Im not pro brexit but I am laughing at the lunacy that one brexiteer is akin to BJs ethics of what brexit was about.
Its lazy ignorant thinking. As is the thinking that those not wanting Qatar were doing so solely for moral reasons.
Big time
AND YOU CONTINUE MAKING THE WORST POSSIBLE ASSUMPTIONS
Love how people act like they have knowledge of deal makings on that level
Ratcliffe is just giving the Glazers 1.5 billion for them to line their pockets with. I know this because some guy with a Qatar flag in his Twitter name told me so.
Absolutely. You don’t become a billionaire without knowing how to play the game.
Ultimately nobody knows yet how this will pan out, both on and off the pitch, but feck it, it’s something.
Just seems like vanity from the Glazers. They didn't want to give up the club completely, they probably see it as their dad's legacy.
I don’t believe that 25% nonsense.
These 2 despicable cnuts will likely outlive Ratcliffe so what exactly does he gain for 25% going up slowly over so many years.

I wasn’t wrong, I never said Qatar would win I said they would bid £7- 7.2 billion to buy for 100% of the club and this has or will be proven very soon, but what I did say is that this will divide the fanbase more than any other decision and here we are Johnny smart asses want to feel Good about themselves that Ratcliffe will keep the Glazers in charge for at least another 3 years.
Let’s all have a f….party because the Goblins are going continue to destroy the club in the next three years. Some fans would support the club who ever owns them and I’m one of them.
I genuinely believe that INEOS has basically just made a very significant error, if he bought 51% the fans would have given him a chance, this deal will be the death of the club, the only positive is Paul Mitchel will be appointed as a sweetener in the next few weeks. And now he could go back in with a 51% without any objection as there is no rival bid?
No its not. Its just an online vernacular; I think mainly popularized through twitch where chatting in emotes is a big thing
"meme" is such a nazi thing to sayAlt right
It's an internet meme mate.
You're absolutely correct. I think it's reasonable, though, to be confident that Ratcliffe and INEOS are not "just giving the Glazers 1.5 billion to line their pockets with" as some of the Qatar flags on Twitter have been claiming. Mega-corporations don't just throw around that sort of money for no reason; they will be getting some fairly big concessions from the Glazers as part of this and I imagine it will eventually lead to a majority takeover.
I find all of this rather amusing.
Someone in one of my WhatsApp group chats said this, we would have some wild Away Days!
Probably, I've only seen it used by far right morons on Twitter though.
It would be 100% in 3-6 years and majority control in as little as 1 year. That's what's been reported.
Because the crossed out has worked so bad for City, Chelsea (under Abramovich) and Newcastle?Glad that the Qataris won’t be getting in, reserving my judgment on Ratcliffe until details of the deal is clearer.
Condolences to the fans who might not get to watch the clubsign FM-style transfers every summer windowinvest in its infrastructure, as I'm sure that was the primary reason they wanted the Qataris
doesn’t take a genius to workout how it pans out. Glazers remain in full control, limited investment, debt remains and united remain a cash cow for the leeches to line their pockets. That’s how a SJ R 25% bid works in the short/medium term. Don’t believe the glazer spin this week, they’ve played us all brilliantly again.
What alt right political movement has claimed copium? Last I saw it was something meme traders used to describe clinging to the slimmest of margins that something positive would happen from a very bad trade they took.
Looks like this decade of mediocrity will continue for a while longer I guess.
I don't see much changing with INEOS and Ratcliffe if they win the bid and they sure as hell won't be clearing the debt.

What an incel thing to say.
I'm conceding defeat. I'm probably colored by a few far right nerds I've seen use it.
And they say irony is dead
I genuinely laughed out loud. Bravo!
Some journo (pundit, random guy who posts from mother's basement) told them. Because he obviously knows all details about this deal. I mean...he tweeted. It must be true.
Prepare for lots of ownership drama in the next years. Who is undermining whom, who has vetoed that, who is in charge of what, why the full ownership is taking so long to be completed and so on.
A lifeline was given to the leeches, instead of demanding a full sale. Apparently it was the only way Ratcliffe could compete with Jassim’s offer but who knows if he realizes the big picture and in what complicated mess he is getting into along with fecking United‘s future.

What was his Brexit stance then?
Hence my post earlier about having Ole Jimmy over a barrel. Cnut will will end up paying more than Jaseem would of.
We grow copious amounts of ganja
The past few years have shown us that competent businessmen can too often actually be remarkably incompetent and powered almost entirely on ego, and can cause total chaos when suddenly thrust into a new level of limelight. The wedding of United-Jimmy-Glazers seems like a frightening mismatch and it's difficult to imagine any sort of functioning structure will be in place for many years.
Don’t care. Everyone that voted for Brexit was a selfish cnut.
Could someone clarify whether SJR taking a 25% share would still be challenged by the class A shareholders. From reports it sounds like he is buying only the Glazers shares. It also sounds like the path to ‘majority ownership’ will be to buy out the remaining Glazer shares of the next few years which would still discriminate against the class A shareholders.
It seems to me that the only way to get around the class A shareholder issue was to play the long game in the hope SJ would drop out from the bidding so it would become a non issue.
But my question is, Is this not still an issue for the class A shareholders as the offer for full ownership was on the table at a premium. Just because it is not there now and the Glazers have decided to enrich themselves can they still not take legal action?

you're not really making a good case for that
Don’t give them more words they don’t understand to be offended about, you KarenStop being such a white knight.
SJR cannot afford the club without borrowing.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a holding company or a secured loan 25% or full ownership it doesn’t matter. The club is finished as a top player in this new football era.
Love United but I’m done.

This a thousand times. There's no way Jim is putting his money into a club unless it leads to him having complete b control over it.
I suspect his bid was accepted a while ago as for one thing we know he has the funds.
You better watch it, hypocrites will come for you with "but he is our cnut now"
I mean sure, the fact that he's a competent businessman is no guarantee at all that everything is going to turn out well for the club.
What I'm saying is, I'd be absolutely staggered if Ratcliffe is "just giving the Glazers 1.5 billion to line their pockets with" like so many are claiming. I'm reasonably certain that INEOS will not be making this investment without assurances from the Glazers' end, and that's supported by news stories we're seeing about the offer.
