A bloke that is so unprofessional that he goes on the lash for 2 days making himself unfit to play is no role model, that is the real Rashford not someone with a brilliant media team feeding the starving

Yep. 100%. That's all it was: a PR stunt, as phoney as you can get. Players from other clubs -pro/amateur- do a great deal more than Rashford does for charities but they don't get the rag-loving media to hype it up all the time.
My local non-league club do all sorts of things in order to raise money for different charities: abseiling, bungee jumping, having their heads shaved, etc, but not even the local paper mentions it: it's just featured in the match day programme.
Not just sports, either. Celebrities everywhere earn money for charities but we don't get to hear about half the time, so why does Rashford get all this publicity - it couldn't possibly be because of the club he plays for, could it?

They’re still touting for this new 2billion stadium build but no mention who will be paying for it.

Anyone but Ratcliffe.

He's recruited Coe, Neville and Burnham to spin his bullshit. Burnham spouting about how the area needs transformation and some public cash. He was ready to defend Everton against their charges from the PL but has said nothing in defence of City. He's just a Champagne swilling millionaire so called socialist..

The Labour Party isn’t very socialist nowadays.

Seb Coe should do one, sticking his nose in where it isn’t wanted. Fuck off back to where you came from and get them to build it you utter knob jocky.

Maybe he should form a committee to regenerate Hillsborough and Brammall Lane.

As you and others elsewhere in this thread have pointed out, I'm looking forward to a whole host of 'Wembleys Of..' being built in order to kick-start our ailing UK economy.

As I've been saying since last year when the development of The Swamp was first mooted, I for one would gladly hand over my hard-earned moolah (not!) to fund a trip around the country to marvel at 'The Wembley of Stretford', 'The Wembley of Cleethorpes', 'The Wembley of Carlisle', 'The Wembley of Stirling', 'The Wembley of Plymouth', 'The Wembley of Derry' and so on and so on.. let alone the contribution I'd gladly make (not, again!) via my taxes for the initial building costs of this worthy project to 'level up' our regions!

But seriously.. if Starmer et al go any-fucking-where near this absolute waste of public funds, I'll be writing to him personally to explain why, after more than 50 years as a member of the Labour Party, I'll be handing in my resignation.

For it even to be discussed thus far is an absolute disgrace. At the moment of raising this, Ratcliffe should've been told to fuck off back to Manchester and get the Glazers to stump up the cash for the repair of The Swamp from the £2bn+ they've trousered from the club over the past two decades.

Those involved in this travesty ought to be ashamed of themselves..
