So the government are backing this. Ridiculous

Man United earn Government backing for Old Trafford regeneration

The Government said the regeneration project would be a 'shining example of the bold pro-development model that will drive growth across the region'.

It doesn't mean joe tax payer is footing the bill. It's also the daily hate mail, so that's working against the story.

So if you needed further proof of how much of a basket case this club is and how detached players are to reality, Rashford being called out by his manager for not even trying.

Yep that’s right, 300k a week to not even try,

This is up there with the time Tevez when he refused to come on for Man City.

Don’t think I’ve ever seen such a public exercise to force a player out as I have at Man Utd for Rashford, how many more articles about him do we need?

Desperate to get his wages off the bill....
Because according to their owners their a ticket price rise away from breaching psr

Anyone with any interest in the subject knows that Ineos and Ratcliffe are both horrible from a moral point of view, but even beyond that what is his hit rate from a sports point of view? Cycling team has been a steady decline, sailing team saw him sack GB's greatest sailer and his footy team is a mess of incoherant cost cutting and directions.

Must be headed out on loan, I suspect to Spain.

Government money (ie ours) projected to be used to pay off the freight terminal owners.

At a glance: what was in Rachel Reeves speech?

The chancellor announces measures she says will kickstart growth: what are they?

www.bbc.co.uk

It’s just wrong but they’ll be quivering at the thought of £7bn projected “growth”

Manchester United at risk of PSR breach, club tell fans

Manchester United have written to fans to warn them that the club are at risk of breaching spending rules - and that ticket prices could rise as a result.

www.bbc.co.uk

I read that fans surrounded Ratcliffe’s car after their last game in protest at the £66/ticket regardless of age (kid or pensioner no difference) and Ratcliffe said to them that it was ridiculous that OT tickets were cheaper than Fulham’s so they had to lump the hike.

Making friends wherever he goes …..

"The Old Trafford scheme is expected to use public money to move three rail freight terminals blocking the redevelopment."

There's a few ways to skin a cat, transport budget, amalgamating the terminals possibly into one, giving the old trafford development the go ahead means more businesses, more rates, more footfall, more draw to that side of manchester. There's a fair chunk of Salford that's practically derelict (or was last I walked through it). Don't rail operators pay a toll to use the lines? Modernising doesn't have to be a bad thing, keeping firms going the same. Long term planning that pays off consistently instead of short termism. It's on the glazers and ratcliffe anyway, want an answer by the end of this summer. Huge decision, we've been moving for 30 years.

He’s a Thatcher-ite so not exactly a shock like. Shame seeing a working class club (at their core) having a Tory as the owner

 

[Tommy Chong]

They just got pummelled 0-2 at home against Palace!


It ain't looking too good for ol' Amorim.

 

[JimmyJeffers]

Mess of a club. You’d have thought their global standing and revenue must be depleting given that new overseas football fans will have never seen them being successfully

 

[Wat Tyler]

Not only has he not improved them but he’s made them even worse. It’s impressive. Dyche lying down and dying against these was disgraceful.

 

[BlueStevie35]

First time in 131 years they’ve lost 7 of their first 13 home games, Amourim won’t last till the end of the season
