Cashed Out (Non-Football Assets):
Max owes £0 to Mateo for the West Didsbury loan.
Max does not own Saltney Town FC. That is owned by Two Taps Limited, a company based in South Manchester.
Saltney owes Henri's syndicate 125k for loans used to sign players.
Max owns one measly share in West Didsbury and Chorlton AFC. It's just ceremonial. Nothing to see here.
Max has a pretty decent laptop that contains certain useful spreadsheets. It never leaves his house. The one he destroyed was a decoy. Lol.
Max owns two Savile Row suits, a Bayern Munich scarf, and a framed photo of Mr. Yalley.
