The Red Knights' dreams of rescuing Manchester United from the grips of the Glazer family have come to a dead end.
It was expected the Red Knights group would launch a formal bid for the Old Trafford outfit at some point before the World Cup.
However, the Glazer family last week stated they had no intention of selling the club and previous claims the American owners had rejected a £1.5billion bid from a Far East consortium already seem to have led to a belief amongst the Red Knights that there is little point making a substantially lower offer that was also certain to be rejected.
Hate people making business the american way with football. It should have been unlegal. Football combines with business from the heart, not the wallet.
