The plan is to buy the club, then ground, tick.

Cambridge is set to boom in the coming decades, the footprint of the ground will be almost priceless in the years to come.

It will be like buying a two up two down in Gwydir Street in 1962. Develop the club to make it attractive to buyers. Sell at a massive profit at some point in the future. In the mean time, have a lot of fun.

Barry means to sell, he has a golden share scheme whatever that is, in the event of a sale. He will cash in. Dont be fooled, Barrys name is on the title deeds. The club does NOT own the ground, Barry and his mates do. He can sell whenever. He will walk away with the money. Leaning to one side with the weight.

He is a fan, and shareholder, so i suppose you could say that the club owns the ground.

Its not like previously, when the club had many shareholders. Now there is Barry. He does what he wants, you cant oppose it. Not like before. Is it coming together now?

When he sells it may be to someone who just wants the ground. And they will be wearing a mask, like Barry.

To take an adult look at it, there are no guarantees about anything, we all take our chances in whatever way. To expect ground security, for ever more, is a bit naive.

Cambridge United will be a honeypot for investors in the future, as it is now. Why Grovesvenor did not put the Abbey up for auction, or for general sale, god knows. Maybe they get a percentage on a resale...(wink).

Anyway, there was 5,600 fans today, subtract away support, its sub 5,000 attendance.

The Burton game got just over 5,000, with 137 Burton fans thats under 5,000. Thats very worrying. When Cambridge booms, theres no gurantee those people will watch United, after all Tottenham and Arsenal are 30 minutes away.

Cambridge is not a football town, and never will be. Highly paid leading edge employees of high tech wont be interested in a working class bumpkin team.

The business plan will work, its not in doubt. Barry will make a mint just on where the ground is. The losers will be United fans, the 2,200 hard core.

2199 now. What helps is the unexpected success of the team now.

And Barry is exposed by his lack of investment in the team. But plenty on infrastructure.

After all, even a house on Gwydir Street will be tough to sell, if its a tip. It will sell, at a lower price.
