Default man u , is it just me or what

listening to this shite about m.glazier takin over the club and all the ''fans'' are shouting there tits off about it, boycotting the club blah blah blah, honestly this is the reason i couldnt give a fuck about football, nearly all the supporters in football are cocks imo, they support a team where virtually nobody playing for the team actually comes from the region they represent let alone even the country, they slag all opposition in the league and then when it comes to the world cup etc they kiss the arses of the same players they have been slaggin off when the players for the opposition are the likes of beckham etc , its all beckhms a wanker blah blah, then he puts on an england shirt and he's a fukin hero the hypocrysy in football is unbelievable, and this glazier shite is no different, they are sayin fuk man u etc , lets see when they start winning again , they will be back quicker than you can snap your fingers, when will ''fans'' realise that big corperations couldnt and never will give a fuck about the low life fans , fans are nothing to a club apart from cash and they couldnt give a fuk what you want, they will do what they want and what makes em the most money, rant over

Yep!

Makes me laugh that all the people slagging off this guy buying the place. They say:

He doesnt care about football. His son loves the eam though
Hes only doing it to get out of a debt. Not sure spending Ł780M is the easiest way to do that
That he doesnt care about whether Manchester United do well or not If the team are shite, he wont make much money will he.

Im no football fan. But where is the real problem if someone else holds the keys?

I personally can't see the problem with Glazer.

Man U are a stale club at the moment, and need a slight shift in direction to get them back to the top again.

I realise about the debt issue, but I also can't see Glazer stripping the club of all its assets after a year either!

Default man u

The thing I notice with Man U fans is when they are winning they are in your face when they are loosing they are at home. I think they get it from Fergie I notice he does not do interviews now if they get beat.

Why is it people always slag things off that they have no interest in themselves. Theres plenty of stuff people do that i don't or can't understand why they do but i wouldn't call them cocks just because of it.

I happen to like football and the passion and buzz i get from watching my team is hard to explain to non football fans.

Same as trying to explain why we pour ŁŁŁŁ's into 'old fords' to the "its only a car mate" brigade. Do u not have a passion for your RS? Does that make us RS owners cocks then?

My rant over.

btw i'm the guy who owned your car and took your entrance money at cumbria. Came for a chat but you had gone.

Ok fair point but does that mean that a player earning 50k+ a week dont perform as a 50k player should you should all kiss his arse just because of what he did for the club....

Its the way it is, he has started to slip in performance as he ages which is just part of the shelf life of a footballer, but then when he wants mufc to sign him over the normal one yr rolling contract and still have top pay....Sorry no, you have to earn it...

well mate i am a man u season ticket holder at old traff and have been for 22 years or there about's and you will notice from my previous post's on football related threads on passion ford that i for 1 like a good game off football and when chelsea or liverpool even sunderland fans post a thread on here i say well done not all man u fan's look at the game through red tinted glasses .
and joerst well said mate.
as for mr glazier time will tell? he is not going to riskŁ750mil and rip us apart asset strip us he cant, what's man u worth asset stripped come on
old trafford is worth Ł30 mil as commercial land carrington training ground Ł15 mil player's Ł200 mil if we are lucky what we have to remember is if the team are not doing well let's say for a couple of years all the so called fan's will disapear the far east and worldwide fans will go glory hunting what i mean is support who ever is top at that time so man u as a global brand will not be worth much you see i remember going to old trafford in the 80's and there being 20000 fan watching on a sat afternoon so in my opinion mr glazier need's to make a go off it.
the only thing that does concern me is the Ł250 mil debt that he will bring .
and before you post it's not Ł250 mil it's Ł500 mil read the buying plan's again Ł250 mil his own money Ł250 mil put in by a company he ownes and Ł250 mil borrowed .
sorry to go on but there you have it

Sorry but thats bollox...

Its the same in any proffession/trade. Everyone has their peak period, he had it and did loads...earned enough respect then to last a life time at scum united...needs to earn no more IMO! As for booing him.....as i say, typical scum cocks

It always makes me laugh when people lay into football followers and call them cocks when clearly they have no understanding of the worlds most popular sport, I have bought more shares in man utd taking my stake in the club to almost 5 figures and being a fan and believing in the club i will not be selling them, unless under city trading rules im made to.

I have played football at a high level and have had trials with many clubs as a boy and enjoyed representing my country on a few occasions to. It gives you a great feeling when your out on that pitch and people are cheering you on, it one that most people will never experience, I feel fortunate to have played in front of a few thousand people and I can only imagine what it must be like to hear 67000 people chanting your name.

I have been to old trafford many times this season and I hope to continue this trend whoever the owners are. The club is well run at the moment and glazer will not affect its running. Im a member of shareholders utd and some of the things they are saying is stupid, like form another club er yeah who1s gonna play for ya?

It was a publicly traded company.......anyone could have done what Glazer did. But don't worry, it won't be for long so the possibility of it happening again will go away when Glazer takes it private and de-lists is from the exchange.

Welcome to global economics 101, its all about the CASH and has very little to do with the game.
