Bruce Eats Walkers! 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Friday night sees a Euromillions rollover of £110,000,000.00 (£110 million).Would you invest in the club if you won it?What would your strategy be when you took control?I would remove all the current board and relive Gunn of his duties as manager and start to compile a list of potential managers and aim for an appointment within a week. The new manager would have a substantial playing budget.I would clear the debts and sell off any land owned by the club and streamline everything in to being a Football club only.I would approach the likes of Peter Cullum, Graham Tweed, Carl Moore, Nigel Bertram and Alan Bowkett to invest in the club and even to join the board of Directors, I would also be looking for a "football man" to join the Board.I would start a massive inquest in to the clubs finances and the results (good or bad) would be made public to show the fans exactly where the money has gone. What would you do? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Evil Monkey 52 Posted May 7, 2009 Buy the club outright then immediately clear the board room, appointing Liverpool''s soon-to-be-former Chief Exec, Rick Parry and an assortment of other directors with success in finance, business and football alike. Appoint someone else as my representative and sit back and enjoy the football............... [:)]Then, if it all goes tits up, make my own team selections, sell the ground and build a casino in its place.............. [;)] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Superflash 0 Posted May 7, 2009 I''d buy out Ipswich Town from Mr.Evans, then subsequently run them into the ground and destroy them from within before wiping them from existence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Syteanric 1 Posted May 7, 2009 i''d laucnh a hostile takeover bid for the club with perhaps another businessman in league with me...once the club was purchased i would simply use my wealth to clear every penny of the debt and start again from scratch...jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephen Hawkings Football Boots 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Not to put a dampener on your plan but the odds of winning the normal lottery are 13,983,815 to 1. And for the Euro millions its:1 in 76,275,360. So if all 20,000 season ticket holders bought 3,814 tickets at £5,721 One of us would win. Unfortunately we would make a loss of £4m and thats if nobody else won.

Stephen Hawkings Football Boots 0 Posted May 7, 2009 sorry drfd i thought you actually thought you would win. Id probably do the same as you but keep £20m back to go on a nice holiday for life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joanna Grey 0 Posted May 7, 2009 I would keep £70m for myself and family but give Delia £40m on the condition that there are no changes to the Board, Management and playing staff. Why change a winning formula? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Butler 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Watch my then local teams Porto or Benfica. Having been rebuffed by Delia as being unsuitable to buy the club as I got my money gambling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Hawkings Football Boots 0 Posted May 7, 2009 id rather we just collectively invest £57 million than chance loosing it all. I bet if we bought all but 1 ticket that one would win the jackpot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stephen Hawkings Football Boots 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Thinking about it, I probably wouldnt invest in the club, I can think of many more worthy courses than paying the wages of some overpaid retards. I think anyone who does invest would have to be stupid. But dont let me put you off PC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
