When we’re turning to Bridal mags for our Utd news you know things’ve gotten out of hand….
But those limits would be less than a private interest (the Glazers) whose primary motive is profit, as opposed to a putative state interest whose primary motive is speculated to be reputational.
Not at all surprising - this has looked inevitable for a while. The club needs to make a public statement asap calling an end to the strategic process.
feck me Croads I don’t think I’ve ever seen you have a go at anyone before! Go on lad!
I am genuinely feeling absolutely pig sick as have a horrible feeling this will be corroborated by top sources. Haven't got any time for anyone who would rather Glazers stay than Qatar
In all honesty I’m not sure anyone on here cares as much about Utd as you do mate, and I know that you get properly invested with it all.
Try not to let it get you down too much as it’s only football at the end of the day.
Maybe there’s a lower league / local team you can follow as well to give you a break from all the Utd negativity mate? Any team’d be lucky to have a fan with your energy buddy.
Cheers appreciate the kind words and will carry on following my local team who are actually doing quite well at the moment. They are called Droitwich Spa FC you may have heard of them.
Nice mate, who’s the team / what league are they in?
I really hope all this latest news is just some idiots looking for cheap clicks and views because I honestly can't stand the thought of glaziers being here any longer, this club is going to go downhill badly if the glaziers actually think they are going to get this reported 10 billion they are sniffing after. The club is struggling these days even with small loan deals nevermind competing for the big names in Europe, I honestly don't know how things will go if the glaziers don't leave ASAP, not very well I would imagine!!!
Midland Football League Division 1 and are currently 3rd just 3 points off the top
Don't worry he has company in @bosnian_red and let’s not forget @Fridge chutney with a bit of @Pes6Monster thrown in as well
We need some balanced thinking in this discussion that know their numbers like woziak or putzmcgee123. A,so where Messier1994?
Another thing that is heeded is Neil Custis reaffirming.

I know my numbers enough to tell you they need to sell.
But if we're talking 2025, they can still cling on and squeeze every last bit of cash out of the club before discarding it as a used toy for the next owner to fix.
(To add) If the article is legit, the Glazers are speculating the interest rate environment will materially change by 2025 (lower interest rates = better valuation especially for indebted companies like United because funding is cheaper). But it's also dumbass thinking with no risk assessment because it can easily got tits up.
Football might grow as a sport but if we keep getting left behind, we won't get to share the spoils the same way we (disproportionately) did under Fergie. I've been asked by my (much younger) brother on several occasions which one do I support Ronaldo or Messi. Each time I answer United but anyone who's not deluded can see where things are going and we're getting left behind because we won't be able to afford (or create) the next superstars.
This is vulture capitalism of the style most private equity firms would have in their hall of fame.
Do you think the 92 Foundation need to come in higher by another £500 million or so?
Fecking greedy scum.
The sale price is the one thing no one in the industry is able to gauge because the Glazers are so slimy and greedy.
At this point, I cannot see how they stay long-term in a financial perspective but these clowns have bewildered much smarter and better connected people than me, so who the heck knows.
The jokes about Succession have been present since the start of the sale but I really think they reflect a lot of this greedy family's dynamics.
Sir Alex must speak up on this abomination.
I for one am relieved it's not going to be Qatar.
Would rather see the club relegated and it’s value sliced in half than those scum get a sale with such an inflated fee
Scorched fecking earth to burn the leeches off

As a long time overseas fan who left the UK over 50 years ago, this has just crushed my interest.
I’ve said it previously, Man Utd Shirts being worn here in Australia has fallen dramatically and it certainly won’t get any better. The Glazers are absolutely the worst type of owners any sporting club could have, let alone what was once by any measure the biggest club in the world.
For me at least it’s just back to looking up the result with a lot less interest, won’t be streaming any soccer so a loss for that business. Terrible news and a kick in the guts to millions all over the world.

Quite frankly that's better than nothing,mind you if that Nick Harris is a good journo then it's academic as sale is over

Some of these are on my ignore list - one who questioned the authenticity of fans not from Manchester and failed epically trying to backtrack, recently mentioned he is “not a WUM”; and the other up until this summer was winding other fans up spamming the transfer pages with transfer activity from Stevenage FC.
They would have known the cnuts wanted more or less double what both were offering before now.
How will they get 10B if they run the club to the ground
That's a lot of words just to state you are only in it for the glory. We used to have a phrase for those kind of fans
Yeah share price will drop through the floor after Labor Day. Absolutely shite feeling knowing we won't have the recruitment team to help Erik under these leeches. No chance of spending the money required to compete for players either.

They're banking on a new Super League, this time bankrolled by the Saudi project.
In response to the post you quoted, i want what's best for United and in my opinion that doesn't involve becoming a sportswashing project. That is a dealbreaker for me, despite how horrible and inept the Glazers are. I hope they leave, but not for state ownership.
Overall i just find the situation United are in disheartening and troublesome.
More to football and sport than just winning everything.
I'm not 12 and can look deeper than just winning every single game as my source of pride and happiness in football.
Don't get why people losing their shit over a unreliable source when Ben Jacobs has come out and said both bidders have not been informed of a no sale.
I'm sure the glazers wouldn't be telling the mail, before they inform the actual bidders

Sport is about achievement. Which is much more than simply "winning".
At this point, I think relegation for this club will be a win win situation for all types of supporters. Once relegated, the Glazers can finally feck off and the top reds can continue rambling about the dark days and supporting the community.
Ya glazer in ….love our wheelin dealin the last 2 weeks
Using references from The Godfather as metaphors, I asked myself for a while whether the Glazers are more like Jack Woltz (the old and stubborn rich man in need of being given one offer that he can't refuse in order to yield) or like Moe Greene (the man who does not taking offers out of arrogance and spite, and yet will have to be pushed out by a very radical action as the price of being totally unreasonable) instead. The Glazers (or rather Joel and Avram) have clearly become Moe Greene metaphorically.

So, who’s Al Neri…?
Yeah and I feel awful agreeing with you
What a bunch of idiots. No chance in hell they will ever get £10 billion. In fact, with the way they run the club Qatar's offer was probably the high point.
I've always thought it will have to take a Chelsea-style government intervention to get the bastards out of here and it looks like that might be the case.

Government couldn't give a toss about helping
Someone needs to hire hitmen to take those motherfeckers out
Should this news be true, then every game from this weekend on should be full of protests, even if that means every game is forfeited.
They need to get the fecking message. They need to go.
