They sacked 250 staff to make savings. Ignoring any redundancy payments, if the average pay was as high as £40k, they saved £10m in wages.
Then they sacked the manager and his staff - after giving him a vote of confidence - who'd spent £200m recently on more shite players - then appointed the new man, and the cost of this exercise was the best part of £25m.
Now, they've sacked the Director of Football they'd chased - and paid loads for - and will have had to pay up on his contract after just 5 months. That exercise - £5-10M?
The financial mismanagement is off the scale.
Then, they have the temerity to tell their unwashed hordes, "Sorry - no more concessionary ticket prices; minimum entry forthwith is £66 each."
How the fuck does scruffy Jim manage to accumulate £1B with financial acumen like this?
Maybe he's not been wearing his adding-up head just lately - someone tell him that it's the one with the red and white bucket hat on top, with the straw-hair sticking out of it
Scum.

No offence @the blue panther but your post just highlights your own lack of vision and business acumin.

To the Gordon Gecko's among us, admiring the sheer audacity and cunning strategic manoeuvre's being made over at The Worlds Biggest ClubTM, is nothing short of an inspiration.

We as a club have a lot to learn from those swarve business leaders...............

I’m not so sure Scruffy Jim is in it for the long haul. He’s making snap decisions cos he thinks he knows best. Classic case of trying to bring his business nous into football and thinking it’s business as usual. He can try and bully other chemical operators and achieve success in that field but he’s now competing against other billionaire owners with United and can’t employ same tactics. Glazers have also stitched him up with a deal that was all on their terms.

Outside chemicals, he’s making a lot of strange business decisions and losing hundreds of millions. None of his sports ventures have been successful. He’s also spent £600 million on developing the next Land Rover, only for the new Defender to be launched which outsells the Ineos Grenadier 200 to 1. Genius move.
