Mick Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Right. Divvy. I don't want to get into describing you in all the obvious ways - let's just nip back over to the thread where you can't understand what stats are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I reckon if he keeps the Cabaye money he could sell us for £200 million Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Is that kind of asset stripping not illegal? I guess technically he could pay himself massive dividends up to the total of our profits. Also there's debt repayments, which some people object to.

Guest tollemache Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I've got nothing against him taking his money back out and buggering off with it, in broad terms. Does anyone have a good idea what the state of play would be if he did that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I reckon he will take the TV money before he leaves. Why wouldn't you? if he takes the TV money he'll stay here as no one will buy without that money still being in the pot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't you? if he takes the TV money he'll stay here as no one will buy without that money still being in the pot. tit for tat no? Would always be accounted for in the sale price. not really. he'll want what he's paid out so far or are you saying he'll take the TV money as part of what he's owed ?

madras Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Im just saying clubs will still be sold after the TV money has been and gone. Quite easy money for him to take. Whether it forms part of his repayment, recouping etc, or just a rich man getting a little richer do you think if he took the TV money and held out for what he paid he'd find a buyer ? fwiw I believe if he'd been offered an even break deal he'd have took it any time since that Hull game.

Yeah I do. I don't think thats too controversial either, all you'd need is someone predicting growth in the premier league. got to disagree, while there will be growth it will be more than equalled by growth in outgoings.

Guest chopey Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Depends who's keeping that profit, him or the club Are you new ?..........................Ashley is selling the family silver to get his money back on a catastrophic mistake he made by purchasing us in the first place Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tollemache Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Told you that did he? I don't doubt he's trying to get his money back, but how do we know he's planning to asset-strip the club in the process? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Why wouldn't you keep it if you were Ashley? because it's a strange startegy, put in over 200million and take out in drips and drabs, years before break even and more before any realistic profit. I'm sure there are many ways of investing that sort of cash with better and safer returns. you said earlier that the 60mill tv money would just inflate the asking price by that much, I don't see it that way, outgoings will increase and to just add 60mill on to what he paid is to forgot thats 60mill added on to what had polygon and belgravia walking away.

I don't mind putting a 12 team accumulator on for £2 but if I'm betting £100 it'll be a short price straight bet, no multiples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
