Manchester United- We Will Fix The Sport
A recent article on CNN discussed the takeover of Manchester United by Malcom Glazer and the feelings of their fans:
Supporters’ groups, whose opposition helped prevent a 1999 takeover by satellite television company BSkyB, demonstrated on Thursday at Old Trafford, home of the most famous club in British football, to voice their anger.
Fans say Glazer has no knowledge of the football side of the club and is interested purely in its brand, rivalled only by Real Madrid, and revenues.
They fear his £790 million ($1.49 billion) offer will saddle United with heavy debts, forcing up ticket prices and diverting funds which could be used to improve the team which finished a disappointing third this season.
Their real fear lies in the knowledge that their team engages in a fake sport that is the beard hooligans use to misbehave.
At last we are going to see the beginning of the end of this silly sport. It is just a matter of time before we acquire other teams and disband them so that we can spread better and more interesting sports around the world.
Cue manaical laughter.
