Got Your Green & Yellow Scarf Yet ??

A consortium of businessmen tipped as possible buyers of Manchester United will shelve plans to make an offer, a report says.

The Red Knights were expected to make a bid of about £1bn in the coming weeks.

But the Sunday Times said this had been put on ice after investors baulked at the club's valuation.
What a terrible shame !

Maximum disruption ... minimum outcome. Could barely be better. The Green & Yellows won't go away, will remain disruptive & bitter, yet little will alter.

Good-oh !! :pissed:

See, Bobo, I'm wondering if the rest of us can find Pro-Glazer scarves to wear to matches. Tampa Bay Buccaneers scarves - just the job. I'm even up for the marketing of a Glazer style beard that clips onto your ears whilst wearing a Tampa Bay Buccaneers baseball cap - replecating this stylish and rather fetching look;

Bobo, my friend, we might just be on to something here! :shock:
May the bridges I burn light your way

If I were the Glazers I'd be commissioning a green and yellow away kit for next season.

I heard of there being a lot of people wearing green and gold scarves buying stuff from the Megastore on match days as well. I mean, talk about completely missing the point....

I'd model it on that lovely star-spangled banner.
In a world that has decided
That it's going to lose its mind
Be more kind, my friends, try to be more kind.

Small voice of reason in a cacophony of silly ideas.
You can judge the whole world on the sparkle that you think it lacks.
Yes, you can stare into the abyss, but it's staring right back.

I agree entirely, though personally, the strip I liked was the grey one in which they turned invisible according to old red-nose. I always like it when Stretford are not able to be seen.

And start wearing green and yellow scarfs themselves. And selling them in the club shop...

Maybe organise a friendly with Norwich too...

Yep, I think they've got so many fans that some of them just don't 'get it'.

I hope the Glazers stay :D
Troll and proud of it.

Yes, not quite sure why so many United fans have taken up supporting Delia Smith's cooking team.
Depression is just a state of mind, supporting Bolton is also a state of mind hence supporting Bolton must be depressing QED
