Breaking - Elon Musk says he will not buy Manchester United

He would be a terrible owner. Way too eccentric and way too much distraction the club doesn’t need right now.

Would he though? He'd be obsessed about winning things, would likely completely revamp the scouting and analytics department with AI and physicists. We would probably be at the forefront of the sport technology revolution. He'd hire ruthless and highly skilled people into management roles, and probably obsess about how to make us win everything so that he could brag about having saved the club and being the best owner in football.

While I personally would prefer Ratcliffe, I don't think he would be bad for the club.

:lol: :lol:

Its like the Transfer thread.

Caftard: We are a joke. We need players. WTF are they? Murtough has to go.

United linked with Player XXXX

Caftard 2: Him? He's feckin' useless.
Caftard 3: He's fat
Caftard 4: Dun wan.
 
I was completely thinking it was a joke until I remembered this unusual options activity a few days ago. Now I am beginning to think this might be real.



Fascinating. Definitely something going on.
 
Don't understand a thread for nonsense Elon Musk says. His twitter and social media is a joke/meme place. Not to be taken seriously.
 
Will United have to respond about whether there's any truth in this?
 
I'm not concerned with the mistakes or tombstones he's left in his wake. If you live life the right way you're gonna have enemies, triumphs, and failures. People judge, but most cannot see what is important and get hung up on nonsense.

Dear God I just used 20% of my post allowance on a pipe dream thread. What is wrong with me.
You said on all his projects that he gets the best people to run things, and backs then up. The Hyperloop shows this statement to be false.

As has been pointed out numerous times, he can't actually joke like that about a public listed company.

Someone has to, the stock market will react to these news in some way or another.
 
He will buy United like he bought twitter..

mans a wet blanket

Elon if you're reading this, this guy is a Chelsea fan, all Man United fans love you, just don't sign up and look in the general, as the love we have for you is cringe, we've never said a bad word about you big Musk.

P.s I'm going to sell my Polestar, I always knew I made the wrong decision.

P.p.s Twitter is poop.
 
Also if he was really serious and not shit posting why do it at the end of the transfer window , when we won't able to do jackshit.
 
Someone else. Insider or a guy happened hearing a chat.

But what I suggest earlier as a 1% possibility. In his billionaire/private equity circle, maybe he may have heard that the Glazers are shopping United around. That's why this joke suddenly popped out of his head.

Yeah trying to bring in players just cause they are better than McFred isn’t the way to go. You need the right players for the future. We have done feck all to build for the future and hope at least we start doing it right way from now on.

Same with the owners. Getting someone in just to get rid of the Glazers isn’t going to work. You need the right owner with plenty of money to revamp us. Musk is not that person. He has his hand in way too many pots already. I appreciate what he is doing for the world but he will not be a good owner for us.

If so, he needs to tweet a new msg to clear it before the market open. Several hours left to see if it’s a joke or not.

It would be so United though to be owned by Elon.

Once he sees the attention his dumb joke got he may actually do it :lol:
 
At this point, i dont know whos becoming the biggest jokes now, Us or Barca. Such the state i feel about this club.
 
This has as much chance of happening as me marrying Margot Robbie.
 
His most retweeted tweet since 11 July. And it's only been 2 hours. He loves attention. Maybe he will buy us just to get more retweets

Barca are signing the likes of Lewandowski, Raphina and Kounde. We are going for Arnautovic, Vardy and Rabiot
 
Well. This might have more chance to happen than signing FDJ. :lol:
ah yeah thats true. The most eventful transfer in Manchester Uniteds history. We have had deferred wages, levers and all sorts.
 
If he does buy the club I hope he brings in Florentino Perez as director of football

At this rate, Beavis and Butthead could be director of football and do a better job than John Murtough.
