    INEOS’ Sir Jim Ratcliffe is co-owner of Manchester United with a minority investment in the club and sporting control. Big changes are happening behind the scenes at the club on the football side, but also throughout all departments as has been illustrated by press reports on emails sent by Sir Jim Ratcliffe to staff. Let us know what you think in the comments below...

      WHY dont you stop moaning and just telling those who are in charge what they should or could do... AND actually get pro-active and change it. 150,000 fans paying 16k each = 2.4 billion pounds= 50per cent shareholding.. seeing as ratcliffe got 25percent at 1.2 billion

      Agree, he doesn’t do click bait and too much speculation. Also unlike other United content creators who bitch and moan and are extremely negative towards the manager and the players, Mitten is always balanced on his criticism of the club, the structure, the manager and the players. So for me Mitten is the best, I would also make an exception for United Peoples, and sometimes Steve Howsen who both offer some great insights

    After City, Ten Hag was first up the podium. Having shook the hand of Price William and wee George. The next was Jim Radcliffe, who purposely turned to Alex Ferguson and totally 'Blanked' Ten. It was blatantly obvious and damn rude. He even hugged all the other players that followed. I have no idea what's happening, but a few of my United friends saw it and pointed out that it was edited out on Match of the Day. Today, he thanked all the players and the backroom staff whilst ignoring Ten Hag's achievements, just no mention. It seems strange; it really put me off, big Jim; but I sincerely hope that he's a better man than that!

    Some areas to progress seem clear and should be possible - with obvious funding constraints. These are - becoming a proper high performance sports organization, infrastructure, recruitment, community and fan engagement and young player development (as both players and outside of football). However, the playing side, and also club culture will be a lot more challenging and will take many years. It seems to me that we have still not developed a post Ferguson identity, which also reflects how much the football landscape has changed.

Getting the other two out maybe harder but at least there's light at the end of the long tunnel. Overall I do believe Sir Jim genuinely cares about the club, something totally missing since 2005.

      @creepingbrain 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The only long-term debt is the $650m Glazer Debt. That's costing us about £24m a year interest out of revenues of £650m. It doesn't affect things like transfer spending, it affects things infrastructure spending, but SJR is pumping money in for infrastructure so that debt isn't important right now. Of that $650m debt, $425m of it is the bonds that are really low interest rates and can't be refinanced or paid off until June 2027 anyhow. I don't think anything will be done with the Glazer Debt until it needs refinancing in 2027 and 2029
      Transfer debt is normal football business, future trade payables. The RCF is a short term credit facility, and SJR paid down £120m of that early this year to reduce the interest paid this year.

      Yep. I hate when people pass debt off as being almost a good thing when all it's done is suck us dry over 20 years. Heck I'd even say the Ineos debt is hardly encouraging, they borrowed via Ineos to buy us. Doesn't matter how you slice it for such ruthless businessmen those interest charges & impact on their own balance sheet has an impact on how they view & run the club. We as fans just bent over & took it yet again. For a guy who was boasting about being a boyhood fan with wild riches, least he could've done is bought us outright & if not use his own money for shares he did buy. Just doesn't sit right with me. Long gone are the days of clubs being community assets, but they can at least be ran in a better way with minimal operational level of debt.

    I really hope it works out with INEOS but realistically I'm not convinced that will happen. They have no proven success stories in sport. They took over the best cycling team in the world and now they are bang average. What experience has David Brailsford got in football...absolutely zero so how can he help plan our future?
    Then there's the finance and how much investment they can seriously generate. Yes Ratcliffe can go begging for investment for his "Wembley of the North", project but this will take a very long time. Meanwhile the likes of City and Newcastle will be moving much faster and we'll never be able to compete.

      With the investment now required after years of under investment in the infrastructure and money wasted on so many players, how can the debt be removed? Bearing in mind that interest rates are so high its still not a great outlook is it?

      We're a PLC. The new CEO is Ineos' man. The new CFO is Ineos' man. These are the people responsible for the day to day, month to month, year to year, running of the club including the finances. The Glazers are little more than passive shareholders.

    Thanks Andy. I don't see him doing this just to line the Glazers pockets. Wasn't there a 19 month deadline for 100% offers from outside investors that had to be matched or am I imagining that? I think he sees this as his legacy (looks far better than a Chemical company) so I'd guess he'll be wanting to take full control at some point.

      There's drag along rights that kick in after 18 months. These protect the interests of the Glazers and the A shareholders. Because SJR has such a big shareholding he has the ability to block a hypothetical full sale to a third party, so that's why the drag along rights are there.
      And there's also tag along rights (which the twitterati didn't pick up on) that protect the interests of SJR. This means that, notwithstanding a full sale to a third party, the Glazers cannot sell any of their shares to anybody else without first offering them to SJR.
      In effect, these tag along and drag along rights are put/call options in drag. I expect that within 18 months SJR will have bought more Glazer shares and will have majority ownership.
      If it wasn't for the problem with the A shareholders and the independent board members and legal counsel determining that they had to be given equal consideration, then SJR would already have all the Glazers shares.

      I think people vastly overestimate the value Jimmy puts on 'legacy'. He's a ruthless businessman first & foremost. He's shown he doesn't care what the public think when he backed brexit & other tory policies before ditching the country to move to tax free Monaco. Also said he'd build his Granadier car factory in UK only to build it in France. Same bloke living in Monaco now is launching a politicians pr campaign for taxpayers funds for the new Old Trafford...a club owned by 8 different billioanries. Forgive me for being wary. I've followed Jim closely since 2019 when he became involved in Mercedes F1...lot's of red flags.

    Oh the glazers are viewed in Tampa about the same as they are back home in Manchester. At least by friends here who are Bucs fans. They show up, threatened to leave Tampa unless the city pay for a new stadium, they get the stadium gratis (funded by a city/community tax that’s still being paid for), season tickets have gone up 30% in 2 years meaning less renewals = a local tv blackout again. Fans still think of Malcolm fondly because they were crap before he showed up, but the sons don’t give a flying, and they see that.

    I believe if we think of the Glazers as just stock holders, the way we thought about stock holders and investors back say in the 70s., we can sort of discount them. Unfortunately we'll never forget that they are there. We can then get behind Sir Jim, and try to bring stability back to the club. I honestly believe he is the best option we could have hoped for. The Arab investment would have the same restrictions, Sir Jim will spend as much as he can to restore United to the highest level. It makes sense, if United are successful, under the conditions, we can spend more money on the best players and the business side pays better dividends for investors.
    We need United to be healthy again, God it's been agony since Sir Alex left.
