A 2029 window and new loan papers: Stephen Howson on the end of the Glazer era

Ten uploads went out, and the Manchester United fan spent most of them on Manchester City's verdict, its appeal and its ties to the city council.

Glazer Era Is Finally OVER...

Is the Glazer era really over? Stephen Howson put the question in his week's most watched title, "Glazer Era Is Finally OVER...", and the answer inside is more careful than the capitals suggest. Working from new loan documents, he walks through United's debt covenants, INEOS's position and a 2029 window he sees as the possible turning point, with New Old Trafford sitting in the middle of the sums. It drew about 220,000 views, and its comment section is full of supporters who have heard this before: many say they will believe it when the takeover is signed, and a few worry the stadium plan could keep the owners in place for longer.

The rest of the week belonged mostly to the blue half of Manchester. Howson followed the Premier League's findings against Manchester City from several angles: the appeal, the punishments reported in the press, the Football Leaks founder Rui Pinto, and a 2015 land arrangement between the city council and City's owners that he lays out with a long list of newspaper sources. A Cristiano Ronaldo piece on Portugal winning without him made a detour.

The freshest uploads are the quickest. A day-old video on the Super League's return and another giving Michael Carrick "one month" to save his job are both moving fast, the second built on a run of fixtures that starts with Tottenham and Atlético Madrid.

Views ran a little above the channel's usual pace, and about a thousand new subscribers took it to 323,000. Among the football channels nearest its size, that was the third-biggest week for views, with GOAL's FanZone well clear and SBS Sport far above its own norm.
