United is too big for Sir Jim, and his latest quotes are evidence of that. We are not a big toy for you to enjoy, sir.
Club Sale | It’s done!

Not at all sure that a 70 year old man is legally allowed to refer to his friends as “the lads”.
Can you even picture him in a pub?
I like that he uses the word heresy as he's taking on a moral perspective here. So it can't just be business as usual (which all the rest of the quotes suggest). If you are a lifelong United fan, from the City, you cannot possibly think buying the club and not addressing the core issues would be acceptable. And if you cannot afford to do so, the right thing would be not to try to acquire the club, contrary to the cnuts currently in control of it. I do hope those most optimistic posters here on his side are correct in their predictions that "bringing the Manchester back into Manchester United" means bringing the club back to where it belongs, in the short-term as well as the long-term. And I hope there is a clear sensible succession plan with non-cnuts involved. All of which I find unlikely. Which is not to say the Qatar option is better. It's a shit show all around.
In Spoons with Tim Martin and James Dyson?
Apparently Jassim's son but can't check as his account is private:
I thought that itself was sarcasm since so many are happy for us to be an oil state's playthingI can't even come up with a sarcastic response that would do justice
Thought his last comments were just before the process started tbh.
Don't forget Boris and Nigel
Same. Nothing I wrote could top it though.
Does your username stand for "Jim and Glazer United"
I'd say both sides know exactly what is going on or they know nothing. And the sale is imminent or there isn't going to be a sale. But I'm only 50% certain of that.
Of course not. It's the car you see broke down at the side of the road.
The latter has just had his bank account closed, so he will not be able to buy any rounds!
I translated it and Jassim's son said "Cant believe we gave him the number 7. I suppose that's use done for the summer"Apparently Jassim's son but can't check as his account is private:
Jim'll fix it.
Hi Glazers, just wanted to record this good bye. Before working at your United Megastore I had a debt. After working at your Megastore I now have two debts, student loan and a debt i owe to my psychologist because working for you is such a miserable experience. Ps: you look like a yeti and you smell like shit.
Glazers melting in the dead of night
He strikes me as the sort of cnut who has had a brick for brick replica of the boozer his grandad used to drink in his back garden, except the “lads” are Elton John, Hugh Grant, Bill Beaumont and Nigel Mansell. Though, tbf, they all strike me as that sort of cnut.
The thing about Ratcliffe is he's very tall.
Leveraged
He can't talk because he signed a NDA. Then talks about meeting Glazers a few times, about Old Trafford future naming rights. He can go to the pub and meet Richard Arnold and the lads when this is over.
Talk about fatigue, why is he choosing to chat now? Strange timing, I think this is more talk to get fans on side. He will be no different to the selfish cnuts in charge, promising nothing. Should be a politician Jim Rat.

Because he couldn’t give a shit anymore as he knows he isn’t buying us. Probably couldn’t give two hoots what the Glazers think now.
OutAdios

Short arms, long pockets.
Date of takeover confirmation?
Sir Jim speaks of owning United as a hobby, as something he deserves after making his money. So that's why he is not bidding too much. If he ended his comment with words to the effect that "but I am serious in putting in the necessary investments to make it the best club in the world", I would be fine. He did not. I really hope this is a concession that his bid has been rejected. So half-hearted and non-commital. Go away. You will not be better than the Glazers.
Apparently Jassim's son but can't check as his account is private:
That's Mason Mount you muppet! Duh!
A very seductive Mason Mount, no less.
I like the fact that mount is sat on the dudes rug.
Just missing a white russian and a bit of creedance.

Jassim has adopted him, he's now Al-Mason Al-Thani.
Tbh, now I don't care who will be the new owner, as long as the Glazers can feck off.
If you guys have seen the United View interview with David Hellier, one of the Bloomberg writers who broke the new of JS is confident of winning, I believe he got the source from either Raine or qatar or both since news get out of bloomberg need 2 source to confirm the validity.
1. he said the Sir jim bid has been dead in the water which we already know and he said would be suprised if he wins unless he can find a new partner with a restructure bid. If Hellier's source is from Raine, which means sir jim's bid has been heavily studied and finally deemed as invalid by the Raine.
2. Hellier said the offer from SJ is actually $5B not £5B. He don't post the number in the article because he couldn't find a second source to confirm it.
the 2 point is actually quite worrying because this figure simply imho won't be accepted the greedy Glazers. It may explain why the hold up because there is only 2 offer 1 is deemed as legally impossible and 1 is far from acceptable.
