It's a bit odd him buying Man Utd, he seems a perfect fit for them lot over the park.

Not at all being in Man U is close enough for this "B".

It’s a bit weird their situation to be honest. They are giving him ALOT of control. Maybe the other shareholders know they have no idea what they are doing so they are passing the bill to the rich guy.

I think it's that and the fact that Glazer's don't really care. They just want it to make them money, which it will, but now they'll never be the ones blamed if the success doesn't come and if it does then it's even better for them.

Really starting to get an unhealthy dislike for that Ratcliffe.

There's nothing unhealthy about your dislike, he's an awful, awful man who deserves nothing but dislike from everyone.

It's really quite something how 99.9% of UTD fans arebfawning over his every word just because he isn't a Glazer.

As bad as Kopites.

Nailed it.

I've never had any love for Man United but they used to at least be an institution with a bit of pride, now they're laying off 25% of their staff and cryarsing in the media all because they simply can't afford the footballers they believe they're entitled to. Pathetic.

imagine being one of those laid off when you were probably earning buttons, and the footballerists earn your annual (now lost) salary in minutes, and your new boss is the richest bloke in the country. Disgraceful.

We may be rubbish at football but I'd take that any day over the way these others act

All the while being happy-clapped on by their shareholders, the media and fans in Asia or wherever.

Meanwhile locally a whole bunch of people lose their jobs to pay a dividend.

He's a good , solid premier league level centre half but that's a lot of money for someone whose realistically in his prime and not likely to improve....

Makes utd's bid seem even more ridiculous

That's great for us tbh. £40m for a 27 year old English centre back that's never represented his country at any level. That's a very good argument to value Branthwaite - already far superior - at double that or more, especially given his importance to us.

Exactly, he's nowhere near the player JB is right now let alone will be in 5 years time. Honestly this shows our 70m asking price is if anything an under-valuation.

How are Westham affording £40m for a centre half, have they had a PSR bypass operation ?

100m for an academy product will do a lot for your PSR.

Just been watching the news on BBC1. They were reporting from Jamaica about the effects of Hurricane Beryl, and one of the guys they interviewed was named Everton Brathwaite…….great name! …..I wonder if he changed it by deed poll?…...Surname not quite the same, but I bet he’s a blue.
