any body see the Alan Sugar thing about football clubs?
Very worrying to hear some of the attitudes of people involved in the premier league football.
It ennoys me immensely to think of the amount of debts these big clubs accumulate and yet aren't accountable to anyone, even the taxman. On the other hand look at non league clubs such as Ilkeston, and other smaller clubs being punished for much smaller debts. I would love to see these bigger teams punished for their financial conduct.
I realise it would be more realistic for myself to be prosecuted for owing Inland Revenue a £1 rather than anyone challenge these big clubs arrogance and irresponsible behavior, amassing rediculous levels of debt. Since when has it been acceptable to run a buisness and not pay your bills. If it was you or I running that businesss, we'd have the book thrown at us and disqualified from running a business. Unfortunately we live in a world full of double standards. The wealthy people running these massive football clubs can seemingly delay paying their debt and do so when they please.
With Dave and Neil, we're in capable hands. And aren't we lucky to have them on board !
