You're just fuming because you can't see my tweets. Great stuff.

Don't you like to tell people they are wrong as well?

You're wrong :coffee:

Textor Is not a billionaire. Never a viable proposition

Everton needed £60 million from Friedkin because there was a finance gap to finalise the stadium. Colin Chong misled people when he claimed that funding was "finalised"

Could well end up falling through. Look how desperate many people are to own a PL club and are unable to. It's not as easy as it looks. Ratcliffe resorted to gaining 27% and publicly humiliated himself by stating he is unable to sack the manager.

Highly unlikely. The court case/injunction is only likely to save or cost TFG an additional £100m to £25m depending upon what is decided and accepted. It's a timing and resource issue rather than something that will stop the TFG acquisition.

They're professional business people and for their shareholders (Friedkins etc) they are obligated to attempt to obtain best value for themselves.

Sorry Kev I’ve just done a bit of research off the back of this post, and it would appear there are no football clubs in the Premier League without an owner.

I’m saying there is no doubt intent on behalf of many to own a PL club. Acquiring one isn’t as simple as that though. The Glazers are hated by the fans and still in situ.

I see your point now mate.

I think the difference between The Glazers and Moshiri is Man Utd are still a money making machine for the Glaziers, whilst we're a loss making business with and owner who's apparently has lost access to cash.


I personally think if Moshiri still had access to dough he wouldn't be selling us regardless of fan feeling.

The Glazers aren’t looking to sell so it was a really strange example to use.
