Glazer set to make fresh United bid
Weekend reports said Mr Glazer, who has already seen two bids turned down, has secured the backing of heavyweight merchant bank NM Rothschild but only on condition that his next move wins the support of the United board.
Mr Glazer lost the backing of his previous financial adviser, American banking giant JP Morgan, last November after he used his 28% shareholding to oust three United directors at the club's annual general meeting. Sources close to Mr Glazer were reported as saying there was "no chance" of Mr Glazer taking a hostile approach to getting control of United.
