No one will want to inherit a loss making club and continue to fund it out of their personal income.

I agree with you there, the Arsenal board do seem to have no desire to take the club into massive debt and do seem very football savie, even Lady Bracewell-Smyth fancy pants or whatever her name is.
Things did look a bit dodgy when Wengers mate Davd Dein left but it seems to have settled down now. Good luck to em i say.
City`s owners do seem to be in it for the long haul, i mean the guy Mansour is worth at least £15 Billion and his family is worth over £500 Billion, he even made ~£1.5 Billion investing in Barclays shares during the `crisis`. Should pay the wages for a few years
The amounts we relate too are chicken feed for them, and they`ve still got plenty of that black sticky stuff under there feet.

The bit that made me laugh most about the plate ad was the price, only £19.76, hahaha classic.

I loved the "Free Stephen Ireland party wig" bit
Plus we are a `dog`s dinner of a club`, and we know it, just it`s now a very well fed dog.....
