Talking about foreign fans, I know a Canadian lad who loves United and is spending more than one and a half grand to watch the Fulham game. I'm meeting up with him for the game. I'm not going to tell him he's not a proper fan before his flight back home.
 
British press are hilarious. What kind of headline is that? How coming in person will help making the bid which is worse financially, better?



Took the words right out of my mouth.

The only way he has of bettering the Qatari bid is simply offering more money than the Qatari’s.

He can tell them the story about the time his grandson found a golden ticket in a chocolate bar.
 
I don’t know what Ratcliffe hopes to achieve, as the charm offensive is unlikely to win the Glazers over, they don’t give a toss about the future of United.
He’ll be trying to convince them that they can still leave as good guys in the eyes of United as long as then ensure they sell to someone who wants what’s best for United long term. They won’t give a feck though, they’d sell us to Kim Jong for an extra billion.

I can just imagine the Glazers going "well Qatar offered a billion more, but Jim showed up in person so let's give it to him" :lol:

He's going on the charm offensive. What's a half a billion between friends eh
 
I mean, Ratcliffe would have to pull some next level Martin Sheen THE WEST WING speech to win the Glazers over. There’d have to be tears and fecking everything. Not a dry seat in the house…

It's basically the equivalent to 'keep Ole because he's a nice guy'.

Even then they'll sign the highest offer through tears

Who said he wouldn't match the second bid?
 
“Avram, I can call you Avi, right? You see that seat up there… I used to sit there and watch Martin Buchan run games…”

“That’s the North stand…. Third tier.”
 
As for another comment "I can imagine Matt Busby for example turning in his grave at the thought of a state (let alone Qatar) owning Manchester United." well im surely Dear Matt has had a few turns before now at the "state" of the club finances ,the stadium and all round mismanagement for profit of our current group.
Perhaps. Corkscrewing to the centre of the earth might be more appropriate for this case then.

Just tell him he's inferior to wumminator. He will understand
 
Couldn't think of what to say? I made my point in my other posts before that, what the feck are you on about?

And loads of posters made exactly the same point after me, including a mod, so your talking out of your arse as usual. To be honest if your the kind of fan that's at games regularly then I'm glad I don't go anymore.

You made your point and were warned for it. I don’t understand why you can’t debate without resorting to insults.

He’s probably not massively insecure about it though tbf.
 
Just noticed Manchester United’s Instagram has posted some pictures of fans making their way to the ground but … nothing about fans watching on tv in other countries. Guys… is our Instagram racist?!??
 
People need to start getting thread banned for going off topic.

Create another thread to debate fan location and importance but stop trashing this. Otherwise let it go you feckwits :lol:

I wasn't warned for making my point actually, I was warned for the insult, which you deserved for the way you behave towards other fans that are simply from another country supporting the team.
 
I’m still trying to figure out if there are practical benefits of coincidental proximity aka being a more important supporter.
 
I wonder if we’ll get pics of SJR arriving at OT tomorrow? I hope so, he’s going to want to show his face a lot since that seems to be his angle.

Should be a fun morning/day.

Right, I genuinely don’t want to get anyone banned here - not my style at all - but I can see you can’t really post without insults or saying I deserve to be insulted so I’ll back out of this thread again.

Qatar still murdered hundreds of migrants, they still have horrendous laws for women and minorities and nothing will change. Some are okay with that, some think this is not acceptable for their club. I will leave you all in peace because after two people being warned after I questioned them I think it’s unfair to continue to post and risk them getting banned.

PS - I didn’t report you for this post so if someone else gets you warned it genuinely wasn’t me.

I've stated in the past that I'm completely neutral about who takes over, so I don't know why your bringing that up with me, I was only commenting on the fan thing.

And there was nothing in my most recent post that deserves a warning, so I don't know what your on about there. If I deserve a warning for that then you should be warned for some of your posts too.
