Chilevision reporting anything yet?
Reuters, and Bloomberg recently, they are pretty much as reliable as they come, all things considered and the fact that the Glazers are out of road regarding debt, I strongly suspect that Sheikh Jassim and the 92 foundation have been successful in the acquisition of the club.
The Daily Star would round out the triple of worst newspaper sources to get info from.
Oh yeah they are the pits
Rio would be proven right if this story is correct? Or did I miss where he said it wasn’t happening or someone else was going to get the club?
Admire the confidence but don't know where you are getting that belief from
I was thinking the exact same!
Rio is dumb as a bag of rocks and is rarely right about anything. He’s emotional and ‘pashunate’ and people lap it up. He’s an absolute throbber. Him being wrong isn’t news. He’d need his own newspaper if it was.
This is such a depressing line
Needlessly harsh and not true.
Can someone with no regard for their own time create a timeline of every shit source claiming someone had won the race to buy United? I feel like it’s groundhog day, of the worst kind.
Glazers going no where.
Glazers going no where.
Officially into the future now
2024: Glazers announce they are staying
Literally every two pages this nonsense gets dispelled. I can’t even be bothered to explain why anymore.
2024
The previous year wasn't great. Rising inflation, children escaping terror and poverty found themselves drowning in places where they could have easily been saved, misery told a thousand times over. Another housing market crash in October led to yet another global recession. The emergency election that was called suffered database issues under the new ElonVote system, resulting in Boris Johnson being named Joint World Emperor alongside his recently discovered bastard child Donald Trump. But 2023 was nothing compared to what was coming...
None of us were prepared when the spiders took control of our satellites. We hadn't thought about securing our nuclear stockpiles from their telekinetic powers either. We stood in silence as the human race became a sub-species, forever trapped in our giant bath shaped prisons.

But of a vicious comment to make about someone, surely? Imagine acting like that much of a cnut towards someone simply because you don't like what they say.
Load of rubbish. Also he wouldn’t be wrong, he went on record with a video saying Qatar had been successful.
This is all taken from Custis, right? He talks about a date, but I don't actually see a date.
Said November. Also said that it’s United who are confident about a sale to Qatar, not the other way round.
How is the future in 2024?
Share price drops and suddenly Qatar are winning the race again.
It ain't happening boys.

It really is. His actual character comes out quite well when he’s interviewed in print. But he’s not bright, not insightful, and rarely has anything meaningful to say in the moment. He’s Captain Banter.
Did he pee in your breakfast?
I 100% watched him ‘leak’ Qatari getting the deal done a few months ago. So how would he be proven wrong if it’s true? That was my question, nothing about how intelligent he is…
Well it’s 50/50 on a sale. So he’s got an even chance of being right.
But he’s not close to the Glazers. He doesn’t know anything that’s going on at the club. He doesn’t know anyone in the management structure. Nobody involved is going to talk to an ex centre back with a podcast as they’d get locked up for insider trading.
He was one of my favourite United players. Always brilliant. But he’s an emotional populist borderline shock jock that’s only relevant when talking about players. He talks very well about the tactical Aspect of defenders. That’s it. Everything else is populist non insightful shite. It’s all so boring.
It’s not hard to divorce how I felt about him as a player that played for my club, and how he comments and presents himself once he stopped playing for us. He associates with some of the worst fringes of our ‘famous’ fan base. The lad is a clout chaser. Despite being richer than Christ.
I’ll fully concede that I really think that he’s brilliant when talking about youth development, the approach to academy players, approaches to training and pathways to success/failure. I really love hearing him talk about his past, West Ham, Leeds, and his involvement with young players and communities since then. But he does like to be heard and subsequently plays the media game well. But it’s all a bit low rent.
If all of this pump is down to an Express article regurgitating Custis, you know what they say about fools.
So we are currently in the future.
I hope two things for 2024:
1. United not being owned by the leeches in any from or amount.
2. The current Colombian president, elected by using narco’s money, to be demoted and impeached. And new elections be announced.

Can someone put up New Years lottery numbers please? And the week after...And the week after...
I know. The local Elois and the Morlocks had a ruck in my local last night.
In 2024, have they announced who's the new James Bond yet?
Rowan Atkinson
This might be referring to his second take where he said SJ was still trying to do the deal but it’s difficult with 6 different Glazers and he said on his second take that SJR was still in the race, pretty much think he’s always been Qatar in, he probably just jumped the gun 4/5 weeks ago after Darren Fletcher told him something in confidence.
Yep the article says Rio stated in his last Five You tube video that SJ and 92 Foundation would not go more than the current bid of £5.3/5.4bn however the article is saying that Rio might be wrong as the rumour currently circulating the media is that SJ/92 Foundation made a 6th bid of £6bn, hugely confusing and who knows if Custis or any other Journalist has got the absolute facts on this due to NDA’s, shares are rising sharply again however.
We’ve all been here before so until the club announce something officially I’d say believe all the rumours with a pinch of salt !
June 2024. United finish fourth on the last day of the season.
You can't 'demote' democratically elected figures on conjecture, then 'impeach' them for no valid reason. Well, unless you are or aspire to be on the 'far' side of the political spectrum, like Qatar is.
If anything, Colombia desperately needs a peaceful settlement like Northern Ireland achieved (what its majority truly want), not some TikTok populist sensation promising to 'temporally' suspend parliament to purge ' corruption'.
Way too much of such populist shite in the world lately and South America could truly do without far left or right for some time. Possibly forever.
As for Qatar, they will absolutely leech off United, using us to sell their vile dictatorship.
Dastardly Skynet cancel my broadband an replace it with a time portal, in which I can travel to a dystopian Salford and fight robot dinosaurs for sport. Glazers involved somehow. Charging twelve latinum pieces a month. The true horror is their customer service, though.
The horror.
Glazers have played it well if it's the six billion they wanted.
Ominous for United the Sheikh will have shown his hand promising the likes of debt clearance and gentrification to ape city.
Our negotiators have been led a merry dance and now the supposed saviour has overspent on us because the Glazers read him well.
It is. Absolutely, it is. But it is true.
Confused this last page as there's no media quotes, the club is provisionally being sold for around Novemeber. If it's coming from the club's side more than SJ then why is the usual Luckhurst etc not reporting it when being close to club sources ?

No idea what any of this means but...

If Rio wasn’t a former player he’d be one of those shitebag Twitter accounts that throws so much shit at the wall until it sticks and then claims they’re ITK Nostradamus.
Speaks so much rubbish

The transfers are being bought on debt, Bank of America credit Card and Amortised agreed payments, eg future agreed payments.
If SJ/92 Foundation have agreed to the sale, then they will have to pay the credit card off within the first year to move efficiently in the transfer market and more importantly pay off the £307m rumoured amortised debt which will seriously affect United’s ability to spend under the new FSP rules especially when the rule changes to 70% in 25/26 season.
