Will this happen if/when we go down? Apparently we are going to lose £90m with a relegation, and it’s well documented how bad our finances are already. So will it definitely happen?
It will happen yes. However if we don’t come straight back up, I suspect the stadium will be owned by a “third party” and leased back to us as tenants, similar to Coventry with the Ricoh Arena. We simply can’t afford to pay for the stadium if we’re not a Premier League club. Can we pay the rent as a non-PL a club? I’m not sure, but let’s just say if we’re playing at Prenton Park in the foreseeable future I wouldn’t be stunned.
