Part of the 250 Job cuts story was this:
In addition, United have just committed £50m to the development of its Carrington training ground, which in the short term has led to the women’s team vacating the new facility constructed for them so it can be used by Erik ten Hag’s squad.

Note the complete lack of uproar by those in the woman's game about their womens team being booted out of their own training ground

It’s fucking disgraceful, isn’t it?

That the women have been turfed out of their training facilities, I mean.

Sacking 250 staff will save them money however much it is.
My guess they are
Since Scruffy arrived they have employed Neville, Brailsford, Seb Coe and several others. Are they all working for free ?
Are they bollocks. There renumeration will far exceed the money saved on sacking staff.

 

[JASR]

I wonder if one of the 25% people being let go, includes a certain ex-manager on a very large retainer…

Iirc someone said he gets north of £1m a year, that’s a yearly minimum+ wage for serious amounts of staff

Surely Scruffy will do the decent thing (ha!)

The Mason Greenwood effect? Make the ladies team so low-key for a couple of seasons and dare anybody moan about Greenwood playing again for United will be shown the door

 

[ancoats]

Bobby Charlton tickets will be made available to the fans, all 500 of them

That’s a possible theory.

Of course it is. And we all know we’d be crucified if we did this!

No different to booting injured players and families of players who have just passed away whilst on a club trip out of their homes.....

New back 3?

Ha ha.
Sky sports news don't even bother hiding it anymore.

I'm sure we'll find out that De Ligt was born in a utd kit and another lifelong fan.

But I think he's the 21st player linked with the bullshitters.

Born on the counter in Lou Macari chippy.

Does anyone know how much the Snapdragon shirt sponsorship deal is worth to the Rags?

I billion Dogecoin...

Scruffy Jim told all the staff they had to go back to work in the office.

They said there’s not enough desk space.

Scruffy Jim sacks 250 staff.

Jim’ll fix it.
