I presume one of them is Chelsea, so almost certainly no.

I thought Cavanagh's approach played on that emotion - the inference of the cold, cash hungry GAA denying many the right to see our games, in their pursuit of money.
It could not go unchallenged and the response was an extremely powerful put down.

Not so sure that would happen everywhere.Quote from: gerrykeegan on May 14, 2024, 08:22:46 AMMy 17 year old said to me who thought it was a good idea to put that portal there.

They could put it anywhere and people would still act the ****. It's human nature. Could have it in ballsbridge and all the poshos would be coming out of the pubs and doing the same.
That said, corner of North Earl Street definitely a terrible location. Shocked it hasn't been vandalised yet.

I'll get me coat.
But it reeks of owners who've bled the club dry and not one bean of their money will ever be spent on Manchester United.
How can you say that, just the £2.1bn in player acquisitions since they bought the club
And not one bean of it from the Glazers.
That was all revenue generated by Man Utd PLC.
True, but as owners they could have used the cash reserves to pay themselves dividends so it is their money. I dont disagree that they have been shocking owners but it is a case of spending money badly rather than not spending it.
Its the risks of being a plc as United was, there are benefits in terms of access to cash to invest and grow but you are vulnerable to an unwanted owner coming in.
That's the exact point they were paying themselves the dividends at the same time. So instead of redeveloping the stadium and training facilities alongside investing in the playing squad, they choose one.
The money has been invested badly in the playing squad but that comes from not having top quality football people making those calls, you had Ed Woodward with his finance background and no discernible footballing decision making structure.
But they dont care as long as the club keeps making money for them.
