11月1日,体育新闻快讯:曼联在一场败北切尔西之后,与同样陷入降级漩涡的水晶宫并肩,陷入了极其尴尬的境地。对此,记者Henry Winter对曼联的当前状况以及格雷泽家族的管理发表了个人见解。
On social media platforms, Henry Winter expressed his view that it is an undeniable necessity for Manchester United to break free from the shackles of the Glazer family, a point he has been advocating since 2005. However, the question remains: How exactly should this be achieved? The process of replacing the management is fraught with immense difficulty. Some United supporters have even proposed that they would prefer to endure relegation, as this might prompt the Glazers to reconsider selling their stake; yet, such a demotion might only serve to strengthen their grip, given that the value of an English Premier League club far exceeds that of an English Football League (EFL) club. There are also fans who suggest boycotting matches, yet what right do they have to compel loyal supporters to cease their backing of the team? Moreover, even if seats for a few matches remain unfilled, the club can easily attract visitors to fill those gaps.
采取拒绝官方在线商店和场馆餐饮供应的策略已成为一种明显的抗议方式(许多球迷已先行一步),然而,这种行动也将影响到一般职员和临时工作人员。高呼反对格雷泽家族的口号,悬挂抗议标语无疑向全球展示了这一遥远家族的普遍反感,但或许难以真正触动他们遥远的灵魂。他们或许会宣称在转会市场上投入了巨额资金(尽管运用有误),但这些资金并非出自他们个人的腰包,而是源自众多球迷的共同努力和创造。
球迷团体、杂志、网络论坛和播客在曼联中扮演着举足轻重的角色。然而,对于独立足球监管机构(IFR)就格雷泽家族是否满足“合格与适宜的经营者”这一标准提出质疑,是否能够带来实质性的改变,这仍然是一个值得探讨的问题。显然,向独立足球监管机构和政府施加压力,推动立法改革,以禁止依赖债务的杠杆收购,这一行动背后有着充分的合理性(独立足球监管机构对议会负有提供咨询意见的责任)。
英格兰体育界的标志性人物,尽管享有盛誉,却遭受巨额债务的困扰,且由一位极不受欢迎的领导者驾驭,这无疑构成了一个尴尬的局面。令人遗憾的是,如同难以根除的顽固污点,清除格雷泽家族的影响似乎将是一个漫长而艰巨的过程。
