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 !!

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!

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.

Small voice of reason in a cacophony of silly ideas.

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

Maybe a chant of 'Are you Norwich in disguise?' this season?

Yes, not quite sure why so many United fans have taken up supporting Delia Smith's cooking team.
