Poor Mike.
I'm not bothered about him losing £200m (he's still worth over £1bn) as we'd be unlikely to see any of that money anyway. I'm sure Debenhams staff would be delighted if he took them over and they all got put on zero hour contracts and had to try and flog absolute garbage at the till to every customer...hello sir, would you like this s*** magazine or oversize calculator with your new duvet set?
I mean, they'd probably be glad the stores stayed open...
I'm of the mind that other businesses doing poorly is actually good for the likelihood of a future sale, because he might need more liquid assets from getting his money back out of NUFC.
