So you think he'd be unequivocally worse than the Glazers? Seems highly unlikely.

Goodbye parasites, United has now taken deworming medicine.
Who is Reuters and Bloomberg? Never heard either mentioned on Sky Sports or by the respected football journalists on twitter. I call bullshit.
The guy who thinks he knows everything about the Qatar bid on Goldbridge’s channel. Rather not!
I don’t think it would bar the extra 50M, we just won’t go on a spending spree like most of the fanbase worldwide would expect. FFP has meant that we can’t really spend that much more
We would need to sell, apparently we can spend up to £300-400M if we sell a few players for decent prices. But it hinges on us selling of course
Wonder which Qatari club is going to buy Maguire and Martial in a double swoop for £100m hahah
Groundhog day.
Shares only just a little under 4% its not a vast change
It'd be funny if ironically Bloomberg and Reuters are getting leaks by Raine or the Glazers because they don't feel like reaching out to the British journos
I don’t think it means that. Raised future outlook in this context means that the company has given a higher guidance for revenue (£640m) for the whole year as compared to £580m. I hope you are right and the sale is imminent.
It's getting more real now. In an ideal world I did not want Manchester United to become a state-owned club but we've been run into the ground by parasitic owners and this was pretty much the only way to wipe out our debt and give us a secure future.
If Bloomberg are reporting that Qatar are confident, then I would take it as read that Qatar are indeed confident - Bloomberg are not in the business of making things up.
Qatar's confidence could be misplaced of course, and Ineos may still be confident, too.
Either way, I think we can all agree that this just needs to end and end soon.

The writers look legit.
Im not going to open my heart again..it hurts too much..
bucket of cold vomit incoming
Oh great. This chicken fried feck has to weigh in, doesn't he?
What’s the best guess for when the announcement will be made?
It is obvious you are joking, but it is genuinely bemusing to see people on other platforms trying to discredit the reports on this basis.
It’s going to be such a painfully vague word salad where he tries to reference these new developments back to something he has said at some point ignoring he also said “however the opposite is also a possibility”.2072.
Nobody can guess that. Nobody has any idea.
Come on, let this saga end. It's all so tiresome.
Was it Forbes who reported that United and Qatar were entering exclusive negotiations a few weeks ago? Seems like there might’ve been a major breakthrough in those negotiations and we’re not far off from a resolution now based on this Bloomberg news.
A week on Thursday just after elevenses.
Ben Jacobs about to announce the chicken I had for lunch has given me salmonella and I have one week to live
When does DSE (Doha Stock Exchange) open?
I don't even know who Ben Jacobs is.
It was Reuters, and believe it or not it was only last week. Goes to show how long it seems to be dragging on for.
We’ve had the same reports/tweets for months that the Qatari’s were confident of winning the bidding war. INEOS too.
I would be getting excited with this recent tweet but seen these similar sort of tweets on numerous occasions now so not going to get my hopes up too much
Like you said in your last sentence, we definitely need this to come to a close now. It’s dragged on way too long now.
I won't get excited until Howard Nurse says "soon then." Guess i'm a traditionalist.
I was thinking the same
Man just lacked the style and social media nous.@girish is probably already on the case
Ben Jacobs and tailgating MUFC takeover reports by journalists with sources. Name a better duo.
Unlike yesterday, big volume today.
Hitler and Goebbles for a start.
In few hours some journos will announce that there's actually no preferred bidder yet. Rinse and repeat.
Lawton and Dickinson from The Times will tweet soon that Ratcliffe is still a firm favourite to acquire Man United, like usual
Howard Nurse: New Newton Heath ownership regime rumoured to change the club's name to Manchester United.
Has that random TikTok match day ticket got any sources of the takeover? or I can't believe these trash reports from Reuters and Bloomberg
They better not be changing the kits from green and yellow! And getting a stadium with those fangled chair things for people to sit on!
