Report: Glazer family $1.6 billion in debt
http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5259694
All the extra debt comes after the Glazers borrowed extensively against their shopping mall business in the United States. The extent of the debt could fuel a further revolt by a group of United fans who oppose the Glazers' ownership. The Glazers took over United in 2005 in a leveraged buyout worth $1.4 billion. The BBC said it saw mortgage documents showing the Glazers have borrowed $570 million against shopping malls owned by their company First Allied Corporation. That's in addition to $1 billion in debts tied to Manchester United and $95 million to the Buccaneers. The Buccaneers released a statement Monday trying to reassure their fans that the team is not in financial trouble. |

The Glazer family of sports tycoons bought United for about 790 million pounds in 2005 against a wave of opposition from fans. The club's debts have since swelled to about 716.5 million pounds.
