They are worth £560 billion. I think it’s safe to say they are … confident.
I'm certain one of Saudi or Qatar, whomever is unsuccessful with us will aim for Liverpool.
It will be hooked to my veins 24/7. I will no longer have to eat, drink, or sleep to survive. I will just feed on the hatred and rage.
Glazers leverage debt to acquire the club through banks and then place the debt on the club itself. Almost two decades of ownership there's been no investment into the clubs facilities. They then run salt in the wound and take out yearly dividends that the club produces. Then there's the super league fiasco and their involvement throwing Woodward under the bus when it's clearly a conversation they were complicit with.
It's not a situation of the grass being greener, there's no grass left but mould and dry wall. Good riddance.
Backtracked? Dropped the ITK? Cryptic?
This thread is getting silly. Not sure how this post could confuse anyone.
Someone made a point and I agreed with it. Calm down.
If the Qataris bought us then if…
We could see some real progress regarding women’s rights, LGBT rights and basic human rights then it would all be hunky dory.
But I can’t see that happening just because they bought United.
Regimes love to keep the status quo of men being in charge and pretending to the outside world that they ‘promise’ to make changes.
No chance.
What? Reuters refers to bloomberg reporting? Interesting. They are fierce rivals.
There won't be, Ten Hag will get the final say and we'll be run within the means of FFP and whatever financial restraints the PL put on us.
Well at least the club won't have more financial issues, and if City smash the PL with the FFP thing at least we'll be able to compete with their unhinged spending that will come right after the trial.
FFP will dictate that our spending power will be based on income. We’ll probably get a huge shirt sponsorship deal and the debt will be cleared. I don’t think we’ll go PSG crazy but buying power will probably be the up there. Presumably we’ll become a privately owned entity again too.
But the club generates plenty of its own revenue, unlike City who uses “sponsorships” (fraud). FFP does not apply in the same manner.
The share has been traded upward almost to $27
Normally I'd agree but if the info coming from Qatar is true and FSG do not want to sell a controlling stake, I'd struggle to see why the Arab nations would bother.
If I was them, I'd go for Spuds with their excellent new stadium and London location. Unless they have a crazy Liverpool fan up high in the Royal family, I guess.
They will get sir Jim. Guy wants PL club. If he did bid for Celski then he will sure bid for Pool
Saudi Arabia at the very least would be prepared to match £5b I'm sure. The pretenders like Ratcliffe should drop out quickly though
And we’ll have CL money to boot plus a new shirt sponsorship that will be signed as soon as the takeover happens.
i don’t think we need to spend all that much, it really looked as if we planning on signing a top striker and midfielder before the takeover
Hate the sportswashing and state backed and all that and if I had it my way we wouldn't go for Qatar or Saudi. Sadly I'm merely a spectator.
That being said, after being flamed and roasted in every group chat every season post Fergie its time for sweet sweet revenge
Feck the Glazers fecking parasites.

Feck the Glazers fecking parasites.
I'm not believing it myself and I expect it go wrong at any time, possibly ending in the hands of Ratcliffe, or worse. But I will take the opportunity to get hyped.
Negotiations to be similar to this
Probably yeah.
Going to be a seismic summer for the club we arent far off
Hope this gets wrapped up quickly. The sooner the rat-tailed parasites feck off back to Tampa, the sooner we can make preparations for the summer and bring in what ETH needs to compete next season.
Do the Glazers have to pay 20% capital gains tax?
Feels like one of those Game of Thrones rug pulls, doesn't it? I hope we get over the League Cup final at least.
Saudi private bid for Chelsea couldnt match American bid. PIF is not involved. Its why no one is running with Saudi story. All major financial news outlets are running Qatar story
The oil money is coming.
Putting aside the morality argument for a second, how can you not be excited for the football side of stuff. We're genuinely about to start being contenders, we have the beginnings of a great side and a great manager. After a decade of city and Liverpool winning everything in sight, its going to be amazing to be back at that level
Ta, also say Saudi have bid. Sky News I know would have done more due diligence then Sky Sports and others so am now in the it's happening phase
good point. id like to know aswell but im sure they know how to wriggle around or limit it
Seems very harsh doesn’t it?
And that won't matter one bit if City spend £500m on a new team right after the FFP trial if they win, we simply can't compete if that happens, no one can.
