Spend some time in running a football club PMG. Spend your business knowledge with a true passion of the club. I can recommend it
There are very few football club owners with a specialist knowledge in the development of property or more specifically, the development of stadia. As it happens FSG is one of them.
Unless you're going to put your hand up, there's nobody here with specialist knowledge of running a football club. What I do have is decades (ok, more than I want to say) of experience in development, design and construction and I have been prepared to share my knowledge with the fans and club (which the club were seemingly prepared to accept) particularly with regard to the stadium over the last decade and more since 2004 (when I returned from a spell overseas) at no cost to anyone but myself.
I imagine like most people here, I have supported the club all my life with everything that has happened in between, standing on the kop home and away as a lad. Like my dad before me and his dad. So if you're accusing me of lack of passion - as a fellow supporter, your attitude stinks.
Arsenal secured funding for the Emirates with a 14 year commercial loan that was replaced with long term bonds and a 15 year sponsorship deal with Emirates.
Everton are looking to fund their Stadium with a loan from the council over 20 years.
Wembley was funded with a series of 10 year debentures which were then converted to a loan.
So please explain why the Main Stand has to paid off ASAP.
In short (you don't read the long answers), it doesn't but it will cost you more if it isn't.
