This bit sums the it up in a paragraph for those who want Short out: "On the one hand, Short has proved himself a good owner by providing significant funding to Sunderland. In fact, not only has he loaned the club around £160 million interest-free, but he has actually capitalised £100 million of this debt. This is money he would only get back if he sold the club (and for a decent price)."
Yeah we still have £300m approx from about £850m the glazers used to buy the club secured against the club. Got the best marketing team going though, debt isn't a worry at all. QPR on the other hand, they're goosed.
I work with one of the guys that used to own QPR, there is a lot more to that story than meets the eye. There is a film all about it on netficks called 4 year plan, it's an entertaining watch.
Is that lot more to do with the guys who owned it before Fernandez? He's spent like a stupid idiot and they're nowhere near PL level after all the money he's put in.
Debt had to be considered as a percentage of turn over and value. Man Utd don't need worry about debts worth more than the value of Newcastle and Sunderland combined.
As long as he gives his all, and plays as well as last year I couldn't care less Football is fickle these days. Just perform on the pitch and give everything.
