Rag shirt on obviously.

Hopefully it's not Giggs

The rags state they are going to write!!! (Email ?) 500,000 rag fans to ask them their preference regarding rebuilt swamp or new swamp.

Yeh of course they have 500,000 email address. Biggest and best in the world... at bullshitting.

I bet they have, and so do we now too. A simple google told me both of us have more than 50 million facebook followers, never mind that extrapolated 1.1 billion number of people on the planet who they say follow them - I think they got there by extrapolated up from a poll of about 50,000 people in China

The results will show that the worldwide fanbase agree to just fix the roof unless the UK government want to give trafford rovers a 2 billion quid freebie.

You know I’m not one to have a knee-jerk reaction, but it’s getting a bit serious now. When any company appoints Foster + Partners to design their proposal, you have to take the intent seriously.

Not only that, but the good PR continues. Norman Foster was born in Manchester and has always wanted to design an iconic building in Manchester/Trafford. ;-)

World-renowned global architecture studio, Foster + Partners, is set to be appointed by Manchester United to develop a masterplan for the Old Trafford Stadium District, covering the Club-owned land that surrounds the existing stadium

I didn't think for a minute that they weren't serious, I just hope they don't get ANY public funds, the Glazers are experts at spending other people's money.

Points off for the use of the "vibrant" cliche in the article

The "Biggest Club in the World" in a Company registered in the Cayman Islands or wherever to avoid tax, run by a billionaire non-dom (to avoid tax) will no doubt be seen as a deserving cause to benefit from a huge handout of taxpayers money.

The cheek of the Bastards to even suggest it, and the pathetic nature of the British Press to even entertain this without calling it out for the utter bollocks that it is just because of who it is.

He designed the new dome on the Reichstag in Berlin, and it’s brilliant.
