And the deals are becoming less lucractive nowadays due to poor performance. so not like the ESL
I cut them a bit of slack because they're probably afraid to engage but it's not a good look. They've surely got a finger on the pulse of the significant opposition to their ownership even from day one, hence their apprehension. Hopefully local figures at the club will figure out a good forum that allows the fans voices to be heard yet provides the Glazers with a safe and civil environment for fan engagement.
Well when you get to a certain level of earnings, this becomes a valid argument. It is the reason governments generally tax the rich more than they do the poor. Is it not?
Imagine being this guy and having to go live on air and lie through your teeth.
Hope they are paying him well
I really hate the Glazers. They actually make me sick.

Blimey don't say that Joel will bottle out of appearing on this fans forum despite what the club lackey just said
I agree. We should be protesting. Anyone outside the ground is doing fantastic work and I’d back then every time. I’d even back those who got the game cancelled the first time around, but that can’t go on forever and I’m not supportive of those simply going out trying to cause trouble and get the game called off when it’s unnecessary. We can make our voices heard off the pitch and watch our players play football on the pitch.
Reminds me of Michael Owen's famous 'the problem with city is, if they don't score they don't win' line.
You're either utterly clueless or you're a Glazer stooge telling Utd fans they should be happy the Glazers steal so much money from the club because it stops us dominating English football and making it boring. Or you're both.
No point arguing with you.
In fairness no one has caused any trouble today that we know of. It was resoundingly constructive from what we have seen.
Even the story about slashing the bus tires was false.
Yeah and it looks like that's what's happened tonight
Haven't seen it yet! But my point stands, nobody will come to a forum if they're only going to have abuse hurled at them. There needs to be some tact and diplomacy, so the right people need to be chosen to represent the fans.
What a twat Daniel Taylor is.
In which case I’ve jumped the gun and apologise. There have been plenty in here advocating getting the game cancelled though which I still think is a shame.
Expect the GMP to wade in heavy handed soon to get us some bad press. Like clockwork.
That's a good news story and I'm proud of the fans for keeping it legit.
Faster and better to unscrew the valves anyway
Never mind that I have said the Glazers out part is correct. You're not compelled to argue with me anyway so...
Which is good! I read the reports of the blocked busses and roads and condemned that.
By protesting, no less
Thought it was fine, personally. But fair play on having different opinions and I take back my poor evaluation of your support. It was below the belt.
Yeah the chances of us getting respect from the media for this calmer protest is absolute nil
Yes, if it is through a sustainable model.
United should be a fecking emblem of the people right now, we're one of the only clubs who can compete with the dirty money oil backed/sovereign wealth clubs and do it honestly whilst being self supporting. The Glazers are stopping that by loading debt into the club, taking money out and putting zero in, they are purposefully hindering in the club's potential to maximise their earnings.
That was a decoy bus by the sounds of it
Usual suspects are here I see.
It’s fine. I don’t for one second think that the intentions are right. I just feel like we can continue protesting without trying to hurt the players on the pitch whom I’m fairly proud to support at this moment in time.
I hope that this is sustained, we need to fight the club on this i.e. surprise attacks etc so they can't turn OT into helms deep and sneak everyone in at 6AM
you have to go all in. Just liquify everything and think about the consequences later b
whatever the rights and wrongs of the protests - I find it’s particularly attention seeking to come out and say you want us to have points deducted.
I've been worried that the momentum would quickly fizzle out again, so it's pleasing to see a decent crowd there tonight. The Glazers need to know that fans won't be pacified by yet more false promises.
Does such a person, outside of the Glazer family's business circle, even exist?
Ah sorry I thought you were eluding to the way the owners purchased us.
That said there is a massive difference between effectively capping the spend of an historically huge team who have earned every penny the hard way (in spite of our owners rather than because of them like the oil clubs) and the concept of the Super League and preserving wealth.
Our wealth is not preserved like it would be in a SL. We can spend it on magic beans and never recoup it again, conversely we’ve every right to continue to spend to correct the poor spending that’s gone before it.
Why did nothing of note happen Tuesday? Or did it?
No.
We got some Glazer plants in this forum?
No, nothing happened on Tuesday.
Other than the earlier kickoff time, why not?
