Thanks, what a roll call that is. Ratcliffe has made an obvious attempt to put a structure in place on the sporting side with unknown credentials. The problem is, it is totally underpinned by the manager and players and how they perform. With the backing in the recent transfer window they seem to be on side with ten hag. It really could unravel though if results nosedive. If he gets the bullet, it's back to square one with a different manager and a mish mash of players.

I predicted Ten Hag would last Ten Games at the beginning of the season, 3 down 7 to go.

Ineos might think they can ride the shot storm from the media but they are so naive. Utd constantly get the media spotlight (Twats) but this is the flip side of that spotlight and its causing them so many issues.

Their fans demand results, their media pander to the fans, the media demand results. Utd will never have the time to find the right manager.

We could be watching the death of that club......Their fans already have half the mindset of accepting an FA cup win as success (Knowing that they can never win the PL). Being top 4 is now the target. The club have spent so much money that they cannot spend much more and will have to go the way Barca have. The rest of the football world is leaving them behind (Brighton, Newcastle, Spurs, even Brentford are run and managed better - Its accepted fact). But most of all the fans and the media (Their media) are so angry they want them to fail, there's an appetite for them to fail badly just to prove they are right that the Glazers are poison for the club.

In a perfect storm they could get relegated. Especially if they stick with this manager until breaking point, then knee jerk manager appointment that doesn't go well and then downward spiral. I would love it.

He'll bridle at some of these responses so we should just rein it in.

Don't worry; he'll need to learn how to handle large quantities of Manure

They`ve got a lot to learn cheeky.

But but but this is Manchschester Uuuuunited we are talking about.

I doubt I will live long enough but would love to see the cunts relegated or at least a relegation battle!!

They have an annoying habit of digging out results getting bailed out by helpful refereeing when their backs are against the wall. If they don’t take 6 points vs Soton and Palace things could get quite interesting!!

Scum!!

Edited for accuracy

Funnily enough - the more they boo'ed their own - Rashford - the better he played - put in some excellent crosses and passes as the boos rained down.
Maybe that's the answer for them - keep booing him.

He likes getting on the boos, does our Marcus

Fuck international football. Wanted the cunts to get beat again this weekend. Need my fix.

Watch Wales at home to Turkey instead. You can stream it for free on S4C with iPlayer.

You can imagine it.

Hi, I’m the D.O.N & I negotiated £350k per week for Rashford & Sancho…..
