With today’s announcement of £20m available in loans to Scottish Premiership, this could be perfect timing for a group such as the Foundation to step up and offer to cover the repayments of the amount United would need to see them through the season, in return for a seat on the board. Would Mr O would be agreeable to something like that given the financial crisis? Would the Foundation be willing to take on something like this? Could be a win win for everyone connected with the club, United get a much needed cash injection, the Foundation could see a massive increase in uptake with membership and alsoget the seat on the board they crave and the supporters affiliated to the Foundation pick up the tab. Or is this too fantastical an idea?
