Glazer Dead

[Peter Pedant]

I dont normally lurk here, as I am not sporty
but the tickers are showing that old Glazer the "owner" of Man U has died {RIP} and what I ask does this mean for the football club?

Nothing perhaps - he's really a company...

"Glazer's death is not expected to have any significant effect on the ownership of United, with the family retaining a 90% share in the club"

Google is certainly showing hits on this.

Can't see there being much in the way of change at Man U, unless the family decide to sell.

[Ric.ror]

Which they won't Tony as (despite this season) Manchester United is their greatest asset

[tonyav]

I've no doubt that they won't, Ric.ror, but hey who knows what the future holds.

The media said that the response from Manc was muted - but it is almost as quiet as the Grave.

Stateside, in the Land of the Free, it is much more in the line of:
Hey whadda guy ! He built up his father's (watch part firm I think) firm and made zillions of bucks. N you know what ? He was so modest you wouldnt know it. He was good for everyone (Irony intended) - he was good for his family, he was good for this country, and most of all he was good for himself, everyone without exception benefitted.....
