[Football] Sir Jim Ratcliffe at Man United

[Zeberdi]

He and Brailsford are a pair of cockjugglingthundercunts. Hope their ‘project’ crashes and burns spectacularly.

Irony is, I was all for the Glazers selling Ratcliffe 25% of an EPL club rather than selling it to the Saudis - many of whom were sniffing around - I don’t care about Manure but less sportwashing money in English football the better imo.

Sources: Mid East groups to confirm Utd interest

Multiple Middle East consortiums are expected to confirm their interest in Manchester United ahead of a potential takeover, sources told ESPN.

But like you say …%#£&@!”£&!#

( although at least Ratcliffe doesn’t have thousands of dead migrant workers to explain I suppose )

It was always going to happen unfortunately, TBH the worst thing in that article is that Elon Musk isn’t bidding, given his success with businesses that could have been amazing

Ratcliffe has reportedly put Nice up for sale (this will resolve Ratcliffe’s dual ownership UEFA competition issues) but more importantly for us, maybe indicate he will buy out Glazers controlling share at some point (the Glazers who’ve never spent any money of the Club) which will be a lot more capital investment and operating finances for Man U. Can see them being very tough for us to beat in a season or two’s time and yep, likely more UAE/Saudi money coming into top flight football (Ligue 1).

Ratcliffe will get a transition time to allow both Nice and Man U to compete in next season’s Europa so he’s not under pressure to sell too quickly

This was always going to happen at some stage, just like with Chelsea, they were never going to stay a basketcase club for long once someone semi-competent came in. It's been fun the last few years beating them convincingly, but their resources vastly outweigh ours, so I expect them to be back up there. Thing is there's only three domestic and one European trophy for them to go for every year. The way Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and new money Newcastle are coming into it, plenty of those clubs are going to be disappointed each season.

The only real winners out of this will be the Glazers, their personal big cash cow will go from strength to strength.
