the BBC to his list of which TV stations to boycott, which will severely affect the quality of Channel 4's Premiership coverage.
