Carrick and Kieran McKenna (who?) run the coaching. Not sure what Mike Phelan does and John Murtough (who?) is Director of Football. It is a complete shit show. I have been told by someone who knows that this problem is wider than just the football department. A lot of people in key areas across the club are not experienced enough in their fields. The disastrous recruitment policy is not just confined to the players.
Ed Woodward was an accountant and investment banker with no expertise in the sports industry. The Glazers have got no idea what they are doing. Happy days!

Heard a rumour that Murtough was a blue in his youth. Used to live in Burnage

What's the betting on that bloke who has just been rescued from a cave being trotted out at the swamp in his Rag shirt in the not too distant future?

That reminds me: didn't those lads in Thailand who got rescued in a flooded cave (they were a junior football team) get a trip to Old Trafford when they had recovered....?





















But at half-time they asked if they could go back under the ground.

I get what your saying but honestly footballers are damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
If he wasn’t helping millions we would be calling him a greedy footballer, but now he is helping millions now we call him a PR machine.

despite being a United player I always found him a decent lad, talks allot of sense and comes across as likeable.
obviously I want him to fail on the pitch but let’s not knock charitable acts off the pitch.

I’d rather he just paid his taxes to be honest…,

Not sure if it's a direct consequence of Rashfords campaign, but I heard on the radio this week there was a Minister For Child Poverty. In one of the richest countries in the world that is a disgrace. Sorry if slightly off topic

There is no minister for child poverty but there is a minister for children.

Labour appointed a shadow minister for child poverty a few months ago on the back of some populist PR campaign. Can’t quite work out why they would do this…
 
De Bruyne's comments about the City's derby preparation are making waves. They seem incendiary and disrespectful. In reality, though, they illustrate that United play a simple game tactically, just as any mid table team would.
 
Did you read about the MP who was caught in a seedy hotel wearing stockings and suspenders and a United shirt whilst in bed with a rent boy.

He asked for the bit about the United shirt to be kept out of the papers to save his family from the embarrassment

I didn't know Pogba was linked to City. How many's that now ? How many players we were supposedly going for that United then broke the bank for and which turned out to be shite???

Sanchez
Fred
Ronaldo
Pogba
Maguire

Its too many times now for it to be coincidence.

One thing I really enjoyed on Saturday was watching the shite trying to play out from the back.Wank Pissarsehole
and Billy Bunter were immediately forced back towards the corner flags and then blammed it upfield.
Just let Duncan Donut blam it.Save a lot of messing about that would.

Sounds as though you've been looking at Ole's book of tactics.

This piece has done some looking at Marcus Rashford’s PR company. It’s a good read. I don’t agree with all its conclusions - and the writer may not care much for football -, but it prods where the mainstream media are reluctant to press.

I don’t begrudge Rashford’s right to lobby for any cause he chooses. But we’re not obliged to take anything at face value.
