In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.

Small sample size. They have only been owners for 11-12 years. Besides three years is long in today's football. No manager post-Fergie has reached that time period and we are known to be a club that gives managers chance to stay longer than deserved.
Imagine if he is going to be our CEO
What is the problem with that? Our second greatest manager captained City and played for Liverpool. Without him, United would have not been a big club.
I'd be all for this. Bar this, Saddam could takeover United for all I care
Keep..going..almost...there..
One positive to come from a Middle Eastern takeover is it might finally get rid of those Top Reds who never accepted Man Utd becoming a global franchise. There's not too many of them but still a few lurking around the club. Get in the the bin tbh.
Yeah but thats Bubsy and this is a wanker.
That's all in your head.
While arguably nice in theory (there is a massive amount of politics going on in those systems too), it just cannot be done in practice. Clubs are private businesses, the government cannot (and should not) just take them from the owners and give to the fans. Fans might not like it, but clubs are private properties of their owners.
But before Busby became our manager, he was a wanker. I mean, he captained City and played for Liverpool. That's like James Milner in reverse, even worse, cause Milner is just the second captain of Liverpool.
Because they forced the team to play like a day after their bus got bombed. I'd imagine ETH would have somethig to say as well.
If you Google the profiles of the two names mentioned I don't think they have the background nor experience for running a football club.
One of them was the co-chairman of Qatar's world cup committee. I can see him being incharge of the whole United-centred project from the perspective of urban renewal, city infrastructure etc. Not just a football club which would be a step down for him -- responsible for a 200billion project versus a 6billion quid project.
It's not really, there was always a few who never liked the global aspect of Man Utd and sneered at overseas fans.
Those people will disproportionately hate a Qatari takeover so they may finally opt out altogether. I heard Neville's club is doing alright.
Things are happening….
I think regardless of who takes over, a big summer is likely (I hope)
Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment have been mentioned in passing a few times. The UnitedMuppetiers account referenced ESPN saying that Oaktree Captial partnered up with HBSE. I think they were even included in the poll that The Athletic had too. From my quick bit of research, it seem the two main player in Josh Harris and David Blitzer own shares in Crystal Palace.
Ordinarily, you'd guess yes. But the Glazers could not care less about the fans' preferences and will simply sell to the highest bidder, so spending time trying to win over the fans is a bit of a waste of time for prospective buyers, until they know they've won the auction.
The same journos that don’t want Qatar, pushed an agenda to bring in Poch over ETH.
Newcastles biggest ever signing for about 10 years was Michael Owen at 18 million, its an unfair comparison because ashley was a horrific owner.
What is the latest?
Ireland isn’t United yet.
Do you usually think before you write?
The athletic doing a poll isn’t really a reasonable sample of all Utd fans. The average fan isn’t going to pay for a subscription to The Athletic especially during a cost of living crisis. It’s clearly a certain demographic of people who will be subscribers and therefore voting.
Well we're Devils of the red kind so Satan is sort of appropriateSeems like the most appropriate owner out there tbh
Dead people buying clubs hasn’t really taken off yet.
I’m not sure even Satan would want to do business with the Glazers.
Christ.
Ronaldo would never have signed a new contract at United, he wanted to go to RM no matter what and made the plain to SAF at the time
Maybe you misunderstood. At the corporate and commercial level the local side of things are meaningless. I’m not saying it doesn’t matter as a fan.
Reality is there is from a business perspective the local fan base is negligible. It’s foolish to think they have a stake commercially. Even local players like Rashford wouldn’t stay a second longer if we couldn’t afford him from the commercial side of business
Take this shit back to twitter.
Well that's good, from the sounds of it there's not much else in there.
I'm convinced people don't understand how Polls and surveys work.
If it has then Walt Disney might ready a bid?
What we don't want is Robert Maxwell getting involved.
Only a matter of time! Phil brown update will be interesting.
they would likely sell PSG soon.
V quiet ahead of the soft deadline
Sadly thats probably longer than we have kept some of ours.
