Or you know realize that there are things that matter much more than football and winning at all costs. I watch football for entertainment and I support United because I have an emotional connection to the club and it's culture and history, much of what will be ruined if we were to be owned by the Saudis. Also our club isn't shackled by any accounts, we've spent poorly in the market but we certainly don't need unlimited sugar daddy funding to compete at any levels.We are chained by them and you can't see it. #SilentDomination
Imagine for a second an owner that seeks no financial return, allows United the juggernaut that it is to spend every. single. penny we generate on the squad and facilities.
That in a nutshell is exactly what City, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern all benefit from. If you can't see the benefit in that setup for a club of our standing in the game then it's a pointless discussion.
Whatever moral stance you have on it makes zero difference. You aren't protesting here, your willing your club to edge towards obscurity when in reality the Saudi's owning a club of our size with all the media coverage it attracts would only serve to improve their behaviour and limit atrocities (as I've pointed out previously.)
Integration with western culture is the only way to make them look introspectively at their traditions and atrocities and change them for the better.
Or of course we can all sit in our armchairs on football forums patting each other on the back for sharing a better outlook on life whilst wagging our fingers at nations who don't yet share our outlook, meanwhile our club continues to be shackled unlike other clubs of our size in Europe. The latter brings nothing to the party, it's a backward mindset.
Also funny of you to mention Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern to backup your argument, all 3 of them are owned by the fans who would have much much stronger resistance to be sold to scum like the Saudi royal family as a plaything.
Also a moral stance makes zero difference for YOU, don't try to pass it off as a fact.
