[Archived] Fire Sale! The Value Of What Is Left - Your Views?

[The_Expert]

Like it says in the title, what are our collective thoughts on what is left at the club that could realistically be liquidated to raise cash (for the greedy needy folk of Pune)?

I was thinking along the lines of:

Hanley - £2 to 3 Mill

Henley - £1 Mill

Lowe - £1 mill

Olsson - £500K

Steele - £500K

Other assets??? I'm presuming Ewood and Brockhall are subject to charges / committed already

I don't think there's much left

[Amo]

Marshall should fetch around £3m.

This is all part of the Venky's model. Don't panic.

[ABBEY]

should get 100 million at least for the pitch....with all that @#/? thats been on it.

[Baz]

Olsson?

Ben Marshall, Duffy, Lenighan and Grant Hanley are the only players we would get a fee for IMO

[LewisF]

Henley for 1 million?!?!?!

[K-Hod]

Henley for £1Million? Olsson went in January Think you need a new username mate!! ;-)

Add Marshall to that list.

[chor808]

How many shelfs are left over?

They are all worth nothing the lot of them, they club is worth nothing either the best thing would be to give it away.

That should do it.

[LewisF]

Marshall - 4 million

Hanley - 4 million

Duffy - 2 million

Lenihan - 800k (not fully developed yet)

Conway - 500k (getting on a bit)

[Pedro]

Hanley £4m

Marshall £3m

Chris Brown - priceless.

Don't worry expert... I made the same mistake with Olsson a few weeks back... didn't even know he'd gone to Derby! Disgraceful knowledge from us both.

[The_Expert]

Doh!! I can't believe I did that Mind you, I bet we could get a few quid for that Martin Dahlin bloke!

Expert -? NOT

[Mike Graham]

Ewood is worth sod all, real estate prices are rock bottom in that area. The only value is its use as a football ground and that has been devalued.

The only remaining value in BRFC is Brockhall; I expect the V's will sell it at some stage. PNE would probably be interested in buying it.

Your definitely not much of an expert are you

You might be right on Hanley but couldn't be more wrong on the rest.

Hanley 2 to 5 mill depending on how many and who may want him.

Marshall - as above

Duffy 1.5 to 3 mill (inc add ons)

Henley 2 to 3 hundred K (plus add ons)

Lowe 500k (plus add ons)

Steele 500k (inc add ons)

Evans 500k to 1 mill

Really can't think of any more and I doubt Ewood will ever be worth much, it would have to be sold to someone who could lease it back for use as a football ground. Brockhall has covenents on it.

So all in all there is probably just still enough worth in the playing staff, fixtures and fittings etc to cover the bank overdraft.

Congratulations you loons you really have rendered your own asset virtually worthless in just over 5 years. Got to hand it to you that's some going.

I think this might be the most depressing thread of the lot!

That's the end game.

They're obviously not interested in the football, the real estate is the only other reason to keep hold of the club.

There'll be no administration, no liquidation, they'll just shut the club down and Blackburn Rovers will cease to exist.

Then the nightmare ended and I woke up.

By the way, how many Hen houses could they fit on the land at Brockhall?

[chaddyrovers]

Duffy 5 mil

Hanley 5 mil

Marahall 3 mil

They cannot sell Brockhall I am sure there is a covenant on the place.

Marshall and Hanley are the sellable assets.

I expect to see Duffy, Henley, Williamson, Eastwood, Guthrie, Brown, Conway and Kilgallon all leave.

There are others out of contract as well so its a Blackpool scenario come pre season !

That was my understanding. I think the covenant was, if it ceases to be used as a training facility for BRFC the leasehold reverts to the Walkers trust.

Might be wrong.
