The question was hope everything is okay. Any news about Manchester United takeover?
Qatari journalist "Everything is okay"
Nothing to take from this tweet.
Club Sale | It’s done!

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

Totally agree
2/3 of Red Cafe are in support of Sheikh Jassim as well.
I read his user name (Ole was right) and I stopped reading.
Despite the fact he is very well connected, I do not think Majed know anything about the sale at the moment.
Yes he is, I have seen him live on the Majles TV-show hundreds of times and he seem to be very well connected in the football world, but I am not sure about the business world. So I am not sure he has enough information about the sale.
Is anything happening at all? There has been nothing but speculations since the 3rd bid.
I mean, if we're judging on usernames....
Just saying
You are right,, although I liked Giggs the player, Giggs the person is a horrible person. But if you look at it, Giggs was once the king of the wingers. But Ole was never right
.Very good post.
We've used the rod of oil money against City for a decade. It's now in-built into our psyche. We're likely in fear of being called hypocrites if we welcomed oil money. The fact is the success of City compared to United over the last decade is not even close. You quite rightly state to stay ahead in terms of sporting success with state-of-the-art facilities money, and lots of it is a must.
I spend a lot of money and time going to games. I want to be entertained and my team to be successful if possible. Winning makes my week. If that means a country, company or individual can provide the resources needed all well and good. I am no saint, I drive cars which need oil, wear leather shoes, eat meat and all other aspects of my being use resources which are detrimental to the world. Picking on oil, and gas-producing countries is a bit rich when in reality we don't live in a cave.
The username suits both perspectives...

Nothing has happened except people tying themselves up in knots for no apparent reason. Some going into meltdown because Ratcliffe might win and others getting on the moral high horse. But in actuality nothing of note has happened since the end of April.
Exactly! I'm starting to think most didn't do the translation on twitter, and just took Berba's drooling emoji over a tweet in arabic, and assumed it was saying something about Qatar's bid being a done dealio.
On the contrary, the way he answers the first question (if everything is ok), while ignoring the second question (about the takeover), probably says a lot.
Works for Al Kass, which is a state owned Qatari sports channel.
Everything is okay mate
He is the cousin of Nasser. The most reputable Qatari journalist
The fact is we'll all have to make peace with our new overlords (@Wumminator excluded if it is a Qatari). We really can't dictate who the Glazers choose. Just have to wish it gets done and we can move on and have a decent transfer window.
Pretty much.
But that's not the conversation I was having nor the point contested, I reserve the right to ask why someone would say Qatar aren't serious when, again, they've gone through this process and made a world record bid.
And apparently everything is ok with him personally.
So many people are so concerned with whether he is legit when reporting that he is ok.
But I'm not the one making these assertions
Just because something is reported it doesn't mean it's accurate or that it comes from someone even close to knowing, let alone close enough to be labelled PR. This forum, like many others, employs a "reliability" scale for a reason.The bids as reported are that Qatar are looking to acquire 100% of the club. Ineos valuing it higher, doesn't mean the Qatar bid isn't a world record one. I mean, if I bid £5B for 100% of your house, and Berbaclass bids £2.7B for 50% of it, technically he values your house higher than I do, it doesn't mean my bid isn't a world record one. Also, so you take it for granted that "blow others are of the water" reports are accurate, therefore PR, but the reports that they want 100% of the club aren't? What's up with the selectiveness? I can pull those reports about world record bid
Yes, because they have a valuation for the club, that doesn't mean they aren't serious, especially when said valuation is reportedly higher than what any sporting institution has gone for.
My preference has always been Ineos but if it is Qatar I'm not gonna give up +40 years of supporting Utd ill get over it.
Not sure if he dodged the question in the tweet. My guess is that he said that everything is okay with regards to both points raised.
Inappropriate Content
To the hardcore Sir Jim fans all those brown people look the same....
Like a true Brexiteer.
Share price rising nicely today so that means Jassim has moved back into the lead right?
I know it doesn't
I know it doesn't
Definitely
Great post! Genuinely laughing out loud
Is this a football forum or a school playground? Shame on you all.
Apologies, I was trying to make a point about how it's a ridiculous and lazy thing to say.
Right on mate.
I bet the INEOS clocks are miserable
Lads, I’ve been thinking about it and I’ve decided I’m willing to take Darcie Glazer out for a fish supper (not a euphemism, unless she wants it to be) and a side of her choice if it convinces her to piss off and bring those boiled lizards she calls siblings with her. Just something to mull over. I’ve been told I have the sexual enthusiasm of a much younger man (“he always has sex like it’s his first time”).
Get in line
So Sir Jim paying off the initial debt with additional debt = paying off the debt??? Jesus, what a moron.
You have no idea what you’re talking about, throwing around name calling without a clue.
If ratcliffe wins whats to say the glazers havent done a deal of first refusal of his shares on death or senility
Qatar = Unknown
INEOS = I feel like I know what they are going to be about.
