I don't think the Glazers will ever enjoy widespread respect, I think thats pretty obvious don't you?

Says who? I believe it was more like about £30m the pair so far.
Hargreaves' fee remains undisclosed, though I'd be surprised if it doesn't match the Carrick fee, ie. £14m up front.
As for the other post (Jablonsky was it?) about net spend ffs this is not Football Manager!
I wouldn't think the Glazers are actually that disrespected as far as the football side of things goes. More importantly, if all this comes together over the next couple of seasons and the transition to a new manager is as smooth as it now looks likely to be, the boycotters* may already have kissed goodbye to United forever.
*those previously only ocassional part-timers, and those living abroad, don't count.
