Who writes this shyte? uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/mason-greenwood-values-not-value-121328518.htmlFootball clubs, at their core, belong to a community.Aye right tell that to the Man Ure fans who detest the American owners. You no longer have a local football team, you now have an asset that is nothing more than a global brand to be milked for all its worth by the overseas owners. See Newcastle Utd for details. Football survived for months without fans, what are they, not needed in todays digital era, the betting syndicates and owners are raking in millions each week without fans. |

a global brand to be milked for all its worth by the overseas owners. 25% of Manchester United is owned rather closer to home, by Lindsell Train funds. Edit: After posting that I started to wonder if it could possibly be true. Anyway, the source of my information was fintel.io/so/us/manu/lindsell-train I could be misunderstanding it. |

For what it is worth, allegedly  "Manchester United are currently owned by the six children of the late former owner Malcolm Glazer: Avram, Joel, Kevin, Bryan, Darcie and Edward Glazer. Malcolm Glazer took hold of a majority stake in the club in 2005 through investment company Red Football Ltd. When he died in May 2014 after a long illness following a stroke, the 90 per cent controlling stake he owned was split equally between the six Glazer children. Joel and Avram had been in charge of the day-to-day running of the club since their father’s stroke in April 2006. The pair are now co-chairmen with Kevin, Bryan, Darcie and Edward holding positions as directors. In March 2021, Avram Glazer put £70 million ($97m) worth of his shares up for sale." www.goal.com/en/news/who-owns-manchester-united-who-are-the-glazer-family/18j8f1yu1tliv1hrp93zeffh7n |

I dont know where Linsdell is located, and I dont know if you have ever been to Manchester, they consider Scousers to be foreigners, I will make no comment on Yorkshire or Cockneys and what their thoughts are about those places,  . |

I thought you chaps from the Business/Investment section would know about Lindsell Train, Morningstar whatever. I know their initial intention was to empower investors, after that I fell asleep.

^^^ What I haven't been able to find out, however, is where in England Lindsell and Train were born.
The London address may well simply be where the company is registered - possibly just a postal address. It doesn't mean it's actually where the people work.

We chaps gave up on Linsdell years ago, have you seen their performance figures recently? You are behind the curve old chap, its all bitcoin these days, see the smoker for details, he thinks he has a brilliant idea to beat the taxman, it will all end in tears I fear, the innoncence and naivety of youth, they never learn. 5555555. |
