If fans are not allowed back into stadiums this season, which clubs are most likely to go bust first? Hopefully Dortmund.
It will be the smaller grass roots clubs that will suffer the most.If fans are not allowed back into stadiums this season, which clubs are most likely to go bust first? Hopefully Dortmund.
It would be terrible if BVB went bust, despite them driving a hard bargain with Sancho I think they're really good for football. They have great fans and culture around football.If fans are not allowed back into stadiums this season, which clubs are most likely to go bust first? Hopefully Dortmund.
Haha yeah I am kidding. Agree about the teams you mentioned. Maybe Chelsea too! They are doing a Leeds I tell you. I am not sure if Roman can disguise his support to comply with FFP.It would be terrible if BVB went bust, despite them driving a hard bargain with Sancho I think they're really good for football.

I wish clubs like PSG, City and any RB team would feck off.
My thoughts exactly when i seen it.Poor taste thread.
I think the likes of PSG and City are actually the ones that are least vulnerable. The sale of oil and natural gas keeps on going and Qatar and the Emirates are still embarked on their advertising campaign through sports.It would be terrible if BVB went bust, despite them driving a hard bargain with Sancho I think they're really good for football.

I guess the point I was making is, it makes sense to be financially prudent especially now. But some clubs are clearly gambling and it may not end well for them. For me, I want United to be financially prudent. We don't have state funds or a sugar-daddy fund to fall back on. So, keeping the powder dry for 1 season can reap rewards multiple times when other clubs become more desparate. I don't want any teams to go bust of course. Just having a bit of fun with Dortmund because they are also gambling in not selling Sancho. Good luck with James by the way. Seems a great player, but just a bit lacking in pace.Poor taste thread.
All professional clubs will have severe financial problems, clubs have lots of fixed liabilities that they can't reduce quickly.If fans are not allowed back into stadiums this season, which clubs are most likely to go bust first? Hopefully Dortmund.
In the end, I just hope that a proper vaccine is available to all and things can get back to normal.All professional clubs will have severe financial problems, clubs have lots of fixed liabilities that they can't reduce quickly.
If income drops substantially, as it will do all clubs will start losing bucket loads of money until they can reduce costs to match whatever income falls to. Valencia suggested revenue could fall 50% or so. That is what clubs should be planning for whilst hoping it doesn't get that bad.
I disagreeI'd have no problem with it being liverpool
I grew up in Northwich so can empathise with a small town losing a big part of their history and a club that was once embedded in the football league. A club going bust, whilst tragic at a local level, does provide an opportunity for another to take their place.It will be clubs in League 1 and 2 that go first, clubs with proud traditions and histories, loyal supporters and strong links to the community in many cases. I imagine this thread might have been created in jest to have a bit of fun imagining a Liverpool or a Dortmund going bust but the reality is we are standing on the precipice of a major destructive change to footballing landscape in England. For me it is an absolute tragedy that we are facing the potential loss of clubs that I have seen many times over the years of following a lower league team. Even worse if the Premier League clubs try to take advantage of the situation to try to insert B Teams into the league pyramid - that would seriously test my love of the sport. I hope that those with do the right thing and give a little more to those without to stave off any major destruction of our unique footballing landscape that some seem to take for granted or just don't care about football outside the razzmatazz of the Premier League/Champions League...
I thought that as soon as I saw the title. I don't want to see any clubs go bust.Poor taste thread.
