No it's not. Jim/Ineos will have majority control of the club within a couple years and 100% ownership within 3-6 years, according to reports.

Ffs we could have had a full sale tomorrow with the debt cleared, what don’t you get. City/Newcastle aren’t going go hibernate for three years without any progress, they will be that much better by then too. Ratcliffe has just jumped into bed with those parasites buying a 25% share of the club, he’s an enemy too.
 
Unbelievable that people are happy with this. Glazers are staying. As majority owners. Bloody hell.

Oh well, at least @Wumminator is happy. All gay people and migrants in UK are safe from Jassim's hand which brings death and destruction.
 
After 8 games. They‘ve finished mid table for the past 4 years.

Even that stat is deceiving they’ve won 4/8 games in France this season even United have done that and people want the manager out
Only idiots want ten hag out right now.

It takes a while for an owner to have a real impact. Nice was a mid table club before Jim too. They also have mid table wage budgets and spending. They aren't throwing away lots of money like United have been. I can't claim to closely follow other clubs to know their goals, but if an owner wants to transform a team to operate more smartly and gradually improve, then that'll simply take time to have an impact. Mistakes can be made along the way, nobody is perfect. He's not a sugar daddy owner (thank feck for that), so changes will take time.
 
seems like now they didn't get what they wanted, they are trying to sow as much division in the fanbase as possible with this constant "oh what I would have done for you" bs
It's not about qatar vs Ratcliffe, it's about the fact that glazers remain. So nothing whag sky or any other news saying is not wrong
 
I get the arguments against the Jassim bid, but it would have been a clean and clear break from the leeches once and for all.

Who fecking runs us now?

I just pushed back against the idea that "a vote for Jim is a vote for the Glazers". By all accounts Ineos will be allowed to invest immediately. We could have only had a full sale tomorrow if Qatar met the Glazers valuation which they clearly weren't prepared to do.
 
The recent reports says that they will, do you have a source that says otherwise? Fair point about Nice, I'm not convinced that Ineos will be fantastic owners but that's kinda a different discussion.
One of the main business reasons for it not being bad business for INEOS is that football revenue will rise , United value will rise. Assuming this is true, why will the Glazers sell in 3 years? If they go how much more will the glazers have ask for? Considering they refused $6.5b (Jassim’s reported final offer)
 
Isn't Sir James Arthur Ratcliffe FIChemE the one with the sentimental connection to the street in this awful analogy? Jassim would be looking to buy the house to sanitize the reputation of...*analogy falls apart further*

Edit: what's with the autocorrect on S J R about?

No, he isn’t.

He has a sentimental connection with Chelsea whom he is a long time season ticket holder of and whom he tried to buy last year only to fail as he, again, couldnt afford to buy it outright :lol:

Jassim is the guy who Loves Utd.

Brexit Jim is the guy who uses his birthplace to tug the puppet strings of gullible people and xenophobes, big difference.

Same thing he did with INEOS - played on the ‘keep it British’, Brexit card, then got what he wanted and fecked all the idiots over that’d bought into his nonsense :lol:

Direct your frustrations at Jassim then, he had pole position

Yep, I hope that he has a set price built in otherwise he’s going to be priced out in a few years
 
Find it hard to believe a Middle Eastern billionaire is just going to let United go for a laugh when they’re genuinely for sale. Maybe it’s easier to buy from the person who bought it than it is to buy from the Glazers?
 
Nah, that’s really not an accurate or balanced stance on it.

If you were selling your house, which you’d run into the ground, filled with debt that you couldn’t afford to pay and needed a new roof that you weren’t able to provide. Your neighbours utterly hate you and petition regularly for you to feck off.

Yet, due to your own delusional greed, you were asking more than double its market worth subsequently ensuring that you only had 1 proper bidder.

That bidder offers you far more than its market value because he has a sentimental connection with the street you live on.

Another guy offers to lend you money to rent just one of your four bedrooms. He can’t buy the house because he can’t afford it and will also be using debt from his other house to pay for one of your four bedrooms.

You choose the second guy, and tell the neighbours who utterly despise you that he is the new owner and will just be buying the house ‘gradually’…

Two things would be glaringly obvious -

1. You are still the owner of the house, not the guy paying for 1 of your bedrooms (25%).

2. You very likely never wanted to sell and just wanted someone to lend you some money to enable you staying in the house you’ve run into the ground.
Take some beers on my bill. Glazers are selling a rundown club with its worst period in Premier League history happening in the last 5 years.

If you remove Moyes season (which by the way is at par with the 2021-22 season in numbers) the worst period for United as Premier League club has happened in the last 4 years, using all metric available bar least goals scored which happened during LVG (49 goals). Everything else from few points, losses, goals conceded, Goal difference etc the worst record have happened during the last 4 years. From 1991 to date..

Glazers maybe they don't know what they are selling. Maybe they think they are selling Prime United under Ferguson.
 
The parasites stay on as majority stake holders. We are fecked. Sir Jim isn’t going to magically make the club run better with those wankers still there

show me that quote ‘Ineos invest immediately’ the debt will remain therefore any investment will be minimal pal.

Ratcliffe doesn’t have the money to bankroll it or he would have bid for the club outright. Rip united
 
feck it. It’s not what we wanted straight away but it’s something. Hopefully it brings a change in structure and direction.

I don't get your point tbh. The Glazers would be agreeing to sell in three years if they accept the Ineos bid. I don't know how these kinds of deals work with regards to put options and guaranteed prices etc.
 
The masses were led to believe he would tolerate losing to an AI generated image.

Tbh I'm a little concerned for the welfare of that image right now. The shame it has brought to Qatar won't have gone unnoticed.

A finger no doubt hovers over the delete button as we speak.
 
don't understand the vitriol aimed at Ratcliffe. He's done nothing wrong. He tried to buy the club, found the Glazers difficult and greedy, but found a way to start the process with a minority stake. It wasn't his preferred method, but the only one on the table.

You may not like the outcome, but it wasn't Ratcliffe deciding not to go with Qatar. Blame the Glazers. And also Qatar, because they obviously didn't do enough to get a deal over the line.
