The fans are right to boo. It's not the players, it's the anger at the state of the club. 2 years of Ineos, same old shit.

The ref has been shit but that was a yellow. That was stupid from Lacey. It's normally a yellow.

It took the Glazers 10 years to destroy the club, it's gonna take twice that to get us out of the mess.

For me the priority has to be tackling the debt and building the new stadium.

You have absolutely no grasp of nuance, dozer, you total pillock

I think what Dozer is trying to say is that he knew everything all along and that everyone else has no idea. What he knows and what everyone else knows changes between posts. - Felwin 31/10/2024

Nah. The Glazers fucked the club from the outset but we just didn't see the effects for 10 years due to them having a massive parachute in Ferguson

Sesko has scored 3 goals in 2 games. We can expect him to ask for a new contract with a big raise anytime now.

The Glazers have no honour, or care for the club beyond what it can do for them. The only hope we have, is that they see they've now rinsed it for all it's worth. We're no longer good enough to qualify for Europe, so revenue is down and the cost of building the squad back up is huge.

The secondary problem though, is that the only parties with the wealth to repair the club are nation states.

The Glazers will likely hang around until Ineos complete their grand rebuild cos it will addd value to their asset and mean they can extract more money. This could go on indefinitely tbf. But yanks & yank private equity are buying into the Prem & Championship in a big way cos they're expecting big money down the line.

The ownership is unstable too though as, correct me if I'm wrong, the Glazers can sell at any time, and force Ratcliffe to sell too. He has first dibs on the shares but Ineos are tanking and reportedly taking a lot of his time and attention.

To make the debt managable and start buying players with money rather than debt, we're likely gonna need the new stadium to be built. If done right it could give us state-like financial power.

But it all feels like a long way off...

This is it. I was thinking the same all game.

Some of you are right to moan and catastrophise, because it's another shit result, but we shouldn't go overboard. I felt weeks ago Brighton would beat us as they're well coached and we are in turmoil. Dozey only had to wait one game to start making out like we're all idiots for wanting rid of a coach who was failing every metric, but there'll be an uptick once we get a proper interim in and keep putting players in their natural positions.

Worst thing about the whole thing for me is that we've written off two seasons through shockingly bad leadership from Berrada and the Rat. It's turned a poor period in our history into the doldrums. Get a coach with a normal formation in, sort a few areas of the squad out and settle the fuck down, make it feel like United again by being positive and promoting youth. The rest isn't important for now.

Yeah, should have taken him aside and had a quiet word in the kid's ear. Not good.
