This is true. The Glazers are a gift to us and the rest of the PL. They have taken a club that had circa 2x the financial power of it's nearest rival and 10x the power of smaller PL clubs and lumbered it with debt, sucked cash out to pay their own fee's and then made terrible decisions with the investments they have made. Practically any other club would have gone bust under that style of ownership. One of the only reasons they have got away with it is the managers they have appointed have been so useless and have failed in such a dramatic way that it masks the failings in the overall strategy. That and the odd tin pot victory and general spineless fan base. It truly is a perfect storm.

Some good points in there, but I won"t be happy until they"re relegated.

I think he'll make it to February.

8th

8th

It won’t be the 6th.

Nothing should overshadow the day Frank Swift died.

Could be on the brink after a defeat to Leicester at home

I doubt it.

I think he’ll have at least until the Newcastle game.

He hasn’t enrolled him for half term at the Bryan Robson soccer school?

No, but Ole did manage to get him admission to the Dave Wilson School.

I was there when Denis helped them on their way through the relegation door - what a happy day.
Just had to wear a miserable face while leaving the ground to prevent getting a beating from the neanderthals masquerading as fans.

The fuckers have been trying to out spend other premier league club by 2:1

The problem they've got is that as a going concern they're finished.
They could spend £150M on marquee players and still not qualify for the Europa league.

Historically the rags were the type of club that could draw players from far and wide. Now they have to pay well over the asking price. Look at the Sanchez debacle and the money they spunked on the show pony.

Just stop for one minute and reflect on the catastrophe of that business deal.... Sanchez £500.000 per week for a player who didn't even want to be there and the rags are still paying a percentage of his wages now he's done one. Pogshite £90M for a player they let go on a free in the first place.

£700M Ocean Finance loan. The club might create a significant annual turnover but the money men at that place couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

Their whole player acquisition process in the last 5 years has been a shambles. I’d love to know how much they’ve spunked in agent fees, poor signings and bonkers wages. Fred, Sanchez, Lukaku, Pogba must be a few hundred million between them and between them they’ve made virtually no sustainable contribution to the team.

Sorry but I genuinely can't tell if you were joking or if you actually thought they can't afford to spend money.

United are the biggest financial behemoth in world football. If they were run by people who weren't interested in maximising their personal profit from the club, the rest of the premier league would be getting outspent 2:1 every single window.

Accepted.you outlined why they cannot spend 300 million yourself, and there are several other reasons to add. But I now bow to your superior knowledge of Mufc.

You've made me jealous, lol.
