Her er vi i det diplomatiske hjørnet ja. Kanskje ikke helt uventet at det kom en sterk reaksjon da, etter såpass sterke (implisitte) påstander fra Knighton.

Jeg påtar meg så rollen som moderne NostradamusIan Stirling fra MUST wrote:– Han er en gambler, bløffer og selvpromotør. Det er større sjanse for at romvesener kjøper United enn at Knighton fronter et konsortium av milliardærer. Hvis du var milliardær, ville du jobbet med Knighton?
Edit: Men vil også påpeke at dette ikke er et offisielt svar fra MUST, men heller en personlig mening fra Stirling (som han helt sikkert deler med maaaange andre, både i og utenfor MUST).
Edit igjen: En bra 'tråd' her fra MUST offisielt (ser det ut som):
Why do we want to know the structure and backers? Because the number of people whose wealth is sufficient to pay the Glazers what they want and who are interested in United is vanishingly small, and they're not necessarily desirable people. They come down to three sources:
The first is sovereign wealth. Oil states, basically. city. PSG. Newcastle Utd.
The second is wealthy individuals. Sir Jim Ratcliffe is mentioned regularly. Is he a viable suitor? Who knows. He tried to buy Chelsea. I do wonder: would SJR need MK to do a deal? And would he be ready to commit to future funds?
The third is private equity money. There is a lot of this sloshing around now. Think Chelsea. The thing about PE money though is that the piper ALWAYS gets paid. These guys are not in it for the "love of the game" and need to monitored carefully.
