Save it for the corner room, this is no confession box. :p
Are you talking about Malcolm Glazier (sp?) taking over at Man U?
^^ yes, he has increased his shareholding to increase his majority at the club, I think it is inevitable he try for a out and out take over. From what I hear, he can definately afford to do so.
I dunno rumours have been going all year. Hes been increasing in small amounts, which just makes the share pirce go up cause of take-over reports. If he was really interested wouldnt he have already made his move.
Also hes second highest share holder after those two race horse owners who fegie got involved with. Both have less than 30%, I think theres a rule that if u reach 30% u have to make a complete take over.
Plus I think hes worth under a billion (correct me if im wrong), is that really rich enough to buy Man U and make enough investment and big money signings. I think its most likely a long term investment.
Although someone will probably try and make a takeover sooner or later. Plenty of people with more money than sense (abrahomovic).
