If it was as simple buying shares don't you think this guy would have done this ages ago?? The fans have put together a group to try and buy every share they can get their hands on, but there aren't that many for sale.
Also btw. NFL is a completely different thing than English football, do teams get relegated in the NFL? No, you can go a whole season with out winning a game, and still compete at top level next season.
Look at Leeds and their history, next season will be their second out of the top league in England, that is what Man U supporters are worried about...
Btw. I like that Malcolm guy, hope he gets all the shares!  |
Listen he nees $1.3bil right? I KNOW for a fact that the Bucs are worth at keast half that if not more. If he REALLY want Man U he could always sell the Bucs. I would hate that because unlike Man U fan I know what he has done for my team. And I can help if soccer has stupid rules that demotes teams. I seriously doubt that will happen under Glazer. Man U has millions of fans they pay good money for Man U merhcandise and if they got demoted not only would peole not show up to game but merchandise sales will fall too.
Glazer isn't a fool. He changed the Bucs logo and colors and got the team good and guess what the Bucs went from near dead last in merchandise sales to a top 10 seller anually. Also if all he wanted to do is make moeny he culd have kept doing what the old Bucs owner was doing. He never invested in the team, the team lost a lot, the stadium was always half full and most of those people were fans of the OTHER team. Yet the Bucs were always one of the most profitable teams every year.
