hdcantona 8,731 Posted March 21 Report Share Posted March 21 Second qatari bid reportedly worth 5.5 billion euros (I think for the whole club though not just the glazer share) - will be submitted tonight apparently, unsure yet on what Ratcliffe is doing and whether or not there are other bidders (some papers reported more private parties) -e- Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Albert Quixall 3,807 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 According to the Guardian, the bids are still below the Glazers' valuation of £5bn to £6bn. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1Day 115 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 Glazers will drag this saga on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Quixall 3,807 Posted March 22 Report Share Posted March 22 6 minutes ago, 1Day said: Glazers will drag this saga on. The Glazers might just take money from a hedge fund and retain control. The only bid for the club, lock, stock, and barrel, is the one from Qatar. 1Day 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everything from transfers to club sale is painstaking, long drawn out and rarely positive for the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gary 168 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 Just read briefly about this Finnish dude considering throwing his hat in the ring with a refreshing bid that involves Utd fans globally having an input. Nearly chocked on my cornflakes ( well it is 5am down under) Any truth to this wildcard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Locke 1,162 Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 I would probably buy a healthy stake for an average fan just to have that fan power but most fans won't chuck in a dime. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He's looking at over 1 billion Utd supporters globally therefore a stake of only 3 quid each matches his 50%? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That, and the fact it's an easy way to milk another few billion quid out of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nirav 1,143 Posted Sunday at 04:36 Author Report Share Posted Sunday at 04:36 All the major bids are in. Up to the glazers now. Sell and go away rats!! You got your money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hdcantona 8,731 Posted Sunday at 11:45 Report Share Posted Sunday at 11:45 goes on to say that Joel would only sell for a big premium and could be persuadable, especially near the 6bn mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
