One of their biggest issues is their stadium, it may be iconic (pass the sick bag) but its ageing and not fit for purpose,now to build a new one will cost many millions (and they need space) I can't see the tax payer stumping up anything to help them out (and nor should we) but that leaves them in a bind because a stadium is much more than a place to play football it serves numerous functions nowadays

As long as we don't loan them ours. The thought of those bastards on hallowed turf once a season is more than enough for me.
If they ask I hope the club says 'Fuck off!'

I don't think there's very much iconic about Old Trafford these days. Certainly not since it became all seater, and I'd say the same thing about Maine Road too. Once the terracing went, a little bit of football died for me. Sure, I still miss Maine Road like fuck but that was as much to do with the myriad of watering holes around the stadium as anything else, and drinking options around Eastlands have always been utter shite in comparison IMO. United fans probably don't want to move for similar reasons but if a new stadium were to be built in the vicinity of the old one then they could still retain the same match day routine, right down to Pete Boyle singing shite nursery rhymes down the Bishop Blaize and his mates from Tintagel, Tibet, and Tipperary all joining in.

Thats the Radcliffe play book - he closes the pension fund, reduces terms and condition, cost cuts and destroys employee morale in any firm he takes over by all accounts.

Maybe that’s why his pro cycling team has gone downhill since he took over from Sky.

He’s unwilling to pay top dollar to bring in the best in the sport. Let’s hope he follows that mantra at the swamp.

He's here to reduce the club to a minimum, use his contacts to get planning permission for whatever they do with the stadium then they'll sell it to the highest bidder and he'll be off to his next project. Sadly this is probably the right thing to do for them.

How's Knobbie Mainoo doing these days ? The clamour for him to be appointed England captain appears to have died down a bit recently.

They never learn do they , who can recall give Jsnuzai a uk passport after he got a brace at wait for it Sunderland …

The longer they keep up the new new shenanigans the better , it piled on the pressure and they soon crumble back to obscurity …

Look at Elsnga they let him go and he’s better than most of what they’ve got in a poor Forest side …long May it continue .

Unfortunately, don't think the media drooling over him has ended yet ?
Didn't the crowd at their last match boo louder over his being substituted, than at the final whistle ?
This would fit in with the current media view (as instructed by MUFC) that Ten Bob does not have a clue. So, he is unfortunately on his way out.
Mainoo, however, will go to the Euros, as Southgate would not dare leave him out ?
The lad does seem to have "time & space" and is calm.
Whether he can kick-on, remains to be seen ?

But it's all an act, he really does not give a flying FCUK for United, he does not support them, it's pretty well known even the persona of Mark Goldbridge is an act, it's not his name his name is Bret something or other you've fallen for it hook line and sinker, it's just pantomime for the hard of thinking

He has also been caught a few times using burner accounts to counterpoint his own tweets.

What can the rags offer new players apart from big wages ?

CL= No
Modern Statium = No
Modern Training facilities = No
Fighting for trophies = Not really
Squad hungry for success = No

Ah, but, a rather innovative water feature in one of their stands.
No other top club* can offer that.




* stop laughing the BBC and Sly says they are.

The kid is fairly error prone sometimes, a number of turnovers in their own half came from his naive passing. TBF, he is very young.

Unfortunately, starting every game at this age, he's gonna burn out before he even hits 23 years old, much like Rashford was. They never learn.

Yet the media had it in there heads that they where suddenly back because they qualified for the CL and wonba trophy when us in the real world could see the real picture.

A club that has sat in a false posistion for two years on the back of bent decisions honestly they shouldnt be anywhere near the top 10.
