Good to know Nike are consistent when it comes to shit kits.

cynic.

Nike also only paid 1 mill in tax on selling over £100 mill rag shirts. Wonder if they did the same with us.

The company funnelled nearly £40m over the period to its Dutch business despite making most of its money on sales to football fans in the UK, according to accounts filed with Companies House.

Google "behind the swoosh" for the truth behind the business. It is alleged that the average worker, sewing 100 England football shirts in an hour, earns thirty pence. Bear in mind that £9,000 of income will be generated by that number of shirts.

tbh I think Herrera has the potential to be a revelation for them. Maybe a poor man's Silva but he adds that extra option like what Milner does for us. A reliable workhorse.

Who's that Chinese child next to the granny shagger??

Was it a competition he won ??

That's Kagawa.

And he's Japanese!

They really should be pushing for 1st by the half way point with their fixtures and no European footy. Which wouldn't worry me too much as it gets harder for them after that.

Their run-in is hard but if City, Chelsea and/or Arsenal are still in the Champions League by then, United with 100% energy levels like Liverpool last season could have an advantage.

I keep seeing people mentioning the share price, it doesn't matter to the Glazers what happens to the share price in the slightest. It only matters if they want to sell more shares.

Shares in the club are divided into two groups, with Class A shares sold to the public and Class B shares retained by the Glazer family. Holders of class A shares would not be entitled to a regular dividend, and the structure of the share issue meant that the Glazers' class B shares had 10 times the voting power of class A shares, essentially denying a controlling interest in the club to anyone but the Glazers.

They have had their cake and they have also eaten it, forget the share price. It only represents less than two percent of the club.
