Sir Alex seems to enjoy working under the Glazers. He isn't pushed into decisions - he takes his time and makes up his own mind on what he wants. In this respect, he is probably the luckiest manager in the Premier League. When you see teams like Chelsea and Manchester City with their owners getting involved too much with the football side of things, and ruin teams, you appreciate how lucky Manchester United actually are.
While the Glazers have been in charge, United have won 3 Premier League titles, been in 2 Champions League finals, winning one and won the F.A Cup and Carling Cup a couple of times. The Glazers clearly haven't affected this side of the club, or if they have, United should be thanking them.
They have also given Ferguson a lot to spend. £30 million on Berbatov, £18.6 million on Carrick, £17 million on Carrick, £17 million on Nani and another on Anderson. The debt is still there - you can't ignore it, but that seems to be the only problem - although a very big one.
I'm just saying, that under the Glazers, United have been playing brilliant football. OK, not thanks to them, but not getting involved in the football side as often as other owners seems to be working.
