Yeah that’s what I get from it today.
Anyways I just want some closure to this circus sooner rather than later. It’s dragged on for too long now.

You know what...let them think this happened today or this week, the meltdown will be funnier that way.
To be fair, Orny does not mention the contact was made over a month ago so it does feel a bit naughty from him...
Suddenly lots of briefing against Qatar today...its very encouraging
I found this funnier than I probably should haveImagine Michael Scott is Nasser and the old man is Ratcliffe
My theory is that Qatar came in at the start with a lower bid believing 1) the Glazers wanted/needed to sell outright after the failed Super League debacle 2) the Glazers couldn't afford to stay and redevelop Old Trafford etc and 3) the fans desperately wanted the Glazers out and they didn’t have a leg to stand on.
I think the Glazers are fabricating this whole ‘oh actually, Avram and Joel love the club and want to stay’ angle in an attempt to increase Qatar’s bid and have been stringing Jim Ratcliffe along to make it look like they are committed. Cue Avram turning up to cup finals to give the illusion of him being invested in staying. Why would anyone put the club up for sale and then act like they always wanted to stay?
Qatar in turn have been calling their bluff this whole time, knowing they are the only ones who can truely afford the club.
What better role mode for the Glazers at United ?
Clearly doesn’t happen like that, but it’s not too far outside the realms of possibility that contacting him happened
Ah, I see. That puts a different light on things. The involvement of the PSG owner is a surprising twist. Although perhaps not for the cynically minded.
A sunburnt arse?
Yeah, agree. The childishness from both sides have increased tenfolds now. Gloating if one bid wins over the other, when both bids have major red flags attached for several reasons, is completely baffling. Saying stuff like Brexit Jim and hoping Qatar bid wins = would also support Pol Pot ownership. Sigh.
Also explains why SJ team is speaking directly with Glazers?
Is it Saturday yet in Qatar?
That's true, I forgot about the previous meltdown on the caf. If Ornstein is correct then that move probably comes from the Glazers.
Feels like a massive wind up at the moment. Talks of rounds, bids, final bids, final bids that aren't final bids. Every day this drags on makes you wonder if the Glazers are agreed on selling or not.
You mean Avram did not say "ici c'est Manchesterrrr" to Nasser?
I would say it’s clear that is true, but they want the money now which is why they want SJ to up his bid.
It makes no sense to wait three years for what is essentially £700m when they could get billions now, make investments and literally make £700m+ EVERY YEAR for the next three years.
Are Qatar finally pulling it ? Please be it.
I have no doubt in my mind Qatar will make United a force to be reckoned with within 2-3 years minimum.
Meanwhile that other guy will be just Glazers mk 2 or even worse.

Agree. But this goes both ways. Gloating over minimal progres and gloating over bids with huge question marks attached. Really weird.
Get me Mbappe
Been offline all day - seen some clickbait in my Twitter feed but nothing else - is there anything to report on? Or is it just the usual wild speculation?
And their fans are not unhappy with what they are doing at Nice it seems according to the Athletic. So why are you unhappy about Nice then?
I'm convinced that the Glazers are just doing their own Randolph and Mortimer from Trading Places impression to see how much they can feck with people.
Still think beef is better than mutton.
The only "development" from today was that approximately 1 month ago the Glazers contacted El-Khelaifi in order to see if he can persuide Jassim into making a higher bid.
Mutton is more good than beef but there's more good beef cuts than there are good mutton cuts but the best mutton cuts are more good than most beef cuts except the best beef cuts, which are goodest.
Yeah but a lamb burger just doesn't taste right. It's good. But not as good as beef. Surely goat's better than lamb?
Is it in yet?
Strange Ornstein Go that exclusive but the info is a month old.
I honestly see the breakthrough coming tomorrow eve or Sun/Mon. Our PR guys will want to take as much of the shine away as possible from the City treble.
You are kind of proving my point for me here..
That’s what she said
Lamb is the best meet by far….followed closely by Duck, then chicken and then beef.
And regular Germans were just enjoying the economic boom, didn't go too deep into all the killing. If you get my point.
Are you a Yank? Only Americans prefer lamb.
Off to the posts that sound mildly sexual thread you go...
Glazers control timing, not PR of our club and they have no upside to time it offsetting Citys treble, they dont care ... I think it will rage on for some time yet with nothing more than drips along the way
