He’s whinging again. Is this all he does? How they dare enforce the rules on us. As if we have to pay for our own stadium! We wanted Newcastle’s sporting director than less than what they paid for him and they won’t give him to us, it’s just not fair! Next PL meeting should involve a unanimous vote to get this guy to shut his gob. 

 

Bit weird you just flat out can't buy a player from another club you own.

 

Shouldn't there just be some outside entity that just decides on the value etc? And oversees the whole process?

Froggy kissing the feet of the Billionaire tax dodger already. I give it 12 months until he hates them as much as the Glazers. Such a plastic... which is probably why Racliffe identified with Man U so much.

Brexit Jim also saying it's not good to have a regulator.

 

There's the precise reason why we need one.

Anti regulation…. I mean that might be funny if he wasn’t the UKs biggest chemical manufacturer.

Two or three summer windows, to be like Real Madrid, 

 

what a div.

Maybe he’s hiding in plane sight. He’s actually on about moving from old Trafford to a madrid type climate to avoid the wet roof. 
 

yeah I’ve crunched the numbers, (the accountants came in handy) and I’m moving the club offshore, literally. 

[Theregulars]

Broadly this is great news - he's not serious. We're a much better run club.

Again, not what he said.

You've gone massively downhill with these sort of posts, but I'm here for you if you want pointers on how to improve.

 

I taught you how to play Wipeout, I can teach you not to embarrass yourself on a forum. 

[Guest]

Must have hit a nerve. 

[Froggy]

You would need to do much better than that to hit a nerve with me.

Says he doesn’t understand gardening leave and has yet another dig at Newcastle. He’s clearly out of his depth. He’s treating Man Utd like they are Fulham 

[gbandit]

Why he thinks it’s sensible to alienate and piss off another team this much is extremely odd. He’s doing it with lots of clubs. He’s a total clown

Fergie had his fair share of digs at Newcastle like.  Not entirely sure it's a dig either. He's saying you're being awkward, which you probably are and rightfully so.

[El Prontonise]

It's pretty clear Brexit Jim is someone who just thinks he can get anything he wants done without due process etc.  massive massive cunt.

[Guest]

Sort of see his point about Todibo for example when the likes of Bournemouth, Brighton, Watford, Palace so the same. 

[Tiresias]

I still can't get over the annoyance at the gardening leave thing as if that isn't common practice and offering less than we paid... I get negotiating down our high price totally but to less than we paid what did he think would happen?

[kingxlnc]

Gardening leave wouldn't even be an issue if he paid the bill

Don't blame something completely normal in the exec business world because you're tight

Not sure what relevance Fergie has?

it’s because they are in the same competition. If they weren’t both in Europa league it would be allowed 

[Geordie Ahmed]

Not wanting to pay a high fee for Dan Ashworth is understandable, it's the cry arsing to the press that's unbearable

 

Either pay up or shut up

It’s the offering below what we paid for him while going on tv and expressing that Ashworth is ‘top in class’ etc that gets me. If you think he’s top in class don’t offer less than half of what his current club paid for him then try and paint that club out to be awkward. Cheap bastard

You're saying he's treating us like Fulham because he's having digs at other clubs. Fergie was petty and had digs at clubs as well, including a certain wee club in the North East.

 

The only difference is that we were extremely successful then.

No that’s not what I meant. Sorry I probably wasn’t clear. I meant he’s treating you like Fulham by doing things on the cheap and moaning about gardening leave thru yet more public interviews. Every single thing he doesn’t like he ends up on tv talking about it. Todibo, ashworth Omar, the stadium, staff working from home etc etc

 

It’s Man Utd supposedly ‘the biggest club in the world’ with ever interview he gives the more small time you look. 

 

Also to note Fergie swiftly apologised for that comment 

[Kid Icarus]

I'm sure he'll fully understand what gardening leave is for if any of his staff move to another club and know exactly what Man United plans, transfer targets, structure, training methods etc are. It's unbelievably simple.

I think he's just wanting to fast track everything as we're well behind where we want to be, and it's led to frustrations. The worst thing is that he's very public about his frustrations and comes across quite small time, but I'm sure he'll learn or take a backseat when the proper executives are in place. Hopefully.

 

Regardless, he's still making the right moves in terms of personal and infastructure upgrades, so we're happy with that.

[Sima]

Usually when there is a "fast track" option there is a fee involved.  Not to Jimboy though, seemingly...
