Thing about that is, it says that Ten whatsisface isn't in charge. Any manager could see the ladyboy is having a negative effect there, and I'm sure that the Ten man has. But nothing has been done about it, which indicates the powers that be at the rags (otherwise known as the red nose gang) are calling the shots.
Long may it continue.


Amazing how dictators and complete cnuts rewrite the rules for themselves.
Ferguson, Gill and Robinson back as advisors.
Ferguson was a one man show, ran everything from top to bottom. Sold as a strong man in charge :lol: aka bully and complete cnut.
No way would he have been ok with a former manager coming in as an 'advisor'.


Not being funny but if a company did that to me as the have done to ten tpeg , i would tell them where to stick their job.

The very first thing Ten hag should have done when Ferguson showed his face at the club was to tell him to fuck off. You can bet Ferguson himself did just that to the likes of Busby and Charlton


The longer Ferguson sticks around the worse it will get. Ten bob is no mug and he will be off if it comes to a power struggle with Ferguson and the Portuguese. Then they start again and the joy continues[/quote]

Looks like they have stopped splashing the cash on transfers.
Last year Ronaldo was self financing given the money generated in shirt sales, etc... But they did spend about £100M on Sancho and Varane. Both were probably driven by the need to cool things down after the super league fiasco.
Maybe I am jumping the gun here but Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea are stronger and Newcastle are building. That makes top 4 seem like a big ask.
If the revenues start dropping it then becomes a viscous circle of descent that is very hard to break.
Heres hoping.....

Long live the Glazers.
Saw that bloke on sky crying about all the money they have milked out of the rags over the years.
Great owners, to borrow a phrase, their fans should be so so happy.

You have to laugh though don't you ?

In England for the weekend for family reasons and forced to listen to radio 5 commentary, chat show afterwards with Robbie Keane , complete waste of time . Talk crap yesterday awful and all about the rags. The newspapers are awful , Daily Fail Rag mag is worse than having a Rag fanzine . The take on Scouse comback rather than how excellent Fulham played . In the UK you guys really suffer this rubbish.

still have to laugh at the Rags downfall. However i don't think Ciy fans would be cheap as to put a number up (must be at least 10 years now since they won the PL).

the club's status is a joke
i've just gone through their major honours (league, fa cup, league cup, european cup / cl)
they have 40 titles in total
league - 20... baconface 13, busby 5, others 2
fa cup - 12... baconface 5, busby 2, others 5
league cup - 5....baconface 4, busby 0, others 1
cl - 3... baconface 2, busby 1

that's 32 (80%) trophies for baconface and busby! the only league titles not involving those 2 were 1907–08, 1910–11!!

Spot on.

Munich, George Best and 1967.
That is what they built their global brand on.

Baconface and Utd only came to prominence with the emergence of the PL and Sky broadcasting.
Much more than mere coincidence that. I am eagerly awaiting a tell all book but it will probably be after Baconface snuffs it.

Little bit subjective - I can’t remember who said it over the weekend but they said a spot on statement, he’s added goals but made them worse - might have been ratlad

Bang on the money NT, we have a rag in the office (ironically named Nigel).

First started working with him in 2008, nice enough fella seeing as he's from Basingstoke and ive never known him to have been to Old Trafford (but willingly borrows ST from the spurs and hammers fans in the office, in fact went to WHL on Saturday).


Has completely folded as a Man Ure fan, oh its gonna take 5 years for us to be back at the top..... thing is, he's been saying that for a good 5 years now.

Everytime he says it i say to him "Not in my life time" which really irks him as deep down he knows they were and are nothing without Fergiscum, they are finished, period. They will struggle to challenge fort he Wenger cup going forward and then drop further and further.

Another thing that tells a story, is De-Jong not wanting to reunite with his former coach Ten Had.....

They may not have had father/son thing going on but all was fine between them at Ajax enough for Ten Had to pursue him.

So it can only be that De-Jong can see how toxic the swamp has become and the Ten Had is on a hiding to nothing and doesn't want to get stuck at the rat infested theatre of screams with more egos than football players...
