Worst News Ever?
#8
Sheikh Jassim's bid to take over Manchester United started on the wrong foot after he angered the Glazers by saying he wanted to return the club to "former glories", according to the Daily Mail.

The report claims the Qatari bid to buy Man Utd, one many thought would be successful, never recovered after the statement was made following initial offers.

"To say that comment did not go down well with the Glazers would be an understatement," it adds.

The Raine Group, the American merchant bank overseeing the talks for Man Utd, warned bidders to keep their mouths shut in what was interpreted as a "direct shot" at the Qataris.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe, the only other serious bidder, appears to be on the verge of finalising a deal to take 25 per cent of the club.
