Everything you've said has been speculation. But it's good to get it all out in the open, because I've been curious what type of fear mongering is keeping people from warming to the INEOS bid.
It’s funny how everyone is speculating here but are accusing each other of speculation
That's a bit speculative, some of us may have facts.
I think their bid could well turn out to be shite, but I think we should actually wait and see for some substance from all bids.
I’ve said it over and over again, but there’s a ME desperation here leading to all sorts of wild claims about the INEOS bid, which I just can’t help but engage with.
The quote I posted you said "he's 70, he wants a legacy"
You didn't say might.
I'm giving you the facts, 6bn is a shitload of money that can generate far better returns than a football club, now buying a PL club for 500m investing 1.5bn on field can make them worth 3bn or 4bn and be a decent investment. But not for 6bn.
His history buying a club for peanuts in a weaker league and barely investing in them despite the fact even a decent amount of investment would likely see them regular top3.
We've seen him push for damaging policies for the countries just to make himself a little bit better off when he's already stinking rich
There is zero to back up any of your guesses and there's a lot to back up mine, so yours is far closer to speculation
We're going to end up with Joel and Avi funded with Elliott!
There was a tweet in here yesterday saying hoping to have it concluded by the end of next month supposedly.
There was also one saying Raine are hoping for a speedy process.
erm….
And it was the Guardian and multiple other outlets that have claimed he wants a legacy, not me la’.
Cannot contemplate something so diabolical
And Qatar buying Liverpool, with Jimmy buying Spurs claiming he was always a fan. Fun decade ahead.
What’s happening?
That's why we have to take them now
But atleast we won't have lost half our fanbase
Posts telling people to feck off if they have an issue with Qatar. Lots of posts calling Ratcliffe bumcliffe.
Xenophobic
I swear some of you have lost it. Do you think the lads protesting the Glazers and shutting down the Liverpool game are international fans flying in just for a ding dong or local lads who go to most of the games?
Yes we have a global following but the most important fans will always be the ones in Britain and more specifically Manchester because shock horror we are a British team based in Manchester.
Bumcliffe
No surprise there, fans are absolutely desperate to be the new Man City, as seen on here.
I really don’t think so. However I think The Glazers will get exactly what they want. This will be the biggest sale of a sports club for sure.
Yes, you said he might be going in for a fun way to spend his wealth, you said he does want a legacy.
Well if we take all newspapers as fact I'm still remembering sneijder and gaitans amazing years here
I think as fans we’ll get what we deserve.
TV rights are only a part of it, commercial opportunities are vast and a lot of potential has not been tapped yet, this is why US consortiums and equity firms are showing interest, they know this and they also know how to exploit them
“Sheikh Jassim Bin Hamad Al Thani today confirmed his submission of a bid for 100 percent of Manchester Utd football club”.
At least do some research before speaking with so much conviction. You’ve spent the whole day rambling on for pages arguing something you have very little information on like a disturbed teenager with condescending posts at anyone who disagrees with you. You’re like a bumble bee stuck in a honey jar frustrated with no wings. Take a break.
Chelsea?
Surely most of them are fans of other clubs trolling.
Glazers are divided, Joel and Avi wants to stay.
Its over for them now clearly
Qatar wants 100% of the club, they will buy the Glazers share and then the shares in the market and the club will no longer be listed in the stocks market.
Born and bred in Failsworth but yeah sure, if thag helps you sleep better.
Ah that sounds like we're talking about serious intellectual debates then. Hahahaha.
Let's be honest.... people want Qatar because they are the richest. There's nothing else to it. If Jim was the richest everyone would want him.
I don't want to be a ME play thing personally but it's out of my hands.
Ratcliffe paying you for all the PR in this thread?
I thought he was a Chelsea season ticket holder?
No one would have bid for Chelsea if it was 4.5bn plus an extra 1.5bn investment. Yes we're more valuable, but that extra 2bn makes it far more difficult to become profitable.
I assume it’s Ragcliffe over on Bluemoon.Bumcliffe
I know. That is a great way to hold a good position. They want to get most out of this sale and they will.
Not everyone is greedy for oil money I guess
No such thing as clean money, sorry to break it to you.

Brexit FC.
Do we really have people claiming the fans at the games are not the most important fans? Is that where we are in this debate?
