Can't think of another time where I've wanted these cunts gone this badly.

Listen, if Levy died in a car crash overnight I would be smashing the champagne and cocaine tomorrow AM, I hate him.
I actually think we are in agreement - I prefer the Glazer approach to Levy’s but you have to recognise that if they had funded the purchase of the club themselves (rather than borrow), they would have had an extra billion for players
Agreed. Yes the Glazers have taken a lot of money out of the club, but they've also backed their managers with huge transfers.
It's a very unfortunate fact for many people that the Glazer's leveraged buy-out just flat out worked. They haven't been impoverished despite what Man U fans pretend, the club generates enough money that it really hasn't been a problem or imposed any tough decisions on them money wise. The problem is that they just had a string of bad managers who made bad and expensive decisions on player transfers.
Well, United fans only show up at halftime. So they don't really get their money's worth out of seeing players on the pitch, do they?
That philosophical outlook on money is precisely why the Glazers have billions to begin with whilst you're shirking work sat on a mental footy forum bashing a keyboard.
As long as that's all he's bashing.That philosophical outlook on money is precisely why the Glazers have billions to begin with whilst you're shirking work sat on a mental footy forum bashing a keyboard.
HAhahaThat philosophical outlook on money is precisely why the Glazers have billions to begin with whilst you're shirking work sat on a mental footy forum bashing a keyboard.
And u can see why Utd fans want them out. Is it a good biz move by them personally? Does it handicap the football club? Yes
Glazers will argue the 40m interest is offset by the extra revenue they take as top line due to their commercial improvements and changes
Does being owned by a bloke that bakrupts himself buying perishable assets with an extremely short shelf life and a huge margin for failure, like footballers, benefit the club?
There's a mental disconnect between supporters, who are obsessed with football, and the people whose lives and careers are tied up in the sport. Its insane to throw stupid amounts of money that cannot be recovered at transfer fees, and the only people who do it, Mansour, Abramovich, the Qataris, are people who've never had to earn their money in the first place.
The problem with football isn't the Glazers, ENIC, and FSG. Its that less than half a dozen clubs have been bought by outside interests operating in a world devoid of financial constraints that have cause inflation at the top of the game to run out of control.
There's nothing wrong with the way the Glazers run United - nothing. They spend more money than anyone outside City, which operate on a fake budget. The Glazers appointed the wrong guy at the top and hired some shit managers who blew a load of cash on absolute shit. But they've managed the club the right way, and the only real beef any United fans have with them is they're American. All the doom and gloom shit they conjured up at the takeover has been proven 16 years later to have been demonstrably false.
In the 16 years the Glazers have owned United they've won 12 major trophies and signed the 3 most expensive footballers in English history (and 4 of the top 10, 4 of the top 25 in the world), and undertaken significant investment in training facilities. United fans are really just moaning over the fact that financial doping has broken the monopoly on English football that the PL created for them.
Enic are wonderful arnt they l...ffs
1 trophy in 20 years.. fucking 1 trophy
The Same fucking excuses year in year out. And charging the highest ticket prices in the country.
Yeah there fucking wonderful
They've got finance in our name to build a stadium to make money for them that's not going to do us any favours. All the care about is people being in it and buying shit while they're there.
As I've said before, once you let Americans get a foot in the door, it's all over. With his NFL franchise, can't anyone see where this is heading ? We will have American owners in 5 years. At which point I will stop supporting the club for the 1st time in 60 years.

Good post.
All I would say is if Levy was borrowing a billion, he would be paying a lot less interest ;-)
are you ok with the dividends?
That’s not true - the stadium does do us favours *
I despise him and his business model but even I can see that

Only so it could be pulled down and thrown in the Thames.!!It was only a couple of years ago there was people on here claiming there should be a statue of Levy erected outside the stadium.
