Due diligence, lessons have been learned etc., BLAH.

Hubris prevents me from enjoying that show because we may have no teams left to play in five years

Another hidden effect of the Sky/Murdoch influence, currently hitting the headlines?

Pump HUGE amounts of money into English Premier League, with only a small proportion dribbling down to the Leagues below.

Makes it very expensive to buy directly into the top league, and a bargain price to buy into the league below.

There a much more modest further investment can greatly boost prospects of beating all the other minnows, and succeeding in crossing the step into the top league, with immediate mahoosive handout just for getting there.

That already gives huge boost to value of the club, making it easier, without even playing a match, to attract in further funds from investors.

It isn't a certainty, but there is a fair percentage chance that the motivated and raring to go team will just about succeed in scraping through the first year, and then a reasonable chance of being there a year or two later - time to sell out at10/15/20 times original investment.

Just download Channel4 programme to guide you with all further details needed to help you on your way!

Me too also lived at Rita Avenue in Rusholme, can you still get scraps in the chippies !! Student days with no money left after a night out & go in and ask for a bag of scraps and they would give you the batter waste from the dip fat fryer with miniscule bits of chips in mmmmmmmm

Oh thick gravy is heaven also cheesy peas !!

Is it not a legal requirement that the deceased's worldly goods have to be declared to Probate. I have a friend who works in this field and will ask him in the morning.

Actually the club is owned by the Liebherr family - simple as that.

Football ownership is a shabby area and this film showed how murky this is.

I am mightily glad that we do not have some shady overseas owner/s

As matter of interest is the Albion technically owned in Britain and do we have up to date info on the shareholder structure?
