would you not want them pay down the debt to make that 20 million in interest payment go towards a player?

Some of the current debt interest is tax deductable so it does not make financial sense to completely pay down the full debt. The brokers will look at the interest relief versus capitalisation and decide what's more beneficial to the club. Either way, the club is in a very healthy financial situaiton going forward especially if FFP is regulated properly.

The debt is well over £300 million, paying it down in a structured manner is best. Otherwise things like buying players would be an issue.

Goal.com reporting Vidal has agreed to united transfer....

helimachoptor · 14-07-2014 04:07PM

to be honest this stuff really interests me, I'd love to see a cost comparison of paying it down in one go Vs a structured pay down to see what the numbers dictate

No problem dude, Cristiano O'Queffe and David Bentley comparisons ..... Best I don't include a picture of me in this one

LandonRicketts · 14-07-2014 04:22PM

Isn't the sleeves suppose to be a lot more white than the pics posted. I know like the button a small thing but I assume you got it from yayun or macs seller?

I guess paying off 300 million would affect the value of the club straight away, paying it off over a few years only affects the value of the club in a minimal way each year.

You can accrue the expense of the loan for the year and apply it daily or weekly or monthly and pay it that way so it dosent affect the books

Like if the loan repayment for this year was 50 million they could accrue 136k every day so at the end of the year they have 50 million to pay down, rather than paying down 50 million from their account.

Acrruing it softens the blow and dilutes the effect of the payment.

Your somewhat correct!....I haven't noticed anything with the sleeves but the button is red.... Quite happy with them though, normally I spend a fortune on united between tickets and memorabilia

Not sure if posted, but LVG has given Van Persie three weeks off entirely, before reporting back for training.

Makes total sense, the lad wasn't fit to stand before LVG took him off in the Semi final

The_Kew_Tour · 14-07-2014 04:34PM

Glad to hear that about RVP

I know like myself. Especially now they change the jersey every year as opposed to the 2 year cycle they had before. Beats paying €60 in the sport shops when you can get it near identical for circa €20!

Ah I don't know what to think at this stage regarding Vidal. Part of me thinks it's just wishful thinking, and part of me thinks the club are doing their business quietly i.e. the right way. Overall I can't seem to dampen the excitement of the prospect of him playing for United though, just like I can't seem to silence the voice in my head which keeps saying "It's gonna happen, it's gonna happen."

Just one thing to take note of though; On January 20th this year BBC Sport tweeted the following:

BBC Sport wrote:

Manchester United deny that they have made a bid for Chelsea midfielder Juan Mata.

4 days later Juan Mata was a Manchester United player. So I'm just saying that although it's important not to get excited/caught up in journalists speculating/stating that a transfer is imminent, it's just as important not to read too much into official denials and refutes from the club.

Now Ed and co., hurry the fúck up and get it done!!

what is the best way to get a ticket in Ireland?

Simplest and most expensive is to get a package from a travel agent (e.g. stephens green travel, if they still exist)

Or join your local supporters club -- theyll probably have some season tickets and do bigger trips

Or join the official lottery in the central supporters club

Or just know a guy who onows a guy.

And then theres the MU ticket thread here

Lads if rvp is ment too be off for a few weeks why is he in Manchester? I'm in lanzarote at the min and there's a Dutch guy who works here and as we were watching the final last night he got a whatsapp message from a friend of his who works for klm and it was a picture of a boarding pass from rvp going from Amsterdam too Manchester ?

Because he lives in Manchester and is probably going to go home? That's what I'd do if I had three weeks off and had just spent a month in Brazil.

Bit stalky, no?

It doesnt matter where he is. He'll be chilling for three weeks before resuming training.

xtal191 · 14-07-2014 05:35PM

Eh hes prob gone home to pack for a holiday.

RobertKK · 14-07-2014 05:39PM

RVP is holidaying in Manchester, the somewhat cooler weather will be a relief.

Not having to spend £30m+ on Shaw to replace Evra will be nice too.

Sure he lives in Manchester. Pretty normal to pop home first before heading off on your holidays, no?
