United make a shed load of money which makes their debts easier to manage. At the moment I could imagine that despite their desperate measures, that they would do fine with the current debt.
But, we need an extra £300m fo the stadium. H+G combined don't have the cash for this, never mind Hicks on his own! He is hardly super rich, and lets not forget already owns the Dallas Stars ice hockey team and the Texas Rangers baseball team. Now as Hicks doesn't care about "soccer" I'm guessing as a sports fan he would be more inclined to make one of those teams successful.
As a business man I would say investment in LFC represents best value for money for Hicks. I hope he has his business head on because after an initial splurge with the cash at both teams he's since spent next to **** all.
When Hicks brought in Rodriguez on a record contract for the Rangers I'm sure many fans were conned (maybe like you) into thinking that Hicks wuld back the club all the way. Think again Bucko. He don't have the cash.
He could loan it I guess but that is simply going down the Leeds avenue and we all know what happened there.
