Actually a perfect business model is one which is self-sufficient and makes a profit




In football terms it would be one which makes a profit of £0 that way all the money is being put back into the club

To be fair, City share a city with one of the biggest clubs in the world. They do have a decent local support, but obviously United and Liverpool have a larger local fanbase.

FC United of Manchester?

Don't start going on about using investment for growth, that will blow their minds completely.

Football is a business same as any other, they want to see a profit the same as anybody else. If they reinvest fair enough, but they need profit to generate reserves.

I made an article on the City board about their financial accounts, to be fair to them it's looking very good. They did cut their losses by 100m in one year

Arsenal will benefit most clearly but clearly all other clubs except the two feel its important.

Wearethefamousthfc is talking bullsheit as per. Fulham sell out their 25,000 ground, QPR don't sell out their 18,000. How are QPR bigger than Fulham?

It's deluded fools like that who believe Spurs are bigger than Arsenal and Chelsea

I hate those plastic companies receiving investment from dragons den

They shouldn't be given funds to elevate themselves and should spend decades of slow growth

I'll take that bet. Even if that were the case, it would still be cheaper than Arsenals! Good old sustainability, eh?

The Beatles hadn't even met each other the last time Spúds won the league but they seem to think they're a big club despite their Victorian ground and average support.

Football is a business, not a sport. It stopped being a sport a long time ago.

No club would survive without serious investment. Including small clubs like Spurs
