"He reportedly received £2.16million-a-year to serve as a global ambassador for the club in an agreement which has continued for over a decade."

Fucking hell.
 
Time for a banner me thinks...too fuck'n right they should be shamed.

' Ratcliffe reportedly told workers: 'If you don't like it, please seek alternative employment. ' There are not enough desks to fit everyone in the London and Manchester offices as they were adapted for working from home numbers, according to the Athletic.

Go back to your desk when there is no desk, then goes round and lays them off, all the while he's running around with neville trying to bum 2 billion off the government, bloke is a charlatan :)
 
He's an octogenarian who has nothing else to do with his miserable life accept cling onto the past. As a human being this about as futile an existence as there could ever be. No present, no future.
Didn't Shankly do pretty much the same at Anfield when he was kicked out?

To me it is a step in the right direction for the rags - unfortunately. The moistened-eyed brigade will get all sentimental and daydream about events from 30-40 years ago, but the more level-headed and pragmatic amongst them will realise it had to be done.
Because die hard rags will only see what they want to see: a man who came in and changed the club's fortunes for the better. But most other football fans will see that he was a very, very fortunate man in that he had been given more money than any British football club manager had to spend and could thus cherry pick the best of the talent around.
He was a matter of seconds away from being fired when a lucky strike went in and saved his job - and he has rested on that ever since. He and his club rode roughshod over everyone else in the sport, he became the bullying despot that we all know him for, and subsequently burnt more bridges than any other manager involved in the game, including Revie.

I believe Pandora is readying herself to open the box and reveal the genuine truth behind his time at the swamp, and I don't think it's one that rag fans are going to want to hear.
