Manchester United co-owner Avram Glazer refused to apologise over their proposals for the European Super League when approached by a reporter earlier today.
Avram Glazer said: “We got it wrong, and we want to show that we can put things right. In seeking to create a more stable foundation for the game, we failed to show enough respect for its deep-rooted traditions – promotion, relegation, the pyramid – and for that we are sorry.”
However, when Joel’s brother, Avram, was approached for comment, the co-owner ignored suggestions that he could offer his apologies for the Super League plan.
The reporter asked: “This an opportunity for you – an apology perhaps?”
Whilst being asked if it was time for his family to sell the club and if United fans were “just customers to you”. However, Avram Glazer ignored the questions and drove away from the reporters after buying some finishing his shopping. Joel Glazer was central to plans for United to join the breakaway Super League competition but the club eventually pulled out after mass pressure from supporters. The club then released a statement where Joel Glazer apologised to fans for the proposal after it collapsed within 48 hours.
