Can Sir Jim not just use his own capital as he see's fit and put finance into an escrow account for the benefit of the club and once it gets spent on new players, the benefit of other clubs (hopefully in the UK) this would put less pressure on the fans to put more of their cash in.
I'm no Man Utd fan in fact I'm loving theirs and Spurs troubles just now, but I think those comments are fair, the only thing he has probably done is reduced Rashfords price by tarnishing his reputation.
