Please explain the financial system of Real Madrid and Barcelona and the reason why they are considered "too big to go down" financially even when they're still have huge debts

[@trueshadeofcrimson]

Along with Manchester United as well. They've essentially become global icons. A lot of science goes into the sport now a days so mistakes similar to Leeds virtually seem impossible to happen. Plus all these massive investors are only investing in the teams cause they know theres a guarantee to make more money.

[@TheIllustratedGame]

There's a video explaining why Man United's debt doesn't matter on the channel already.

[@peterdue7676]

Madrid have apperently equalled out their debt. And a few years back they had financial issues, but perez saved that. About the debt: Debt itself isnt a problem if you can pay it off, which they can. And about being too big to go down, both clubs are really close to their ''state'' (catalunya isnt independent but still). So if they have issues they can get help from there. Apperently madrid sold land to spain for an overprice and bought other land for underprice, but thats all romours, never seen any real news site say it

[@IamMalkavian]

the thing is even though their debt is often huge , their income is huge as well. they get regular injections from sponsorships ( take man utd's massive recent deal ) , tons in tv rights ect . They generally have decades to pay off loans , and their constant success and income allows them to keep the club running.

[@nickraoyj]

Maybe a video also to explain why RM and Barca still remain such attractive destinations despite them not actually playing in a competitive league unlike the EPL.

[@georgetware2098]

Call me dramatic, but the haunting background music stresses how money driven the game has become today

[@the_one_the_only4651]

I loved the music too. And the end was legendary by Tifo, especially following Leeds' promotion: "So Leeds United, still a big city football club of great traditions, play on in the Championship. In the Elland Road ground that they do not own, their large body of long-suffering supporters wondering how it all went so wrong, still singing of the glory days of old".

[@bianco9359]

Great video. Although when explaining how strong they were between 1965-1975, it may have helped to point out that in 10 years, they never finished outside the top 4 and were runners up 5 times in the league (often as a result of absurd decisions and/or ridiculous fixture congestion right at the end of the season.) Also they made the champions cup final in 1973 against AC Milan and that was way way waay more dodgy (seriously watch it it's unbelievable) than in 1975. I think it was proved in like 2003 that it was fixed and there was an (obviously useless) appeal for a rematch. But I'm not bitter . . Honest .

[@lewise6917]

Jon Hoff true cellino has reduced the debts by a great amount and we're looking good on the pitch too, the club is definitely making progress on and off the field

[@CB-xr1eg]

I take your points but i would like to know what happened to Cellinos promise to buy back Elland Road and maybe the Academy. Still he's on his way out now and the the team are doing well.

[@poopapapica]

Jon Hoff Sorry pal but you are way off. Cellino got lucky with Monk. First he went for 2 league 1 managers mk dons Robinson and the Bristol manager both of whom rejected us! Regards the finances he slashed operating costs by stupid things like no water in the TA pool and cutting the kitchen staff so the players had to bring packed lunches. Also the debt has increased dramatically and we are still losing around 1m per month and we owe GFH around 18m. But if you want to praise old Massimer you crack on
