    Mistaking me with someone else mate, I think both offer the squad a lot. There's a player in Fraser and he showed glimpses of that last season and as for Wood his hold up play is unmatched

    Ah so THAT'S why Albert got a Saudi Telecom Directory (at least I assume that's what he meant by STD).

    This guy was constantly wrong throughout the takeover saga.

    To be fair he does say "not entirely inconceivable". It's also not entirely inconceivable that I bump into a pissed-up Jennifer Lawrence on a night out and she takes me back to her hotel.

    They were offered the chance to buy Man Utd (which admittedly was their 1st choice) in 2019 for £4.7bn. They walked away as it wasn't seen as an investment. The club had all the commercial deals in place, was in champions league regularly with very limited room for growth. If they wanted it as a plaything they would have not batted an eye lid at the price with the funds they have.

    To be honest, they (PIF) can walk away and sell us off if they want, so long as it's not back to that fat twat Ashley. Will speed up the glory hunters getting bored having to wait for a trophy and tickets for proper fans will be easily available again <laugh>

    Yeah, yeah, we get it, so you're a 'proper fan', no need to keep milking it.

    No, I mean those that want to go regularly or even long-time fans that go to occasional matches can get tickets again easily without the fanny on we have just now which nobody is going to convince me would be sustainable if we weren't A) ****ing loaded and B) Doing well.

    If we were still doing **** - yeah we'd still be hitting the 50,000 figures but there wouldn't be the crazy demand thats going on at the minute as its suddenly become the cool thing to do.
