Yes, they'll get a premium for their shares if Qatar's bid wins.

That’s nothing alike. Those smaller clubs are used to enhance everything back to Manchester City as feeder clubs we’ve seen them loan players and even staff for experience etc
Nice wasn’t bought to be a feeder club they’re currently his biggest footballing asset it’s a completely different situation

I’m really not sure Jim buys the rest of the shares since the only reason he’s paying Glazers so much is because he only wants 51 percent.
Look, we don’t know what we’re talking about here but I can’t see how there’s a way to get the bid through without the rest of the shareholders getting paid one way or another.
Its going to be yet another disasterous summer because of ownership uncertainty . Full expect yet another CL group stage exit
Puts any questions of Jassim not being state backed to bed so.
Yeah other clubs are crapping themselves,mind you City & Newcastle can stop being total hypocrites straight away
RIP INEOS
*unzips for the 124662457544 time*
Also why the hell is the PSG president doing the talks? Can Jassim do anything? Will he call the PSG president every time a decision on United would be made?
This makes the Qatar bid seem a lot more serious
Basically saying that Glazers want to sell to Qatar
He's just a private investor lads, it's fine.
The Glazers are fecking shameless. Looks like it’s Qatar in the lead now
Clearly state backed. When a tedious dramas this all is. I'm starting to believe Qatar's got this.
Hasn't that been clear for a while? They would've accepted the much higher bid according to the reports weeks ago if it weren't the case.

To be fair if it’s a state bid then SJ is just a puppet so why would he have to be persuaded? Just have Qatar tell him
Find it hard to believe the Glazers would call him. If true then it seems they are just holding out for more money from them
To me yes. Not to most on here.
I can't read the article but I don't think there's anything concrete to substantiate it? Just the Athletic trying to associate the Qatar bid with failure.
Share price on the up.
Share price on the up.
The Qatari are taking the gloves off. The Emir is stepping in. INEOS are finished.
Today, at least.

If you can’t read it then how can you say that?
Does seem like once Qatar get a PL club (probably Liverpool in 2024) that they will just slowly feck off PSG
This is huge. Glazers want to sell to Qatar. Just a little bit more money does it i think.
So the glazers want the Qatari money, just as much as possible. Hurry up you damn leeches and sell.
I don’t think there’s anything clear from that. Seem like the Glazers using someone that presumably knows SJ to lean on him because that’s the direction they’d prefer, or a better bid from SJ encourages a higher bid from Ratcliffe.
It also presumably helps both sides to have an advisor that’s done it all before.
That said, it obviously wouldn’t be surprising if it were state backed.
Other PL clubs can feck off. All is well in the PL so long as United are not at the top then?
Yes they're already trying to sell off upto 15%
I’ve bothered to read the details and not just headlines
To be fair the CL aspect has nothing to do with the FA. It’s a UEFA rule that has no bearing on FA allowing the takeover. It’s simply up to UEFA to decide if both can play in CL or not
Also, even though it probably is, I’m not sure how Glazers ‘asking Al-Khalaifi to ask Jassim to increase his bid’ is now ‘proof that it’s a state bid’. It’s proof that it’s Jassim’s bid if anything.
There’s no way they can stop it if it’s actually happening. However it has often been one rule for us, another for the rest in the past. Rooney getting banned for swearing and him and scholes getting banned for red cards in pre season too
Congratulations.
Commiserations to Ratcliffe. You played a good hand but in the end you’re just not big enough.
