Hardly surprising. And the thin hope that this represents a new approach is massively countered by the fact that United’s board of directors couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery. bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…
I think we must have interviewed at least half of this lot in @netmag. 😂 More innocent/fun times.
I’ve known the Nield family since I was a kid. Nige and Jonny were the ones that got me into football. Their family bleeds United. Alex is the next generation. And this is what the club means to real fans. Time for Glazers, Ratcliffe, and all the other parasites to get gone.
The love and respect we have for @carras16 is unquestionable. He understands this club, what it means to the supporters and what wearing that shirt demands ❤️👊🏼
But I fear the people running Manchester United will destroy him. Under the Glazers and INEOS, another man who loves this club could be left carrying the blame for problems he didn’t create, with nowhere near the support he deserves ⚠️
This club deserves better. The supporters deserve better!
The disgusting reality of letting capitalist vultures get their hands on our football club. Pure greed.
Since 2005 Premier League clubs have had a total interest cost on borrowings and financial debt of £3.5bn.
One club and one set of owners is responsible for 35% of the total.

Hard to see how Berrada survives this too. He’s the ceo of an organisation that has got almost every football decision wrong since he’s been in the building. Apparently hired because he had expertise across both commercial and football.

I see the East Stand £400 a seat (plus a drink at Victoria warehouse) the club touts aren’t selling very well…

You know those seats where the long term ST holders were turfed out for the Premium seats. We’ll surprise surprise they can’t sell them when we’re shite
I went to see Cypress Hill, House of Pain, and Funkdoobiest at the Academy in ‘93. I was 17, obsessed with hip hop, and had one of the best nights of my life. Amazing footage this 👇
Carnivals aren’t what they used to be.
⚠️ This 508t vehicle is entering Cheshire after passing through Talke/Newcastle. Police are holding traffic as it approaches Congleton on the A34.
The 5.8m wide load is travelling from Stafford to Ellesmere Port over the weekend. It is being escorted by police and is moving slowly. Expect delays.
The 96m long vehicle has come from GE Vernova's factory in Stafford, transporting a Supergrid Transformer within a girder frame trailer. It has mant axles to evenly distribute the weight.
Today's route (Staffs):
• Ranshaw Dr to Riverway by Hough Retail Park
• A34 via Lichfield Rd & Queensway passed Stafford centre
• A518 via Lammascote Rd, Weston Rd & Beaconside
• A34 north via Stone Rd
• A34 contraflow passed Stone
• Back onto A34 north at Darlaston
• Continues on A34 via Trentham & Hanford
• A527 & A52 contraflow around Newcastle-under-Lyme centre (via 'Fountains Roundabout')
• Back onto A34 via Lower Street & Liverpool Rd
• A34 from Newcastle Rd onto Congleton Rd at Talke (via 'Box Crossroads')
• A34 into Padgbury Ln & Box Ln in Congleton, Cheshire
• It will stop for the night in the A54 area
Will post tomorrow's route later.
The above info is based on previous moves by Collett from Stafford to Ellesmere Port. The order typically covers Saturday, Sunday & Monday.
The gross vehicle weight is 508 tonnes. It is 96 metres long and 5.8 metres wide. Due to these oversized dimensions it must take a complex route that includes occupying the opposite side of the carriageway.
