Trial by social media seems far more detrimental to a playing career than actually being tried and acquitted of a crime.

social media influencers of the world, unite and take over.

Serves him right for being thick enough to get involved with them. When the money dried up, they came back and rinsed him properly.

Did United's doctor call bullshit on the claim that he fixed her loose breast implant for her? Sounds implausible.

Not sure. You could try ringing their switchboard and asking to be put through to the relevant department…

The bombshell today is that one of the 2 "new" victims reported it to the police in May 2022.

Which means that United sunk about €150m into a guy they knew was accused of rape and sexual assault, or they're so dumb they didn't do a basic background check.

Also, it's increidbly hard to imagine Eric ten Hag didn't know about this, which means he knowingly recruited him despite the serious allegations, which IMO if confirmed would make his position at the club untenable, let alone combining that with his support for Greenwood's reintegration, his outing of Sancho's mental health issues and his support for Overmars and Promes before taking the job.

Anthony is finished as a footballer in the PL as far as I can see and it's another heavy blow to their finances.

The key term in this article is further chaos and disruption. That implies they have already caused chaos and disruption. I maybe missing something here but I don't recall any chaos and disruption already happening.

Maybe MUST should start levelling some of the blame at Eric Ten Wanks, who clearly operates the same scouting network as Howard Kendall.ie He can only sign players who have played under him previously.

Ooh! I can’t imagine the absolute terror the Glazers must be feeling right now. The zebra pants and yellow and green scarves will be out in force - the horror and inhumanity of it all!
I guess they’ll just count their money and chortle instead.
Do we have a ‘Save Our Glazers Thread?

Who dreamed, thirty years ago, that we would live to see this day?
It can only be bettered by the Rags getting relegated.
What was once invulnerable is now utterly fucked.
All empires crumble, given time and chance,
In this case, down to a quibble over horse spunk.
You could not write it.

And you try and tell the young people of today that, and they won't believe you.
 
The club is literally falling apart........its just fantastic....

Where did it all go wrong for them....does anybody care???


Piss can jumped when he was in a sober enough moment to realise what the "noisy neighbours" were assembling..... he knew the race was run.... and legged it (up into the stands where he still oversees things).
although for me.......he started the demise....

Their strategy for the last 10 years or so was totally flawed...

And ironically FFP, whilst it shouldn't have, actually worked against them, due to their flawed approach... of going for marquee signings with shit sell on value.


For me, it started going off the rails with the Van Persie purchase... that was a desperation signing of a player coming to the end of his career, with little sell on value...a real short term investment, which some can argue worked as they won the league that season......but, they've never won it since....


...and lets be honest, without referee assistance they'd be struggling even more than they already are this season.......so this won't be the year either......


They went down the route of marquee signings, already established "media superstars" and in theory established players paying top dollar..and some... who were already at, or past their top potential....to build the global brand....

Mata
Fellaini
Pogba
Falcao
Ibrahomovic
Ronaldo again
Cavani
Lukaku
etc
etc

where is the development in any of those players.....and the sell on value??
in short, they were doing exactly what Pisscan had started towards the end, which was to try and quick fix it, through pure desperation.....as the Blue Moon not only rose, but went stratospheric.....


and now....they appear to have zero control whatsoever over their players, the HR department at the club must be in Overdrive.......

The arrogance of "United" is finally cracking (to everybody else other than them).... and clubs probably go to the swamp fully expecting to come away with a result.....

In a way, I almost feel sorry for them....

edit: Do I fuck, the arrogant cunts deserve all of the pain they get...they are totally fucked, and there is not going to be a quick resolution...they've tried that and failed...miserably....and I for one, am rather happy about it.
 
If any other club in the Prem -apart from the dippers- was going through all this I might have a small amount of pity for them. There are a couple of other clubs that would just make me think, "fuck 'em. I don't care," if it happened to them. But this is happening to the rags: one of the two most obnoxious clubs in the land...and I am loving every single second of their suffering and their humiliation.

Karma is a widely-used word, but in this case it is the most appropriate word.
