Seems like the Glazers pushing the panic button in order to do some shady deal that benefits them and not the club.

Originally posted by Palynkathere's a reason why a breakaway club was created when the glazers took over, they are not football people and are here only to make money in an industry (club owners) that if we're honest tends not to make anything unless they sell players. they borrowed heavily to buy utd which they should never have been allowed to. if you didn't already know what was happening at utd before last season you did with the sell of ronaldo and not buying a 'too expensive' argentine. that and bringing in owen on a free and not spending that much in comparison to buy valencia.. the glazers don't care about what utd do on the pitch, not really the bastards are and always were here to make a profit.

They've already managed to leech at least £10m from the club in "management fees". So they bought the club taking no risk of their own, saddled it with debt and paid themselves for the "service"?
Why they were welcomed by any United fan is beyond me. Business men coming and buying the Club by placing the Club in huge debt can only be bad news. The sale of OT was and is inevitable while the Glazier's own it.
Seeing as society is so apathetic and lazy, I don't see a strong enough movement coming about to oppose the Glaziers and force them to sell.
Soccer is becoming farcicle in my eyes, given the gigantic wages paid to players out of the pockets of the ordinary man. The players may be good, but they're not that good.

What the hell is going on there?

Even if the Glazier's sold all off Man Yoooo's assets down the swanny, then they would only have one thing left to sell. The club itself. No doubt, the brand being as big as it is, idiot billionaires would be lining up to snap it up as their new shiny toy.
A period of transition perhaps, but certainly not the end.
