The takeover of Manchester United by the Tampa Bay Buccs owner, Malcolm Glazer, has caused such a fuss in the football(soccer) world.
Fans protested last night and had a mini riot because Glazer's sons turned up at Old Trafford to see their investment.
The Man Utd fans are venting xenophobic, bigotted views because they feel an American has no right in buying their precious team. If he was a Russian billionaire like Roman Abramhovic of Chelsea then they would probably be happy with that.
I am loving every minute of it. They deserve everything that happens to them. Their flagrant disregard of the FA Cup competition 4 years ago was disgusting. The money grabbing scum that sold the club on the stock market in the first place have put them in this position now.
The fans seem to think that because they are 'consumers' then they deserve a say in how the club runs. They should shut-up and get on with supporting the football. Leave the running of the club to the new owner.
My only concern is that Glazer borrowed the money to purchase the club by plunging Man Utd into millions of pounds of debt. Do you think I could buy a house like that? Could I borrow the money off the owner of the house I am buying? Let's hope he knows what he is doing.

I've been saying for a while now that it's Glazer's nationality that is getting the collective backs up - not what he's doing.
