  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

Arabian Business. Unless you're treating that as gospel.
It's supposedly a very legit business publication.

Bro, Vinny Mac don’t have that sort of money. In all seriousness though, would be hilarious watching Musk go to town on United. He’d make Chelsea’s new owner look like the folks who run City.
Liked just so I could unlike.
 
the problem with United is twofold. They have much better name recognition worldwide than Liverpool, so the Glazers will likely want more money in a potential sale. For any of the buying parties, they will have to heavily invest in the facilities that have gone with little to no investment for how long? I was at Old Trafford in 2016 & it was not in a good condition, so I'd imagine it is much worse shape now.

Yeah Old Trafford will need to be rebuilt or completely renovated. So anyone buying it will probably have add what 700+mill minimum to whatever they're paying already.

Infantino. But yes, he should be out. Unfortunately, he's safe, since no one even challenged him when he was re-elected.

Also he’s far from the singular issue with FIFA. You don’t get corrupt stuff like this because of one crooked guy.

It takes an entire organization of corruption to get these type of results.

Don’t get me wrong, he should absolutely go, and a strong leader could help change the culture, but somehow firing him isn’t remotely going to fix all the issues.
