“A reminder that United were debt free before the Glazers took over in 2005. Enough is enough.”
Another added: “They should leave United, we are tired of them.”
It’s the latest twist in a crazy takeover saga which has seen bids of £5bn come in from Ratcliffe and Sheikh Jassim.
The duo’s offer came as the deadline for bids was extended by 48 hours in farcical scenes.
And United announced last week that there was to be a THIRD round of bidding until the end of the month.
Racliffe and Sheikh Jassim are believed to be the only willing participants left for a full takeover.
But their dreams could be dashed following the Glazers’ talks with Carlyle over a minority stake.
Former United star Gary Neville blasted the links, saying: "No thank you! This doesn’t work for United!
“The Glazer PR machine keeps leaking this type of minority partnership out there bi-weekly whilst stressing it’s a confidential process. Full Sale Only."
