Oh dear. If the court proves us to not be able to pay then were screwed and the football club no longer exists possibly

Please invest someone!

[Muniflex]

Oh dear!

I got a couple of quid if that helps?

I might go to college in near there.

[Grainger@CUFC]

If the petition goes through, you'll be kicked out of the league won't you? Gutted if that happens like, we'll lose 3 points :(
Man it's awful when this happens to teams. Good luck in finding an investor!

i hear john mitchell is fronting a consortium for your lot

bad news this is the man who played a part in the 55 charges against us
and made illegal payments to agents

made 13 million pound from transfers and put some of it in his pocket

he should be banned from football!

[brandon]

Don't worry, you'll be ok.

[PlKEY-ARMY]

4million isnt that bad? or is it? how much you earning/losng annually?
i know gillingham are 13million in debt but coventry are like 30+million in debt?

We are £30 million in debt.

Bournemouth should be O.K. anyway.

its funny to see clubs die out

[Jordie]

yeah its brilliant is it:rolleyes:

the so called ' smaller clubs ' are the ones with the real fans

and deserve better than the way the boards just let the clubs run into millions of debt.

plus id prefer to go somewhere on a saturday where the smaller clubs fans actually help their side by being vocal unlike the prems whos grounds are like a funeral parlour

[Geraint]

its funny to see clubs die out

It's funny to see a club with millions and millions of money and a massive fan base, in a ground that can hold nearly 80,000, have no atmosphere. A team with 10,000 true supporters could make more noise than half of these premier league teams. Football isn't always about money. Football is about showing love and passion for that team that you travel hours and hours for and still see them get beat 5-0. I bet none of the Manchester United "supporters" know what it takes to support a team in the lower divisions. You have to support your team through thick and thin but people will do it just to see a couple of men kick a ball around a field. Man United's "thin" comes when they finish 3rd in the league. I would rather see a load of men run around a field, in S****horpe (no offence), in pouring down rain and still know that you're going to get relegated at the end of it.

Well said, though I've supported Arsenal since I was 3, My dad supports Aston Villa.
When Arsenal were coming in the bottom of the table, I supported them.

Fair play to you mate supporting a lower league team, it takes balls.

[Minstrels]

It's funny to see no one likes you on this forum bar the odd United fan who is also new to the forum.
It's funny to see that United are in debt.
It's funny to see you are probably from Kent and haven't been to Salford.
It will be be funny to see you claim you hold a season ticket at Old Trafford.

You played 3 games and had 2 points. That's a real low, isn't it. If you won 2 points from 10 games, then fair enough but not 3.

I didnt say they were battling Relegation, I meant to say the bottom half of the table, learn to understand
mid 90's.
94-95.
They finished like 12th-13th.

[Minstrels]

Lmao, not even from Salford -waits for the 'YEH I AM BUT I MUVED!!'-
Glory supporter, should be supporting Leicester.

[UnitedRoad]

actually it is for a big club, i thought we was out of the title race already

your 13 so how would you have watched them then?

actually my dad was the glory supporter and he made me a united fan from birth. i have never lived in salford. this doesnt make me a glory supporter :eusa_wall

[Jordie]

back onto bournemouth

their local paper says they will be in administration in the next 24 hours
which will mean definete relegation

really feel for them
hope they pull threw

[Minstrels]

actually my dad was the glory supporter and he made me a united fan from birth. i have never lived in salford. this doesnt make me a glory supporter :eusa_wall
Could have gone against him and supported Leicester.

They have, the BBC say.

[Jordie]

feel for them:(

know what its like been threw it 3 times

i can only see relegation for them on the horizon now and a loss against us on saturday may just be the end of the road for them.

[UnitedRoad]

Could have gone against him and supported Leicester.
why would i do that?

[Minstrels]

why would i do that?
So you can watch your club week in week out, so you can say 'Yes I support my local team', so you can say your not a glory supporter.

[skins]

We can see you sneaking out! We can see you sneaking out!

That would be gutting.

What club would you support if you did die?

[PaulMacC]

your 13 so how would you have watched them then?

actually my dad was the glory supporter and he made me a united fan from birth. i have never lived in salford. this doesnt make me a glory supporter :eusa_wall

Im not 13.

[UnitedRoad]

So you can watch your club week in week out, so you can say 'Yes I support my local team', so you can say your not a glory supporter.
but when i was 1 my dad made me support man united.. he got me a man united shirt at the age of 2 which i still have. i think i would rather support who my family does instead of local team. all my family are united supporters and i would be the only leicester fan :eusa_walland just because someone lives outside of salford doesnt mean your a glory grabber you muppet.

So if I were to support let's say... Real Madrid? I wouldn't be a glory grabber?

[UnitedRoad]

yeh you would be. but if your family was real madrid supporters and you supported madrid from birth you wouldnt be.

pretty simple, my dad supports them and he made me a united fan from birth.

Still could have changed team.

why? you think i am going to support my local team instead of who my family supports?

[Minstrels]

why? you think i am going to support my local team instead of who my family supports?
Why not?

[UnitedRoad]

because im not a muppet and will always follow my family instead of supporting a team just because i live there. also i have like 2 at the time i got my first united shirt. do you think i knew anything about football then?

[Minstrels]

because im not a muppet and will always follow my family instead of supporting a team just because i live there. also i have like 2 at the time i got my first united shirt. do you think i knew anything about football then?
You still know nothing about football.

i do actually

Who would that be, AC Milan, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Real Madrid???? Do share.

Your really not funny, how old are you, 10?

[UnitedRoad]

16 mate

[Geraint]

If you went to most home game we wouldn't be saying that your a glory hunter.

[Minstrels]

You really don't act your age. :)

[UnitedRoad]

you have no idea how hard it is to get tickets for united home games. i went lisbon at home in the champions league this year and that is it. the only good way of getting tickets for games at old trafford is by getting membership to manutd.com and using the viagogo ticket exchange and it still is pretty hard for me to get 3 tickets. its a lot easier for smaller teams to get tickets for games because they have a smaller fan base.
i do go to a lot of away games if they are in the midlands and i went to the JJB last season.

Shall I tell you the ticket line number? Might help if you knew that eh?

i know it its just solid to get them because they always go quickly. so i use the marketplace

[Minstrels]

Even I know that's utter rubbish, two of my friends go to every home game, they don't hold a season ticket because the preorder line is 17 years or something silly, they buy tickets on the day. :rolleyes:

Next excuse please.

[Geraint]

Buy a season ticket, then. If you supported that much surely you would travel to see them every two weeks.

[UnitedRoad]

ever heard of a waiting list for season tickets? oh probably not because you have a small fanbase

[Minstrels]

Rather be Cardiff and have a small fan base with a BIG atmosphere than be you with a big fan base with a SMALL atmosphere because the 'fans' don't know the words to the songs.

[Jõnathan]

I support Hull City (partly because my Dad's from there, partly because Man United are now nothng to support since it's like following the crowd) and because I live in the North-East, I can't get to see them play.
And lol @ UnitedRoad saying that Cardiff have a tiny fanbase just because MUFC have like 20 billion supporters

[Geraint]

Cardiff's fanbase isn't actually that small. It might be small compared to premier league teams but compared to other teams it's quite big.

I think you didn't saw the sarcasm in that post Greco.
He didn't mean it - he just implied it.
BlueMoon: I don't think Swansea or Wrexham fans would be happy with what you just said LOL

[Geraint]

Well, not really. Rugby is the main sport in Wales and the people who live in West Wales and have no brains at all, support the Jacks. In Mid Wales, some people support Hereford as it is their nearest team. Up North they support Wrexham or Liverpool.

I like Cardiff more, I watched 'em play Burnley at Turf Moor with some mates, they played some good football did Cardiff, dare I say better than Fulhams. :P

Edit for above: But the people from the North are the scouse rejects. xD

[Geraint]

Because there's 3 football team in Wales and we're in the Championship. Good logic there mate.

Was the score 3-3 by any chance? Wrexham supporters are actually quite loyal.

[Minstrels]

Yep, September 10th 2005, think it were 0:0 at half time... great game! :)

[Geraint]

Yep, September 10th 2005, think it were 0:0 at half time... great game! :)

I went then. I don't think it was 0-0 at half-time because I think that Burnley scored in the first minute then Cardiff equalised then Burnley scored then Cardiff equalised then Cardiff scored then they scored in the last minute.

Excuse my over use of the word "then"

I've been to a few games since then so I can't remember when the goals flew in but I can agree it was a fab game! :D
I might see if I can hook up with a ticket and go to some other game with 'em this season. :)

Might talk to 'em about that then! :)

[piddle2k6]

I will not support a team anymore (If we die). Just follow the results and such, go to the odd premier league game when theyre close, pompey, reading etc

But yer now were relegated :(

[Jordie]

why do you always think of the worst?

bournemouth will be fine..

[piddle2k6]

They will not be fine if the petition is agreed to at court, and then HM Revenue and Customs take away everything the club has. Then we have to start again as a football club from scratch, no team, no manager, no stadium, no finance nothing

[danny-dyer]

Bournemouth have gone into administration and have been docked 10 points.

[Alan_Carr]

Sorry to hear it man, its never nice to see a club go into Administration.
Good luck in the future man. :(

[bigdavecox90]

I soooo wish I had loadsa money Piddle, I would buy the club! :D

[Flamedragon3]

its funny to see clubs die out

Its funny to see clubs be bought up and taken over by someone the don't want =]

Did you know Glazer could turn Man United into a shopping center? That would be really funny, even funnier if they sold Man City stuff lol.


Piddle2k6 I hope your club gets back to normal and someone saves you before its too late :(

[PaulMacC]

Start a fund up, get everyone who likes football to donate £1.

[bigdavecox90]

Start a fund up, get everyone who likes football to donate £1.

That's a great idea. However the football club is probably worth millions.

Can you imagine if the new owners of Bournemouth were HxF members? :P

[Grainger@CUFC]

You should do what Ebbsfleet did and get everyone to put money in. They did it on this website I can't remember what it is. They have like 35,000 board members though :P

[Jordie]

carl just worries to much

their chairman has had discussions with 3 potential buyers
its on the bbc website

[PaulMacC]

Actually, just go around England and get £1 from everyone, say it's to start the club and the person who started the idea should have the club.

[bigdavecox90]

Going into administration is probably the best thing for the club, gives them a chance to rebuild everything without building up an even bigger debt.

Just a shame you've brought in 'Kwasner' to handle it all after the farce he kicked up when he was at Leeds...

By the way, do you own Dean Court?

[Andeeh]

Man bournemouth are doing so well they have been on a good run lately its a shame

and UnitedRoad tbh I dont think its funny when smaller clubs hit stages like this

Good Luck Fellow South Side!

Hmm i also think clubs in lower divisions have more true fans.
