Quite funny the amount of media outlets and fans convinced that the takeover was going to happen. Complete stupidity.

Glazers were never going to sell up.

GLAZERS STAYING 10 MORE YEARS!

It's a Nick Harris story so you may want to take it with a pinch of salt, but if it's true then joy of joys.

Allegedly this Moroccan fella is the answer. From what I hear he's KdB at his club side and Rodri for his country. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Is Attwell in the Rag squad today ?

No but Anthony 'Alti Fan' Taylor is!

 

[the-ecstacy-of-eight]

I actually quite fancy them for a win tomorrow.

You are Anthony Taylor and I claim my five pounds ;)

You lot leave Eric alone. It's difficult shopping in bargain basement for loan signings and world class players like Shaw, Varane and the new scoring sensation being injured. He's working on a shoestring and doing a fantastic job.

Doesn’t sound like he’s planning on winning much by 2025

The rags have been working on it for the last 10 years.

Exactly. Making the reasonable assumption that it isn't true, it's only purpose can be to add fuel to the fire that the Glazers are just greedy and stirs up the anti-Glazer mob, possibly giving it renewed vigour. I'm deeply suspicious of the motives of anything Harris has to say and doubt this story has any substance. That said, I hope to God it's true.

Nice to see the Mary D’s seven figure refurb over the summer was money well spent.

There’s no way you’ve ever been in such a squalid place G ;)

More than anyone else on here I’ll hazard! :-)

It’s my preferred pre match mate I’m in there most weeks. Can honestly never say I’ve never spotted anyone in a smoking jacket and monacle so I think you’re pulling my leg.

Embarrassing quote from a manager eho has spent a fortune.
Not exactly a “winners” mentality but thats no surprise from him

When's the last time anyone actually saw a half penny piece?

This morning, jim! I've got one in the kitchen drawer. I'm waiting for both Sergio and halfpennies to make a comeback.

You said places like that!

They're a fucking laughing stock. And we're Europe's best team. Happy days...

Not many of them would dare to admit it, but deep down they all know… this is all Ferguson’s fault.

As much as he built them from being a decent club to the world’s best and biggest, he’s also the reason they’ve gone from the world’s best and biggest club to just a run-of-the-mill English club who sometimes pop up in the CL places but often don’t and aren’t even ran as well as Brentford and Brighton…

All because of a horse and one man’s ego.

This and as important him sticking around stinking the place out. No wonder they cannot have a reset when he is still haunting the corridors behind the scenes etc

No, Alty, he will be confused who to give the decisions to today

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

After they get beat today Neville will have yet another hour long whinge on Sly.
So very boring Gary, nobody is interested Zzzzz

Now, now. The news followed by a thumping for the world's biggest club and I'll really look forward to listening to Gary. I might not be interested in what he says but the way he stammers it out will be really enjoyable. Perhaps a chorus of Glory, glory man united as the players slump off?

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

I'm sure we all believe $10 billion will be a reasonable price in a couple of years time.

 

[lonestay]

Think pigmol will take ref and var standards to a whole new level today ,.

Ah, but you're old. That would be a given.
