“Revenue generation incredible” in one paragraph (thanks to Ed Woodward), goes on to slate Ed Woodward then. What a clown

Vin probably posts here mate

Where would you even start with that FFS

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 1:41pm

I’d love to buy man united

Aertel220 · August 28, 2020, 1:50pm

Would you hire yourself as director of football? United spend plenty of money, maybe the structures and decision making in the club isn’t good enough but they certainly splash the cash.

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 1:51pm

I’d appoint myself as manager.

Rafa called out Liverpool’s toxic owners and Liverpool fans bombarded RBS with letters and hounded Tom Hicks outside the offices of Blackstone, stymying any attempts to refinance and eventually forced himself and Gillet out. United fans spent a few months buying green and gold scarves, Ferguson, with all his influence, never spoke out against the Glazers and the fans continue to enable the Woodward/ Glazer regime buy purchasing the duvet covers and pot noodles from the official branding partners.

Like yer man at Hereford. You’d have your hands full keeping Pogba and Lingard happy.

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 1:56pm

Under the current ownership man united have won four leagues and a champions league. Liverpool have won one league in 30 odd years

Raylan · August 28, 2020, 1:56pm

The press conferences would be dynamite though

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 1:58pm

Lingard needs to go.

Plastic_Paddy · August 28, 2020, 1:58pm

I think so. He was the same at Villa, Shame

Biff_Egan · August 28, 2020, 2:06pm

A series of soft league titles achieved by Ferguson’s cult of personality and the subservience of the LMA proper football men brigade like Moyes, Allardyce, Hughes, Bruce etc. An abysmal strike rate in Europe given the resources.
Managerial giants like LVG and Jose taking the fall for the failures above them

Aertel220 · August 28, 2020, 2:07pm

Sure why do ye want to get rid of them so? They presided over a great spell of success between 2007-2013 (albeit it was all down to Fergie).

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 2:08pm

Man united won two champions league titles in the the last 30 years.

Which English club has won more?

After Liverpool got English clubs banned man united were the trailblazers for English clubs in Europe. You could argue they should have maybe won one more but they bumped into a truly great Barcelona team.

BruidheanChaorthainn · August 28, 2020, 2:10pm

There is two separate issues. Woodward is totally useless but has been given plenty of money. He’s wasted it and made awful managerial appointments.

Biff_Egan · August 28, 2020, 2:13pm

An abysmal strike rate given the dominance of the domestic league, the smart financial moves of the Edwards era and a generational manager in Ferguson.

They were trailblazing in Europe alright, getting humiliated by Galatasaray, Gothenburg and Roto Volgograd. George Graham’s Arsenal restored the pride of the EPL in Europe
