Hello Ed, hope all is well with you.
Please could you provide an update on the sale process?
Thank you.

{Ed002's Note - The situation as I understand it is the owners want further offers but both parties, certinly Ineos, will look to perhaps some restructuring of the offer but that may not see additional funds.}

will that restructuring involve Sir Jim giving them the voting rights that they want or something totally different.

{Ed002's Note - Not such they will have any significant control.}

Thanks for update Ed002, always good to get some truth amid the social media speculation.

Basically they want to sell enough for someone else to come in and heavily invest and try and make their leftover share worth more.

We are basically at the point now where the vendor has been told by the estate agent that there are two offers on the table, and the vendor has asked the estate agent to try and shake them down or play them off against eachother to get the best deal they can.

I suspect if one of the buyers pulls out then a deal could be concluded fairly quickly. But the whole time there are two people fighting over it then the Glazers will see the dollar signs and keep stringing out the process to maximise their profit.

It’s a multi billion pound deal not a 2 up 2 down in Manchester…

One thing is for sure when it gets done, it’s goodbye to ETH and whoebver buys bring in there own team, that’s what’s needed.

Who do you think is the ‘right team’ then Maze?

Not sure what Maze thinks but imo clearly the right team would be You and Shappy! As one

Just not sure what name you’re using this month, or we back to GDS2 now Giggs been retired! And here is you constantly going on about people using different names! Mind boggles.

Maze / Trafford,

The difference is I made it clear I was GDS when I was posting as G2S, it was hardly difficult to work out was it? It’s practically the same! An Ed who isn’t on the site anymore blocked GDS so I was asked to create a different profile which I did.

I’ve no idea whether all of your previous incarnations have been banned or what but the fact people are immediately aware it’s you within 2 posts possibly suggests the same will just happen again. Everyone worked out Trafford was just a wind up merchant, possibly not even a United fan, and now back as Strangeways, just all a bit weird isn’t it?

I can't believe people want ETH out already. He is clearly a talented coach. Has not has a settled defence since he started. Suffered significant squad injuries. Unable to get rid of players he clearly does not want due to previous management errors and hamstrung by FFP rules.

Give the guy time to rebuild the squad to how he wants and also have a full squad to pick from.

I personally ignore it and most are never going to be happy, I am convinced of that.

He will get us going like a juggernaut once he has his full fingerprints on the club. We no longer enjoy a massive financial gap with other top teams and will not be able to buy our way out of this.

A revamp of the culture, players, academy and pretty much everything he is doing is needed and will take time. Going to tune in tonight and enjoy the game.

It will not be easy as they are in good form and have good players. A win is a must for CL qualifications.
