Heard a rag fan refer to their manager as Only Going So Far which sums him up
Ole’s a limited manager that’s doing a job with his hands tied at the moment. Surely it has to be primarily Woodward’s fault in terms of recruitment, as he really doesn’t have a clue but wants to be involved! Their weaknesses are glaringly obvious and have been for some time but they haven’t brought in the players to rectify the issues, hence a bit of leniency going Ole’s way.
Suspension of fans returning to stadiums has put the final nail in the Sancho deal IMO.It’s weird you listen to some pundits and people in the media talking about it’s only an extra 20m they should just pay it for Sancho it’s like the scum have got that money now.
Their Matchday revenue is 110m, so glad we play in at the Emptihad ;)

The Glazers are on the brink financially. United had to borrow money in March (before Covid kicked in) just to pay wages. The club is in a terrible state. The bad news is that this will probably lead to a takeover bid before Christmas. And my money is on the Newcastle Saudi group coming back in for United. You can be sure the PL will smooth their pathway not block them like last time.Suspension of fans returning to stadiums has put the final nail in the Sancho deal IMO.

This is mostly speculation for my part but I just have a gut feeling. The financial crisis has been well documented and reported by United fan blogs. The media coverage of the Sancho saga is probably just fake news, perhaps a smokescreen put out by the Rags PR.
It's a great time to be a City or Liverpool fan when you look at the financial situations at United, Real Madrid, and Barcelona..the self-claimed biggest clubs in the world. It's a huge news story but don't expect any of the biased UK football media to cover it.

Does anyone know when the rags' next lot of financials are due out?
I'm guessing they should make cheerful reading.

Yes, I can't see the PL not rewinding the "fit and proper" test if the same Saudi's (or even slightly different) come back and go for United.The bad news is that this will probably lead to a takeover bid before Christmas.

By that point they will be on the point of collapse, unless bought out, and there's no way the PL will let it get as far as United going into administration (too many EFL clubs to mention) or even disolved (Bury). Even though it would be the best thing for the league (long term) to act evenhandedly and show no favouritism (yes, I had serious difficulty writing that last line, without sniggering)
