I think stadium redevelopment is the key in this. Do the Glaziers want to do it? Would someone spend $6bn on them then have to spend over a billion quid on a new stadium. I think they might just because of the vast revenues the club pulls in, but any new owner would be buying them with debt and then also raising more debt to build the stadium.

They are in quite a hilarious pickle.

Again, not knowing anything about them and their other interests apart from Man U, so based solely within the context of them owning Man U, then I would say it's a no-brainer to sell.

1. They borrowed every penny to buy the Club
2. Loaded that debt onto the Club
3. Have taken out dividends, salaries and bonuses ever since to the tune of £1.1b!!!!
4. They have never invested a single penny of their own money. Not to buy or since owning.
5. They have barely spent anything on the stadium (just some corp facilities and maintenance). The training ground has recently had some refurbishment (but club money).
5. If they can get £6b + £1.1b they've already taken out that's fucking daylight robbery.
6. Let someone else spend the money on a new stadium etc....Take the money and run. What a fucking deal = £400m earned per year for 17yrs without parting with a single penny of their own!!!

Why would any of the dodgy consortiums that buy top level football clubs purchase a "minority stake" from the Glazers?

They'd just be facilitating the ongoing looting of the club and its inevitable sporting failure.

Tbf it’s not really enough to show someone in a photo with Epstein to damn them for life. There are all sorts of reasons you could be photographed with someone who made their fortune in finance and it doesn’t mean they knew about or were complicit in child sexual trafficking and abuse.
