people only had their own knowledge limitations to forecast imminent doom. in fact as horrible as it was and still is to see united become the finance industry's bitch the team went on to an incredible period of success which only ended when the manager retired. in fairness it had become threatened by the oil money before then obviously, and now we see united becoming exactly the kind of club many hoped we'd never see, throwing hundreds of millions of quid like confetti on the transfer market. what we are now is almost the exact opposite of what the experts thought the glazer ownership would see united become. most of that was due to the incredible short-sightedness and naivety in failing to factor in what the club could do in marketing itself and what the game in england (and the CL) would pull in through media - both areas in which the glazers proved to be light years ahead of their critics on. |

Could also have gone terribly wrong and they would have just walked away, leaving us £#%&!ed. Hard to see how we could avoid the huge sponsorship deals and TV money given the status of the club and how things have gone. It was a risk free (for them) investment (or lack of) that has paid off and to paint them as oracles of the market (there is no such thing) seems a bit silly. But do go ahead. |
