Premier league fixtures being played in America

All seater stadiums
Corrupt administration @ fifa, uefa and probably fa and pl
Cheating, not-arsed, diving players
Agents
Corrupt refs

But oh noes, a man in a tea towel wrong thread

is there a connection I’m missing here btw? America wants PL football so blame it on Qatar, who don’t have zip influence in PL. Try looking at United, Liverpool and Chelsea American owners who were at the forefront of this, last time around

They haven’t taken over yet and if they do, they’ll be an improvement on the existing foreign ownership

I assumed the Qatar mentions on this thread were baiting….

Tbf they’re probably stupid enough to think Qatar would want game s played in the states as opposed to the country they’re from and they’ve just spend “290 billion” on to host football games

It probably is unfair to suggest it’s their fault, but I guess it’s slightly understandable to hear about a sporting event taking place in a wholly inappropriate location on the other side of the globe and assume the Qatari’s are at it again.

Guessing this is what the glazers are holding out for?

Would probably mean more broadcasting money etc?

No, they're holding out for more money - its that simple.

"we want glazers out!" coming to your doorstep.

Silly, irrelevant Qatar references aside, obviously yank owners having another go at getting their grubby mitts on the action. How many US owners in the PL? Damage they’ve done since their arrival yet usual suspects pissing their knickers about Qatar again.

But the Glazers are better than middle east owners. Yep, that's right, a family bleeding the club dry is better.

Tbh, when you look back at it now, I do feel we’ve all been too hard on the glazers. Woodward was our biggest problem. There’s nothing wrong with being investors and expecting a return. This is 2023.

And you’d be a liar if you just ignored what the Carabou victory meant to Joel. Staying behind to shake all our players hands in person. Not many owners would do that and I very much doubt the Qataris would.

The glazers now come across as genuine fans - clearly that wasn’t always the case but perhaps the united bug has grown on them.

Wouldn’t be unhappy at all if they didn’t sell.

Correct. They have wonderful values we can get behind.

Top reds realised we’d got through to Joel when he wrote that open letter. He seems like a really nice guy and wants us to succeed. Even something like backing Ole - you look back and you realise no other top club would show faith in a club legend like that. It was a mistake, but one I’m glad we made.

You’re right about Ole. It was a very brave move but thank God they went with it. And I think it was the open letter when the penny dropped with me. It was very revealing about the glazers true motivation. And that’s when I and I suspect many fans admitted that perhaps we’d got it wrong. I made a point of not singing any of the ‘glazers going to die’ chants after that. And not wearing a green and gold scarf.

Think people are now too eager to move on from the glazers - just when they’re getting it right.

That was Avi that was at the final. He's the real red in the family. Joel is just a Martial fanboy.

I don’t sit near the players tunnel keith, but if you do can you pull down that glazers out banner next hom3 game?

Hard to believe but people really do underestimate the damage Woodward inflicted on the club. He actually believed he could run the rule over everything in order to curry favour with the owners but .… the Glazers sat around watching him do it. Slowly. Right before their £#%&!ing eyes. For 15 years. In fact, they instructed him to make as much money for them as he possibly could. He responded to the brief and here we are. The club hasn’t got a pot to piss in and the Glazers stand to take 7 or 8 billion out of the club, along with their dividends and the debt they’ve left. It isn’t Woodward dragging his feet over the “sale” to leech even more out of the club.

Im not too keen on turbans but I think you need to have a bit of a think about that last line.

It's a pre-season tournament, everyone can stand down for another few years
