How (long) will Ten Hag last at United? / Save Poundland Pep Part 2

[heslops barnet]

Because they’ve owned the club for two decades during which time they’ve hugely declined as a footballing force. On their watch. The cunts are fucking clueless.

is the ownership the same as the managerial recruitment team?

oh they will have replaced ETH as manager by then, then?

Haha! Edited and thanks!

Over a decade, ultimately, yes.

As ten bob once said: All eras come to an end.
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas will be Santa time for ten bob for he too will get the sack.
Then of course nytid will go out and get the bestest, newest, forward thinking, most exciting young coach in the world.
The dippers will be furious when Uncle Woy leaves Palace to go to their hated rivals at the swamp.

That's a lot to do with other clubs having similar money to spend. That's the real reason they're not a force anymore.


Back when they were a force, they could outspend every other team. They spent about £30m on Ferdinand, what other Premier League could spend £30m on a defender near the turn of the millennium?

Andy Cole was the best goalscorer in the league at one point, playing for their nearest competitors...but United had the dough to buy him half way through a season. That would be pretty much unheard of today but they had more money than the rest to make it happen.

United still spend crazy money, but now they're not the only ones who can. That's the big difference.

And it’s not fair….. it’s cheating !!!

Roy getting that job would be so sweet!

The big difference is Bacon actually bought quality players rather than the dross bought over the past decade.
I was genuinely staggered watching the game yesterday that Martial is still at the club, nevermind starting a game!

If the players had been that good, they’d have dominated Europe. They were just better than everyone else in England.

Exactly- remind me, how much did that defender Ferdinand cost all those years ago? And were there any complaints??
