Plans will go down the same road as the scallies and their Stanly park trick

It’s all part of the plan to escape PSR punishment for next season … special allowances and all that don’t you know !

What I find hilarious is the green & gold shit. It supposed to be a link to Newton Heath.

There's zero evidence that Newton Heath played in those colours, it was myth pushed by Adidas and United to flog shirts, the thick fuckers duely obliged.

It was green and gold outside the Amber Club, after I had stopped pissing and throwing up. I think that's why the green and gold came to be associated with Newton Heath.

Dulux!...do ye think they're made of fkin money....B&Q own brand is the spec...

Haha, it’s like coloured milk B&Q !

 

[Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese]

I really do not think that level of Government investment (because dress up whichever way you like) in Manchester United will be received very well.

They may well paint it as a regeneration project because that is what it is.... total regeneration in Manchester United FC.

I agree it won't be received well, but that doesn't seem to bother the govt much.

well...'you gotta pick a pocket or two'...according to the Failsworth Fagin..

100% this.... if football and the authorities cannot see this..... then god help them.

 

[waspish]

I am sightly more relaxed now

Ratcliffe has said it is heavily dependent upon the Government commitment and co-operation.

IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN.

This government couldn't deliver a letter.

Government funding.... at a time when Rachel Thieves is going to deliver a devastating economic statemen that is going to slash public spending and cut backs galore.

A great partnership Labour and Manchester United.... destined for absolute failure.

You've seen how here mp's love a backhander!? Enough Money will always persuade people to do what you ask them! Then they give it and string along why they giving it all swept under the carpet!

Full

Is it just me or does that look like a circus?

Of clowns anyway

 

[Stoned Rose]

Fucking wow...I didnt realise what they had paid for these players...proper had over a barrel

Brazil winger Antony is another on loan, at Spanish club Real Betis, after struggling at Old Trafford following an £81.5m move from Ajax.

Compatriot Casemiro arrived in 2022 in a £70m deal, while Denmark striker Hojlund arrived the following year for £72m.

Cameroon international Onana joined the club in the same summer for £47.2m.

On the BBC website scruffy Jim has name checked payers who are not good enough & overpaid

Fully expecting it to go further tits up at the swamp

Lovely

70 large for Scranimero is scandalous.

I know it'll have been posted ....but......

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I've just watched the video. There is no way that they are going to get the money together for that. 3 towers, 200 feet high. The largest public space in the world. Sections of stadium floated down the ship canal. And finished within 5 years. Anything this ambitious will cost 5 billion, not 2 billion.

I've been watching a few videos about failed mega projects, and it's amazing how full of shit so many architects seem to be when talking about their projects. The crown jewel of architect bullshit has to be the Neom project in Saudi Arabia.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Is it just me or does that look like a circus?

Nope, not just you. Something else Goldstein said.

It’s like they have no self awareness. Currently dog shit and club full of clowns - and they release this. Almost like they’re taking the piss out of themselves!

They really are the gift that keeps on giving

 

[Blackley_Blue]

Pretty scathing statement released from one of their main fan groups...

 

[PistonBlue]

Cone on own up, who drew up the designs for them? A fucking big top, has to be a Blue surely?

Yep. At least the Saudis have their own money to piss away though.
