Just a small number of fans protesting the ownership at the end, given that there was over 70,000 fans in attendance its quite a pathetic protest to be honest, but the team won so all good....
10k is not small, Liverpool got their ticket price increase reversed with a protest of this size.

Begone, WUM.

It’s hilarious as hell, as to how this has all turned out. The Human Rights Activists on here we’re all dying for Jimmy Ratcliffe until they realised Good Old Brexit Jim, didn’t even want to buy the whole club, was keeping the debt, keeping the Glazers and the slight worry that all his sporting assets perform downwards, once INEOS get control. Bloomberg pointed this out, so why would Man Utd be any different ?

Then you’ve got the Human Rights Abusers who want to go toe to toe with the Saudis at Newcastle and UAE at Man City, our saviour, Sheikh Jassim, who’s basically a front for the QIA and the Emir who also supports Man Utd. Slight worry with these lot is how they run PSG compared to how the Saudis and UAE rolls at their English Clubs

Third option is getting stuck with the Rednecks and hillbilly Glazers. All in all, my conclusions is we better hope Jassim wins and is nothing like the Qatari Group at PSG. That could be the perfect bid to bring us back to the top.

I can't remember many 'human rights activists' who were 'dying' for Ratcliffe. Some conscientious fans would prefer him to Qatar's state bid, though, that is hardly a ringing endorsement.

Good job to whoever protested post game or anywhere. Not sure why others belitte anything fans try to do as a protest.

Not sure what I can do over here from across the pond, proud of any fan action.

Given other countries, fans would have set fires across and around the stadium.

If I was them I would take the money and run. Club is mess and they are the core issues, there is no fixing this; no matter what they do they make a mess of it. They have a great offer, take the money and run.

Utter fools as businessmen, won the lottery with this.
I am praying they adopt that mindset eventually but still not enough noise of a sale materialising

Nonchalantly scoring the winner...
I actually really like that the boy Jassim hasn’t upped his offer and has just sat there while the pressure increases on them and the cogs fall off all around them with literally every ridiculous decision they make.

You can just picture him, staring them out like hypno toad from Futurama, pulling that weird Phil Jones face from the picture with his Dad…

It all depends on who they want the club sold to.

It's most likely 'the boy Jassim' will have to claw extra funding or go back to the well-paid job his relatives gave him.

As for the Glazers, they are selling an asset they've mismanaged for billions more than it is worth. They are doing alright no matter what happens. Laughing at Qatar and their PR parade.

They'll also be galvanised by yesterday's protest. After a great match where their team heroically came back, the vast majority of supporters did not join 'the boy Jassim' parade. The match sold out of tickets, also.

It'll happen when either bidder up their bid.

Qatar to assuage the Glazer's greed ceiling or Ineos to assuage the shareholder's similar.

I imagine Qatar. State bid.

Bit of a contradiction here no? If it’s a state bid then they will be handling the bid and negotiations and Jassim is just the face of it surely?

Good that MOTD drew attention to it.
They did for about 10 seconds, and then through what seemed like gritted teeth, a bit like when they had to mention that City had 115 charges against them last season.

The match report from the Daily Mail had a good mention of it, I liked the line - "This is a club that no longer stands for anything under the Glazers, except the exploitation of an asset." It's been that way since the start of course, but it's nice to see it been written down.

No it does not! They want the Glazers Out, this is all that matters first and foremost.
And the second part, jesus give it a rest. You have no idea who any of them want to take over so please stop spouting your shite in every post. :rolleyes:

I can’t wait till the day they finally sell to Qatar and the likes of these patronising posts are sodded off with them, because obviously you will stop supporting Utd won’t you ?

Going back to that news at the beginning of June, by Ornstein that the Glazers "PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi to ask him to convince Sheikh Jassim to increase his bid to buy the club."

Was that all of the siblings or only a few of them?

There's a bunch some 35 miles up the East Lancs who, I suspect, would be far more radical if the Glazers owned Liverpool.

These parasites are actually acting like they paid for the club and have to recoup their monumental initial investment.

Maybe they think ETH is going to be the next SAF good enough to cover up their incompetence and mismanagement

No contradiction, simply reminder 'the boy Jassim' is exactly as you say - the acceptable plant for a state bid.

Just because you said that, I'm going to stay and patronise to high heaven.

Fact is the vast majority of those in attendance could not be bothered joining in the protest. It's futile. Did any protests deter Murdoch, or the Glazers?

No.

The Glazers know this and will act accordingly. No point getting angry with me for pointing it out.

Some would prefer to ask the so-called 1958 who exactly they want the club sold to, and why. We all want the Glazers gone (surely?).

My concern is the like returning.

This thing's getting to me. Last night I dreamt that United had been bought by a 50-man consortium led by Sheikh Jassim, and as I read through the list of names I saw that Adolf Hitler was one of the co-owners :lol:

I don't think that was ever specified in the reports. Assuming that was true, my bet is on Avram...maybe made some connections on his trip to Qatar during the World Cup.

That is interesting. Avram has been the sibling that has presented himself as the one who cares about the club by going to Wembley to watch the 3 finals.. This is reinforced by the media as they state he and Joel want to stay on in some capacity.

If that is the case, then maybe they are putting up a front in order to get a higher offer from Sheikh Jassim?

The only thing you keep pointing out is that you're anti Qatar. And again you seem to know what everyone is thinking and doing and you say it's futile. Doing nothing is far worse than trying to do something we all want but oh yes, I remember now you know they all want Qatar so have no morals according to you!
You don't know shit mate.

I wonder if you'll do as much to see that Qatar don't take over as much as these fans are doing TO GET RID OF THE GLAZERS. I bet you haven't and won't do anything at all. Also as someone else mentioned I hope you'll delete your account on here and stop supporting utd when Qatar do take over. But I'm guessing you won't do anything then either!

Your dream could have been a lot worse. Glazers could have been part of the consortium.

Looking at the replies to this, it looks like the Qatar takeover is being backed by some of the worst people in United's "support".

Solidarity with our LGBTQ fans.

This makes no sense whatsoever. There are plenty of posters on here who don’t support united as is
