I get it, there's a lot of justified anger towards this man and the owners, this is not the way to go about change though, actually attacking these people's houses, it only hurts the cause imo

 

[JohnnyLaw]

He’s already resigned you nuts...

 

[laughtersassassin]

I doubt it. Another PR stunt.

It does hurt the cause hence why Ashton gets this shit done up.

Police not called again? Very convenient.

They did this to stop the protests last time and they are doing it again.

 

[Ali Dia]

this sounds like very cheap anti protest PR

Don’t fall for it!

 

[Samid]

At least they were following covid protocols.

It's not even justified though. He was employed to do a job. All that ire should be directed at the owners.

 

[rimaldo]

that’s not on. if you have a grievance with someone and you know where there house is, you should do what any sane person does and shit in their flowerbed. i’ve done this for years with one of the neighbours after a dispute about an unclaimed wheely bin. we have been cordial otherwise and they often complain about foxes in their garden. i pretty much mimic the diet of an urban fox nowadays to really mask the identity of the pop culprit.

 

[tenpoless]

It was actually his neighbour walking the dog but when you have money and power you can turn him into a balaclava wearing attacker with a vicious hound.

that would still make him a nazi war criminal.

You really underestimate the work Ed has done.

 

[SuperiorXI]

No name on article, police not called, no footage, no noise anywhere else. Most likely nonsense.

 

[laughtersassassin]

There isn't an ounce of proof this happened.

In fact the Cheshire police said they weren't called.

Or nonsense to give us a bad name

 

[Shane88]

Cheshire police have told Sky Sports News they weren't alerted to the incident.

A group of masked men show up and attack your home and you don't call the police? Yeah fecking right...

 

[Ali Dia]

I'm fact the Cheshire police said they weren't called.

Wild protest so

It’s absolute BS

 

[Gehrman]

Was it Antifa?

 

[Wednesday at Stoke]

Probably Phil Jones and Eric Bailly negotiating a contract extension.

 

[Infra-red]

Not even sure he's still there - he put the house up for sale in September (which was one of the factors that had been feeding rumours he was off this year, even before the ESL had gone to pot).

 

[Jezpeza]

So the proof is a smashed up gate?
probably reversed into by a lost dpd driver doing a 3 point turn

 

[Catt]

Agreed

 

[decorativeed]

 

[Stevondo8]

I thought he lived in London now?

 

[Eckers99]

His garden is only just recovering from the previous bombardment of approximately 3 fireworks.

 

[Adam-Utd]

He doesn't even live there. A few idiots basically damaged a gate and left.

 

[Rightnr]

Honestly, I don't believe it.

And anyone saying he was employed to do a job can take a hike. If the job is asset-stripping this club just so some Florida mummy can have another boat or house, he should have resigned on principle. If not, he's fair game for criticism in one form or another, even if some sensible souls on here might find it distressing.

You made your bed, you lie in it. Some people take it to extremes and even if I don't agree with it, last time it spurred the club into action.

 

[hobbers]

A couple of guys turned up and scuffed his gate.

No police called, no images? No drama.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

A week after we heard bullshit stories he was opposed to the Super League.

Let him fade into nothingness and stop giving these stories any attention. He will no longer be our problem soon.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Did the masks have "I'm a protestor, not a hooligan or opportunistic thief" on them?

Because otherwise people might think this is PR spin or SKY making the news instead of reporting it.

 

[Eckers99]

His family lives within 250 miles of that house. Disgraceful.

 

[van Nistelrooy]

I doubt it. Another PR stunt.

Absolutely spot on.

Was convinced there was something wrong about the entire incident and news reaction last time. This club and Ashton have a lot to answer for.

 

[shamans]

Never understood the hate towards Ed Woodward.

The guy was a finance guy and that's all he knew and was good at. He was hired by the Glazers to do a job for them and he did that job. What did people expect? Ed Woodward to magically become a Van Der Sar? He was not as experienced at the football side of things but I lay blame on his employers not the guy.

Woodward was a salaried employee doing his job. Fans can be so immature really.

 

[ivaldo]

No, it wouldn't.

Not condoning it but that's not true. Was he not instrumental in the Glazers buying united in the first place?

 

[Vidyoyo]

At least they were following covid protocols.

Came here to post this and you've already posted it.

I've added you to my list.

 

[ivaldo]

You really underestimate the work Ed has done.

The work he was employed to do? Or are you suggesting he was making major decisions without the consent of the board of directors?

 

[UNITED ACADEMY]

Attacking their houses is only making us look like the bad guy here. Let's keep it classy and making them look like the bad one.

 

[Utd heap]

Convenient before Sunday.

 

[shamans]

Not condoning it but that's not true. Was he not instrumental in the Glazers buying united in the first place?

But he was an employee. His was doing his job. Woodward will be replaced by another employee whose #1 priority would be to keep the glazers happy. Woodward has no say in the stuff fans are angry about. The glazers are to be blamed not their employees.

 

[red thru&thru]

I'm suggesting he was the one who made the purchase of United happen and was then employed by the Glazers and was overseeing the day-to-day running of the club. He was even present in the picture where himself, Joe, Avram, Henry and Gazidis were in a restaurant together dining, shows what kind of influence Ed Woodward had.

 

[RUCK4444]

Yeah this sounds like bullsh*t

No, he was the one appointed to make it happen, because that was his job. He was then employed to carry out a role created and imagined by the club owners.
