But they won't be walking away they have invested a lot into the club. Or are you just hoping they walk ?.I’m just going off our local ombudsman’s (langers) figures.
My reading has City in much more debt if Sheikin Sultans walks away.
£236m doesn’t seem a lot to run a club on does it. And it also doesn’t take into account any outstanding player/agent fees etc. Factor that in and you’re almost certainly bankrupt before even beginning to start to run the club.
This is why they introduce FFP, to stop clubs effectively risking bankruptcy on the back of an owners word that they won’t sell/walk away.
Which is why I included the Glazers leveraged deal for our club in the mix. Because of the financial risk involved (it almost crippled us) they made those sort of buyouts illegal.
