Title: Bury FC and Bolton FC
Post by: Lizzie Zoom on 27 August 2019, 19:53:57
Well, none of you men have commented on this sad saga. :o :o

Great northern football clubs, with superb history and pedigree, going under......perhaps??

Now I have little interest in football, but from a commercial point of view I am very interested.  What has, and is going wrong?  How many other FC's could also go the same way? ??? ???

Is it passion, and stupidity, ignoring the need to make a profit in this business?  Will the only FC's left be the great ones, like Liverpool, Machester United, Arsenal, etc? :o :o

You have enough 'excess wealth' to save them both, Mr Beanz. :)

Ticket prices too high?

Too much commercialism?

Footballer remuneration too high?

Lets see what the gurus say.

Basically, the Premier League and Championship to a lesser extent have destroyed everything else.

Cap the wages of all, and I think we'd see more smaller clubs flourish, rather than just half a dozen super rich clubs.
