To be fair, I've tried to welcome them both. I'm a cheap one quid whore.

That would be a bit harsh.Nooo you will have the snowflakes on here asking for you to be banned
You don't need nor want a "massive" club if you want to compete and finance the club, it's fairly irrelevant because you would end up giving more money to the former owner in order to purchase the club. What you want is a club in a large city, with an history that is strong locally, which is the case for Nice, you also want a club with recent infrastructure so you don't have to invest in it and "waste" money early. Which leaves you with a top three in France that is Lyon, Marseille and Nice, Marseile is complicated to manage and Lyon was way more expensive though they probably had better infrastructures.About the 10th biggest club in France who haven't won a title since 1958 in the 5th biggest city in France. There not exactly massive in terms of french football.
You're making Sir Jim out to be a right dunce. He's most probably a better businessman than the Glazers, he knows how the games are played.As i was told on here earlier that is a conspiracy theory. For the life of me that how the world turns round.Educated conmen out there everywhere making folk believe a bloody sprayed transfer on the wall is worth millions to the " a guy is just of the phone said he will take the banger motor car for £500 so its 500 or nothing. The Glaziers are no different and may just be using Sir Jim as a lead pony. The Glaziers aren't good people for United so don't expect them to be fair in business either. Sure someone conned us on Maguire, probably told Woodward Chelsea's offered 75m and 180g a week to squeeze everything out of us. Its everywhere unfortunately.
Obviously joking, but on the other hand nothing on this forum would surprise me.That would be a bit harsh.
Hotel? Jassims dad owns half of londonHow is a foreigner allowed to own a whole hotel in the UK? Guess Brexit didn't really mean Brexit
Jokes aside, a few years ago Hamad Al Thani was described as the man buying London.How is a foreigner allowed to own a whole hotel in the UK? Guess Brexit didn't really mean Brexit
@Ed Woodward is the man to ask about preparing bids.How does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?
”Okay, I’m gonna bid £6b. Here it comes…. Brace yourself, Rodney….”
”It’s coming….. Uhnnnn….”
Yeah that's one of my reservations as well, even from a business point of view, you'd think spending 150-200m and turning them into the second best side in France would pay dividends from being a regular champions league side and thr extra TV money and match day revenue that would come from it, would be a no brainerHe can’t compete with Lens and Marseille? he’s about to enter his 5th season with Nice what the feck is he doing if they’re mid table at this point? The French league is poor. Lacazette is currently the leagues second top goal scorer with 25 goals he was washed up in the PL years ago.
The French league is shit. I’m not having any excuse why a multi billionaire who wants to own United and compete in the hardest league in the world can’t at least get in the mix for a Europa spot in France
I don’t buy your Swiss opinion either. How badly must it be run that he can’t even keep a club in that semi-pro league with his backing? something isn’t right with Ineos owning sports teams they’re awful at it.
Looking at him, he'd probably love that.If he refuses he gets chained to a radiator
If I remember right, Chris Wheatley at least used to be an Arsenal reporter. Not sure what his reliability would be like for Manchester United news.
United specialise in preparing a bid for players, why not owners?How does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?
”Okay, I’m gonna bid £6b. Here it comes…. Brace yourself, Rodney….”

Good question, ask anyone working in the transfer department for United. We're expert's at 'preparing' bids for players so If the source is reliable Jassim is going to fit right in here.How does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?
”Okay, I’m gonna bid £6b. Here it comes…. Brace yourself, Rodney….”

Are we still pretending this tit knows anything?Tweet

No doubt the press will be following him.Something is up, he is still in London and not back in Florida.
He didn't get the nickname the man who bought London for nothing. Swear he even gave King Charles donations in hard cash.Hotel? Jassims dad owns half of london
Indeed, Preparing A Bid FC.United specialise in preparing a bid for players, why not owners?
I think he does have sources, he was one of the first to disclose that Qatar’s bid was actually less than 5b, and that the investment of 0.8m was part of that overall bid.Are we still pretending this tit knows anything?

Obviously it entails preparing all the paperwork required to launch bids for potential multi billion pound transactionsHow does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?

“One of the first”. Loads of aggregators follow the right people and are the second and third people to repeat the stories. It doesn’t mean they have sources.I think he does have sources, he was one of the first to disclose that Qatar’s bid was actually less than 5b, and that the investment of 0.8m was part of that overall bid.
But SJ team cleared up that the investment wasn’t part of the bidI think he does have sources, he was one of the first to disclose that Qatar’s bid was actually less than 5b, and that the investment of 0.8m was part of that overall bid.
It’s not just the sum of money you are prepared to offer. For a transaction of this size there will be conditions attached.How does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?

What gets me is the way he says he understands it’s a red herring… realistically, how would he have got that information? If it was a red herring, who’d have known about it? To get that information and so quickly would mean he’d have to be randomly very very close to Avram Glazer, and even in the 10000/1 chance that that were true, why would Avram Glazer let on to his journalist friend that it’s just a red herring and he can tweet it?!Are we still pretending this tit knows anything?

Exactly. His inside info shtick breaks down with the smallest amount of critical thought but hey! He works in Qatar don’t you know?!What gets me is the way he says he understands it’s a red herring… realistically, how would he have got that information?

I think he’s probably right. But it’s common sense that Avram is money mad and will play any trick to get more money, rather than his info
It's journalist wording so they can hedge their bets when they don't really have a clue.How does one “prepare a bid” Anyway?

Literally none of the bids so far have been disclosed. There has been a little information supposedly leaked about each and that’s it.Tweet

Yeah bud weird he said that. It would also have to be disclosed to the SEC if the deal is agreed.Literally none of the bids so far have been disclosed. There has been a little information supposedly leaked about each and that’s it.
Honestly this guy knows feck all, he’s another football astrologist wanker.
