United thread 2020/21

What was the attack?
They keep saying it was a cyber attack but why and what?
Customer database? Scouting? fitness & health logs? Finacial system? Logistical systems?

Very vague, reminds me of the bomb scare that time that turned out to be a bit of old piping

It'd be lovely if it was on the Delaware accounts that are kept in a deep dark vault and the 'money pot' was now in the public domain.

Spot the anomaly ...

That was not when we were cyberattacked. That was when former employees used someone elses details to go back on our system.

We didn't announce that either, it was briefly reported we had consulted some security experts, but it wasn't until years and years later anyone knew, and even longer after that the Times reported on it.

The first we heard of the cyberattack on City was when der Spiegel printed their big stories.

The way that Pinto got in (according to the court papers) was by impersonating an email (phishing) from a UEFA official to one of our managers which apparently then opened the door to all our emails. It doesn't sound that complex. I hope we have tightened things up.

Not sure why somebody would hack their computers to find evidence of wrongdoing. It's all been swept under the carpet at Premier League HQ.

No way Liverpool would try anything as they're best buds now. No way any other team would try anything as they're not disgusting shits like Liverpool.

Wouldn't be Der Spiegel (or similar) as they'd have had someone be more subtle like how Pinto was.


I'd assume it's a bunch of rogues trying to make a quick penny. That or somebody got really pissed off by Rashford.

they are getting their excuses in early for the defeat, today.

Serves them right for having an easy password.

According to Deloony it's been traced backed to Abu Dhabi...

They actually have another one. Simple enough to remember, the username is "Howson" and the password is "MAWBC".

Pretty certain Simon Mullock knew very early and hinted at such on Twitter.
