Club Sale | It’s done!

[RedDevilUnited369]

One of the greatest modern day heists you’ll witness in your lifetime.

I do respect Malcom for how this played out. From installing the Class B share clause to instructing the kids to rinse the club yearly in the form of dividends and then sell at a premium when it comes to the end of the pay run.

My man foresaw the future and left his great grandkids living good.

It’s also really sad that it’s taken for the club to be on the market before the powers that be stopped this type of scam from ever happening again.

Absolutely killed this club. When you look back and think about some of the decisions made. You realise that it was all about the money. Down to the very end. Sickening.

They have to go…

Good to be back!

What are the Muppetiers saying about Ineos now? I remember seeing you saying they’re very pro-Ineos and made up a load of pony about Jim being close to sealing the deal?

(If it was someone else, I apologise )

While there are still two parties for these parasites to play against each other, this is never going to end.

It’s mad that if Jassim gets the club, the amount of debt he’ll be clearing will essentially mean that he’s paying for the Glazers’ actual purchase of the club, retrospectively.

As well as paying them - way over the odds - for his own purchase of the club…

How mad is that…?

Mad as anything although I find supporters undervaluing the club equally mesmerizing. If I owned United I'd be asking for at least 9 billion US.

It does seem like we went from Kane or Osimhen to Hojlund pretty quick. Perhaps we had two lists of targets depending on outcome and Hojlund is on the budget list.

I’ll give you that, it does seem to have gone pretty quiet for a WC striker. Hopefully it’s revisited at the end of the window.

 

[Plant0x84]

What you saying?

They are both long past their prime?

Hey now, I resemble that remark!!

 

[Plant0x84]

Any excitement for a prospective 92 Foundation Utd?

I do understand the excitement. I’d share in it if we were certain it wasn’t a state-owned bid, But even if it’s not everything on Jassims side is so shady and clandestine. Too many unanswered questions makes me feel uneasy.

Why? Apart from the history and fanbase what makes it worth that much? £800 million debt. A billion to be spent on stadium and more on training ground. First team that still needs a fortune spending on it. What makes it worth 9 billion?

 

[Fanta Stick]

Hey now, I resemble that remark!!

If it's any consolation I never had a prime to get past.

 

[Plant0x84]

103 more posts. Some like to see quality of posts but for me it’s all about the stats.

That’s fair, although I was a few hundred ahead until my unfair and unjust first 2 week ban
for a crime I didn't commit. This man promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Red Cafe underground. Today, still wanted by the modmins I survive as a soldier of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find me....maybe you can hire The P-Team."

Erm, got a bit carried away there…. Sorry!

Nothing mad about it. Jassim doesn’t even have the money, he is/would be as lucky as the Glazers. Qatar/his dad will be paying for it.
No poster should “feel bad” for poor Jassim or Qatar.

We haven’t won any major trophies for years and we’re not close.

The fact there has only ever been two legit potential buyers tells you it’s overpriced at the moment.

There is no money to be made from this club as an owner until we’re back winning doubles and trebles again.

Banned on Muppetiers AND Redcafe? You rebel!

What was the joke?

 

[sepulturite]

We left reality 2 weeks ago. This is hell

Feels like we're on the Event Horizon

 

[Berbaclass]

I said they should make a edit of the Downfall Hitler reaction meme video thing where Ratcliffe finds out Jassim is in exclusive negotiations

There was nothing in my post to suggest ‘poor Jassim’, that wasn’t the sentiment of what I was saying, at all.

You can replace ‘Jassim’ with ‘whoever clears their debt’.

My point, if you can look past your own gripes, is about the criminal nature of the Glazers’ purchase of Utd.

A future owner - WHOEVER THAT MAY BE - will retrospectively pay for the Glazers purchase of Utd as well as paying the Glazers a wildly inflated fee for the club itself… that’s what mad.

And far from ‘nothing mad about it’ - it’s just been made illegal by the PL, 18 years too late.

It’s disgusting.

The only reason its even as high as 6 is people buying it for non business reasons, the share price has us at 3 billion. If you spent 9 billion on a business you'd expect it to be making maybe 800-900m profit annually, not 100-200m

Xavi strikes me as the kind of guy who has an opinion on literally everything

Is that xavi pretending to know an AI generated man? The same way credit suisse let him serve on their board for 7 years, all of this long before the AI technology would have been developed

They should get some of the Nice players to come out and talk about Jim…

Probably shouldn't

 

[Pickle85]

Because the opinion of a man who most here would likely agree is a bellend carries so much weight?

 

[Rhyme Animal]

Probably shouldn't

I dunno Berbz, I’m sure the club captain could chip in with some choice words.

@Plant0x84 Welcome back

 

[Sweet Square]

Funny how everyone else in world football knows it’s a state bid.

 

[T00lsh3d]

I don’t remember Xavi being like this as a player, but since his managerial career, the De Jong saga last summer…..he strikes me as a pathological liar who’d sell his own mother for the right price

You must not remember the Fabregas saga then. Even as an Arsenal disliker, it made me find him insufferable.

Top minds of redcafe have said that Jassim doesn’t exist though

No I don’t actually. Caveat that if it happened anytime between 2000 and 2014 I was probably way too smashed for fine details

Doesn’t matter. Xavi’s a ‘pathological liar’ now.

*Sir Alex Ferguson hails Jassim as a decent guy and a good owner*

“OMGZ tHeY’ve BRaiNwAsHeD Frogie!!!1!!”

“Sad day for the Universe, I have no romance” etc.

I didn't read that in the Times so I don't believe you

Are we sure he isn't thinking of the World Cup Jassim?

[clarkydaz]

Isnt that an old quote from Xavi?

 

[Big Ben Foster]

Do some people really think Jassim doesn't exist? I thought that was just one big Caf meme.
