In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

Yup there was 1 replay. Was a really harsh pen. Would have been furious if that was given against my side
Am I watching a different game? Everyone ripping the referee for giving two correctly awarded penalties?
England were comfortably the better team and did all the football (albeit very little). Kanes goal was onside, good peno by Raheem. Might also put to bed the myth Foden should be benching Bernardo and David Silva. He's a good player with high potential but has a long way to go.
Roll on Premiership.
Rather watch grass grow at Old Trafford than such dire and pointless internationals.

Did you not see Kane's perfectly good goal ruled out in the first half?
Why was Grealish not put on?
Just watched both penalty episodes -i think technically they re both incidents penalties.
Icelandic defender was unlucky, Gomez simply stupid.
Re Southgate - don't put all blame on him.
It is very difficult to motivate a group of highly salaried individuals to play in such a pointless and useless tournament.

That penalty resembled a child of 6 years in a garden kick-about against his dad.
Blade 23 is having such a fantastic season, tremendous growth, but still a way to go until it catches up to Blade 4233. Miracle-gro has been a fantastic signing and will go down as the bargain of the window. Been a major influence on all areas of the pitch.
There are no conclusions to be drawn from what is effectively the first pre-season game for many players. Fitness was clearly an issue for both sides as the game wore on. This is the strangest international break in a long time.
Couldn’t have scripted a luckier win for England. Walker is on thin ice seriously
Under current rules that's a penalty. The second yellow card was very harsh though.
International football outside of tournaments is fecking shit
What a shocking game.
He'd be comfortably the best midfielder of all the players on the pitch. Clueless from Southgate.
Yeah getting a goal wrongly ruled out for offside was very lucky for England
Gibraltar beat San Marino. Wow.
I know, but we were so close
It really is like Man Utd vs Rushden & Diamonds, and we almost got a draw. I’m much more relaxed now though
Ahh you’re an Iceland fan. Fair enough. I understand the passion.I know, but we were so close

Crazy last few minutes to the game. Was tough to break down a very disciplined Iceland team, but I think this is where we lack a deeplying playmaker.
That said, I think if that Kane goal isn't disallowed, then we probably go on to score more.

Ashley Cole the Pundit!
bit like England’s performance....

You could see why I really don't like Hamrén. Walker gets sent off and what is the plan? Exactly the same, not trying to win one bit just not lose. Put on Emil Hallfreðsson on who shouldn't be near the squad. 36 years old and without a club.
Victor Pálsson was very good, that's about it.
England's midfield was shocking. Slow, little movement. Whole plan was to give Sterling the ball and watch him play. Kane tried a bit and had a goal wrongfully disallowed. Sancho did nothing.

Bit pissed Martial isn't starting, especially given France are going with two strikers. Hopefully he'll get some minutes tonight.
It's a struggle watching a lot of these England games as it is, let alone behind closed doors.
Just about worth it for the tournaments which are still great to watch.

Harsh on a country where there are probably more professional footballers and football pitches in Essex than there are in
the whole of Iceland.
The failing was on a team full of professionals playing in the most organised league and infrastructure in the world looking clueless and resorting to desperate challenges
Was that a wonderful win then?
There was never an offside. VAR would have made that count.When was that? Oh the offside that was given! I guess that counts then
Is it? Not sure what the new rule is, and if it came out recently, but as per the earlier rules, that wouldn't have been a pen.
He could't have reacted faster, his hand was within body frame and not really flung out.
It was a pen. 2 replays nota bene. You should be furious if it were your team because Gomez was as dumb as Walker there.
But it didn't and it wasn't a 'goal'. End of, no ifs and buts
Kane did everything right and scored. Not his fault that the ref made the wrong call.
Iceland deserved a point and England got really lucky. I am not sure it is a pen for them.
Then of course they miss the one they got too.

Walker fearing that his England career is over, that was quite a strange interview.
It was odd.
International friendlies need to be scrapped, plain and simple. For all the talk about pride, the players don’t want to play these games and people don’t want to watch them either. Painful for everyone apart from the Dave nugents of this world who get their sole appearance in a meaningless and forgetful game.
I’m actually surprised in today’s era where players have insane insurance taken out on just a single leg that they still allow these games.
How are international teams supposed to prepare for tournaments and qualifiers? Why not have clubs not play friendlies before the season starts as well then?
Spot on.
I didn't even realise England were playing until halfway through the game.
Not interested one bit. This will all be forgotten about next week.
