Good oneMeanwhile he's bought Nice and made you look a right biscuit.

To be fair, I read that the company is privately owned and the owner has minimal ties to the CCP. China (like all communist oriented countries) likes to control the business that goes on in the country so the involvement in the CCP is probably an unofficial requirement to conducting business there.Disgusting. I don't want any ties with China or Saudi. Why can't we ever have good, honorable and noble men like Jim Radcliffe?
Been thinking the same thing myself and had a conversation with my mate about it the other day. Hope one of them buys us soon.I argued tbis since day one with th doom and gloom posters on bere. Our sponsorships will not drop with the size of our fanbase
BRITAIN'S richest man revealed he will not buy Manchester United as the club have "lost the plot".Meanwhile he's bought Nice and made you look a right biscuit.
Because even he said it'd be crazy to invest in a football club. So we're stuck with multi nationals
Meant us. Pedant!
Given that no other club has signed a bigger deal in the 5 years since the Chevy one, and now this is apparently another uplift, I’m not sure your logic is stacking up here.Sounds a bit low given the longevity of it.
It's an indication of our decline that it's barely higher than the previous decade-long deal. With inflation, it's actually lower and that's without accounting for players inflation which is way higher.
I only wanted to make a Nice biscuit quip really.Meant us. Pedant!
Is it pronounced nice or Nice?I only wanted to make a Nice biscuit quip really.
Niece.Is it pronounced nice or Nice?
Neice biscuits?Niece.
As much as people want to admit it. It’s the islamaphobia.People were making so much noise in the potential Saudi takeover thread.
I suppose bulldozing Uighers and Hong Kong protesters is fine!
There’s a picture on the 1st page of them sponsoring the Pakistani hockey team and the logo is white.Why do people seem confident that the logo will be presented in white, when in actual fact its blue?
And blue wouldn't look great tbh
Aye, same as the City, sounds like how the English pronounce niece.Neice biscuits?
I'm not offering them saying that!
It's feck all to do with Islamophobia.As much as people want to admit it. It’s the islamaphobia.
It's not the size of our fanbase that will determine it but our global visibility, as long as we are in the PL and regularly in Europe we will have big sponsors.I argued this since day one with the doom and gloom posters on here. Our sponsorships will not drop with the size of our fanbase
Oh piss offAs much as people want to admit it. It’s the islamaphobia.
Looks like "Hater"Reference
Using words like disgusting about whole countries, in China's case almost 20% of the world's population just comes across a bit racist to be honest.Disgusting. I don't want any ties with China or Saudi. Why can't we ever have good, honorable and noble men like Jim Radcliffe?
Local Hong Kong police endorsed by Communist China? Haha. Dude, you need to read more before commenting.If you happened to watch some development over the months you would not miss actions from local Police , Endorsed by Communist China to fire tear gases , live rounds at protesting crowd , plainclothes cops driving towards protesting crowd ... and numerous other Police violence incidents . Of course You may say you don’t understand the situation in Hong Kong as the GOAT LeBron echoed the other month.
It comes across as daft and desperate refusing to give Woodard any credit for the work he does on the non-Footballing side of the club.Haier dryer is very much needed
Also if it happens it's not due to Woodward's genius. You can put Paddy Crerand as the CEO and there will still be loads of companies offering us sponsorship deals. We're shite and someone literally asked 'Do you want a world record sponsorship deal sir'?
The perks of being a massive club and all that
Get Facebook as our main sponsor for all things related to data science and technology and I will give him plenty of credits.It comes across as daft and desperate refusing to give Woodard any credit for the work he does on the non-Footballing side of the club.
Oddly specific.Get Facebook as our main sponsor for all things related to data science and technology and I will give him plenty of credits.
I believe Richard Arnold actually heads up our commercial and sponsorship efforts, albeit he obviously reports to Woody.It comes across as daft and desperate refusing to give Woodard any credit for the work he does on the non-Footballing side of the club.
The bit I am concerned about is being regularly in Europe as I'm concerned that if we don't get a few signings January and put a decent run of form together that we might miss out, unless we win the Europa League.It's not the size of our fanbase that will determine it but our global visibility, as long as we are in the PL and regularly in Europe we will have big sponsors.
This is correct. I think Arnold assumed that main responsability when Woodward became CEO.I believe Richard Arnold actually heads up our commercial and sponsorship efforts, albeit he obviously reports to Woody.
I mean china aren't really any better than north korea these days. Just much more powerful.While we are it let’s stop wearing the kit altogether, if we can’t have sponsors or manufacturers of the shirt who have any possible links to anything bad.
Let’s have our kit hand stitched in the hilltops of the Swiss Alps, sponsored by green peace.
Then and only then will I be confident that my club has a moral compass as great as mine.
Seriously though I’m sure people here just enjoy making everything about United a negative.
You would think we were having our kit made in North Korea and sponsored by Jim’ll Fix It. Ffs
I don't think it'll be too long before Chinese Billionaires start snapping up European clubs, this is only the beginning.
