We don't need these @#%&!s to compete though. We just need to stop throwing away the money we do make on the debts of the £#%&!wits who currently own us.

There has to be another way out.

By whom?

Murder of journos, bribery, corruption etc.

Actually.. I'm re-thinking my position on murder of Journo's...

Damned if you do..

Yep. It's all £#%&!ed anyway, and if they don't buy us it will probably be those scouse @#%&!s down the road. Just £#%&!ing imagine

Can't see it happening anyway tbh, always these rumours about but £#%&! all comes of it.

Not arsed.

Game went down the shitter long ago.

£3.8bn is a lot of bunce for something that isn't ever likely to make you any monies and exists in an industry in which the bubble could burst at any time...

You'd have to be £#%&!ing mad to chuck money at it, and then you'd have to pay off the debt at another £400m and then the fans would expect £500m + chucked at players with some urgency, plus stadium upgrade, training facilities etc. to bring it all up to the level expected of the most expensive sports team in the World.

Be lucky to get any change out of £6bn as an initial investment to get it to the level to compete with their enemies. Sounds like chump change to them, but I doubt even they would chuck that about lightly.

City were the perfect choice to purchase having recently been gifted a brand new stadium, Shiniwata or whatever he was called having sorted them out for a year and the scope for investment in the area surrounding the stadium. United are a money pit in comparison..

Be lucky to get any change out of £7bn as an initial investment to get it to the level to compete with their enemies. Sounds like chump change to them, but I doubt even they would chuck that about lightly.

Opportunity to money launder through sponsorship, use it as part of their "modernisation" policy.
Same as city and PSG really but going big balls and buying a club with actual history

Not for them it isn't really. World status/dick-swinging is a big thing to those £#%&!ers. They'd be dropping about 0.5% tops of their total worth

If they were that arsed and it was that simple, they'd have done it by now surely? If not us, Madrid or someone else..

New lad in charge now though innit, and can't be having their noisy neighbours taking all the Arab limelight...

MBS is the reason why this is still being discussed.

Very reckless young guy, loves attention. I bet if any fredster got 5 mins alone with him and told him about United he would launch a 5bn bid immediately.
