Not as rich as Michael Knighton.
United fans literally message him daily begging him to buy the club, he's just mocking them.
Thankfully there is no recent example of him saying he'll buy something and pulling out before it actually happens.
I think we are becoming biggest joke in this world.
Anyone know what Sergio Canales is up to these days?
Feels like it.
Alex Stewart (he of Curmudgeon guy on TIFO videos fame) tweeted that he thought we had evolved into a high concept shit post and I don't disagree.
It's actually amazing to see at this point. And it's just going to get worse
Next years pre season on the Moon? Would still be a better atmosphere than at the empty had 
I want to see signs with Musk's name on them at the Liverpool game.
Please, for the love of all that is holy, just fecking do it so we're rid of the Glazer parasites.
Someone on Twitter asked if he’s Twitter buying man Utd or really buying it.
I think he's heard there's space in our midfield.
It’s not happening, but it’s pretty weird people are so gung ho to get rid of the glazers but wouldn’t like this guy owning us instead
I swear he’s an engineer by background? I think he’s a bit of a silly boy online but I don’t doubt his smarts in tech and business.
Let’s get some Elon banners going at Liverpool lads
So if I’m reading this right he can’t just say this flippantly? From what I’ve read about the Twitter thing he did things right, they weren’t upfront with their data and made major business decisions without him.
Maybe he could buy the Caf instead of Twitter…Elon lad there’s a long process to get verified on here, no need to worry about that side of things!
No wonder the rumours about Felix emerged, we’re paying Atleti with Tesla shares…
Or a high concept football manager save for Elon?
I don’t think Americans are really that tuned in to this side of things tbh
Guy is a total prick BUT he brings publicity. Net net this is a positive because hopefully some actual people with money and desire to own the club go for it.
Go on then
On the same level as the Saudi's buying United for me. I'd stop supporting the club if Elon bought it.
lol! Underrated post imo
Well it's making the news.
The drama of being a United fan.
Ha!
In what universe are they on the same level?
Musk is a bit of a dildo, but he isn't evil.
He's got some proper questionable business practices in the US and ideas about how workers should work.
His family's money is also not clean but I agree he's not as BAD as the Saudis.
He did sell $7 billion worth of Tesla stock recently. Coincidence?
In truth, I feel a bit guilty about it because I like what John Murtough is doing with some background moves made in the structure and I think that in time those.moves will start to pay off but they will take a.year.or.so at least.
But also, it was funny.
People are weird mate. Wow
Goodness gracious.
It's a desperate state of affairs when I'm sat here wishing it was actually true. At least it would be better than some sports-washing regime or the Glazers.
With the amount of publicity he generates, combined with our already huge global pull he could probably even make it a worthwhile investment for himself.
Hopefully he fires Murtough into space on a Tesla.

Man utd stock drops over 2% after hours. Was the before Musk tweeted ??
I don't think there is anybody on Earth in a position to buy this club that you wouldn't be able to dig out a bucketful of stories written by people with axes to grind.
I'll settle for someone who doesn't oppress, rape and murder.
When a one line joke makes the news. It's a throw away line, i highly doubt he has even considered actually doing it.
We have to wait until the NYSE opens.
I wouldn't be surprised if he did not know we were publicly traded when he tweeted it.
Just when you wonder how we could become even more of a fecking soap opera To be fair though I’ve now seen Elon musk say more publicly about Manchester United than any of the glazer family.
