Where should we build it? Native American burial ground?I don't get the significance of it been at a golf course, why would it be viable for United to build a training ground there?
As in use the land. Golf clubs are massive, we'd basically terraform a golf club.I don't get the significance of it been at a golf course, why would it be viable for United to build a training ground there?
Because no one else wastes so much prime property to walk around chugging a bag of rods so that they could finally put a ball in a hole, after multiple failed attempts.I don't get the significance of it been at a golf course, why would it be viable for United to build a training ground there?
Maybe, or a United supporting farmer might fancy renting/selling us a bit of land.Where should we build it? Native American burial ground?
Interesting, why would the manager have any say in a long-term facilities planning decision?Heard from a reliable source a while back that Salford Red Devils (Rugby League side for those that dont know) had been talking with the club. Suggestion of some kind of Under 23/academy/women's team stadium being built at Carrington that would be used by Salford as their new home ground.
General training would then be based elsewhere in a new "state of the art" facility.
Only opposition was actually from Ten Hag.
This was all pre Ratcliffe so who knows if any of that plan (assuming any elements of it are true) come to fruition.
Cause we have been awfully run. Hopefully our new structure would tell him to jog on.Interesting, why would the manager have any say in a long-term facilities planning decision?

Imagine if this was the case
What a bloody stupid idea. The players are gonna keep rolling their ankles trying to train in bunkers and catch their death retrieving balls from the water features!
Has been suggested it could be Colette Roche (yes I know internal appointment) but at least she will be reporting to experienced personI would have preferred him to be United CEO only. Gill is too old, we need fresh blood to move on now
No way the Glazers would give that upTweet

They wouldn't have the expertise, they might see some of the money from it for more shares however...No way the Glazers would give that up

Those rods have been precisionly engineered to get that ball in the hole in the quickest way possible. We'd never attract the likes of Bale with a pathetic pitch and putt setup.Because no one else wastes so much prime property to walk around chugging a bag of rods so that they could finally put a ball in a hole, after multiple failed attempts.
Perhaps the idea is to procure someone who will focus exclusively on Manchester United, with Blanc readily available in a sounding board capacity as the octopuslike Chief Executive of INEOS's sports portfolio.I would have preferred him to be United CEO only.

it was always a competition between gas rich owners and oil rich onesBought 25% of Man Utd and tore down Carrington just to get access to it
They might be young but they are very experienced as well. Bocquet held the position of CEO at FC Lorient between 2015 and 2020, after a four-year stint at strategy consultancy McKinsey & Company from 2011 to 2015. Ghisolfi was sporting director at Lens since 2019. Kul had already covered the role at 3 other clubs prior to joining Nice FC.SJR tried to hire Mitchell as well but he turned them down for Monaco. Let's not forget that Nice are a relatively small club. You won't be able to attract the best of the best there. Yet these people are far more experienced then the likes of Arnold, Murtough, Woodward and Fletcher when they got their CEO/DOF/TD roles at United.Perhaps the idea is to procure someone who will focus exclusively on Manchester United, with Blanc readily available in a sounding board capacity as the octopuslike Chief Executive of INEOS's sports portfolio.
Maybe we will see the duplication of Ratcliffe's apparent model at Nice — through sheer happenstance or intentional design, they have appointed a lot of relatively young people in all branches of the club (unless the bottom falls out or they are poached by other organizations, at least some of these appointments will ensure long-term continuity at an institutional level (irrespective of who the Head Coach is)).
P.S. Speaking of David Gill and the need for young blood, Oliver quit professional football at age 20 to prioritize his academic career (and currently works at KKR & Co., and previously worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers, Deloitte and Rothschild & Co.)
- Chief Executive: Fabrice Bocquet, 40 years old.
- Sporting Director: Florent Ghisolfi, 39 years old.
- Chief Analyst: Osman Kul, 30 years old.

Return of the prodigal son, as someone who primarily handles specific department(s), and subsequently moves up the commercial and operational food chain? For reference, David was initially appointed as a finance director at United to replace Leeds-bound Robin Launders, and moved up the food chain as deputy Chief Executive, Group Managing Director, and finally Chief Executive to replace Chelsea-bound Peter Kenyon.

You really think he would of had input in the Jan transfer window......deals don't happen overnight.So with him on board our transfer strategy this winter is sell/loan young potential talents like Amad, Hannibal, Fernandez and focus on older players such as MCTominay, Martial etc..... hmmmmm
And it will be mostly buy BritishYou really think he would of had input in the Jan transfer window......deals don't happen overnight.
As its been said, his focus is the summer.
this is a load of bollocks, obviously, but even if it was true, you’d think it was 1995 and we were producing shite. British talent, specifically English are comfortably some of the best in the world right now, there’s so much quality coming through at the moment.And it will be mostly buy British
It's weird how much anti-English sentiment people have for supporters of an English club.this is a load of bollocks, obviously, but even if it was true, you’d think it was 1995 and we were producing shite.

One of the worst aspects of this place. An embarrassing disconnect which really is weird. So many on here would be happy if there were zero English players playing for usIt's weird how much anti-English sentiment people have for supporters of an English club.
The undertakerSimilar level to Kane? Who's that then?
What's the deal with Salford? AJ Bell Stadium not up to scratch or what?Heard from a reliable source a while back that Salford Red Devils (Rugby League side for those that dont know) had been talking with the club. Suggestion of some kind of Under 23/academy/women's team stadium being built at Carrington that would be used by Salford as their new home ground.

I don't think they have agreed a long term tenancy agreement with the council. https://www.loverugbyleague.com/pos...ence-is-under-threat-without-new-stadium-dealWhat's the deal with Salford? AJ Bell Stadium not up to scratch or what?
Yep. Picking up the best local and national talent is an absolute must for the club.this is a load of bollocks, obviously, but even if it was true, you’d think it was 1995 and we were producing shite. British talent, specifically English are comfortably some of the best in the world right now, there’s so much quality coming through at the moment.
Good?And it will be mostly buy British
Murthough to be placed in stocks outside of Old Trafford, Ten Hag to be imprisoned in the youth academy at Carrington and implementing regular beating of coaches for performance reasons.
Can someone please explain this metaphor in simple words ? ThanksTweet

Can’t trust the people in the club now to provide honest accounts so need to take into account opinions of those that have left and get more realistic views.Can someone please explain this metaphor in simple words ? Thanks
