Man Utd owner has second stroke

[ballistic]

Manchester United owner Malcolm Glazer has suffered a second stroke and been re-admitted to hospital, BBC Radio Five Live reports.

Glazer's condition is not said to be life threatening but he is expected to remain under medical supervision until at least the end of the month.

The American, 77, has been in hospital for most of the last six weeks after suffering a first stroke on 16 April.

His son, Joel, said Glazer is expected to be released in the next few weeks.

Glazer, who is being treated at Florida's Cleveland Clinic, is finding difficulty with speech and movement on his right side.

Joel Glazer, the family's key player at Old Trafford, said his father's recovery would take longer and be more challenging than had originally been thought.

A spokesman for the family insisted that the running of Manchester United was unaffected.

Glazer bought the club for £790m last summer.

hope he's ok

If he dies, Manchester United die.

His sons will ruin Old Trafford.

I dont know the guy but I hope he pulls through.

his sons already handle day to day running of the club and he doesnt really do much atm.

wonder how long uncle malcolms got left in him.

Malcom doesn't do much for the club, just provides the backing, his sons run it already.

Some of the stuff said on some MU forums after his first were just sick, I dislike the bloke intensly, but I don't wish some of the things they do on him. I hope he recovers.

Well said.

I think you'll find most fans in a similar situation would be saying the same sick things, not just us 'typical' Mancs. Although if you are talking about the FC brigade then I agree, I can't stand their holier than thou attitude to fellow Utd fans, the club or anything else.

His sons run the club, its their hobby.
The old feller doesnt do anything, if he carks it i doubt much will change.

True - you just have to look at the things Villa 'fans' say about Doug Ellis.

His sons have been running everything for him for a long time anyway. Infact, he's never actually been to Old Trafford yet.

Yeh he just the backer and the figure they used when taking over to show the Glazier brothers mean business and to try and calm the public.
