Thinks the caf is 'wokeish'.
Like Utd fans are going to have any control over the decision, especially those that live beyond 10 miles from the ground. Such a weird narrative.

IMO, the Qatar deal would be worse than the Glazers. Be careful what you wish for.
Full on Bank of America posse (Shabaz worked there for over 20 years). I thought bankers were the devil, but I doubt it will be perceived this way in this instance.
Based on what?
You may have that the wrong way round. Or you have issues. Not sure which.IMO, shagging Megan Fox would be worse than Susan Boyle. Be careful what you wish for.
Jim is a bluffer.
A and B. All day long. Absolutely the biggest thing that would get this club moving forward again.So IIRC the ideal owner should:
-Buy the club: ~5B
-Clear the debt: ~1B
-Remodel Old Trafford: ~1B
-Invest in the squad: ~150-200M/year?
What is your order of priorities as a United fan?
A) Get rid of the Glazers
B) Get rid of the debt
C) New Old(?) Trafford
D) A stronger team
From a business POV C and D look more important IMO, as it should allow cash flows to gradually do B. Thing is, that prevents A from happening, and the Glazers don't have the money to make C and D happening without getting into even worse debt. A real conundrum.
Jassim is a banker, Hamad is a banker, Shahzad is a banker... there's only bankers in this alleged ownership hierarchy.Bankers are necessary, just don't have them run the club.

Just imagine when the Sheikh’s boys need to go for a piss.I can only imagine what they are being treated to.
If we know anything about the current set up at United they will have paper plates and whatever left over Rollover Hot Dogs we have left from the last home game.
“Any ketchup?”
“We have a few sachets left but only three”
Could have got rich by being great at Poker.The richest man in the UK is a bluffer, I've heard it all now crikey.
How did you get so rich Sir Jim? "Bluffing it's that easy you should try it"
Better than our current owners who are a group of w*nkers.Jassim is a banker, Hamad is a banker, Shahzad is a banker... there's only bankers in this alleged ownership hierarchy.
Yeah baby!Is Sam Powers related to Austin?

And speedos.if they are at OT they'll give them goggles
Appreciate it guys, maybe we can get this thread a little back on track.
I didn’t realise the population of Salford was that big.
Fans who attend games regularly are more important fans. And (for obvious reasons) they will tend to be local fans too. So it's absolutely fine to argue that local fans are more important, even before you take into account what being from Manchester actually means to the club itself.
Our current owners and the Qataris aren’t from Salford. We need Scholesly to step up and put a bid in. After which we should disband the entire squad because the majority of them are foreigners. Sack ETH too because he’s a Dutch cnut who’s not from Manchester.Better than our current owners who are a group of w*nkers.
The only true owners of Utd would be the local chippy and laundrette owner round the corner from Sir Matt Busby Way. As for the players, it’s going to have to be the groundsmen. Fat Frank is decent in the hole apparently.Our current owners and the Qataris aren’t from Salford. We need Scholesly to step up and put a bid in.

Am I doing it right?![]()
It really is a pathetic argument considering a lot of fans are foreigners who attend every home match. It must mean they are more important than the local fan who only watches at home because he can’t afford a season ticket.Ehhhh, as a local I disagree. This just feels like the type of stuff people tell themselves to make themselves feel good - and that's overlooking how a considerable amount of the people regularly attending games at OT are not "locals". United has long and consistently courted it's global appeal. It's core to the club and majorly responsible for the stature it has and enjoys.
This whole "X fans are more important than Y fans" is waffle
