Yep. Its better than a lot of owners would do but I’d still argue it’s more than fair to say they could have covered the interest themselves. I get not many owners do nowadays, but they’re benefitting hugely on the asset. The ROI has been insane growth wise the last few years.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't know the in and outs of FSG and what they can and can't do in terms of cash flow and free cash but some clubs play with the healthy debt as it's beneficial even when it isn't exactly needed. There is obviously a reason they did this, otherwise they wouldn't have.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Doesn’t really matter what their cash flow is, they could have retained at least the interest payment on the holding company if they’re not going to convert it all to equity (which would be the better and I’d argue right thing to do).

As I said I don't know the ins and outs but they must have a reason to do this otherwise they wouldn't.

Yeah a real schooling. Nothing like the schooling you got when you lied, again, about the owners taking a percentage in interest.

Oh absolutely, it’s for the main stand isn’t it? If you’re them, even if you get a favourable loan, it’s better to put it on the club rather than yourself or your holding company.

Yeah it was. The initial loans for stadium improvements etc they put on themselves but obviously this one was a much bigger project.
