City figures supporting the Red Knights who are preparing a bid for Manchester United are discovering that it may not be a free ride. The Glazer family are considering ending their relationship with Goldman Sachs. The company’s chief economist, Jim O’Neill (who is said to have invented the term ‘Bric economics’), is a key member of the Red Knights group. The bank has argued that Mr O’Neill’s views are personal ones, but this has not satisfied the Glazers.
