It is sad that a great club like Manchester United (though I am a fan of Ajax Amsterdam) is in hands of a rich old bastard. Soccerclubs should'nt be in hands of 1 or 2 people, but also in hands of the fans, the ones that are the heart of the club. I'll hope that the fans win this battle; keeping Manchester United as Manchester United.

Man Utd fans have to collectively be the most stupid/ignorant group of people i've ever encountered
First they tell us Man United isn't for sale, when in fact, as a plc, thats exactly what it means - for sale to anybody in the public domain (you got benefits of the plc by means of extra equity financing the club with no repayments on debt, don't be pissed cos you can't have your cake and eat it)
Now Glazer comes in, he's a very astute businessman, doesn't like losing money. & MAN UTD FANS THINK THAT HES GOING TO DESTROY HIS INVESTED CAPITAL? Please
United fans go on about him knowing nothing about football (fair enough, he doesn't) - but the end of the business he's in is the corporate end - he's not gonna be picking the first team.
Funnily enough it works the other way too - MOST United fans know very little about the business world, and hear the word debt & assume its automatically a bad thing. Not true, anyone anyway educated in the business domain knows this.
Leveraging a company (ie employing debt) has benefits - it keeps the company under tighter control, while raising capital (money, if you will), and while yes you have to repay against it, any financial expert looking at Man United can see that these repayments can easily be covered by the extra growth that the club will benefit from.
The only thing that will destroy Man Utd financially is if all the fans stop investing in the club (eg going to matches, buying products...etc.)
Which i find tremendously funny as a Gunner
(edit: Note to Moderators, this thread really should be in the Lounge or Sports Corner, any chance of getting it moved?)

if this man can get the buccaneers a title in the nfl and turn that franchise around, christ.. man u shouldn't be in any trouble. But this move has nothing to do with football really, just a business move. I doubt anything happens bad happens to the club in the form of competetion. This man is ridiculously ruch, hes gonna wonna have the team succeed so they get more sponsor money, more bandwagon fans, more top players...bah, nothing bad could happen to man u, if i hated them with a passion before i should think i would be more pissed now

If we don't buy the merchandise/products from those companies that'll equal no profit right? Which means the club will still be in debt, which means we'll have to sell our star players and we'll do a leeds

(And yeah, I dunno why this thread is here, either)

Thanks for all your thoughts. Just a few points in answer to your comments
* Managable debt is not a problem, but Glazer will have to doubke Uniteds profits to just pay off the interest - Now You lot already know how much over the top marketing and merchandising the clubs does, so the next thing is increasing ticket prices (Like he did at Tampa) or renaming the stadium (Budwiser Bowl). * Yes he won the super Bowl with Tampa, but was that all him or did the draft system aid his cause (Pure conjecture, as I know fuck all about the NFL) * IMUSA and most die hards were against the flotation in the first place, along with the tosser Edwards envolvment with the club * Yes we have won titles with the large amounts of cash, but we have abandoned a youth policy that lead to the treble and were the 19th highest spending club in the UK between 1991 and 1994 (How much was Cantona, Peter Schmeichel, Giggs Beckham, Scholes, Butt, Nevilles - Even Keano was on 3.75 million) * I am friends with a number of Arsenal Season Ticket Holders (Not the bitter ones on this forum) And they are totally dismayed by their lack of atmosphere, the fact they will be visting the Emirates Stadium and also the fact they are now producing nearly the 25,000 different kit designs a season United produce)
To Sum up
I am a passionate supporter that does'nt want the death of football. I am an Oasis fanatic and assumed fellow fans would show sympathy for my cause (And cheers to those of you who have - Nice comments Kalas)
Who ever or what ever club or sport you follow, do you want to priced out?, Do you want people with no passion for your sport to enter it for only financial gans?, Do you want the heart ripped out of it, in which everyone will lose (Including the opposing fans, who love to beat us?.
Finally, this mirrors the way music s going - The record company telling Noel what records he needs to release, talking away his artistic free licence
Glazer will die, Glazer will die, Keep the red flag flying high
No Customers, No Profit, No Glazer

127 years of history so far. we'll never die...
even though the club is/was rich the real passion is with the fans/players. money is nothing compared with '68 or '99 memories, players like best, charlton, cantona, keane, all who made United the team they are and future players will join because of history and not money (well the modern age has made players greedy, so fuck them)
As long as its 11 players on the pitch who are proud to waer the crest on the red shirt, fuck the rest of the jersey, the're will always be a Manchester United.
So Fuck Off Glazer, we want a team

I'm not Rio's biggest fan but he still is improving. I say he is more likely to go to city than Chelsea if he does go coz United won't sell to rivals,

It's funny how I have a pair of Nike trainers, am after a Vodafone phone, my dad is probs buying an Audi, I love a quarter pounder with no cheese and milkshake, budweiser rules and I'll need to start using a proper razor soon and Wilkinson Sword seems a fairly good brand.
So erm, lets keep Malcom Glazed Donut going!

'Oh - Malcom Glazer's magic, he wears a baseball hat, and when he saw united - he said i'm buying that.. He went to buy the arsenal, he even tried the scum But we said fuck off Glazer, you stupid leprachaun ----------------- You sold Your side You’ve got no fucking pride Man-chester ----------------- You’re just a small club from Tampa, small club from Taaaaampa.. ----------------- He's fat... He's round.... He paid 790 million pound.... Malcolm Glazer... Malcolm Glazer....

Looking forward to hearing those humourous songs at Cardiff.
Prediction:
United beat Arsenal again to win the cup
Rooney shags a granny scouser on the pitch during celebrations
Rio (again forgets his drug test after a couple of spliffs at Half time)
Keano hits Glazer over the head with the FA Cup knocking him out
Prompting UEFA to ban United from the Champions league and the FA relegating us to the Championship
Leading to immediate bankrupcy (Fuck Off Glazer)
Followed by the withdrawal of support by prawn sandwich munching glory hunters (Who start following Chelsea)
Which leads to 74/75 atmosphere at the Theatre Of Dreams
Leading to the Phoenix rising from the Championship to relegate Stutwat Pennis' bitter Blues and El granno stabo Mickey Mouses
Which finishes off with Viera passing the ball to 38 year old Ryan Giggs, who skips past the ageing Arsehole back four to score in injury time, leading to an unlikely Premiership crown, due to Chelsea's deduction of 10 points due to Russian Mafia's involvement in the funding of the newley named St Petersburg Stadium on the renamed Tsar Rd London SW6
