How are we all feeling about our club today?

Citizen of Legoland said:
United fans (some) hate their owners because they went from a fairly well run club to one with a dangerous model. As it happens they can survive because they live in the PL whereas Real Madrid are finding out why constant borrowing isn't eternal. Our owners have stabilised us, got us to almost parity with the biggest sporting names and we can withstand unforeseen circumstances like what we're going through. I just don't get why people should be ashamed of our ownership other than maybe human rights in the country they are from, but in terms of how they run their operations in the UK there's no problem there as far as I know.

This SL project is still a mystery on our part and will probably stay that way. Yes, we have been "involved" in talks for some time, but there's "involved" (as in what's your view) and "involved" (as in this time next year we'll be trillionaires). We may have been saying all along that we're in no rush and the scheme should be fair. After all, we've no need to really change things do we. Then when approached we ask to see the details and are told "You have to join to see the details", which is probably normal for a secretive plan. We say "Okay", join (or sign a letter of intent) in order to assess it, find we don't like it and withdraw. What exactly have the owners done wrong there? If the plan had included normal qualification rules it would possibly still be alive. I also reckon if PSG and BM had joined and we hadn't, the media would be all over this explaining why it is needed.

To many ifs and unknowns in that rationale. We tried to join the cartel. End of story.
 
I am out with some mates later. One of whom is a mad as a box of frogs yonner.
He will no doubt have plenty to spout about this weeks shenanigans he hates City and the rags in equal measure.
I am just going to laugh at him and say how disgusting it is that shitty little clubs like his are parasites on the game by constantly whinging about having no money and because of the likes of him we’re missing out on billions.
Expect a large explosion from the Rochdale area around 2 o’clock this afternoon.
Such larks.
Happy St George’s Day everyone.

(ESL was a fucking stupid ideas btw)
 
They made a huge error of judgement, apologised and the worlds still turning, I won’t be losing any sleep over it , in the grand scheme of things it’s hardly the end of the world. A league and two cups still to be won , onwards and upwards.
 
Life's too short to hold a grudge, it's over, the sun's out and we have a cup final and a semi final to look forward to.

United fans have lived with supporting their club but hating their owners for years. We, as a whole, have been supportive of ours (despite some potential reservations). I have been happy to be weaponised to call out and challenge the cartel and the hypocritical fan base of the entitled clubs. I know more about club finances, amortisation, football politics and FFP than any fan should have to. I have invested heart and soul into the club and the 'project'.
I was going to walk away from football over this. Walk away from the club. Now I want to support our team, our manager and our on field actions. When challenged about our ownership I may well now do the United approach. Shrug my shoulders and simply say 'yeah. Shit isn't it'.

Were you calling our owners "shit" when they spent over a billion quid into your team, enabling it to win everything for a decade?

No you fucking weren't. You were quite happy like the rest of us to suckle on Sheikh Mansour's teat in return for glory. He might just argue that turning on him for having the temerity to perhaps want a bit of that money back makes you the greedy one, not him. It was always an investment and he never claimed it was a gift.
