LOL, yes Slava, if they get relegated (they won't) they will dissolve, and sell the assets. There will be riots, and Bobby Moore will turn in his grave.
LOL, well a guy can dream, right!

Thing is that the situation is pretty bad there. You jest and say they'll sell all their assets...but what assets exactly? They rent the athletics bowl (where the atmosphere looks about the worst in the league). Apparently they still have a pile of debts. And you have to think they haven't got gobs of cash sitting around as they're hoping to take players on loan (because they apparently haven't got enough players on loan already?)

I realise my dislike of them colours my view. But at the same time they're really in shambles.
