I got a bit of abuse when I dared suggest there was no chance the Glazers would sell the club.

I agree he's trying to do good. It's ableism: since he's dyslexic, if only he'd put as much energy into supporting dyslexia.He’s fecking awful. Zero personality convinced that money has given him one.
I’ve met him a few times (pre global superstar rise). Another poster here has also, and knows the family, and did raise some countenance to what I’d seen, so I’ve tempered a little.
He’s the Instagram version of black activism and collectivism. He’s not ‘in’ communities or the culture. He’s often cosplaying and bandwagoning. I don’t think he’s malicious, he probably thinks he’s doing a world of good. But I find him to be the least authentic superstar.
None of this to take away from what an outrageous race driver he is. He’s in rarefied air as a race car driver.
He also does huge amounts of good with the money he has made. Nobody needs to do that and he does. But I’d want him nowhere near my football club. He’s not a sharp businessman. He’s not an insightful person that is engaging and thought provoking. Even in the early comments he’s already selling blackness as an angle. Go to communities. Exclusively. Do not jump into bed with free market capitalists. They are the oppressors and attaching blackness to the news cycle, is not helping anyone but himself.
A previous takeover tumour broke your heart didn't it?
Is that you Howson fanboy?Is that you Michael Knighton?
Yeah, he stopped posting after being outed as either that moron himself or a copy and paste merchant of a moronAnd also @Dennis Viollet
Can't say I watch Howson or any United fan Youtubers much but with how angry you seem to be it makes sense now why you're a big fan of Goldbridge.Is that you Howson fanboy?
I'm a big fan of people not spouting lies. Goldbridge I'm ambivalent on but claiming he makes shit up exposes anyone as a clueless sheep repeating stuff off Twitter.Can't say I watch Howson or any United fan Youtubers much but with how angry you seem to be it makes sense now why you're a big fan of Goldbridge.
What have green and gold scarves got to do with anything? They’re just a tiny fraction of what the fans are trying to do.Sticking together is irrelevant. What difference would that make to anything? Unless the Glazers are living under a rock they know they're as popular as crackling at a vegan dinner.
It's been 16 years. You can give some bloke as much of your money as you like to take his merchandise off his hands but stop insisting it makes any difference.
There ain't going to be a 3am call to Tampa "Lads they've just sold the 11,000th scarf. It's time to move"
Mate no offence but you're the reason why convincing fans every 7 months there's a chance they'll sell is such a lucrative business.
"Why not show them how you feel? Stick together, a United front against the parasites... for just £8.99"
I don't dispute that. Just pointing out that stating he doesn't have sources is false.Then read the journalists.
Brent's job is to sensationalize and get clicks / views - even moreso than standard journalists. He's an entertainer not a reputable source.
Just read that, big money still to be made and hopefully where there's smoke, there's fire. If Elon came in, no more money issues.No worries mate, here’s an article which has a bit more of a deep dive into what I’ve said earlier if anyone wants to read:

If it were just about expenditure, then we should be a successful club, both on and off the pitch?Sometimes i wonder if its a case of 'better the devil you know' when it comes to the Glazers. I mean 1.2 bil spent the last 6 years, 2.5bil since their tenure started (somehting like that i read). We have spent nearly £300 more in the last 6 years than even the likes of City and PSG.
For all the understandable hate the Glazers get, the 'lack of spending' is somehting that always puzzles me.
You see why they do it though. It clearly works.The funny thing is he has never physically said that has he? its the journalist interpretation of what his spokesman said who didnt even say he wants to buy the club, only that if its for sale he is one of the potential buyers and explained the reason why he might be interested. There are so many layers there and I have to pay to read that?? the article's title makes it seem like the words came directly out of his mouth. Fecking clickbaiters.
Mate I’m probably younger than you. Boomer ffs.What that guy wrote is a lie started by Howson, a guy charging people money for something that is free and who has wished death on Goldbridge.
I'd suggest a bit of googling because he's a polarising figure, especially with the Redcafe boomers.
Apart from you parroting other people's thoughts, show me solid proof.Mate I’m probably younger than you. Boomer ffs.
I’m just media literate - I’m sorry I criticised daddy Goldbridge, hope you like, subscribe and comment and the press the alert button for up to date content!
He’s a media personality. He’s a creation. He’s a jumped up forum poster. Why are you so defensive over him I don’t understand the logic.
I’m not going to bat for any specific journalists over this story either. But Goldbridge won’t know anything about a fecking takeover about Manchester United before actual reputable journalists. Hell even posters here will know more from simply reading the figures the club puts out and watching the ticker.
Even sports journalist aren't going to find out. With respect to them any news will trickle down through the financial press in the US. Guys like Tom McDemott, Henry Winter or Neil Custis simply aren't in the same world.Mate I’m probably younger than you. Boomer ffs.

What exactly do you want proof about? That a fully grown adult called Brent prats about and exaggerates on YouTube and Twitch? It’s something he admits himself. It isn’t a secret or accusation.Apart from you parroting other people's thoughts, show me solid proof.
You can't because your enlightened 'facts' are just made up. I won't bother anymore.
Obviously it’s a fecking disgrace they were allowed to buy the club and the real villains in all this are the football and government authorities who let it happen but I completely agree with this in the sense that the debt and dividends haven’t been an issue for some time - and the idea we couldn’t win under glazernomics was an absurd one. You give the highest net spend over the last decade to a good manager with a good recruitment team and you will win shit. Football shouldn’t be hard with the resource advantage we enjoyed. I also don’t buy the idea that they didn’t want to win - you don’t spend 80m on Maguire and 50m on a RB to finish 4th - it’s not ambition that has the problem it has been total incompetence and not hiring the right people. Finance hasn’t been the problem - being run by footballing morons was.Sometimes i wonder if its a case of 'better the devil you know' when it comes to the Glazers.

There's still a big chance they sell and I'll go as far as saying that they'll sell in the next 24 monthsI got a bit of abuse when I dared suggest there was no chance the Glazers would sell the club.
Well that's what I meant too. They have no intention of selling right now. I think they have secret hopes for some new version of the superleague and they're scared they might miss out on a billion in revenue a seasonThere's still a big chance they sell and I'll go as far as saying that they'll sell in the next 24 months
Starting to think he has multiple accounts on here...And also @Dennis Viollet

Yeah won't get excited until top sources reportSo that's Jim, Knighton, the Saudis, Bezos, The Red Knights, Musk and Dubai buying the club. I'm sure I'm missing several out
All this apparent interest spanning a number of years and yet not a single bid, doesn't seem odd to anyone?

Yep, agreed. I'd be thrilled if a champion like him partially owned United.Always fascinating how many people immediately dislike an outspoken black man.
Tbh it doesn't stop there. You see it with women, other races, other classes etc. Unless they toe the line, in that case they're one of the good ones.Always fascinating how many people immediately dislike an outspoken black man.
I have a feeling it would be with strategic partnerships. As I mentioned above:This would be too steep for pretty much anyone. 3.75bn + 0.5bn to clear the debt + 1.0 bn for new facilities + 0.25 bn for new players.
That's 5.5bn to make the club first class all round.
Ridiculous!
Chelsea went for 1bn less and the club actually owns the stadium and a lot of land, with a much bigger potential and existing fanbase than Chelsea.This would be too steep for pretty much anyone. 3.75bn + 0.5bn to clear the debt + 1.0 bn for new facilities + 0.25 bn for new players.
That's 5.5bn to make the club first class all round.
Ridiculous!
You are forgetting the money the club make, the 0.25b for players will be covered by the club - the issue is debt and new facilitiesThis would be too steep for pretty much anyone. 3.75bn + 0.5bn to clear the debt + 1.0 bn for new facilities + 0.25 bn for new players.
That's 5.5bn to make the club first class all round.
