I don't see Apple's motivation to buy. Isn't it the lack of potential for increased TV rights that is making all the yanks sell? United live and exclusive on Apple TV would do wonders for their subscription numbers, but right now isn't a remotely realistic option.

And it's not like Apple needs the match day/commercial revenue.

Can't see it.

Exactly. I could see them going for domestic/foreign PL rights and adding another tier to Apple TV Plus. But I think this is just tabloid bullshit.

Very likely whoever comes in.

Should be 20 quid in and then your card gets debited another 10 at full time if the HR of 10 selected garmins goes above 120 more than 5 times in the 90.

Actually, that would include moments of seeth wouldnt it. Need a rethink

Multitasking badly

Basically should pay based on entertainment value, measured by fans heart rate

Yeah, but your seat would be upgraded to very month or so, adding absolutely nothing of note or that you wished it had beforehand.

As long as the buyer has the finances to complete everything that needs doing at the club then I really don't care who they are.

The time for being pious about ownership is long gone.

Ah, I see.

Via an Apple Watch thingy, I assume. If you don't own one, you're shot dead at the turnstile.

Apple should buy united and produce a football that has cameras in it so fans can watch the game from the POV of the footie.

Call it the I-ball

Agreed. Would rather a super rich d***head than a cheap Glazer-type d***head.
