People are saying United are the only club that can organically compete with City, Newcastle et. No debt purchase. Debt paid off, Glazers out, commitment to stadium investment Vs financed shares purchase, glazers in, no commitment to anything.
If it was Kyle Walker, the dream was probably realistic enough to have you questioning if it was real. In my case, I was reading the news in the format of a typical NYSE press release and figures were quoted in USD, so it really felt real.
Either that or hire a bunch of witches to hex them.
I used Malaga as an example because they are literally the closest example of being owned by someone close to the Qatari ruling family but as an individual. If I used any other example no doubt the reply would be that they are different etc etc. If any of you genuinely think it could be an individual bid, then you should be very very concerned with where the money comes from. Jassim himself probably isn't even richer than Ratcliffe, his daddy is but hates football.
I’ve said it, how does the Country of Qatar not blow SJR’s bid out of the water?
First sensible post in here for a long time.
that's ridiculous. Quick format of the club, and we're back like nothing happened..We get it, you don't want the Qatar bid to win and would prefer the Rat/Glazers to stay in power.
I know what you mean.
I have my preference like everyone else has but I'm so sick of it now. It's a total and utter embarrassment for all parties.
How so? Jassim stated full purchase and hasn’t weaselled into bed with the glazers. I’m certain if Jassim had a bid proposal like Jim and then offered 2 glazers to stay and then the entire bunch. Most would be critical. Some would use it as a reason to justify other none business views. We’d start hearing comments like “these snakes can’t be trusted” “these people do anything”.
people are using Nice and Lussane because they are owned by Jim directly… not a fellow Brit who also makes political donations and has strong political influence
But he's not the highest bidder. He's had 4 rounds now and can't outbid Sir Jim or that's what we are led to believe has happened anyway. We don't know for sure.
I keep suggesting this as a possibility but not had many takers.
It's the same thing of Labour versus Tories. Some people cannot vote Labour just because and then claim it doesn't mean they support the Tories.
It can’t be the case, it’s a state backed bid…isn’t it?
Were you the one who suggested people who support the Qatar bid also support Greenwood coming back?
At least Qatar give them some sort of employment. We in the west have plenty of blood on our hands, who's own lethally xenophobic anti-migration policy is to blame for thousands upon thousands of refugee deaths in the Mediterranean Sea.
I hope you're not suggesting that PSG are even close to being a well-run club.
He is the only full bidder. Why hasn’t Jim just offered the full price for the club ? Why is Jim, using finance to get a share and keep the glazers ? You’d think seeing as he’s not buying the full club the least Jim could do is use his own money and pay off the debt.
No. But what does that say about Ratcliffe/INEOS if they can’t even progress Nice in that league ?I hope you're not suggesting that PSG are even close to being a well-run club.
Just look at how much they've spent compared to the other teams in their league, compare their wage bill to the other teams in their league, see what kind of culture they've established at the club: drama from top to bottom, player power, sacking managers prematurely, not having a vision to build towards, signing players for their names, no planning.
Not quite, I seconded it.
There is not one single political party worth voting for in this country. I'd rather abstain than lend a vote to any of them. Life is not as tribal as people want to make it. You can not want either Jim or jassim, but still want the glazers out even If that is unlikely at this point.
They have stagnated, I admit this. Have done several times before, so I don't see your point.
My opinion of the 'logic' presented in your post is indeed that it is very low quality. You and a few others literally present your opinion as facts and then have to twist and turn to justify some of the nonsense you spout. For one, if it's a state bid, how come 'daddy' can so easily scupper it?
Rambling.
You don't need 100% of the club to be the boss and decision maker.
Malaga are an example of a club owned by a different person who happens to be the same nationality and is unlikely to have any bearing on how jassim would run us.
If he can’t improve Nice, and has widely been criticised in France and also Switzerland for being pretty clueless with running football teams. Why do you think he’ll do well at United? The glazers for all their flaws, are relatively hands off.

feck up Delaney
So why doesn’t he just offer what the glazers want to buy out all their shares?
Very good post
Has anyone gotten anything right? About a month ago, nearly every journo went with the story that Jim was going to be announced as the preferred bidder within the next week, then that never materialised. Yet some people still trust the papers totally when it comes to the exact amounts each bidder has offered, it's baffling to me
You need to reread my statement, because again you’re displaying a high level of misunderstanding “my guy”.
