For those who don’t know, Manchester United supporters, including former player Gary Neville, have long had a strong dislike for the club’s owners, the Glazers. On the other hand, former Liverpool player Jamie Carragher finds this situation amusing. Sir Jim Ratcliffe was reportedly planning to buy a 25% stake in Manchester United, according to recent reports from Sky Sports. This development indicated that the Qataris, who were considering purchasing the club as a whole, were withdrawing their offer.
On Twitter, Gary Neville shared his opinions and listed the steps he thought Manchester United needed to take to advance, from improving their training facilities to handling the team’s debt. Never one to back down, Neville responded by suggesting that when things go wrong with Liverpool’s owners FSG (Fenway Sports Group), Carragher might need his own set of non-negotiables. There have been ownership issues with both Manchester United and Liverpool. These clubs’ American owners have held onto power despite facing a lot of opposition. Manchester United supporters have been outspoken in calling for the Glazers to leave, while Liverpool supporters have criticized their owners for taking part in the disastrous European Super League.
Undoubtedly, both clubs have received financial investments, but the owners’ handling of various issues has irked the fan bases. Even though Man United’s takeover appears inevitable, Merseyside residents do chant for FSGOUT, but it doesn’t seem like it will happen any time soon.
