Correct me if im wrong but the glazers have a mortgage on the club(debt). This gets paid off over a collection of years..debt timeline lenghtens due to interest...in the longrun if the debt is managed correctly this must run hand in Hand with success/money over the said period. Makes sense to invest into the club. Given that this floatation is valued at 220 mil for 10%..does this represent a massive increase in the overall value of the club? It does to me. It seems crazy not to pump the money raised, into servicing the debt..unless of course they have a long term plan.

We need these businessmen out of the club..weather it is now or down the line. Ultimately these parasites will sell utd at a massive profit..

Glazers out!!

He could come out and criticize the debt and threaten to walk and then they'd have to sit up and take note but he doesn't do it and it doesn't look like he ever will.

................

Why would he do this? He has said he is very happy working with them.

My guess is, you want him to do this to prove your theory right, that he has been a yes man.

Glazers out!!

While this is a grat sentiment, and will please a lot of people, what would be your stance if we then get owners who are worse, and who interfere in team matters.

Alot of very well put and well thought out points in that letter, but why it`s addressed to Sir Alex i do not know! He`s an employee, albeit a long standing and extremely influential one, the same as everyone else apart from the glazer family!

What can he do? Threaten to quit? He`s off in the next five years maximum anyway.

just trying to explain that the glazers have a plan. Im not anti Glazer at all the pardon my sarcasm. Once the model is set up the debt could be managed quite attainably . I would much rather a Glazer than a dictator.

Realistically the Americans are clever but they are harming the natural fibre of the club...who will own what part or percent of the club come the inevitable re selling again to maximize profit on their investment. This is business sure..but the more Manchester united /glazers delve into this way of servicing debt ..the more the fans will feel alienated.

Oh and lets hope that letter swishes on the way into fergies bin.

This should have happened a long time ago. The true test of those blinkered fans is this really, how can you support fergie and then hate the glazers? If they are so sure they know whats right, then they should have an opinion in line with fergie.

You know i think fergie understands what any level headed human knows; the club is owned by them and they run it as they see fit. He can either leave or stay and do his best. He certainly does not think he can change the ownership. Neither does his retiring benefit the club and more importantly him. Thre young man has a stand named after him...

My thoughts are; what the hell has the Rock Of Gibraltar stuff got to do with it? If fans are leaving the club then they are indeed less than real fans, what’s the point of determining the commitment and affection of dissenters?, where’s is the proof that any supposed change in atmosphere is due to so called traditional fans leaving?, what is a traditional fan?, his recent statement demonstrates that he is uncomfortable with some United fans and yet comfortable with the Glazers!, and why does the writer feet it appropriate to play the Guilt Card in trying to gain a response?

In my opinion this is a very poor statement which, by the way it’s written, appears to originate from a rather uneducated and non-credible source; I’d expect my 12 year old daughter to do better!!!
