United Thread - 2022/23

I think the Glazers would be crazy to sell now, with the prospect of a super-league getting closer and closer.

If/when that happens, the value of the 10 founding clubs with all the extra perks and non-relegation etc. will make them more valuable than any other clubs.

The £5Bn figure for United could become £10Bn overnight.

Looks like ratcliffe is about to bid for united ownership?

Imagine if he bought them for 5b on a leveraged buy out.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe rumoured to be interested in buying the Salford Grenadiers as they will have to be renamed

Another non tax paying bastard

"in September 2020, Ratcliffe officially changed his tax residence from Hampshire to Monaco, a move that it is estimated will save him £4 billion in tax."

They could sell a % of the club get a cash injection into there bank account [emoji851]

Hahaha these rags surely have to realise at some point how much they are being used by all this clickbait, I've heard Jeff bezos is also interested and is considering joint ownership with God.
The best of it is a vast majority of them actually believe this shite, I find myself purposely sitting near them in the canteen so I can listen in on their "football" chats

 

[its grim up north]

So they won the calendar year league title??

Am I missing something here, aren't we only half way through 2022?

 

[Tb1981]

United are utter shite and will be for a good while yet

The Ratcliffe interest is real, Ratcliffe's spokesman has confirmed it to the Times.

We know he's been after a big name english club for ages, made a bid for Chelsea.

The Glazers seem to have confirmed to several papers they'd be willing to sell to a minority stakeholder.

they have been trying to smoke him out....since Knighton came back on the seen....Knighton mentioned him directly

 

[simon23]

The Ratcliffe interest looks real.

The Glazers announced they'd be willing to sell to a minority stakeholder.

Isnt he also a utd fan?

 

[simon23]

It's going to be a bit chaotic round the swamp on Monday evening, the Dippers finishing work early so they can get there in time to smash up a coach,before forcing their way into the scaffolding yard lookalike ,to find it mt, so no one to assault ,whilst the swampetes are wailing and chanting outside,wishing the Uncle Malc will spend another 1billion.

Dippers?....work?????

 

[domalino]

I think he's a boyhood United fan that effectively became a Chelsea fan when he moved to London and got a season ticket at Stamford Bridge 40 years ago.

Then Id say he is probably interested at least from. fan point of view....no idea from a business point of view of course.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Please don’t sell.

He also owns Nice how will that work when they meet in the European conference league next year? 8-)

 

[domalino]

Please don’t sell.

All good things come to an end.

Who knows if it's ten Hag or his replacement's replacement, under the Glazers or new owners, eventually United will stop sliding and start getting run competently and eventually make a comeback.

We should all savour every moment until that happens and have faith that when the time comes, we'll still be better.

The united way haha, haha it's our own money haha, haha united will never need outside investment hahaha

the boat sailed long ago and the GAP between the top 2 City and Liverpool and Chelsea is more than just money being flashed about. It's bloody hard work over the last ten years that makes Manchester city top dogs, not money

 

[Beswick Prize Band]

Dippers finishing work early ???

That will be a novelty !

Well spotted, just testing ,meant to say getting out of their community service early.

 

[Blue Floyd]

Swamp

Hulme in the 80's looked better than that.

 

[Semper aggressus]

Could do without Ratcliffe buying them, really don’t want anybody that wealthy giving them money for players, or risk the fact he may know what he’s doing regarding appointing people to run the club.

Their incompetence has to continue long enough to really fuck them up for good, or at least very long term. I never, ever want to see that club win a trophy again.
