United, who were named in July by the respected American business magazine Forbes as the world’s richest sports team with a calculated wealth of £1.65bn, have slipped to second place in the brand ranking, with the Yankees’ value rated at £221m ($340m) compared to United’s estimated brand worth of £175m ($269m).
Thats because they have a fanbase of glory hunting c*nts, if they where relegated all there fans would stop supporting them.
Reason I don't like the Yankees is because people from NY come to my state to moan and whine about how Ny is so much better in MY state. Maybe it is, but I don't go to another state to brag about how my team just happens to have the most money in the league and buys all the good players. Doesn't even make much of a difference since they're going to lose to Detroit either way...:)
Its because Man U have been selling there 'soul' on the Asian market.
