From the Bunker

The Glazers are the ultimate parasite owners. They'll never sell unless they are offered a crazy lump of money.
The genius of Ferguson papered over the cracks up to 2013. Since then Moynes, Van Gaal and Mourinho have been fall guys.

ONeill

I don't understand what that means.

Are the Glazers picking the players?

But I think they've more net spending than any other side bar City in the last 5 years?

Do Utd want a different billionaire owner just?

The majority of Uniteds revenue money towards transfers has been wasted on misfits especially during Van Gaal, Mourinhos time at the club.

What United need is Owners with a clear ambition to win major honours and people clued in over transfers. Liverpool, City and Chelsea all have that.

Aye that's the thing. It's fairly warped. You've these supporters getting at wealthy owners yet applauding players earning a million a month and totally detached from their fan base, funded by these owners.

Not really sure what these fans want.
They are peddling a misty-eyed Newton Heath narrative when in fact they've just got the wrong sort of billionaire. They are living in the shadow of City and would give anything to have the bottomless pit of cash City have.

ONeill

But who asked for the players? I read that Moyes and Van Gaal were given serious war chests that they wasted on crap players.

City and Chelsea are funded by billionaires, Chelsea being in astonomical debt but so what.

So, Utd want a different billionaire?

City's owners might have a bottomless pit but it's not City's to spend. They can only spend what they generate which is sort of the point. Utd's revenue stream is one of the biggest in the world and the owners are siphoning it into their own pockets.

These billionaires club owners are billionaires because they are a bunch of ruthless, greedy, corrupt nuts. They wouldn't be much of a businessman if they owned a club and it losing money. It's a business venture. Of course they will pretend that they care about the fans and city, but really they don't give a shit, as long as they're making money.

Arsenal want their dodgy American owner out, and apparently the owner of Spotify is linked to buying it. I don't know the current owner, but you can guarantee this Spotify dude is a dodgy hoor too, a la Bill Gates, Zuckerberg or some other psycho.

Fans need to get real. All of these owners of their clubs are nutbars.

Is that because of the plandemic?

Why would how a club in Manchester, in England, do their business be of interest to a supporter, especially when they've a bottomless pit to spend going by recent buys? City's owners are making a lot of money from the City brand too.

City exposed the FFP legal rules to be a house of cards. They can now spend what they want with impunity

United had already had their Carrington training ground stormed after the collapse of ESL, with fans speaking to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and holding a banner reading: "We decide when you play".

They're really not! This nonsense is because they haven't won the league in 10 years.

Good finish but poor defending by Liverpool.

Now there's a guy who understands what the protests were supposed to be about, he's the kind of guy who understands  the club and their current plight. He needs to be applauded for standing up to the billionaire owners of his club.
Though to be fair it is possible that some might be sceptical and see a guy who chanced his arm and followed the mob as they broke into the stadium, armed with a football so he could boast to his mates that he played at and scored a goal at Old Trafford.

They really are! The protests has been happening since these owners arrived and was on going when they were winning Premier league titles and reaching Champions League finals. The European Super League plans has brought things to the boil.
