The thing that they have to realise is there's three scenarios 1. We get PL money and they stand a chance of clawing their money back - but they need to run the club properly to do that 2. We stay in the championship and they hold out for their 200m but end up pumping in more and more money to maintain a championship club and before long 200 becomes 300 becomes 400 3. They stop putting money in, we slide down the leagues and suddenly they're asking for £200m for a league 2 team. That £200m is dead money. They need to write it off.

If this happened in October it would have been nothing more than a tut and a shake of the head. The fact its happened on the last game of the season has raised the profile of it but ultimately its just the cherry on top of a season of shortcomings in the league.

Id give Ange another season. They sacked Jose before the league cup final and they might soon sack Ange after winning one - its very spursy. As he said himself the club needed a trophy far more than it needed a 3rd place finish.

Crazy isn't it. If there's one way to show that you're not dynamic and adaptable as manager it's that. Surely also a wet dream for opposition managers who know exactly how he's going to set up each week. Managers these days are wedded too much to playing styles when really your philosophy should be to win football matches. Sometimes that's playing sexy football sometimes it's two banks of 4 and hoof it up to a big lad.

Players thrive away from united. Its like a graveyard for players. Its hard to tell the true ability of a player whilst they're wearing a united shirt

A stakeholder is just anyone impacted by what you do so supporters are the obvious one but it would also include staff, sponsors, local businesses, residents that live nearby. In our case its largely irrelevant as they all get equally ignored

Heard he's banned anyone who might be a no vote. Squash the uprising before it starts.

Any plans to bribe waggot onto the coalition with the offer of a curry? He knows where the skeletons are.

Yeah but that's all I wanted them to do - I'm penny pinching. I'd have tried my hand at plastering but the wife made us get someone in.

I'm this situation I default to 'anyone but united' Dire match though, I've had to take a break to caulk a window in the extension.

I see the loss is now £30m a year. Just keeps climbing.

"By transitioning into a lower tier, the club can continue to support competitive football in a structure that is community-based and financially viable, " Why do I get the feeling this isn't just talking about the women's team.

Can the football finance expert tell us when our benevolent owners last sent money over?

The same logic as "if we get £20m for Wharton we could reinvest that in the squad". Scrapping the women's team is like finding tenner down the back of the sofa And it's going straight into waggots pension pot. The transfer budget will be unaffected. That's all assuming it needs to come out of the same pot. It doesn't. The owners aren't skint and they're allegedly fully committed to the club.

The club is for everybody, not just the bits I'm interested in.

Outside FFP, owners committed to the club, no impediment to funding. Something doesn't add up as per usual.

The men's first team is not financially viable either. Close that too?

I'd prefer top 2 to get CL alongside winners of FA Cup and League Cup. 5th place getting it is just silly

It's no wonder our club is run how it is if that's the culture they come from. Absolutely batshit.

Glad to hear it Chaddy 👍

Flash hope and a lack of January transfers.

Was it 7 youth players to make up next seasons 25 man squad? If we're planning on going into next season with 18 first teamers we need to clear out all the sick notes first.

For the next four hours I'm going to pretend we're a normal club that will give it a right good go and I'll let myself get my hopes up. However my head says a limp 2-0 defeat with other results going our way. BBD to score

More likely how cheap they are and how likely they are to kick up a fuss against waghail

That's probably about 500k per player signed.
