To be honest with you, I couldn't give a flying F&^k who takes them over.
I'm not what you would call an avid footie fan.

However, there is uproar in the UK with Man U fans going bananas. They are even pursuing legal channels to try and stop it. They believe Galzer will rape the club and not invest any further after spening his lot purchasing it in the first place. Money grabbing yank.

Read this at SI.com (Sports Illustrated). Funny stuff, very pationate fans.

A huge battle continues to brew over the world's most famous sporting team -- and we don't mean the Yankees. Buccaneers owner Malcolm Glazer, after months of trying, finally took complete control of Manchester United on Monday by increasing his stake in the team to 75 percent. Still, this fight isn't over by a long shot if United fans have anything to do with it. ManU faithful say they are mostly concerned that the debt Glazer is adding to finance the takeover will force him to raise prices and/or spend less on players. But the peculiar venom of the fans' antipathy does seem related to the fact that Glazer is a foreigner -- and an American at thatLast Thursday, about 50 ManU fans interrupted a JP Morgan reception in Manchester because the bank has helped finance Glazer's efforts, throwing wine glasses at guests and hitting at least one. Said a spokesperson for fan group Shareholders United, "This is just the start of what is going to be a very long and very ugly campaign." Masterpiece Theater, this isn't
