Enough to cover the debt, if they are lucky!

It makes depressing reading. £237M in debt and no stadium!

Its going to get worse for them as they don't make it into the CL this year. :thumbup:

Yup, not exactly the best time to try and make a good price on them is it...seems strange timing considering how long they have held out.

Perhaps they see a Leeds like fall from grace on the horizon:unsure:

"Leeds" and "grace" in the same sentence? :confused::rofl:

Unfortunately I doubt it. But they do seem to be trying to cut their losses. Americans owning football teams is just wrong.

Yup. Money has changed everything.

Out of the CL might help the balance book in the short term...they wont attract any decent (expensive) new players, and some of the more expensive assets might get itchy feet and be cashed in on:( i wonder how many have champions league related escape clauses in this day and age.

They seem to be in a Newcastle/Mike Ashley situation now. After damaging the club will they be able to get the amount of money back they will want - seems unlikely.

They (MU) are not a one man team. Bellers & co. must feeling like hanging themselves...again.

That would explain the timing - not going to ge CL next season ... things going to get worse (potentially) - hope not fo your sake even though not a liverpool fan ...
