We have had excellent talents/prospects over the recent years, remember Adnan Januzi? The problem is we dont seem to improve any players, our players look like they stall or recede over time. If we insist on buying these prospects for the future, what are the realistic chances of improving them...

Re: the bolded part. We will if the club is continued to be run by an investment banker. This is not business management as he has been taught in university, this is football, a sport, where money means nothing when the whistle is blown until the final whistle is blown. He has no clue what so...

If anyone, business or private sells £5 worth of anything for £1m they have made exceptionally serious money..How can paying profits towards interest on borrowed money make you anything but poorer? It may come across as money payed to reduce the debt, but then when you factor in refinancing and...

SAF worked miracles at this club to set it on a good standing for years to come and remain competitive. The fact that we have a 'skint arse' leaching the club for his families legacy is testament to the incompetency of the FA who allowed the Glazers to pass the 'Fit and proper person' test in...

Keefy, youve spewed some absolute kak on these boards, but the green bolded statement sums your absurd stance in one line Can you qualify that statement please? That Woodward himself set up the scouting system at MUFC, and that we didnt have a scouting system in place until he did it? Its an...

Incidentally Keefy, where do you sit in the ground? I ask because Im curious to what the fellow season ticket holders think of your views as you chat prior to kick of and half time? Ive never met a single fan withing the ground who think our owners and the corporate fetus are actually good for...

If salary caps were introduced, then City would have to flout the rules again to stop all the London clubs winning everything. The only players we could sign would be actual United fans or people from the north, the rest of the quality would all head to London because it a world city. This...

That seems like rather bizarre terminology to use when requiring a response. Its almost as though you have made up your mind that any structure is doomed to fail unless one outspends the gulf nations states. I mean, look at any team before success, its a story of bad management. With out adding...

I would say the difference is, our current financial outlook maybe fine but global fans are not loyal to clubs like local/national fans are. It would only take a run of relegation battles for the sponsors to drift away and the fan base shrink considerably. So the long term financial outlook is...

Yes the window is filling us all with hope and trepidation.

I like this very much. I concur and think it the only way to curtail this player power that is gripping our club. I'd appoint Ole as DOF after his managerial stint( obviously, unless its a car crash this coming season and we are staring relegation down the barrel ) would add a stability to the...

I think that is a bit harsh to be honest. When he first came the football was the best since SAF. The team were getting confidence and Ole pushed them to see what he could get out of them. He didnt have enough time to turn players around and improve fitness levels as well as identify the players...

The current share value is $18.50, Its been up as high as $27.70 and as low as $16.91 in the past year alone. Perhaps a great time to invest before we announce our signings if one has a few grand to spare? https://ir.manutd.com/stock-information/stock-chart.aspx

I'm not convinced Martial would improve us playing as a true 9. He is certainly no Vardi sprinting from the defender after holding his run to beat offside (I don't think Ive ever witnessed him actually sprint at Old Trafford tbh) although he can hit the target more often than not if presented...

With Newcastle and Leeds being sounded out for purchase by carbon fuel billionaires and the £170 M and rising premier league payments to each club per season I think it will be sooner rather than later. Especially when we consider the level of investment tabled by these super wealthy carbon fuel...
