Down the plughole

The shares only represent 10% of the club. You buy them all and you own 10% of the club. You have no voting rights. You get no dividend when the club makes money. The shares only take on value should the Glazers decide to sell, and even then they could sell their 90% stake and you'd still have no control over the club.

As far as investments go its as bad as you can get.

So basically it's a vanity share? To say you own part of united. Shocked their not falling in value quicker

Bang on Bobby. The only way to make money out of the deal is to trade the shares, or hope that someone attempts to takeover the entire club, which this share issue has just made it more difficult to do.

Thanks Alex. Info appreciated. The next balance sheet is the 1st of 3 to be considered by UeFA if I'm not mistaken. It''ll certainly give us an idea of the direction we're going in and what inroads we'eve started to make with the last announced losses.
