This is the most Woodward thing to ever have Woodwarded.You just know Ed is the one who fecked this all up for the execs
The fact that City pulled out before United doesn't give us any moral high ground.I have never been so ashamed to be a United fan: Chelsea and City pulling out. United should announce their withdrawal NOW!
I agree.Not a chance.
They've suffered massive damage from this. The Super League plans we know they've been working on for years have now been stymied, they've suffered massive reputational damage, they've burned bridges with both UEFA and other clubs and they've guaranteed measures will be put in place to prevent something like this happening again.
I get people think it's clever to suggest it was all a ploy that they are clever enough to see through but there comes a point where cynicism is just delusion and conspiracy theorising.
There's no 4D chess here. These clubs have done damage to themselves by botching an attempt at creating a Super League. It's as straightforward as that.
Thank you for ruining everything.So what shall we call the Superleague Exit? Sexit?
A little worrying though, as Glazers might be tempted to sell now their project failed and we could be looking at Saudi owners.
Woodward Out????Hopefully this is the beginning of the end of the Glazers and Woodwards rule at our great club. They've probably been planning this for years and I'm so glad it's backfired. Hopefully the Glazers will start selling off shares soon. They were never welcome anyway but the fans will never forgive them for this and rightly so. They have totally embarrassed this historic club.
Get The Feck Out You Twats.
More like the Spanish governmentBreaking news: Perez still Real Madrid President
The other 18 La Liga clubs have apologised for the mess, and accepted his pardon.
Occam's razorNot a chance.

Ed will stay in the role for 2021.
That can only mean one thing: Ed is overseeing the exit of the Glazer family.
The nightmare ends.
I wish that was the case but realistically a CEO can't just leave immediately, there's a slow transition periodTweet

At lease whatever UEFA was doing didn't put hundreds of teams in various FAs in jeopardy, along with the 10s of thousands those teams employ. One battle at a time. This one atleast looks to have gotten rid of Woodward, 2 birds one stoneThe clubs caved in too soon... i am gutted the corrupt leeches at UEFA get to have their way and come out all saintly from this.
Keep it turned off and we might see the Glazers out as well!woodward has resigned? Angelli too? The feck has happened.
Turned my phone off for an hour, all this happens. I take full credit!
Without a doubt. It REEKS of a Woodward feck up.This is the most Woodward thing to ever have Woodwarded.
They said it pre gameSky have not mentioned the Woodward news. I'd expect it to be breaking on there, right?
Must have given them the Disneyland speechYou just know Ed is the one who fecked this all up for the execs
It's everywhere mateCan we please get a BBC or reliable source confirmation on Woodward resigning!? My heart can't take this
Realistically that's the only outcome unless we can have someone from the UK.Thank you for ruining everything.
You really want that, considering Boris is one of the most vocal opponents of the ESL, and has even threatened state intervention to prevent English clubs from joining?Do Tories next
They are saying that just to try to save face.News is that he was planning to leave at the end of the year anyway.
Ducker has reported it too.Can we please get a BBC or reliable source confirmation on Woodward resigning!? My heart can't take this
He’s gone mate. It’s all over the major news outlets.Can we please get a BBC or reliable source confirmation on Woodward resigning!? My heart can't take this
Simon Stone has reported it, he is stepping down end of season. However I think he was going to do that anyway...Can we please get a BBC or reliable source confirmation on Woodward resigning!? My heart can't take this
Planning to cash in with the Glazers once the ESL was running. Well...News is that he was planning to leave at the end of the year anyway.
If Tories are standing in the way of free market capitalism, imagine how fast Labour would get us back to fan controllership.You really want that, considering Boris is one of the most vocal opponents of the ESL, and has even threatened state intervention to prevent English clubs from joining?
Not necessarily. If the supervisory board accepts a resignation it is done.I wish that was the case but realistically a CEO can't just leave immediately, there's a slow transition period
