    Almost certainly not true, but...

    As posted on another forum:

    Got sent this by a mate (he's a Blackburn fan, so not really bothered about us or the mancs). Undoubtedly nonsense but we can hope...

    **********************

    A person I am told who is normally in the know for all things Man Utd has posted the following revalations about the red half of Manchester. Very interesting if true.

    Vidic isn't injured, he is in fact in the process of being sold to either AC Milan or Barcelona for £55 million and that is the reason he has been withdrawn "injured" for two weeks.
    He has caved in to pressure from his missus and although United have offered to up his salary by £30K he has said no.
    He is apparently due to be sold as soon as we secure his replacement, an as yet unnamed 6'4 Dutch centre half...

    It gets worse...

    We were 60 days from administration, £60 million of the £80 million we got for Ronnie has gone on the debt, up to 15000 ST holders haven't renewed and although there is a 20,000 waiting list, very few have taken up the offer of an ST.
    Fergie has been given the job of releasing assets for top price (Vidic, Ronaldo etc) and to win the league using youth players and/or cheap acquisitions and United are in the process of massive cost cutting to pay off sums we currently can't afford.
    He is also being pressured to buy players on the cheap now and sell at profit in the coming years for the forseeable future to service the repayments on the debt.

      Alas, as much as I'd like to believe, I just can't see it.

      60 days from administration, I don't buy it. The Manchester United brand would be bought by someone with deep pockets given the opportunity of a fire sale.

          If they're in that state then where are we heading?

            If they got offered £55m for Vidic, Fergie would snap their hands off.

              There is no way someone is daft enough to pay that sort of money for Vidic.

                I don't want Vidic to leave united, him versus torres is no contest

                  £55M for a central defender! What would Paul Merson have to say about that?
                  Jellyfish are 97% water or something, so how much are they doing? Just give them another 3% and make them water. It's more useful

                      Complete bollocks. If United were into administration then I'm sure we'd not be far or in a worse situation ourselves.

                        We do have a lot quite a bit less debt than they have.

                          Yep but they can service them 2 times over whilst I'm not sure we can easily service ours.

                            What's their debt, something like £800 million i believe?? Ours is £290 million, decreasing to £230 million shortly...even with United's larger income, there is no way we are in a worse state than them Freddie.

                              I don't think their debt is £800m mate. That's a load of money, a lot more than the GDP of some entire countries.
