I fail to see how Trump is worse than the oil barons. Like.. really? We're talking about beheadings, stonings, burning people alive...
Glazers looking to sell off a minority share & bring in a new Investor
- Thread starter UnitedSofa
- Start date
Could all this alleged investment in players (Felix, Casemiro, Caicedo) be linked to this potential sale?
31 days? If so, club books have been passed on a while ago.
Guys, i know that every Man Utd fan should know this but what to say, i don't.
How much stakes exactly Glazers have? And how much stakes (in %) are on the market?
And question for someone with knowledge about these things? I read for years that value of our club is between 3 and 4 billion. How the feck they can get 6 billion?
Thanks in advance for answer

Bit too late, they've brought the Barcodes now.

Trump has no morality at all and clearly does have blood on his hands. 5 deaths on Jan 6th, completely complicit in actions like Kyle Rittenhouse killing 3 BLM protestors to name one of many such incidents, his supporters showing up with weapons at FBI offices just last week. You could argue that as awful as those regimes are they at least do the things they do out of a misguided belief that they are acting correctly in accordance with their beliefs. Trump would also make us pine for the days of the Glazers, it would be completely about his vanity and ego and he wouldn't risk a penny of his own funds to improve anything.
Great post. I also think MUFC was offered to the global elite. One don’t have to invest 2 billion and wait for a couple decades to have an iconic club. Iconic? Legendary club. The Glazers will suck out every penny from the deal. USD6 billion net from this deal is a nice capital gain.I posted this earlier in another thread but I'll post it here for those that missed it. Here's why I believe there's legs to this story.
I actively trade the stock market on a daily basis, about 2 days ago there was some insane and sustained volume on options on the Man Utd stock. Specifically call options (you buy contracts worth 100 shares each and you state a price you think the stock is going to and by which date, high risk, high reward, they expire worthless if it doesn't happen).
To put in perspective how much this is abnormal for the Man Utd stock, trading volume was up 3500% on the stock from your average day.
The call options are for the price to hit $14 within the next 31 days. There has been a large amount of money placed on this happening.
Fast forward two days later and Musk makes a joke about *buying Manchester United and Bloomberg (responsible for all serious market news and data) publish a story about Glazers looking to sell a stake.
There's one of two things at play here, Musk has taken part in some clear market manipulation (which he's been found guilty for a few times) and this is a planned joke on the market in general. When something like this happens it attracts day traders to jump in which creates more volume, it happens to a lot of random stocks, see GME, AMC and BBBY for examples.
OR
A stake in Manchester United is being offered around the wealthy in America and someone with that kind of inside information is having a punt the stock going up.
In my opinion is the latter of the two.
I would ask you to make this simpler to understand but maybe you have and I'm just incredibly thick.
They are evil in different ways.
They wont be making 6 billion by selling minority shares though.
Its probably another nice little nest egg for them while keeping control of their golden goose.
Knowing our luck the three consortiums will be Asset Strippers Inc, Hitler Corp and James Corden. But if I'm wrong I'll blow @esmufc07 full of tranquilliser darts and lob him into the canal.
That's not what they are apparently doing...
I fear for the club if someone better doesn't buy us. They have clearly demonstrated their incompetence. They have destroyed the team and have left the stadium in dire shape.
Without major investment they can't improve the team. They are not going to put their money in. So there is no major investment. And of course their incompetence means even major investment doesn't get you success. So if the team continues to deteriorate or at best stagnate, without CL our revenues will keep falling, which will perpetuate our mediocrity. At this point this is spiraling down fast and they can't do anything about it.
If they don't sell now, its only a matter of time before almost a distress sale. God knows how that's going to turn out for the club.

Key word being apparently.
Right? All of this is speculation
Actually... Maybe this consortium wants to buy the club outright eventually but it's headed by Robinho and he's doesn't want to be fecked over by folk saying he's joining "Manchester" again?

Jim would be the best signing of the summer
This is far more exciting than ANY signing ever
Of course it is. Similar to the DoF role days after Woodward had chants about him going to die, and so on.
The club have done this kind of shit every time there is an issue. So bloody obvious.
Yes Ratcliff. Now push them
This will snowball I reckon, come January we will have new owners in.
I would think we would protest even harder now, the Glazers are jolting
Very strong momentum growing of the Glazers selling up
United looking to splash big money during the rest of the window.
Has something happened?

Sell, you greedy feckers, sell. 6bn how much more money could you ever fecking need, just let the club go, you don't care about it or football anyway.
Been obvious for a while in my opinion. There was a Ratcliffe puff piece about why he would be a great owner last week by the very journalist who broke this story. The Chelsea bid was to get his name out there in my opinion.
United supporting billionaire wants to buy the club?
If he turns out to secretly be the Zodiac Killer or something I'm going to be really pissed off.
Jim has always been a United fan and loves football too.
I'm getting emotional here. Imagine getting rid of them
There's lots of smoke, maybe they've finally taken the fecking hint.
Sell before the fecking transfer window closes atleast if you ever going to for fecks sake!
Maybe not sale, but confirmation of agreement reached or pending sale.
i think these rumors are all part of our random strategy so far this summer. I hope I’m wrong
Just read this myself, let's hope it's the beginning of the end of the Glazers.
Agree, but can see this rumbling on longer than the FDJ saga.
