MFC Ten Years On...

[Adi_Dem]

I am not denying that the divorce reason was a rumour.
Thats the whole point of the discussion to get to the truth.
With your thinking Rockliffe hall is worth nothing cos its currently losing money !
Asset value has little to do with current business profit or loss.
Potential for the future is what businessmen can see including future sponsorship deals and sky tv money.

No, I don’t think Rockcliffe Hall is worthless. If your assertion is though that business valuation has nothing to do with profit/loss then I’m afraid you’re simply wrong. But that wasn’t the point anyway. You posted the rumour, I explained why it was nonsense and then you started arguing otherwise. Seems like we got there in the end though!

I heard that at the time our Chairman was going through a divorce and it suited him to get relegated so the club was valued a lot less for the separation bill.
I genuinely believe that he has tried his best to get the club back where it belongs.
Wouldnt want to own a business that loses what MFC and lets face it, Hurworth Manor seem to drain away.

Ha ha, with respect that's nonsense.

I think the gap between the biggest clubs, and clubs like ours, has grown and grown since then.

At the time we were a lot more competitive, but these days we're probably back to the same financial envelope before Robson, albeit maybe not quite that acute.
