Is it much difference between the Glaziers takeover and this

Sat Jun 09, 2012 11:11 pm

The only different was that United were in the black when they took over. But both clubs are now swimming in debt, both are borrowing more, yet the reaction from fans between what happened there and what happened here is miles apart.

Is this a gamble supporters really want their football club to take..? because if it goes wrong :cry:

Fully agree as I would have had two terms then ;)

Anyway back to my original point, do you have anything constructive to say or like many other Red supporters are you not recongising the fact that its too much of a gamble..?

you really are thick sometimes which is interesting in its own way
our situation and Manchester United's situation are miles apart
Manchester United are believed to be worth nearly £2billion and their debt is worth approx. £420million so even if their debts were all called in tomorrow even if they had to sell large amounts of their assets they would still be here or be it maybe in league 1.
If our debts were called in tomorrow our club would cease to exist.
theres the difference
Manchester United fans are worried they might not be able to compete at the top level with their debt
Cardiff City fans are worried they might not be able to compete at all.

Well as you are a steward and representing the club I think your remark just shows the intelligence levels at the club at times.

Both sets of fans are worried because both board are taking gambles. As you know its all around serviving the debt. As everyone knows United have re-financed on more than one occasion because they are struggling with the terms so if we don't get promoted will we do the same..? United fans protested and showed their anger because they didn't want their club taking such a risk yet ours are prepared to let the owners play Russian Roulette and 'if' they lose then there will we be..?

As I said it's s stupid comparison, as Man Utd have got a turnover that our club can only dream about!

Their turnover is far more than their debt, where our turnover is far less than our debt!

We'd be in the shit, where they wouldn't be!

wow the steward thing havent had that thrown at me for a while lol
and I dont represent the club when it comes to the financial side so your argument is flawed
I am a steward, Im also I supporter of Cardiff City which is why im not a steward at Swansea and trust me they pay more.
clubs always make gambles, the whole football industry is based on a gamble, that gamble being winning football games which leads to promotions and winning silverware.
Sams gamble payed off as in we are playing at a higher level than where we once were, it also failed as in the financial mess we are in.
If the gamble pays off we play at a higher level if it doesnt we either stay where we are or in a lower position. The responsibility comes when the board decide can they afford the gamble if things go wrong. In the opinion of Manchester United fans they are concerned that they will start going backwards based on their boards decisions. If our board dont play this situation correctly we may cease to exist, but if our board didnt exist as it does we wouldnt have a football club.
Its very simple logic and not hard to figure out.
Manchester United want glory at the top level.
Cardiff City just want to have a football club and not an empty space where one used to be.
By the way its surviving not serviving and im not sure what 'there will we be' means I assume you meant 'where will we be'

I agree Angry is a f*cking idiot but VT has loaned us money with interest in top so there are similarities.

Its debt whichever way you look at it
