Manly up for sale

[Madge]

According to Danny Weidler, 9 news saying that the Penn house are prepared to sell the club, worth around 10-12million. Player agents supposedly aware and are trying to find buyers for their players when they can.

So would the players contracts be voided with the club being sold as there are new owners or would they have the right to move on in these circumstances if they wanted ?

 

[Newtown]

@Madge How about we do to them what they did to North Sydney. Combine, leave and let them flounder.

 

[WT2K]

Relocate them to Perth!

 

[Bones]

Would love to know what they have that’s worth $10-12M.

I’ll sell you my NRL club that loses money every year, has shit training and playing facilities that we pay too much rent for, and struggles for support for $10M. I also have some magic beans you might be interested in.

New Zealand, or Perth

Just the license. The club itself is worth zero.

Would be great to see a group of wests fans buy them just to close them down.

That’s the thing. To keep in it’s current state it’s worth nothing, so unless you’re a mad Manly fan and have millions to flush down the toilet why would you buy it?

I’m sure there are a few people in Perth or Brisbane that might be interested but would they sell the License to someone who is going to move it elsewhere? That could be the only option.

I've got a few bob, I'll buy them!

Yup. Totally agree. The end is close for Manly and I'll gladly dance on that smelly grave

 

[Tigerdave]

wow

maybe we could all chip in? 🙂

 

[Geo]

Nope...KICK EM OUT..

 

[jadtiger]

I am half expecting tony abbott to make an announcement today that if he is reelected he will save the eagles when he is prime minister.Personally i hope 2019 is the end of both.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

$12m for what? The badge on the jersey?

 

[Masterton]

The Roosters should be in the market for a reserve grade team.

Maybe Benny would like to buy them.

Or better still buy them to play for the Magpies team in Canterbury Cup 😈

I like the idea of Ashfield buying the licence - move all the better players i.e Tribos etc to Wests Tigers. The rest to Canterbury Cup - the trickle down effect would mean that we could move our Ron Massey squad across to play as Manly in the NRL. They could become perennial wooden spooners.
