United Thread - 2022/23

[big gaz]

It's like they are just making things up as they go along. Like there is no long term strategy, no forward planning. It's as if they wake up to the tabloids saying us or the Chavs are about to sign someone for £50 million so they have to go out and spend £75 million on some yesteryear household name just to remain in the headlines. Regardless of whether the particular player is right for them, regardless of whether he's fit enough to go through a pretty gruelling Premier league season or not.

This is a club lacking direction, a club lacking a cohesive plan for the next decade or so. A club so petrified of being left behind they panic-buy any 35+ player who once had an illustrious past for absolute megabucks and cross their fingers and hope it all works.

When you post on this forum it makes my day :-)

Please say its OK to laugh.

I'd say it's obligatory.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Martial is injured, hamstring.
Now, we are not allowed to laugh at injuries but come on. Wantawayron isn't match fit so they have 2 strikers, Sancho and thingy, the fish finger bloke that's it. Oh and Elanga.

Please say its OK to laugh.

Fish finger bloke ? How childish.
It’s St Marcus of Findus to you matey boy :-)

Haha Teamviewer bailing out of the commercial graveyard. Awareness up apparently but their share value has taken a hammering.

Shit on the pitch and shit off the pitch…siuuuu.

[NorthamptonBlue]

After all this time, I’m a bit surprised that their angst is so satisfying. But it is :)

 

[journolud]

Have they signed him yet ?

Wesley Sneidjer? He’s holding out for Chelsea

Bloody hell ! I thought you were kidding. First the guy who signed on behalf of Chevrolet, now Teamviewer, it's a curse sponsoring that shitshow these days ! Hilarious !

Forrest are after a Dutch striker from Willem II. His name immediately made me think of the rags production line of "talent" it's Jizz Hornkamp ;-)))))))))

Bet he’s got a tackle on him.

I had to think as I didn't have a clue what you were on about and then it clicked. They are the shirt sponsors. That's working well for the company, they are sponsoring and paying millions and no one remembers them.

Lol lost 4/5ths of their companies value since sponsoring the rags

That is huge. They are contracted for 4 more years, no way, they're going bump. 4/5ths of your value list but still having to fork out 47 million each year until 2026.

They earnt 500m euros in 2021. And then spent almost 10% of that revenue (not profit!) on sponsoring them.

Whomever negotiated that from teamviewers point of view, needs to be tarred and feathered - and be banned from every company anywhere.

From the United point of view, their supporters should be lighting candles of thanks that they managed to get that money.

I said this on here at the time. Their net profit (£40m) didn't cover the annual sponsorship of £47m. Not surprised their investors are furious. I don't know what on earth they were thinking.

 

[RadcliffeRick]

I guess most like minded football fans deleted this program and refused to use it once they started the sponsorship. I know I did, much to the angst of our it department

Sometimes you just have to do what's right. Sir, I commend you.

 

[hertsblue]

Gem from the Mirror.

Manchester United are set to walk away from a bidding war with Chelsea for the signature of Barcelona and Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong, 25.

hahahaha, really. A player who has repeatably said he will not sign for them but yeah, lets pretend it’s the Rags who are walking away

 

[I'm With Stupid]

If Man Utd was a bloke on Tinder...
