I have decided that I am going to be gracious when the penny finally drops and not say I told you so.

Can’t see any shame in preferring a full cleanse of Glazership and debt
eradication especially given the due diligence available on a football forum

So if he was Sheik Conman, it would suggest Jim had the field to himself and the Glazers were sinking fast right before his eyes.
He might be making all the right noises but when it was there for the taking he’s saved the Glazers and we still have the debt.

He’s fantastic in the chemical world for sure.

Jury’s still out

I don’t think that’s an accurate version of events at all

Not about events it’s more about nouse

Well basically they were £#%&!ed by the interest rates plus the crap spending and idiots appointed had come home to roost too. No investment in facilities and FFP tying their hands.

It’s the only reason they had their ‘review’

Jim comes along after being unsuccessful in the Renters buy out -

Turns out he was up against a fake sheik? Did he not have the means to suss that? Obviously the Glazers became aware, kept a cool head and got what they wanted from him

Not convinced he got the optimum deal knowing what we allegedly know now.

Time will tell. Aka Jury out.

I don’t think the Qatari state bid. If they had it would have been done 12 months ago. Can’t have it both ways.

Highly doubtful there’s any lies in that SEC filing


It’s not like a fake news story. They wouldn’t leave themselves open like that.

If the squinty Sheik had really wanted us he’d have found the necessary billion down the back of his camel saddle.

Agreed I was saying throughout the summer that he was all mouth & no trousers but sadly it now turns out even worse than that as he is clearlk a modern day version of Michael Knighton!

Twerking for reality. If he’s a fake sheik he can’t also be a Nation State.

If he’s a real Sheik and the money is proven to be there and independent of nation state, What’s the difference between him and Jim? Other than the birthplace and Chelsea scarf?

Anyway it is what it is, let’s see what Jim can increment

According to Kevin Solihull on Sky Sports News, Jassim is now "seeking legal advice".

As usual. No names quoted, nobody from Qatar seen in actual person saying anything, just good old Kev parroting crap.

"my understanding is"
"sources close say"
