Breaking - Elon Musk says he will not buy Manchester United
- Thread starter Attila
- Start date
I see we have our own resident MuskBro.
Answering the headline. No, he won't. Just like he never bought Twitter.
I cant believe there are 13 pages of discussion on this 
Theres more of a chance of FDJ joining

The biggest fewl in mancheshtuh
Why don't people actually like him?
Is it because he's a bit of a jerk, in a "successful billionaire businessman is a bit of a jerk" shocker?

Media will never stop
I disagree, they'll see it as social media engagement.
The fact that he joked about it is interesting to me. Tells me that the rumours of Glazers selling or people being interested are real..
Musk would be the least preferably of the 3 billionaires that have always made sportswashing sesne, Ratcliffe, Bezos, Musk etc, but i would still take him any day of the week.
Within two years this club would get gutted from top to bottom of its yes man, its bankers, its incompetents, 100% of the money it makes would go back in to it and maybe even more and ultimately this means player power would stop ruling the roost.
Ah one can dream. These parasites will be here forever, using us as a yearly piggy bank and loan collateral...

He's an idiot, a loser and an contemptible cretin.
He’s a kid in a wealthy man’s body. Never take anything he says seriously.
The guy gets a million messages a day to buy United, which is why he said that, he's joking we all know that. HOWEVER, I actively trade the stock market on a daily basis and here's what happened yesterday:
Man Utd get's 0 options activity because the stock never moves but yesterday lunch time it got 450k in volume on it's options:
This picture shows that someone with a lot of money thinks the stock price is going to at least $14, from the $12.63 it is now.
That's a 3500% increase in volume.
This all happened before Musk sent out that Tweet so the conclusion is that someone knows something is going on at United or Musk is manipulating the market to make some lunch money.
Thanks for clarification on this. Interesting indeed.
Elon could buy us, revamp the stadium, get bored and sell at a loss...I'm here for it!
So desperate to get rid of the Glazers.

I don't think so, it just means United are headline news everywhere and he is using that to gain clicks.
Went to bed with this on post #3, 13 pages since!
With all due respect, I doubt United is headline news in America.
I would prefer a state, like Saudi Arabia, Emirates, Dubai, Qatar, Bahrein
Whereas the Glazers are.... not losers and idiots?
Get fecked
Elon Musk buying Man United would 100% be headline news. Richest (or one of the) people in the world buys one of the biggest sports franchises in the world.
Musk's tweet about buying United is his most liked/retweeted tweet according to someone in here. It's obviously made an impact.
They're the same.
The guy couldn't even buy twitter and is online 24/7. Would be awful.
I'll just leave this here.
The outside chance of it resulting in McTominay being shot into space makes it worth it.
The first person he'll fire is our social media admin. Because there's no need of having two.
This will be a success story just like Hyperloop
He has said IT's A JOKE!
I sincerely hope you're joking. I'd rather the Glazers stay than have oil sheikhs in charge of this club. Utterly disgusting to even think about.
This is good. Joking or not, at least it brings heat on the Glazers. As I said, maybe someone else rich enough might notice.
It's true, the more discussion there is from all angles about United having new owners the better
A microphone abuser?
Do we want Musk as the owner?
Honestly, prefer Bezos.
Musk is an egomaniac, this can be good and bad.
Bad, he draws kind of circus we want rid of.
Good, he would actually invest heavily as he knows success for the club increases his global spotlight.
United need so much investment on the field and off it too. New facilities, stadium, training grounds for both men and women teams.

Said as a joke.
I doubt there is literally anyone all would agree upon to be an ideal owner. I doubt this person exists.
Thread title needs to be updated to reflect the fact he said it was a joke.
If it keeps the ownership issue in the mainstream media then I'm grateful he said this, joke or not.
