The Guardian newspaper has an article about Ineos ownership of Nice FC. In short Nice were a well run club with excellent scouting and they developed players for the first team and sold others for a profit. Ineos destroyed the good scouting and management of the club and instead of scouting and bringing in promising talent they started bringing in has-beens from the EPL. Nice FC were a top 4 club 3 out of the six years before Ineos arrived and they got worse under Ineos. The Scouting expert and coach and management departed and they were highly critical of Ineo's commitment and ownership. The atmosphere at the club was described as toxic. The Nice FC fans certainly aren't happy with Ineos. SJR announced that Nice would challenge PSG in Ligue 1 but they are currently 27 points off the pace. The Guardian newspaper said that Ineos are in it for business purposes and questioned their commitment. The newspaper also said that Ineos in addition to bidding on United had bid on Chelsea and enquired about buying Liverpool. SJR has run Nice FC as well as the Glazers have run United because he isn't a fan but a businessman.

Based on this info, SJR would be the Glazers 2.0. Lack of planning, scattergun approach to recruitment and wrong infrastructure appointments.

[@3chords490]

Totally agree. Sir Jim , like the Glazers , sound like they are clever businessmen but very poor at creating good structures and strategies within football clubs. They will know how to make money out of Man United but not know ( or care ) how to make Man United competitive on the pitch. This is the problem. The Glazers will make a fortune from the sale. It’s a brilliant piece of business , but it will have nothing to do with any great successes on the field.

[@kennyalpha22]

Ideally, you'd want club to be owned by a fan led consortium but let's be honest we live in a world where state backed clubs and super wealth owned teams are winning the major competitions. If we want to dominate football then we have to get someone like Qatar. The fact that Sheikh Jassim is MUFC fan and wants to involve ex-players and fans gives me hope with the Qatari takeover. After watching yesterday's UCL match between Madrid and City, I think Qataris are the best option we have to reach that level otherwise we may as well start calling ourselves a mid-table former great club.

The last time Nice were in the europa league under RATcliffe they finished bottom of their group which isn't necessarily bad until you factor in there was an Israeli team in their group, so he promised fans they will compete with PSG when they can't even beat Israeli teams and seeing as PSG has been in a champions league final this decade this shows that Qatar is already a better choice than RATcliffe. And look at the teams they have lost to since 2020 in the ucl: Bayern 2x, man city and real madrid so they don't get easy ties and when they do they normally win.

Taking 3 to 4 years to Employ Compentent people I'm footballing positions in a football club...VERY POOR IMO. That's the NO 1 PRIORITY IN ANY BUSINESS EMPLOY BEST IN CLASS. NOT IMPRESSED with what I heard.

They have yet to prove they can run the club well

[@jeffhunter2091]

@scottfarrell1906 after 3 to 4 years that's a MASSIVE RED FLAG AND CONCERN. No disrespect to NICE FC but if he can't Run them efficiently as a FOOTBALL CLUB AND INSTITUTION... HOW the f*** will they run arguably ONE of the THREE BIGGEST CLUBS IN WORLD FOOTBALL????

And Qutar will, no they will interfere and want who they want, liability players like Mbappe, Neymar as signature signings who cause trouble just like Ronaldo

[@jeffhunter2091]

@richyclubsport5155 one thing I will say about the Qataris is they won't NEED LOANS and will clear the debt. On th3 other hand I don't know but there is evidence in the video above about SNAKCLIFFE'S CLEAR INCOMEPTENCE AS A FOOTBALL CLUB OWNER. FACT.
