Close the thread !

LOL :-)

f**k the government and Putin.

Disgusting how Roman was forced out. He was a huge credit to the country and took care of NHS staff during the pandemic, and this is how he gets paid back.

Disgusting.

The end of the Roman Empire, it started abruptly and it ended suddenly, in the middle of it, good times and bad times. Thank you Roman shalom and do svidaniya!

The new age has come, the time of the...of the...hmmm not sure how I can call those new guys, the 3 musketeers?

So makes it sound like a ticking tome bomb set for 10 years then....

Well gives Sir Jim 10 years to plan his takeover. Should be plenty of time to be on time this time lol.

How old will Mr. J be in 10 years? 😅

Ah Mr. Abramovich what to say, what to say. 

When you bought our club out of the blue this then young adult did not believe it. I love Ken Bates and his passion for the club, honestly thought he would never let us go. So when my best mate broke the news to me I thought he was full of it, as he usually is.

I wondered who is this bloke, he cannot love us like uncle Ken did surley. Boy how wrong was I.

Back then it was a great season to make the CL places, or have a half decent title run, or lift a league cup. I did not dare to dream of league titles or CLs. Man United and a host of European sides were just that much better than us.

You ripped all that up, and you gave us amazing teams, amazing moments and amazing memories.

You are one of us, always will be, and we love you.

Thank you Roman.

Which Mr. J? If you mean Sir Jim, 79.

But did you mean this Mr. J?

Roman still owns the club until the bid is approved and the transfer has gone through. We still have the opportunity to win 1 more trophy under his ownership, surely it won't all be done in a week's time.

Or alternatively it gives Roman 10 years to sort things out and enable him to buy the club back !

He'll be 65 ... certainly better than a 79 year old Ratcliffe LOL.

David Lee and Frank Leboeuf were the hardest kickers of a ball we had, well maybe add Rudiger to that list as well.

Must say I am gobsmacked at how much we have been sold for ... a new record for a sports team in any sport, and about 3 times more than the Glazers paid for United.

Going to be fascinating to see how the consortium's business plan will unfold to make any sort of return on that ...

Were like the biggest Superyacht a billionaire could buy, 10% of the sale price is approx the annual running costs. Billionaires don't get scared by big numbers.
