How surprising that he BBC has been remarkably quiet about this story. It's been sidelined to the gossip column. Maybe they haven't made a loss and it's just tittle tattle?

This. Every time they make a profit its headline news but not a whiff about this loss on the site but we all know thier bias towards all things utd

I would think it's a 'cooking the books' exercise to pay less tax overall.
Do you pay any corporation tax if you've lost money?
Isn't the tax based on profit?
I think most international companies have ways and means to be more 'tax efficient'!

And as Ed WoodWood has said "Our solid business model has allowed us to invest in the future of the Club with the extension of Jose Mourinho's contract as manager and the acquisition of Alexis Sanchez. We look forward to the remainder of the season with confidence," said Ed Woodward, Executive Vice Chairman of Manchester United.

So everything is all fine and dandy, arf!

We'll know when they're desperate when they flog the swamps naming rights.

To be honest I'm amazed they haven't done it anyway. Must be worth a fortune.

If they sell to the highest bidder, I don't think it is beyond the realms of possibility for the team to either:

1. run out from under the "Golden Arches" or;
2. have the ball delivered to the centre-circle by a sky-diving Mickey Mouse

Fans would be so opposed to changing the name of the swamp that thousands would threaten to leave and form their own new club.

They wouldn't need to get rid of the old name, they could just call it the The Intu debt Old Trafford Centre.

Can't find anything about this on the BBC website. Is Mr Stone on holiday today or is he googling "polish a turd" ?

He did a thread on twitter about their financial results without mentioning anything about the profit/loss. No article anywhere on the BBC website about it either. Anyone really surprised?

They’ve got the most social media followers and sold a few Sanchez shirts, doesn’t hide the fact they’ve spent shit loads of money to be 13 points off the pace in February and only the realistic trophy the have of winning is the fa cup.

What utter joy.

Chief Executive believes spunking millions on a star player touching 30, and extending Mr Shitty Spiteful’s contract, is investing in the future.
