United Thread - 2023/24

Ten Hag has a weird habit of doing the wrong thing with these kind of things.

Marc Overmars got kicked out of Ajax for sexually harassing female employees and ten Hag backed him 100%.

Quincy Promes got arrested for attempted murder and drug smuggling and ten Hag backed him 100% and kept playing him even as damning evidence came out.

Antony's girlfriend has reported him to the police in Brazil where he's getting investigated for domestic abuse while he was at Ajax and United with ten Hag.

Now he wants to rehabilite Mason Greenwood after his girlfriend released audio of him raping her.

Yep he won’t be questioned about it at all

This club has given us so many laughs for 10 years surely they deserve award for this, they are better than Ant & Dec.

Colin - I assume the depreciation on the capex is added back when considering FFP profit?

Yes, once it's capitalised in the balance sheet.

No wonder over 50% of the thousands hundreds tens are hiding their faces behind banners.

I can see the Glazers quakering laughing at this level of protest

Ahh, is that why they refuse to mend the roof or get a new stadium?

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

Really, the money they are siphoning out of the swamp, would have all 5 dragons fighting over a piece of the action if they could tag onto the Glazer model.

'What are you going to do with my 250K?'
"Err, mend the roof?"

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

This is what happened.
(Always a good excuse to show it again)

A great day, followed by a great night in the Fletchers.

That pass from Buzzer reminded me a bit of Silva to Dzecko in terms of where it happened and the way it split the opposition to put him in acres.

Are you on a train passing through Chernobyl?

Nature now thrives in Chernobyl…nothing grows in this wasteland!

Reading quite a lot recently about the status of this dump of a club. What really irks me is, this is the first time ever, that a club, as it has been presented of this size, has ever been linked with the red line of the Financial Fair Play regulations.

Now whether these are FA's or UEFA's rule structures this cannot just be a "whoops" we just got here situation. Something is absolutely stinking about that club financially, and the fact is, that from the latest news, debt is at 750 million, with 350 million still to go out in transfers from previous years. And in the last 5 years they have spent 500 million pounds in transfers but sold for 60 million.

How in the world, have these lot not been failing FFP for a while now, if they have't won anything of value in the last 10 years, red lined themselves year after year, and yet spent over a billion and a half.

Please someone with a bit more technical knowledge explain it to me. Because it really stinks to high heaven.
