They are certainly one of the most skint clubs in the universe according to Swiss Ramble
here
The Rags' total liabilities (all debt including unpaid transfer fees, taxes, staffing etc) is now £1.22bn, second worldwide only to Spurs (who have the new stadium excuse). This was posted on September 28 but has had virtually no coverage. I wonder why.
They are in even worse shape financially than Real Madrid and Barcelona. This does not include fears that the Glazers' US empire is on the brink of collapse and according to rumours in the USA they are trying to sell the club to the Saudis or Russians.
And yet today Simon Stone produces this absurd article for the BBC

I knew Stone was incompetent but is he really incapable of using Google to find out why United are not signing players. Even the United fans are fed up with his propaganda.
