PL charge City for alleged breaches of financial rules

Utd: Apart from the co- chairmen, the Glazer family want out, for preference.
Ineos are reported to have made an indicative bid of £4.5bn. Once they have seen the data, they won’t increase that, so Middle East is likely.

Surely any buyer would also want to see the debts hidden in the cayman island accounts?

Irrelevant. 1. They have no idea what the Commission will come up with it. 2. Liverpool is being sold simply because nobody wants to pay their asking price 3. United will get sold in all likelihood.

Anyway, it is almost definitely unconnected and wouldn't form the basis of that go/no go decision.

Cheers for the response - appreciated. Seems to be myself over thinking. Then again - just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get us !! Thanks
 
I always thought both sets of red shite being put up for sale by their US owners was just a massive flounce because the ESL got shot down. Maybe with either the punishment of city or implosion of the PL to look forward to they once again see this as a good place to do business?
 
Could we have a whip-round to buy Utd? Give the Glazers £10bn in recognition of their services to football. Then run the club into the ground but slowly, a slow lingering demise over the next 15 years would be nice.

Unravelling United’s accounts - not just the Cayman Islands, but the PIK notes that disappeared and whatever borrowings the wider Glazier empire has secured against United could take months to unravel and understand during the due diligence process and will hugely reduce the price.

Agreed mate, their whole empire (lol) is leveraged against the rags?

i feel the chelsea sale flushed a few buyers out or atleast people groups intrested in buying a football club how serious some are is another thing but both tested water

John Henry as already said, he prefers investors, so it's unlikely an offer big enough was on the table. As for the Glazers. Maybe Joel and Avram were out voted by their siblings, and are looking at ways of keeping their interest in the club.

This extended World Club cup, and the re-emergence of the ESL might have a bearing on things as well

Possibly, but it would be ball-bouncingly funny if Liverpool still ended up with FSG and United with (some of) the Glazers.

Why waste £10bn when the Glazers are already doing a better job of that than we could ever manage?

Fan-led Review and Football White Paper

– in the House of Commons at 4:32 pm 20 February 2023
www.theyworkforyou.com www.theyworkforyou.com

Luke Evans, Conservative MP for Bosworth can get to fuck, the smarmy prick.

"

Luke Evans Conservative, Bosworth​

The Minister is a diligent man, and I am pleased that he has taken the time to look into the system and is coming forward with a White Paper next week. He cannot comment specifically on the Manchester City issue, but the fact that there are more than 100 charges—particularly about not co-operating —does raise questions. Will he confirm that the independent regulator will have the power to compel clubs to co-operate with the Premier League and the authorities when they are dealing with such important issues?"
