And you are not going to make these jokes when somebody comes and asks the Glazers for repayment on the one billion dollars he borrowed to buy United.

Is it me or does it seem that buying a team now is a lot like flipping a house. Borrow as much finanicing as you can. Knowing the team will make X and you would have enough to repay the payments and keep a little on top of that.

I am sure we pull our resources and credit scores we can get somebody to loan us the 100% financing to buy Luton Town.

yes but thats not the point... thats manchester United... this is Liverpool.

There was kind of an interesting article on ESPN about the downfall of the FA Cup since the 1999-2000 tournament when ManU withdrew from the competition to play in the FIFA Club World Cup.

I still think our second team loosing to the spurs is better than Chelsea loosing to Burnley with a number of their starters playing. It doesn't matter anyways, its just the Carling cup.
