Qatar plus the minority bids
Could be Ineos and the minority bids, though. Helping Ratcliffe buy off the other shareholders who are angry they're not getting enough cash.
Can't see Qatar ceding the one hundred percent control they are after.
I have another take on these two leaks. I think Glazers are playing their last hand. I think they played "no communication" game to see if SJ will lose his patience and up his bid. They lost that game. Now they are playing their last hand "we dont really need to sell, you guys go away". If SJ or Sir James Arthur Ratcliffe FIChemE dont respond to any of these, they'll just accept what they have. I think we are reaching the end game now.
Doubt it. Glazers want more money out of Jassim, but maybe the multiple party angle would see other investors join Qatar, but that could cede too much power.
Be a better deal than most, though. Cannot see it.
Maybe Ratcliffe will join in, too? We can sign Ross Barkley and Neymar in the same window.
If they’re gonna stay, I at least wanna see them squirm and be shown to be absolute mugs publicly.
Those feckers are going to get loaded no matter what, getting anything more than three bill for an asset none of them put anytjing into?
Joke is on us.
I'm anti-Qatar but could get with them
and more investors. Could bring my QatarOut banner and my ElliottManagementOut banners to the same match
