Yep. Apparently you don't need money, just a friendly bank manager. In fact you don't even have to pay the loan back yourself, you make the club pay it back! (Yes, I'm talking mainly about the Man Ure and Liverpoool deals - http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_...033194,00.html). How, in a sane world, is that possible?

So, back to the thread title. Does anyone have a spare couple of hundred million or so that they can lend to a football club so that I can, err, basically get it for free? Thanks in advance.

can you check that link... not working here

Fixed. Apparently the forum software automatically puts "URL" tags around links, but didn't know that the ")" was not part of the URL...

I've got a few Fantasy Football teams you can buy.
