Same shit behind the seems, simply repackaged. Let's see what the next two windows manifest.

Judge's role hasn't changed and it's just a title change, exact same job as he has been doing.
This is the main thing thats annoys me about this, there are positives to be had in the others. The fact he has been demoted acknowledges he shouldnt be doing the job, and Woodward has kept his clique mate in the job
That edit is hilarious. As is the response where you agree with someone saying 'no change' and highlight that there is one major change in Darren Flecther being involved.
Our ethos has been changing over the course of Ole's tenure, focusing on players being right for the team and not for the sponsors, investing in our youth set up and developing the women's team. This is hopefully another good step forward in terms of structure and even if Matt judge isn't everyone's cup of tea, i am sure he'll need to improve or he'll have Ole, Fletcher and Murtough complaining that he's preventing them doing their jobs so Ed can't ignore.
Tell ye wha'...
This is the WORST NEWS EVER if you are in the Ole Out Brigade.
This is the proof - if proof were ever needed - that we are going the long-term route...
Get your seatbelts on, guys 'n' gals... this journey gonna take a while...

Ole is a dictator for life
Well seeing as it's inaccurate and you know, why don't you tell us what their roles are instead?
Woodward hasn't been involved in direct negotiations for years now.
Exactly. Doesn't seem like he has been good at it
And somewhere in California, the real John Murtaugh is thinking wtf is he doing reciting Othello.
Wasn’t it? How’d ye know that?
Why do I feel underwhelmed.
So it appears. The fact that they weren't able to attract a quality sporting director "Is not a good sign"
It means that no one wanted to take a job where they wouldn't be able to do their job independently.
In short, Woodward's still in charge, the sporting director is his lackey. The Glazer's are trying to run a club they can't afford to run....so this is what we get.
It’s evidence that structure is more important than the manager. Ole will be responsible for what happens on the pitch and if he doesn’t meet standard and gets the sack the club carry on without him. It’s not a positive or negative reflection on Ole.
Tell me more about your role within the Manchester United machine.
When you’ve done that, tell me more about ‘quality sporting directors’ and how you have come to know so much about their value.
I'll answer your question when you tell me how appointing Matt Judge as Director of Football Negotiations who botched the Sancho deal, failed to get Haaland, Bellingham, and most likely had a hand in...
Signing a 32 year old Matic to a three year deal
Signing a injury prone Phil Jones to a 5 year deal
Signing a lucrative extended contract to Alexis Sanchez which made him virtually impossible to sell
Signing a lucrative extended contract to David De Gea, thereby limiting our options of keeping Henderson
Recently signing an injury prone Cavani who states he's not happy and wants to leave....
....and I am just getting started, is a good improvement for the club.
Nothing is really changing at United, they are just shuffling seats around, Ed Woodward is still in charge, and Matt Judge has been his right hand man in negotiations....why should I be excited?
I'll add signing Igahlo from china on deadline day,
12 months later do the same with Cavani
Messing Romero around which pissed the squad off
'Trust the process'
Didn't we also have to pay a good amount to extend Ighalo's deal?
Cavani isn't happy?!
Yeah quite a few million. Not sure he even got on the pitch after it
This.
