We'll know when they're desperate when they flog the swamps naming rights.

To be honest I'm amazed they haven't done it anyway. Must be worth a fortune.
In an ideal world the swamp would be named after Citroen,Unilever,National Tyre Services
Wouldn’t you like to see those initials in 10ft high illuminated letters?
 
Loss for the last Quarter but shirt sales, tweets and facebook likes up. What a fucking joke of a club!
@Prestwich_Blue any input on the latest figures?

You just gotta laugh. WOW what a surprise that they are social media winners...haha...with only 659 million sheep in the supporting cast. Apparently the Twitter trophy looks really impressive and it has also been confirmed that there will be an open top bus parade to celebrate next month.

Not really, established stadiums have very low value in naming rights. No one calls them by the new name and you get so much hate for doing it that it's value is pretty negligible. New stadiums or ones like ours without an established name are far more valuable as it becomes the actual name. Just look at the farce up at Newcastle

They should build a new stadium down saarth.

Honestly wouldn't be surprised if the Glazers had looked into the financials of that. They literally couldn't give a shit about football or United, if they could make more money moving to China, they'd do it without thinking twice
 
Can't find anything about this on the BBC website. Is Mr Stone on holiday today or is he googling "polish a turd" ?

Generally speaking, I'd agree. But Old Trafford might be a special case, not least the news coverage. It'd go down like a cup of cold sick though, which is why they've not done it yet.

Boycott,I’d torch the fucking place ...
 
Just a guess but I’m thinking the taxes paid to US (due to being listed in the US market) were used as a way to reduce operating income in the UK. Once the tax liability in the US was reduced the income increased for purposes of UK taxes due. And probably at a higher tax rate.

But like I said, just a guess. I really have no idea how entities with foreign ownership are taxed in the UK.
 
How surprising that he BBC has been remarkably quiet about this story. It's been sidelined to the gossip column. Maybe they haven't made a loss and it's just tittle tattle?

I think it's related to "double taxation" policy, apparently there is tax relief available in the UK if tax is paid in the US - subject to HMRC's conditions. Details here if anyone fancies untangling them.
