As the knights go marching in.

The Red Knights prepare themselves for a takeover of the board at Manchester United.

And garnering wholesome support from fans, incuding some mega rich ones, Man Utd might be set for a take by the group, mysteriously called the Red Knights.

Whether or not the Red Knights are supported, they sure hold water in many of the claims they have made so far. An established economist, a few investment bankers, rich businessmen, the Red Knights look like an organized consortium ready to wrest control from the Glazer family.

Ask me for an opinion? Who cares so long as Man Utd continues to win matches. I just hope these rumors and unsettling news do not put the season's plans i.e to win everything into jeopardy. Not that in any scenario Man Utd will be less off, but I expect Man Utd to be just as competitive in the transfer market in year 2011 whomever is sitting in the boardroom.

Take note though. The Red Knights might just pull off what I think is the biggest supporter coup in footballing history. And trust me, the global fanbase of Man Utd is capable of anything.
