I've moved this to a better title as the Malcolm Glazer Takeover could be about him taking over anything. Do we think this needs its own article? We need to make sure it is scrupulously neutral to stick to Wikipedia policy. Secretlondon 12:27, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Malcolm Glazer#Manchester United is the same length as this article, yet more up to date. Merging and redirecting seems to be the obvious course of action. – Smyth\ talk 3 July 2005 21:41 (UTC)

...to "Glazer family takeover of Manchester United". MG played little public role in the takeover (except as a tabloid bogeyman), and it is his children (who are middle-aged) who have been to the fore so far as one can tell. I don't know about the internal politics of the family, but it appears he was well on the way to handing over at least day to day control of the family interests when the takeover happened, and the role of the wider family should be referenced in the title.

There should be a lot more information on how enraged the fans of Manchester United were. Things like them wearing black to go to matches to represent the death of their beloved club. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Richard LVP Real ( talk • contribs) 14:35, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
Should we add a section for the LUHG campaign against the Glazers? Conay ( talk) 21:01, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
Why isn't this article named "Ownership of Manchester United"? I propose we change its name to this, then add more information on previous ownership and its time on the stock market. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomlock01 ( talk • contribs) 22:05, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
I read this whole article and get the sense it was written by an United fan who's clearly upset with the Glazer's ownership. All I see is negative in every sentence and it's quite unnecessary in my opinion. I think a section where it shows how much money the Glazer have spent to bring in players and trophies that have been won should be added and in turn make the article less on sided.

Should an infobox stating Manchester United plc financial data, ownership per ownership rights and slice in share capital appropriate? Matthew_hk t c 03:54, 31 January 2017 (UTC)
