The good thing about the rag 'model' is, it isn't money they need as they've always had that, it's infrastructure. They literally haven't had a clue for years how to run a football club. GPC's success papered over the cracks for long enough for the rot to set in resulting in it taking a lot of time and expertise to fix.

Slight edits.

Simple maths really. Say you have appx 30 years left to live and you draw £1m a year from a business then your business is worth £30m to you. If you can sell it right now for more than £30m profit after tax then it’s wise to sell it. No more stress of running the business and more money in the bank.

I don't think the glazers are stressed, they've been on a jolly up for the past whatever years

They got no intention of selling shitstain fc.

Laughing all the way to bank them boys.

LGHU.

Did anybody mention arsenal was the better team and should have not lost, because of the officials and a dodgy referee

Perhaps. But the Glazers are essentially get-rich quick merchants who never invest properly in any of their businesses. Some family members might think a share of £4bn is worth taking. They can walk away from all the hassle. It will take them a long time to make that in dividends. They won't fancy sorting out the stadium.
I know that a few years ago they were touting MUFC around to financiers in Geneva and a Saudi deal was a possibility but it never materialised.

Yup, some of the siblings are said to have zero interest in the rags.

In that case why wouldn’t they keep it for, say, 5-10 more years, using dividends to prop up their other businesses, then sell in 5-10 yrs time and cream off all the profit??

Like most fair weather Rag supporters when they stopped being successful?

United mate of mine has been to that shithole once, think it was the England Greece game. Says he can't afford it yet spends 2 grand on his tv to watch that shite. His snide (mothballed) Chinese top has also made a dramatic appearance. Do find it funny though, especially when it goes POP!
