"Bury and Bolton really struggling so should the cash rich premier league help bail them out bearing in mind the amount of money that agents take out of the premier league For me I think they should and stop little clubs going out of business yes I know some are badly run and why should other clubs bail them out but the money in the premier should filter down maybe the fa need to do more when owners like the venkys took over at Blackburn and ruined them " Premiership money should filter down, Maybe into the youth system of lower league clubs but not to bail out clubs who are badly run | |||

Man utd have a global fan base which attracts huge sponsors that's where most of the money comes from, Even if the Glazers pull out due to losing money someone else will buy them | |||

I think the Manure (yes, intended) fans went to FC Manchester, and Salford City. I am pretty sure, that a few former Utd players are directors at one, or even both, clubs. Some of the problem is ticket prices. Yes, it costs millions per year to run some clubs, and, someone has to pay. I also think that, to some extent, fans have not helped themselves, by continuing the support of clubs, who raise ticket prices, have multiple strips, thus meaning people buy all thirty three different versions, and paying the wages players/agents command. Hey ho...such is life. | |||

"I can't wait for prem club to go skint ...I support lower league football ...Dover afc...at least they appreciate supporters" Apparently Chelsea were hours away from calling the receivers before Abramovitch turned up. He changed the whole way transfers were conducted. Most were done on a sliding scale of payments, so a multi million pound transfer was spread out over several seasons. He simply wrote a cheque for the full amount. A hell of a lot of that money filtered down to lower clubs, it saved quite a few from going out of business. There's a couple of pages in a Harry Harris book about Abramovitch that's follows the money trail and how it benefited other clubs in the lower leagues. | |||
