Rumours on twitter that United have been purchased by the Saudis finally.
I really hope this isn’t true

It would have to be reported to the stock exchange first off, New York I think for them. If it has happened then it would be Monday before you would hear for sure.

Great bit of business for the Glazers if it goes ahead.
Buy a club with about £70m of your own money, borrow the rest, use the clubs profits to service the debt and watch the value treble in 15 years, then sell for a profit of about £2.5 billion with the club in a total mess on the pitch
I think the takeover would be bad news for City and Liverpool as the Saudi's aren't fuelled by profits, they want publicity and success at any cost. A Man Utd with no debt is a club with another £80-100m a season to spend on top of their usual £100m. And more crucially it'll all be within financial fairplay. Throw in some dubious City like sponsorship and they'll be free to spend £250m a year without even batting an eyelid.

Man Utd already spend fortunes as it - must be close to the biggest spenders over the last 5 years
Also - within FFP ? Not so sure about that but then City show that FFP is a white elephant
But this is all based at the moment on a random tweet - reckon they have been rumoured to have bought many a club over the years
But if it does happen I don’t see a huge difference for a while

apparently this is offside according to VAR 🤦â€â™‚ï¸
Just what is the point of it when it’s making things worse

If this does happen and city stays the same it won't be as a big deal surely ? It's if they win your screwed
Plus it wasn’t var that called it. it was flagged offside by the Lino. var checked it and agreed with the Lino..
That depends on Leicester and our results, if we both win, city drop to 4th in a so-called 2 horse race 🤔
The pack behind simply catches up with 2 ......hang on....
City equalise, now it gets more interesting.
