they are deffo stuck out there.
link please.
Read on various sites they were stuck on the runway in their plane

Not a fan of the sun either, but it wasnt only the sun reporting it. Like others have said such a takeover would have to go through all of the due dilligence and be announced/pre announced in the right way to the stock market. That being said I do believe there is no smoke without fire.
Are you saying they were trying to take-over a plane?
No terrorism jokes or Con-Air references before anyone thinks of posting one. Should go without saying really but have to post it as I know what some are like.
I'm signed into linkedin, and on his account he's shared the news on his feed. The comments from fellow business men who attend their conferences are interesting as the post itself.
"Dennis Cortez Value Creator. Strategy and Business Development Director. 2h
I've seen this coming when I saw Avram Glazier and Richard Arnold in Riyadh during the MISK Global Forum in November last year. Seems more than a reality soon! Sorry I missed you there Brother Moaid. Will try to catch up next time and looking forward to attending the MISK Global Forum again."

Was said afterwards that it wasn't an issue with the plane that kept them there.
Looks like it's happening then?
Utdreport fishing for RT’s as per.
They will buy us. So much smoke
Rumours are that they were eventually told to get off the plane. Maybe mechanical or something else. Have also read that they misbehaved a lot when they were there
He certainly hasn't posted it on his twitter which would seem an unusual move.
Fair do’s.
I just think if this had a small remote possibility of happening, it would be all over social media with various media outlets picking up on the story.
Will see what happens
Interesting
Hopefully not. The linkedin account is genuine. That does not, of course, mean that he is right (and has broken a world exclusive 17+ hours before any other outlet/person).
مرحبا بكم في مانشستر
Would be the worst thing ever - much worse than Glazers.
Why would they be casually talking about it on their public linkedin feed ? Maybe its just some kind of commercial deal
The fact that he's an absolute nobody also detracts from the story's credence. It all just smells like total BS. Thankfully.
Woodward with Saudi money would be incredibly fun, i'm just saying.

Looks inevitable with there being several meetings.
Seems to be too much smoke.

We need this.
We'll become a PR asset. Hopefully a well funded PR asset but a PR asset all the same.
Wtf?
Yeah, whether this is true or not as you say there does seem to be a lot of smoke at the moment. Not sure how I feel really.
It’s on the internet so it must be true.
This is far from official and is still on going, if a buyout is in the works.
Something this enormous isn't going to be remotely official or mentioned like this. There will be NDAs and only a handful of people will only be in the actual know.
People should just focus on tomorrow and walk away from this noise for the time being.

They’re relaxing some of rules in KSA. Having women wrestling et al. I can definitely see them buying us as a giant PR machine.
Hopefully he's the first out the door
People thought Chevrolet was bad, how are they going to like Saudi Aramco plastered on our kits?

Can you imagine Ole with Saudi money? AWB, Maguire, Tarkowski and Shaw in defence, Rice, Longstaff and Maddison in midfield, Jadon and Rashy on the flanks, Wilson upfront.
Seems like a mechanical issue

It's going to happen but I'm not sure when. I'll call B.S on this story for now but it's inevitable we will go that route.
Saudis are actively diversifying from Oil and they'll have more than enough $ to spend if the Aramco IPO happens. Overall, they seem to be slowly trying to modernize, but as of now are pretty evil. I for one am happy to be rid of the Glazers.
If it makes us the best team in England who cares? We need to be unleashed and allowed to use our money to it’s full potential and a new structure implemented. We could be dominant.
Lingard is young too he'll be a regular starter by then.
But it would feel hollow.
