David Gill, puppet on a string
David Gill has dismissed concerns surrounding the Glazer family, claiming the owners were "running the club the right way".

The amount of debt secured on the club and the Glazers' shareholding in it is more than £700m according to recent accounts.
Yep running the club the right way, going from zero pounds debt to £700m, Gill obviously went to the same school of economics as Gordon Brown
But he said the issue had perhaps received the wide coverage that it did because United was such a big club.
And he pointed to the cases of clubs like Chelsea, Manchester City, and AC Milan, where it is the owners who make key decisions "not the fans".
That'll be because those owners have put their own cash into the club to earn the right to make decisions.
"They are passionate about the club, they do understand sport," he added.
Bwhahahaha
