But why would this not be possible under Jim? Just because he isn’t as vocal as the Qatari doesnt mean he wont fix the stadium. For any long term owner it would be weird to just let an asset rot. I understand that this would make for less money for transfers possibly, but is it only Jassim who will be renovating the stadium?Yes
Yes because the Glazers have mismanaged us for many years so we need to clear the debt and rebuild the stadium
How do we know Jassim is the right person? What decisions has he made that makes you trust him to be a good leader of a football club? (Not saying there’s any good examples of SJR neither, Im critical of both).After that we also need the best footballing people in the boardroom to make the right decisions
And since you believe this is non-state backed, will Jassim then also show up more at Old Trafford than City’s owner? (Who’s been attending a mighty 1 game in 2010).
Corruption from and in Qatar doesnt frighten you as being a big red alert to whether it would be within logic to cheat? Or that it would be possible Jassim would be able to do stuff like this?There is no worry about cheating like City because we simply don't need to, we make more than enough money already
Some of the 115 allegations against City include leaked documents that money was paid to agents directly by the state-owned entity Abu Dhabi United Group which is illegal but only found out if leaked. Do you honestly think we wont go this way and try to do the same, when our main rival does this? You can basically only compete with a state by doing the same shady deals as a non transparent state (Ineos will have a hard time and much bigger reputation at stake to pull these shady deals off).
If you dont believe we will cheat/pay agents under the table with Jassim, then what’s the point if that’s the way to get to the big players and compete? We’ll be outbid by City and others who do cheat this way. It wont be even unless we do the same.
