Ken wants someone to buy him out and re-coup his money, he is after all a businessman!
Then someone (whoever that is, I can't be sure - but they own Forward Sports Fund, or whoever - registered in the Cayman islands or whatever - who waived a debt of £7m for the re-sale of Leeds United from Ken, to, er, definitely NOT Ken) - well, if that were me, surely those fuckers want their £7million back at some point in time? The average Championship revenue (non gate income etc.) is approx £1m+ a year. £2m maximum? The parachute payments are now approx £58m over four years. That's ten times the income for one year - which again nets approx £60m itself on top of the parachute payments. The clubs coming down next year (if well run) have ten times the clout of those already there, for a further 4 years. More if you're Blackpool and refuse to prostitute yourself for a season of being well fingered by Arsenal etc. They ain't gonna spend it on upgrading the catering facilities! > Subject: Re: [LU] Fixtures > To: [email protected]; [email protected]; > [email protected]; [email protected] > From: [email protected] > Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2010 15:31:16 +0000 > > Does Ken want us to go up?
