Watch out for all the Varane, Bale, Neymar briefings coming out now in multiple outlets to deflect from the lack of CL qualification.
Very good point. Bringing spinsorship to manchester united is like luring sailors into a brothel. There are many finance and marketing men who could do the same. Just like there are many who could do an infinitely better job bringing football success to the club.Enough of him just leaving football matters etc. Any competent club and he would be sacked from his CEO job. He gets too much credit for bringing sponsors as if it's something out of this world.
His period as a CEO has been an absolute disaster from all perspectives.
Said it before and really someone should do it: Take about ten posts or so like the above and sticky them or whatever.Our cost structure is out of control. Matchday revenues are flat. Our competitors are catching up to us on sponsorship revenues. Amazing job indeed...
Finally a pundit calling out that fanny pack wearing cnut. Just doing it on the wrong side of the pond. Surely Neville and Rio know he is a problem yet they remain silent.Tweet

Neville has done in the past and there was some passive aggressive comments about maybe getting it right this summer after 7 attempts when they cut to him in the crowd.Finally a pundit calling out that fanny pack wearing cnut.

Tampa can’t be relegated.They haven't sold Tampa yet and there would be no shortage of buyers if they did. I'm afraid we won't see the back of them for a long while yet.
Whilst we are soooooo poor it would do harm to boycott games or even merchandise, hit these imposters where it hurts as it’s the only language they understandThis guy is killing our club every day he remains in charge of Football matters. I wish there was some kind of hostile protest that could drive him out.
I would suggest some kind of protest inside the ground,however would enough people be willing to do it and make our feelings heard.
Eh not good enough....I want to hear a Neville rant on him.Neville has done in the past and there was some passive aggressive comments about maybe getting it right this summer after 7 attempts when they cut to him in the crowd.
Explain what he's doing in particular, because all I've seen is millions of sponsorships ie. Smaller business approaching us.From the footballing side, he's running our club into the ground.
From the financial side, he's doing an amazing job.
Fkin cnut-face.
Spot on. The weird thing is that fans and pundits believe we can turn things around with him at the helm and the Glazers as owners. We are most likely fecked.He's been an unmitigated disaster really. He'll be remembered for years to come for what he's done to us.
Except they are not. People love to make the assumption that just because someone is in a position and does well in certain aspects that no one else could do the job as well.I’m not going to do that. I don’t have the time, data, or will. But mate, you’re losing your marbles here. There can be a middle ground. Woodward needs to go, for rational reasons. Making preposterous, unfounded statements just makes you look like a mouth frothing loon.
Fear not lads, everyone wants to join us! We're the adult Disneyland
They're cooking the books mate. Not comparable.City have overtaken Utd as most valuable club as well

The DoF should be a full time position and I feel that If Plankward gives it Rio it would be a populist choice and not aI will have more respect for him if he doesn’t give Ole the rebuilding job. We are Manchester United, we used to be amongst the top clubs in Europe. Ole doesn’t look like the guy that will take us back there, so no need getting him players based on his recommendations that our next manager might not want. His next assessment is who he will appoint as our DoF. I don’t think Phelan or Ferdinand will be the right choices(Rather Ferdinand our of the two), but let’s see first who the candidate are.
maybe if all the ex players got behind a ‘Woodward and Glazers’ out campaign it might make a differenceEh not good enough....I want to hear a Neville rant on him.
But his ‘thing’ has been proven to be not good enoughSummer window opening up,Ed.
Time to do ya thing.
Sorry, spent the last 5 mins thinking about our donkeys playing pep's football.Likewise, don't want to get into the Poch debate because its pointless now, but similarly and whilst i agree to an extent that our starting 11 isn't that of a title winner, its certainly better than its showing.
Would a Pep etc turn the team we have into a championship winning team? Not in my view.
Would he be able to get more out of the team than is currently the case? Without a shadow of a doubt.
If he wanted to nail it he should have said: They don't care about trophies. They care about the financial aspects.Nailed it!
Only Neville and Scholes are inclined to do that. Rest of the former players are involved with the club in some capacity or another(£££).maybe if all the ex players got behind a ‘Woodward and Glazers’ out campaign it might make a difference
Think you’ve got this wrong - they are happy with their man because their priorities are being met. Utd continue to make money hand over fist. What happens on the field is of no consequence to them.In his 6 years as CEO, Ed Woodward has assembled the most overpaid, underachieving roster in the history of team sports. Hang a toilet seat around his neck and call it the Ed Woodward Trophy for Underwhelming Performance.
Look at the job CEO Edwin van der Sar and DoF Marc Overmars are doing at Ajax. If the Glazers were smart business owners, spending big for a proven management team like VDS and Overmars should be their top priority.
I dislike the guy but cannot deny him his money making prowess. We're utter garbage going for 6y now, yet we had some record breaking years, income wise.I think his fiancial prowess is often over stated, the way he deals with contracts and transfer fees means any revenue stream he's managed to generate is already accounted for.
Mars barsWatch out for all the Varane, Bale, Neymar briefings coming out now in multiple outlets to deflect from the lack of CL qualification.
I honestly don't care.I’m genuinely seething when I read this. It never stops coming up. Any fecking idiot with a business degree would make money with this club in today’s world. It is not impressive or a testament to his skill. We are a ready made cash cow as being absolutely shite while raking in money proves. Time to stop standing back and acting like he has some Midas touch. Get any fecker that’s won the apprentice in and they’ll do the same.
Could I interest you in some Disney Dollars?Fear not lads, everyone wants to join us! We're the adult Disneyland
Iirc one of the years we weren't in the CL, nor were we competing for any trophies, yet we had record breaking revenues/deals signed.Explain what he's doing in particular, because all I've seen is millions of sponsorships ie. Smaller business approaching us.
The guys that work in marketing at the noodle companies that have managed to get their name plastered on front of millions are the ones doing a great job.
He'll probably be still around stinking the place and destroying the rest of the club so we won't have to remember him.He's been an unmitigated disaster really. He'll be remembered for years to come for what he's done to us.
I’m going to venture that you really don’t know what you are talking about. I don’t see anyone here saying Woodward is indispensable. And i doubt anyone even thinks that.Except they are not. People love to make the assumption that just because someone is in a position and does well in certain aspects that no one else could do the job as well.
As mentioned Manchester United is do big that they are getting approached by companies all the time for sponsorship deals. And when they go out it’s an easy sell as opposed to smaller clubs who have no leverage.
Or we get worse owners..We need to get rid of the Glazers. Once that happens everything else will fall into place.
He's basically piggy backing on our name. I'm sure there's a hell of a lot of people that could keep our revenues high, just keep doing what we've been doing for years, collect all the extra money being thrown at us by sponsors/tv/PL/UEFA. What would be a good job is recognising that the football club has no structure. The guy is a CEO and it sounds like we're a shambles behind the scenes. He's doing a very bad job.Iirc one of the years we weren't in the CL, nor were we competing for any trophies, yet we had record breaking revenues/deals signed.
Yeah most probably. I think the fans could make life uncomfortable for him, possibly resulting in change. It's a long shot though.He'll probably be still around stinking the place and destroying the rest of the club so we won't have to remember him.
Bingo! I think even Neville and Scholes wouldn’t criticize Woodward directly. They are probably always thinking about a potential role with the club. They will never burn the bridges.Only Neville and Scholes are inclined to do that. Rest of the former players are involved with the club in some capacity or another(£££).
