In fairness you don’t need to have a professional photographer along to get that picture. Someone with a decent camera and an inkling of how to use it would achieve the same resultTweet

Really hoping this doesn't mean he'll be showing up at the next press conference in a short skirt and no underwear.Have none of you people seen Basic Instinct? Ed is playing you all

Drastic times call for drastic measures....the fans were chanting for Ed to be burned in a bonfire plus the media had turned on Ed so he hires Neil Ashton to rehab his image by whatever means necessary.So, to be clear, you believe that Neil Ashton, a few weeks into the job he quit journalism for, decided it would be a good idea to hire 20 thugs to attack his boss's house (plus a load of his former colleagues to document it), without seeking permission from his new boss first?
How do you think Ed felt when Ashton came in to his office and admitted to him what he had done. How fecking furious do you think he got.
I'm not watching that space.
Cmon. It's like Disneyland in there...I'm not watching that space.
Ed "then add another £20m to the offer..... and keep going until they accept"Ed: "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse"
Lacky: "Don Woodleone, the offer's just been refused"
Ed: "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse"
Lacky: "Don Woodleone, the offer's just been refused"
Why is it so hard to believe that it did actually happen in the way it’s claimed and wasn’t a setup? Is it because united fans are a a symbol of virtue?I’ll appreciate this. I was called all sorts for suggesting it was set up and followed through by the Sun. Wonder how many are humble enough to admit they went too far
This is all seems needlessly complicated.Drastic times call for drastic measures....the fans were chanting for Ed to be burned in a bonfire plus the media had turned on Ed so he hires Neil Ashton to rehab his image by whatever means necessary.
Ed doesnt need to know how it happens, CEO's like Ed do not need to know how something is accomplished, just get the job done.
You think Neil has to go to Ed's office and confess what he did? The less Ed knew about this the better it is. If there is a fall guy it will be Neil and Ed will issue a statement along the lines that Neil went rogue. CEO's never take the fall, their underlings do, at least thats how it works in the Enterprises I have worked at.
yeah but...add onsEd: "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse"

Same question can be asked about why with all the ‘coincidences’ and what’s happened today, why can’t anyone believe it wouldn’t be a set up?Why is it so hard to believe that it did actually happen in the way it’s claimed and wasn’t a setup? Is it because united fans are a a symbol of virtue?
I mean its not like things like this haven’t happened before to David Gills house. Maybe that was a setup too
what happened today? and what coincidences?Same question can be asked about why with all the ‘coincidences’ and what’s happened today, why can’t anyone believe it wouldn’t be a set up?
I’ll agree with you i don’t doubt some of the away lads could easily have done something like this... however I also believe if they did it wouldn’t have been such a pathetic attempt using a flare.
There isn't actually a lot of coincidences. The simplest explanation is idiots wants to see their idiotic actions publicized, therefore they contact the biggest british publication who is also known for its lack of moral compass. Said british publication send a reporter and a photograph. The end.Same question can be asked about why with all the ‘coincidences’ and what’s happened today, why can’t anyone believe it wouldn’t be a set up?

United have reported The Sun for their journalist and potentially a photographer being present at Woodward’s house and not reporting it to the authorities ...I wasn’t alone in saying as soon the story broke it would be a set up and those of us who said so were slaughtered and insulted. Only feels right that we now get to feel a little more justifiedwhat happened today? and what coincidences?
Right. The same group of supporters who have an almost Scouse like dislike for the Sun and were happy to be pictured and interviewed whilst committing a crime?There isn't actually a lot of coincidences.

People were slaughtered for saying Woodward set it up and that having the reporter present proved it.United have reported The Sun for their journalist and potentially a photographer being present at Woodward’s house and not reporting it to the authorities ...I wasn’t alone in saying as soon the story broke it would be a set up and those of us who said so were slaughtered and insulted.

I have no idea about who these people are, I don't even know if they are actually into football and which club they all support. So I don't know how you can claim that they have a dislike for a particular paper, who I suppose is sold in the city of Manchester.Right. The same group of supporters who have an almost Scouse like dislike for the Sun and were happy to be pictured and interviewed whilst committing a crime?
Ed: "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse"
Lacky: "Don Woodleone, the offer's just been refused"
Ed: "Prepare another bid!"
The wider fan base as a whole has a dislike for the sun, but the wider fan base also wouldn’t stoop so low as to attack someone’s house. You’d guess the kind of people that would do this wouldn’t be the sharpest, so yes they might have thought ‘we need to make sure a tabloid at our level will be there to publicise what an admirable thing we are doing’.Right. The same group of supporters who have an almost Scouse like dislike for the Sun and were happy to be pictured and interviewed whilst committing a crime?
Don’t tar me with that same brush. I said it was a PR stunt and it stank and still stinks of Ashton.People were slaughtered for saying Woodward set it up and that having the reporter present proved it.
I doubt the group who did this have anything to do with Manchester or United.I have no idea about who these people are, I don't even know if they are actually into football and which club they all support. So I don't know how you can claim that they have a dislike for a particular paper, who I suppose is sold in the city of Manchester.
In that case your previous argument makes no sense.I doubt the group who did this have anything to do with Manchester or United.
It’s commonly accepted on here that The Sun is full of shit. You’d get crucified on here for posting transfer news from them. Now they have “exclusive” news about the supposed 20+ hooligans complete with professional grade photos, that doesn’t even show 20, where they literally pose for a camera in the middle of committing a felony and now it’s taken as gospel.Has any news come out saying it didn't happen or was staged? Am i missing something?
Set up by The Sun.Are there seriously people in this thread who believe this was a setup by the club/Woodward? Because in that case please never leave your apartment, we're not gonna miss you.
People really gonna believe that?Tweet
