Using weapons designed, manufactured and sold by the UK Government. What's your point?
If this goes through then thats me done as a United supporter.
The Saudi Royal family is a monarchy who is actively causing a potential genocide in Yemen(Not to forget their domestic policy). Its one thing watching the Glazers doing what any half decent business owners would do but with the Saudi royal family its a completely different level of disgusting.
People tend to vote governments they don't like out. What's your point with all these whataboutisms?Using weapons designed, manufactured and sold by the UK Government. What's your point?
Problem with Saudis isnt capitalism....For me the question is not who ownes us, the question is how are we owned?
The glazers don't know how to own a football club thats for sure, if the saudis know better, let them buy us.
And please stop with the double standards. We all live in a world where we have people owning millions and billions of dollars, euros, swiss francs or whatever and don't know what to do with it, on the same day we all know there are millions of people who don't have enough to eat or drink and often die because of it. We have to start to protest against the whole current system (capitalism), not against a saudi take over of a football club.
The Saudi's IMO will have taken note of how the Abu Dhabi lot have structured City and will go a similar route.What will happen if the Saudis take over? Where will they begin to bring the club back competing for titles?
I don't have all the answers. Never did I say so but you can't discount what I said about the role of matchgoing fans in our predicament. They are the most critical agent of change in all of this mess we are in.Another non match going fan with all the answers.
That’s probably right, but having owners with a history like these guys is not something I will be happy about. Success is great, but it’s not the most important factor for United imo.The Saudi's IMO will have taken note of how the Abu Dhabi lot have structured City and will go a similar route.
Yes - they have to announce even if there are talks or its open to manipulation of insider tradingEven if no money changed hands, no contracts were signed? just an agreement?
He posted his first post again about the purchase of United. It would be more than a noodle sponsor.Could be anything though?
New noodle sponsor?
Imagine them changing our badge... removing the devil or something like that.
You made an arbitrary distinction to justify having a sugar daddy club. The point is if the Saudis buy the club there is no way you can say a word to Chelsea or City of being a plastic club. It's a delusion to think otherwise.Not when you consider the context of each point.
My first point about it being different to City and Chelsea when they were taken over by rich owners is valid.
We are an established club and the most successful in the country. They were most certainly not.
What is the maximum limit? You just made that up. United have had one of the highest wage bills in Europe and have spent more than anyone in the last 4-5 years, bar City, without offloading that many players.The point about competing with Europe’s elite simply points out that in order to compete year in year out with these clubs we need owners that allow us to consistently spend to our maximum limit and invest heavily in the club and facilities (not drain our funds.)
This is what those clubs all benefit from.
What about Liverpool? What is your excuse for why they don't need a sugar daddy owner?The major difference being we just need an owner to let us realise our potential and release what we already earn as a major brand in world football.
If we do not have this basis of ownership then we will always be chasing this pack of clubs, not leading them.
Very risky game. But also another well known Saudi journalist proposed the questions to United fans on how they would react to a Saudi purchase. Definitely something in this.He is milking it but if he is a senior regime insider he is going to be claiming that his social media accounts were hacked to survive this.
That's one thing that would really worry me.Imagine them changing our badge... removing the devil or something like that.
Hopefully. You can see them being desperate to beat the other states and going all out for the best.The Saudi's IMO will have taken note of how the Abu Dhabi lot have structured City and will go a similar route.
Yup.....might be a whole lot of ‘reverse gear’ coming into play soon.I'm ready to kid myself in to why it's ok
And the US and Germany and probably loads more. It's like with China, following with action on those human rights violations is only feasible with poor nations where you can't make any money.Using weapons designed, manufactured and sold by the UK Government. What's your point?
Yeah, it won't be the usual takeover. We have the money, we just don't have the will or the way up top. One would hope there'd be changes.Yup.....might be a whole lot of ‘reverse gear’ coming into play soon.
Ironic thing is we’ve spent bucketloads if money recently, we’ve just bought mostly shite. Fred cost the same as KDB and was only a couple of seasons apart
You mean, they might hold executives to account for non-financial performance?Yeah, it won't be the usual takeover. We have the money, we just don't have the will or the way up top. One would hope there'd be changes.
What’s the city owners done to cause atrocities?Sorry but it doesn’t sit right with me that people on here are trying to downplay the atrocities committed by the Saudis after all the shit that the forum has given city about their owners’ similar affairs
Either way but I think its incredibly unprofessional to be so overexcited.Very risky game. But also another well known Saudi journalist proposed the questions to United fans on how they would react to a Saudi purchase. Definitely something in this.
There was a NSFW link posted in a thread a while ago to a video of someone in Sheik Mansour’s family I believe abusing someone and other stuff has been mentioned but I didn’t really care to follow the detailsWhat’s the city owners done to cause atrocities?
Also the Saudi atrocities in Yemen where they are dropping British bomb, I’d like to know what people are doing about the British governments involvement.
I won’t get started on our American owners who belong to a country that if they don’t like you then they will invade you and take your assets but that’s ok!
The British and American governments don’t own any sports teams through which to launder their image. Not seeing the link.What’s the city owners done to cause atrocities?

They will without doubt go all out to unsurp all the competitors no question and they'll do it IMO. Someone like a Ragnick would be brought into to oversee the recruitment too.Hopefully. You can see them being desperate to beat the other states and going all out for the best.
