Guest muttley Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 The share price has finished the day stuck at 300p,which is the price that Malcolm Glazer is reported to have paid for his latest batch of shares,but what now? Fans threatening to boycott merchandise and matches,Sir Alex Ferguson on the point of resigning,top players being linked with summer moves.....all this points to a disaster for the team.But what about the company? I would have thought that this was a dead-cert for a fall,but I have no experience of this kind of takeover.Would shorting this stock be a good idea.It looks too obvious to me!

SJJ Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Also if (when) Glazer gets the quoted '75%' then withdraws from the public market (as I understand it from the Beloved Beeb) what happens to the remaining 25%; are they just scrapped and hard cheddar for the owners of these shares?

dunroamin Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 they reckon gate prices are gonna go up. is this not like the housing market? - surely there are not a lot of people left who can pay more than 30 quid plus every 2 weeks to see a game? i'm sure they're already at saturation???

van hoogstraten Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 A large part of Manutd's fan base comes from more affluent areas outside of Manchester - for all their huffing and puffing the fans will be there next season and Glazer will be able to extract a lot more yet before they turn their backs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
