Don't call me Shirley
Knew he reminded me of something.
They never say anything.I'm not one for paparazzi following people around when they're just going about their lives but feck that wanker Avram. Of course we already knew he couldn't care less, but somehow he managed to come off worse in that video than I'd expect. Which is impressive considering he didn't even say anything!
Absolute cnut.

Yeah the difference in systems is key here. A franchise can go just about anywhere. A little rebranding and you're good. For clubs in England with long storied histories things are different, there is a strong link to the place where they are from and that cannot be neglected operationally.Doc, that's fantastic. The Raiders are a funny one indeed, I decided to follow them because they were the first team I watched play, well the other team was Dallas Cowboys and they were too popular. Anyway, I kept looking out for their results for years but eventually stopped, what shocked me after decade later was when I found out they had become Oakland (again) ...and it didn't bother fans. I think they've moved to Las Vegas now and again fans seem accepting. Okay I get it they're The Raiders and it's just a franchise. The huge difference is that we're not simply United, the Manchester part is key. The club is intrinsically linked to Manchester...as you said it's a long history. I suspect the Glazers don't understand or are ignorant of what clubs mean to fans and local areas. I think they wouldn't have had the same resentment Stateside even of they owned a big franchise. And that's a part of the issue.
And another square on the victim blaming bingo card ticked off.What happened before that? Genuine question.
Well you think the protesters deserved to be beaten up as you said before, there was no violence until the police started smashing people.So it's all the police's fault.
I'm sure the copper who got glassed did it to himself, the cops were throwing bottles at each other and it was obviously plain clothes police who kicked the door in and were pissing about on the pitch. None of it was the goody goody protesters, oh no, butter wouldn't melt in their mouths.
If sponsors were targeted, why would you think that sponsors would not come back after the Glazers have sold up?but my main issue is around the fans who are advocating damaging the club to get them out. Trying to negatively impact the clubs revenue to reach this goal will not have the outcome that anybody wants,
The police presence will be through the roof next home game. Anybody trying to get into the ground or stop the teams getting to the ground will be risking arrest which would lead to long bans from football hefty fines and a criminal record that could hamper your chances of getting a decent job.Is it?
Why would big sponsors come back after the Glazers are gone if we all do our best to get rid of the sponsors? They will need some guarantee that fans wouldn't do the same thing to the new owners, so they will sit it out for a couple years and by that time we will be a 2nd rate Tottenham.If sponsors were targeted, why would you think that sponsors would not come back after the Glazers have sold up?
The Glazers see our club as a cash cow. Cash flow is the only thing that's going to convince them to sell up. They've been here 16 years already, they'll ride any other obstruction out but with cash flow, that's the only thing that forces their hand (and I would think send a warning to any potential buyers of how to treat the club).

I don’t see too many testicles other than my own, but I don’t have a 6 inch rats tail hanging off my ballsI understand why he avoids the public eye now.
He looks like a shaved testicle.
How exacty?Make them bleed money until they end up bankrupt
Stop being a prat!And another square on the victim blaming bingo card ticked off.
As I said before, prove that.Well you think the protesters deserved to be beaten up as you said before, there was no violence until the police started smashing people.
Just the little matter of whether it will happen again, that might put a lot of them off.If sponsors were targeted, why would you think that sponsors would not come back after the Glazers have sold up?

I know people that were there who said that’s what happened, do you have any evidence to the contrary? I know your opinion is that they deserved to get beat up.As I said before, prove that.
Heresay and you obviously didn't read my later post.I know people that were there who said that’s what happened, do you have any evidence to the contrary? I know your opinion is that they deserved to get beat up.
One of the worlds biggest clubs will struggle to get sponsors. Quality logic thatJust the little matter of whether it will happen again, that might put a lot of them off.
What later post? I only read the post where you said United fans deserved to get battered, what did you say after?Heresay and you obviously didn't read my later post.
I would have thought reading comprehension was a prerequisite for a newbie, obviously not.
As I said, heresay.What later post? I only read the post where you said United fans deserved to get battered, what did you say after?
You’ve asked me to provide evidence, my evidence is that I know people who were there and that’s what they said happened. Were you there? Do you know anyone that was there? To back up your claim that Man United fans were in the wrong and they deserved to get beat up?
My reading comprehension is bad? You can’t even answer a couple of simple questions, I asked this:As I said, heresay.
Me?Is this guy going from thread to thread and troll
Sponsors would know that fans are boycotting because of the glazers. If the glazers were to up and sell, are you seriously suggesting that sponsors would not be foaming at the mouth to sponsor United? There'd be a massive windfall of goodwill that sponsors would be able to capitalize on, especially shirt sponsors, hence, to think that sponsors wouldn't come back is an unlikely scenario.Why would big sponsors come back after the Glazers are gone if we all do our best to get rid of the sponsors? They will need some guarantee that fans wouldn't do the same thing to the new owners, so they will sit it out for a couple years and by that time we will be a 2nd rate Tottenham.
A warning to potential buyers? Do you think some sugar daddy owner will magically appear? Do you believe there is some divine right that United get a benevolent benefactor or are entitled to success?
If someone buys the club, and they take out as much as the Glazers do right now that will give them a rate of return of 1% per year. Who is going to waste money like that? So you first have to find an idiot that is willing to waste a couple billion on a club without any return. Arsenal former players have actually found some rich idiot fan to actually do this apparently with Daniel Ek. Would be nice if we first get one too and then try to get rid of the Glazer, that would actually be a plan, if Neville first got someone that is actually willing to buy the club that would be more useful than the nonsense he is doing right now.
Yep he's on a massive wind up or he doesn't get one of the things that make you human, the hope for better future, even if it means risking the present it's a risk most people would take.Is this guy going from thread to thread and troll
The business will have to pay for policing.The police presence will be through the roof next home game.
