Yeah his just bidding for shiitz and giggles. No proof of funds have been shown, the glazers are taking him seriously and if they accept he’ll reply “lool, was joking” I

Not looking to make excuses, but what exactly is Emmanuel Petit's role in the Nice football organisation that makes him qualified to make an assesment on its inner workings?
What makes you so sure that Jassim will come back with a repackaged World record bid when everything pointed to this literally being a take it or leave it one
Due to the Glazers mismanaging us for YEARS, we are no longer such an attractive name to buy. Everyone expected this, but not the Glazers.
And before someone says is, yes, you absolute can extrapolate. And no, Ratcliffe's case of localladism won't make him a more competent football club owner.
I’m not sure if it being his second take it or leave it offer makes it more or less likely that there will be another.
Its a bit of a stretch to call a sports witness interview a damning report but in any case, its all irrelevant to the Glazers.
At some point it will start to become embarrassing.
its almost as if they have some cyclist man doing audits there to see what's right and what's wrong there. Oh wait...
Maybe SJR would hire Mike Tyson to unearth what's wrong with United.
It’s not really irrelevant if they are leaving £2.4bn on the table and in the hands of him.
Easy for fans to say they trust Ratcliffe to run the club but if you had £1.2bn on the table would you put that on the line and trust entirely the man who had shown no hint of football ownership talent?
It’s hardly strange. For starters the Ineos bid doesn’t involve a state, which for many is the biggest red flag of all.
Feels like we're getting closer. To what, I don't know.
Thank you for properly breaking it down into something that resembles sense, so it basically all comes down to whether all the parasites leave now with a massive lump each or the two main parasites stay on in hope they’ll get more in 3-4 years.
If there is no takeover by the summer, this forum is well in trouble.
The next round of bidding!!!
Has De Jong signed yet?
I'd be worried if he pulled a fecking Woodward and tried to do things on his own. I'm expecting he wouldn't do that with a 5bn enterprise though. Good owners make the right decisions, not run things on their own like a spoiled child. I still see his Nice experiment as a cheap way to learn the ropes.
Would you say those ropes are learnt?
We've had the final bids, now we're on the "11th hour bids" with Ineos still to submit theirs, then it'll be the "Fergie time" bids before we move on to the "last call" bids, I'm then personally really looking forward to the "last chance saloon bids", but the "ok now these really are the last bids" bids stage will suck, but at least we'll be half way through the bidding rounds by then!
What’s the role of anyone who’s made an assessment of United’s inner workings?
From Petit side I’d guess he’s speaking from observation and also people at the club based on the article but it’s probably been translated
That is very concerning and not surprising, we have been hearing this all the time.
Not necessarily, but experience can only be a good thing.
Has this been done yet? I was think with a few friends we’d buy a billboard near OT and put Welcome to Manchester with Jassims face on it. .. Will show the red side of the city is truly back in business.
So if the Glazers buy Spurs, Spurs fans have nothing to fear?
Also what about the Swiss team INEOS own that is regularly relegated? What’s the excuse there?

Yeah either offer up £6bn upfront to include clearing the debt or walk away and avoid any further embarrassment
I just spotted Ozil in Manchester airport. Make of that what you will.
This is pretty much like most of our transfer sagas.
Will drag on for a year only for everything to fall apart and everything stays as it was

This process is a carbon copy of their transfer dealings. An absolute circus.
Have faith! Nice is just a practice run, the United gig will be run much much better
I know they haven't managed the club well, but if Petit is.correct and they're undermining the new Sporting Director by offering Ramsey a extension, then that is actually a huge red flag.
This part could annoyingly apply to everything the club has done for nearly twenty years now.
Have faith! Nice is just a practice run, the United gig will be run much much better
I thought that lausanne were their practice run
I have no idea where you're going with the first part, but Lausanne have always been an up and down club, so no change there
Nice is now worth more than 3x what he paid for, so pretty decent run yeahHave faith! Nice is just a practice run, the United gig will be run much much better
A nothing update
Have faith! Nice is just a practice run, the United gig will be run much much better
He would have got my full faith IF his bid didn't involve keeping those two leeches,actually wanting to clear debt and stadium investment
Posturing to try to pressure them to wrap the deal up soon
They've been consistent with this PR tactic throughout the saga. It's to put pressure on the Glazers by courting with public opinion. Also suggests that they may not be that confident.
