United Thread | 2024/25

Manchester United could opt to trigger a one-year extension to 31-year-old England defender Harry Maguire's deal, which comes to an end at the end of the 2024-25 campaign, as they want to avoid him leaving for free. (Football Insider)

Wonderful for a number of reasons.
* It means another year of money wasted on wages.
* It means he could make several more appearances.
* The incomprehensible idea some club may actually want to pay a fee for him.

The Club that keeps on giving.
They just don’t get it, do they?

Clubs aren’t going to pay the fees that the rags demand for players, nor are they going to pay the salaries that they are on at the swamp.
 
its Peter Schmeichel on with Keane and Neville on this week's Stick To Football

Serious question, but at what stage do people get bored of this shite?
Any wonder United fans are still living in the 90s when this is their source of material week in week out.

It'll be Quinton Fortune next week......
Don't forget Wes Orange. :)

Ultimately their fanbase will shrink in the long-haul if they continue down this trajectory. You can only live off the past so long. They are the Blackberry of football on current trajectory.
 
It rotates, but never gets divulged. If a club appeals, it always goes to a panel.

The rest is your opinion, which you’re entitled to.

Why were the match officials and VAR officials agreeing on sending him off, Because it was a red card simple?
Nobody else gets the ban overturned when both Match officials and VAR officials are in agreement, Forget the slip it does not make any difference to the high boot and dangerous foul play with contact.

You Know matey what goes on, United have the power on the rules to bend them, It Stinks and is shocking that they see it as wrong to send him off and overturn both official's rulings,

A Panel of Ex-footballers you say... So they would know if it's United and they want a helping hand, it is better to change the outcome to keep the job on the panel

Because decisions are subjective. The ref got it wrong on field, in my and most observers’ opinions and VAR hid behind its high bar.

Calvert-Lewin and MacAllister have both had red cards rescinded since VAR was introduced.

The process is an utter mess. Maybe we should stop appeals being allowed now decisions are looked at twice, but as it stands, clubs can and the rags were successful.

In Germany you can’t appeal red cards whilst in Spain you can appeal both red and two yellow card sendings off. This shows the PL can choose whether appeals are heard or not.

There’s no real point in debating why we have differing opinions on it being a sending off as neither of us will likely change our opinion.
