We need some progress. If we can lose 0-1 to Swansea, we would have conceded less away goals than last season. Therefore I expect a contract extension for Van Gaal at full time.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

All too Game of Thrones for me. That said Scholes doesn't want LVG sacked either!

Fergie wants Giggs to takeover to increase his power at OT? First he was against LVG now he's supportive because he doesn't want Mourinho in charge?

Well said.
Indeed. Take everything with a large pinch of salt.
Fat fingers.
Your best post in years.
so Red Issue reckon Fergie always does what's best for himself over the club.
Just seeming to ignore all those tough decisions player wise, when he could have just taken the easy option.
Fanzines are usually guff, kids stuff.

I'm back.
Not sure about Red Issue and their tales. However, I'm inclined to believe there is an issue behind the scenes in the boardroom. The horrible thing is that this is going to be filtered down into every aspect of the club if people in charge aren't careful. Scares me to think what the club will become if egos aren't controlled. Wish the bloody Glazers weren't such passive owners. Giggs is not qualified so send him away to get his experience. LVG is failing so fix that problem. Surely Woodward and SAF shouldn't be able to carry on any quarrel that is obviously detrimental to the club?
The only thing out of those tweets that I can point to as being inaccurate is that Woodward appointed Moyes as well - pretty sure this was done before he began his tenure. Otherwise, the club is in deep shit if half of that stuff tweeted is true.

If Moyes thinks we should hold on to van Gaal we need to fire LVG immediately.
Cool and likewise for Pep I suppose
If there's a power struggle between Fergie and Ed, there will only be one winner and it isn't SAF. I don't believe that story though.
Red Issue is known for bullshit.
I don't think that Red Issue are bullshitters, they are pricks of the highest order but I don't think that they purposely lie.
Well, I cant say that their inside information are very good. Also, you are right about the pricks of the highest order thing
The Rooney stuff?
Also Moyes isn't seen as a Woodward failure. It was Fergie that recommended him.
Glad to hear someone else say it. I was worried for a moment my memory was going
What has Fergie got to gain from winning power over Woodward?
Red issue bollocks again.
Red issue bollocks again.
Dreading that. Us mucking about with possession, while Liverpool play on the counter. Probably going to lose that game.
Power! Control! Of Manchester United!
Either that or a better seat around the boardroom table.
Actually it makes a lot of sense, you don't really think that a man who has been the undisputed boss is going to just sit and watch, it's not in his DNA.
Loads of conspiracy theories but no @SteveJ?
Fergie stole his tin hat, he thinks it'll enhance his mind control powers.
I don't think it is about power so much as Fergie cares about Manchester United. His passion was real. One can argue should he still have a say in club matters. But that is a seperate argument.
That RedIssue crap... wow.
Fergie wanting power over Woodward? As a wise man once said, "Mr Ferguson, the way I see it, all this stuff is yours, anyway".

Some are so desperate to get LVG out they will believe anything as long as there is a possibility that LVG goes.
Can you really imagine, even if true, that somebody would be given that information in the current climate. It sounds like a mass mutiny at OT. Yet, we also have LVG saying, and naming, key personnel who phoned him and re-assured him of his position.
The media clowns have been proven yet again to have absolutely no inside information so are trying another avenue. LVG will either go at the end of his contract, or there will be a surprise report of his departure. Hoping every day to get that surprise is going to cause some a miserable 18 months.

Maybe he just sees Woodward as clueless when it comes to football matters, and wants to genuinely help United get back on track.
They are what they are.
I've given up hope though. He's here for a while, regardless of results
surely the board can end all the rumours by just making a statement. This does not help the team preperations nor the club as a whole.
Seems like he'll be in control til the end of the season now. There's a good chance of securing 3 decent results in a row with our upcoming fixtures.
Unfortunately I still expect us to limp along and struggle for 4th.

sounds very much like the board does not want Mourinho nor an interim manager. That does not mean van Gaal will not be let go. If results keep being poor, Fergie may be asked to assist Giggs until the season ends.
Do you want them to make a statement each time the media or fans have a meltdown. They only need to make a statement if he is going.
Since we have very few shareholders no one is going to ask awkward questions at an AGM or EGM.
Silence from the board should give all that fans all they need to know, no change, no matter how hard that is for some to hear.
no. not each time there is something. But after the huge speculation he will be sacked. Unless things are fluid and the board is still considering matters. Its not just the losses, but how poorly we have played in these matches that is worrying the supporters.
I think it's probably more a case of him wanting the power as he still thinks he knows best, he's our Vince McMahon.
Someone did an article on "how Klopp's Liverpool have been found out in 2months"
Seemed to basically be teams just went long, meaning Pool had 6 pressers out of the game in an instance.
Fellaini is already gearing up
Surely the last thing he wants to do is basically have to do the job through Giggs.
I don't think he wants the job but I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to feel influential. Woodward is basically a member of the Glazers, so the only way to have an influence on the club is through the manager.
The installment of his blue eyed boy into a totally undeserved post? Let's not kid ourselves thinking that SAF is some saint who, just because he has retired, lacks personal ambition or that if he thinks Woodward is tool whose incompetence is dragging the club downwards he wouldn't act. The about turn made by Scholes re-LVG, after weeks of attacking him, leads me to think that there is something more brewing. RI could be lying but the way LVG has survived this is too strange to just blame it on an inept board. If it hadn't been for Mourinho's sudden availability LVG would be chilling in Portugal right now, the moment Mourinho gets snapped up the attack dogs will be all over LVG regardless of the results at that time.
