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.
Spot on.
Can't be arsed to read through the whole thread, not when I live within walking distance of a bridge, but what twats are trying to defend him, and how?
I only had a shitty stream, but seemed to me like he was trying to show that he's a true red?
SAF: I'm not going to go on about this all night. You've had plenty yesterday, and plenty tonight. Why would I want to meet you people."
Where are you seeing this
Get ready for transfer saga. i hope Rooney leaves in Jan, eventhough i would like to see him at united. There is no turning back, he knows it and the club know it.
We will resurrect, we always do. Thats what separate us from the rest. Its sad the way things are going.

Where are you getting all this from?
It was awful my Dad said as he was coming off as well and he was half asleep, the game was that boring.
Do you honestly believe there is no difference to when Beckham etc went versus now?
And Im fickle by stating that his logic is correct even tjough it may not be the real reason? You knob.
Bang on.
Probably the same idiots who slagged of Ronaldo and wanted a bigger signing to replace Beckham in the early days
The weird thing is..Who is doing it? Chelsea haven't actually added any marque names to their squad since the Shevchenko debacle...'Pool and Arse clearly have worse squads than us. City are an anomoly. Madrid are a joke, Barca have basically added one famous player a year and fecked up majorly with Ibrahimovich just because they wanted to look like they were spending...So who is doing it really?
And yet some fans actually think we should be buying loads of people..that it's their right as fans to get these players or that it's what United are or should be about...I mean WTF? I can't believe any of them are over 20 cos they'd have been fecking furious at our squads in the 80s. Plus of course the great hypocrisy about whining about football being all about greed and money nowadays whilst whining that we aren't spending enough money nowadays...

Rooney wants to go to Juventus - he'll never turn down an approach from an Old Lady.
This is all just a terrible misunderstanding. Rooney actually told Fergie he'd just seen Adam Ant leaving a club.
Wayne Rooney and Sir Alex Ferguson have changed their Facebook status from "In a relationship" to "It's complicated".
Odds on Wayne Rooney's next club have been shortened. It's now 8/11 Stringfellows, 3/1 Spearmint Rhino.
After what Rooney's agent has been up to, the Stretford End might have to be renamed soon...
John W Henry has bought Rooney for Liverpool. When he told his manager, "Wayne is on the way", Roy Hodgson immediately put up his umbrella.
Shrek 5 plotline revealed: Lord Farquaad "shocked and disappointed" as Ogre reveals plans to quit Far Far Away.
Ferguson said: "Rooney intimated to me, in his own way, he wanted to leave." Which means he pointed at himself, then the door, then grunted.
The sale of Wayne Rooney couldn't have been better timed, as there's apparently an awful lot of interest in America... going on the debt.
Rooney is planning a move to Real after mishearing that Madrid was "full of lovely Senior Ritas".
"Nice to see your home fans booing you"... You haven't seen anything yet, Wayne.
Rooney was sad to hear of Tom Bosley from Happy Days' death but glad Mrs Cunningham is back on the market.
Rooney's statement was delayed - he broke three crayons writing it

Ok this is what Fergie's just been saying. It's rather interesting :
SAF: "We don't want it to become a saga, we have the team to consider and tomorrow will be the end of it. Important game on Sunday."
SAF: Not intending to suspend Rooney. "What kind of imagination have you got," he tells reporter.
SAF: "Let's put the Rooney thing to bed."
SAF: "It became a long night for us," when asked about the match against Bursaspor and difficulties of breaking down visiting defence
SAF: I'm not going to go on about this all night. You've had plenty yesterday, and plenty tonight. Why would I want to meet you people."
SAF has blown up and hit out at journos after being reminded that he has cancelled his last three Friday press conferences
SAF being asked about Rooney being disrespectful to rest of players
SAF: "I've not the whole of Rooney's statement. I have a
meeting with David Gill at 10am tomorrow. David has spoken to the owners tonight."
SAF: "I don't want this to become a saga, believe me. I have a game to prepare for on Sunday and that's what I want to focus on."
AF: "I wasn't prepared to risk Berbatov, Hernandez because of massive game on Sunday. Scholes and Rio already rested. Good to rest players.
Very very interesting indeed. Wonder what Gill's speaking to Glazers about? Is his transfer all arranged already?

Interesting, Two names on that PL leading scorers list on the left went for the money and look where they are now.
I don't want him to go to City, but it seems most likely they are the club that has turned his head.
You're on fire tonight, Mockney -- I couldn't agree more.
It's depressing enough having Rooney leave (and it honestly came as a bolt out of the blue for me), but to see the way some of my fellow supporters are falling for the most vulgar spin from the Rooney camp is truly heartbreaking.
Is it to much to ask of some of you to be able to understand that while the Glazer ownership is bad for us (short term & long term; in every way), Wayne Rooney going public with wanting away in bleeding October has absolutely nothing to do with the Glazers in any way, shape or form -- it's just a cheap way of trying to spin greed and petulance as something palatable to the supporters.
Even MUST going along this line of reasoning is the cherry on top of the fecking woe-cake for me. Horrible, horrible stuff.
Some howard guy on Twitter. Jouno.
SAF has calmed down, for the moment, but now being asked about future of club
Well the obvious example would be Inter winning the Champions League by signing Eto'o, Sneijder, Milito, Lucio and Pandev.
SAF: "I've not the whole of Rooney's statement. I have a
meeting with David Gill at 10am tomorrow. David has spoken to the owners tonight."
Intriguing
SAF: "Maintaining success is not a certainty at any club. I believe a four-year cycle is the most you can achieve."
SAF: "One point short last season. Been consistent but had to inject youth into club. Policy is to develop players."

SAF: "In the past somebody said Rooney and Ronaldo weren't good enough. I know how to develop young people. They surprise you when given an.

Unfortunately as they are the owners and we have to consult them about as big a decision as this, people who hardly know whether a soccer ball is round or square
But fredthered wants top players Fergie!!!
SAF: ..."an opportunity. We will invest when the time was right. There's no value. We identified one player in the summer." Villa?
and then
SAF: "We get loads of calls/emails every week about players who want to play for Manchester United. Sometimes you see a cow in a different field and you think that cow might better than the one you have but doesn't always work out that way." We lost title by one point."

Forgive me for asking, but whats so intriguing about that quote? All it suggests to me is that they might try and offer Rooney what he wants - I would've guessed they'd do that.
SAF: "We have a good structure, the right staff, the right manager, brilliant chief exec. Not a single thing wrong at Man United. Goodnight"
Welcome to the big time fella. You just got promoted to the big time.
Just in case it hasn't been posted yet

300k a week, new players and Spanish prostitutes?
Anyway :
And he's gone. Fascinating stuff from the great man. Sharp hair cut too from the 68-year-old Scot who finished in rousing style.
Perfect response to the little git.
As an aside, what a pathetic excuse of a man 'the boy' has turned out to be.
England's great hope, a true football fan's footballer who plays with his heart? No, just another greedy spoiled brat who thinks concepts like loyalty and honour are only worthwhile when they involve inflating his own ego.
Big Man Mk. II.

But fredthered told us that Gill is a fecking liar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop defending Rooney. It's not about signings, it's about money. And don't forget: In the last few years we have missed out on ONE trophy. It's ridiculous to claim that the club lacks ambition, if somebody shows lack of ambition, it's R**ney.
Class.
Has become? How many times has he cheated on Coleen in the last few years? Who once used to claim 'once a Blue, always a blue'? I've always had a problem with that and I honestly think that a player who treats a former club badly will treat us badly, too. If you meet a girl or boy who is cheating on his partner with you, be very afraid, because chances are he will do the same thing to you one day. It's the same with Everton, Rooney and us.
Other than that your post is very sensible and interesting, albeit I don't think there's any excuse for R**neys behaviour.
Almost missed the white text.
Yes, it's only about pounds.
Don't get me wrong, I do think that we SHOULD and HAVE TO reinvest some money because to create world-class teams you need world-class players. But it's not like we've missed out on trophies for two decades or haven't spent any money since ten years.
I would understand someone like Torres if he got fed up with his clubs' transfer policy. No good transfer policy, no Premier League trophy for about two decades, etc. But the same can't be said about Manchester United.
Great post, Mockney. I usually don't agree with you but this post makes really for brilliant reading. Some people should print it and put it over their Rooney shirts.
Or maybe a transfer has already been in the works and the owners have to give a go ahead. It is rather intriguing. You might be surprised tommorow.
fecking hell SAF. What a top man.
Where are you getting all these quotes from wr8?
SAF revealing that Gill has met with the owners and he's meeting with Gill himself in the morning, after having already said the matter will be put to bed tomorrow? If you don't think that's intriguing then you can't carry much interest in the topic to be frank.
