Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

Most of that money goes in the Glazers pockets. The rest is mispent by INEOS.

1.4b net in the last 10 years, that's slightly more than the Glazers have taken out over the time they've owned Utd. Not defending the Glazers, only interested in money and have ran Utd terribly (look at the state of the stadium, never mind the team), but Utd have spent more than anyone and done so badly. Hopefully it continues.

But .. they could have spent that money plus money spent paying interest & debt, plus money paid to Glazzers

A well run United would have destroyed European football

Exactly. The sale to the Glazers was a terrible deal for the club. They had zero debt and was a money printing machine.

The 1.4bn they've spent on interest and money the Glazers have taken out is the equivalent of a brand new world class stadium. But they're left with the brick hole that is Old Trafford and Ratcliffe trying to get handouts from the government for the circus tent he wants to build. Jokers.

Manchester United co-owner Avram Glazer has sparked a fresh wave of controversy by suggesting that the club does not need to achieve success on the pitch to remain a commercial powerhouse. His comments come at a delicate time for the Red Devils, who are currently struggling near the bottom of the Premier League table.

Glazer prioritizes brand over trophies​

In a move that is certain to further alienate an already frustrated fanbase, Glazer has claimed that the club's financial health is not strictly tied to their performance on the field. The 66-year-old American businessman made these remarks during a rare public appearance at the Deutsche Bank Sports Investment Conference in London, as reported by The Athletic, where he was questioned about the relationship between sporting excellence and commercial revenue.

Drawing comparisons to other major sporting franchises, Glazer pointed to the likes of Major League Baseball's New York Yankees and the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, highlighting how both remain global powerhouse brands despite enduring prolonged silverware droughts.

It's a statement that will annoy many fans but in the business world it's true of many brands where the legend sells the product.
 
He will certainly make them better
But no manager can fix the issues at that club
Too many owners having mixed opinions
The money leaving the club is money that should be invested
The ground is a dump and they will never replace it
Their football leadership are a mixture of very experienced and inexperienced… how did Jason Wilcox become so key to a club of the scale of united…. My guess is he said yes and was repetitively cheap at the time
They have lost who ever they think they are as a club
We’re not dissimilar though but the scale is smaller because there are less stakeholders interfering

He’s not wrong.

He’s just saying the quiet bit out loud.

they are as I said earlier, a worse version of us in every way.

No one can be successful there until they reset expectations, they are not, will not be challenging for anything soon (certainly not the PL in 2028 as they have stated).

Got a feeling that Poch and United won’t work out. Mainly because that club is suck a basket case.

I think they might end up sacking Poch before he has a chance to turn them around. Their squad is so brick right now and its nothing like what he would ideally want for his style of play. I guess he might have already told them that though, if he is there for a complete overhaul then he might do well.
