'Undignified silence' - Rio Ferdinand tears into Glazers over Manchester United takeover

manchestereveningnews.co.uk

Rio Ferdinand has laid into The Glazer Family for their lack of communication over the sale of Manchester United but urged fans not to allow their ill feelings to hinder performances.

It's been 10 months since Manchester United were effectively put up for sale, with bidders invited to come forward with offers.

Since then, very little has been heard and supporters continue to wait. United have been hamstrung by Financial Fair Play this summer window, though the rising debt on the club hasn't helped either.

That is a result of the Glazer's neglect over the past decade and beyond. Ferdinand has insisted the owners remain the biggest issue at the club and urged them to bring the takeover speculation to a resolution.

"Of course, there are people working in executive roles at United who have also failed this iconic football club in recent years because they simply haven’t been up to the job.
