Been waiting a couple of days for this moment.. The year of my birth, a momentous occasion if I say so myself :lol:

I was speaking of the fan base as a whole, perhaps the majority of local fans don't want Qatar, but where's the outrage? As I said, apart from one small protest at Old Trafford, I can't remember anything else. Even the 1958 protest not so long ago was for a full sale only, nothing to do with...

You don't have to audit the fanbase to get a feel for what the majority want, I don't know where you're looking but I'm seeing Qatar as preferred owners by some majority everywhere I'm looking, whether that be posts, tweets, polls or whatever. People can argue it's not truly representative of...

Let's be honest, it's state funded and everyone in any position of authority knows it, the FA, Premier League and Government, they're not going to do anything about it because they don't care and just want the investment. This would of been sounded out long ago and I'd bet my sweet derriere...

Is there a scenario where it's in the best interests of the Qataris to delay the sale until it's theoretically too late for a 'Qatar transfer window'? e.g If SJ bought the club tomorrow and spent 500 million this transfer window, besides the fact that every selling club would want silly money...

100% of the shares they own, as opposed to 100% of the club (that they don't own)

Don't know too much about American holidays but I'd bet my left testicle that Raine aren't closed for business today, or any day for that matter. The pursuit of profit never rests.

I don't see any reason why a statement can't be released tomorrow, stock exchange doesn't have to be open just to release a statement, it can be fourth of July or Pancake day, as long as it's done prior to it opening then surely it's all good. Happy to be proved wrong.

I seen the tweet and I thought it was out of order myself but it's just some randomer, there's doubts he's even from the middle east. And Twitter is an absolute cesspit, I woudn't take that as a measurement of anything bar stupidity.

They wrote a few: Can't buy me club Money (that's what the Glazers want) Here comes the sum I'll get my coat :lol:

I wouldn't read too much into it, they're just trying to make SJ look incompetent. The Athletic have been pro Jim from the off.

The minority angle is just to keep the Qataris on their toes, nothing more than a boogeyman desgined to strengthen the Glazers negotiating position.

Shiekh Jassim, think you're looking for SJR :lol:

I first read that as Chucklevision :lol: The way this sale process has gone, it honestly wouldn't shock me.

Even the PR has been appalling. It's been a slipshod bid from the word go, all ifs, buts and maybes. Amazed he's not destitute if this is how he does business.
