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.

I havent seen Space Jam.. i dont get it 
I hope Pogba gets a run out, I've been hearing good things.
He hasnt even made the step up to the reserves and isnt a starter for the academy when they put out their strongest team so it would have been a very strange one if he was involved

Should have used my countdown...
That site is class, how did I not know about it sooner.
Only likely reason is that you've had me on ignore for about a month.
Top, is there any possibility to have that clock permanently on the top of RedCafe, something like we have site announcements about podcasts? Or something you'll invent?
It doesn't even need badges, just opponent, home or away and countdown.
PS. And when that site with MOTM stats is finished, to have a button on the top?

Definitely possible. It's a simple database extraction and then a bit of java script - implementing it on the Caf wouldn't take long.
Niall has got a lot on his to do list at the moment though, and he won't be making modifications to the site for a while, so it'll have to wait a bit.
Space Jam is on ITV1 now.
You're joking, aren't you?
Ooooo yessssss!!!!!
Sorry, but I have to laugh.
Best non-Oscar-winning everrrrrrrr!!!!
Space Jam is my childhood. Seriously.
Dont say that. I feel very very old now.
It'll be interesting to see wether Bebe or Obertan is playing just behind Hernandez as Ferguson seems to have them both down as strikers.
I'm hoping it's Bebe from an inside left position with Obertan playing in support in a 4-3-3. (I just can't see Ferguson playing 4-4-2 despite what he said after the Southampton game.)
The fact Gibson is playing is painful as we need players who are going to fight to get the ball and have the passing ability to retain it because these Crawley boys are going to be running around more today than they have all season. An early goal and we'll romp this, the longer it goes on the more worrying it gets.
It's naive to think that we'll definately ease to a 5 or 6 nil victory because quality can be easliy made up for in hard work as we have seen time and time again. If they play spoiling tactics, tackle hard, chase lots, men behind the ball, bypass the midfield, keep it narrow then we might not get much chance to play Football.

99% sure Official team
Lindegaard
Rafael
Fabio
Oshea
Brown
Gibson
Anderson
Carrick
Bebe
Oberton
Hernandez
Is the team,
The lad on RI who works with United has posted it up - he has never been wrong.

We'd (hopefully) destroy them with that team.
Great team. Obertan and Bebe will probably be frustrating to watch though.
The question is... want Fergie postpone Chelsea game or not?
So, O'Shea and O'Range centre halves?
Its what fergie said yesterday
"We'll play all the players who were involved at Southampton in the last round," added the boss. "Bebe will play, so will the two da Silvas, Brown, O'Shea, Chicharito. We're strong in midfield with Anderson, Gibson and Carrick all available."
Didnt expect all 3 midfielders to start
was hoping one of the youngsters would get a start alongside 2 first team regulars in the middle
If we can get a decent lead in the first half, maybe the youngsters can come on in the second half

Should still have enough for Crawley. First choice right back playing, internationals in O'Shea, Gibson, Carrick and Chicharito. True that Brown hasn't played that much this season, but it wasn't so long ago he was one of our first choice defenders. Anderson has played well the last few months. The only frustrating ones could be Obertan and Bebe, let's hope they impress and of course, the new keeper Lindegaard also.
Thanks, just what I wanted to see.
team confirmed: Lindegaard, Rafael, Fabio, JOS, Brown, Gibson, Carrick, Bebe, Anderson, Obertan, Hernandez

According to Daniel Taylor
Team is not a surprise, what I'm really interested in is the subs
Any word on the bench?
Daniel Taylor is hardly a reliable source
He is just copy pasting from the RI thread

Glad to see both twins starting, should be entertaining. I expected PIG to play, but probably better for Lindegaard to get games as he's going to be here next season and PIG is not.
feck thats a strong side. Poor Crawley. SAF really doesn't want a replay does he.
nice one
thnig is though when you look at the team, there's lots of youth/inexperience there. I think we'll definately see changes, but it depends on how strong our position is you'd imagine in regards to number/how long they get.
....or from this thread.
Hi Daniel Taylor if you're reading this you're a despicable blue cnut
I don't know who is worse on the right side, Bebe or Obertan. I would have preferred Obertan behind Chicharito and Bebe left.
