Do all of them want to go and work for Mike Ashley or something? No I thought not.

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.
Same and Alex Sammond as well for me. Just have to watch it though.
That's the lineup from hell.
Eh? We've only had one day's market reaction to the vote?
Whoever does bookings is clearly pissed off with the general public.

With each day that passes, the likelihood of invoking Article 50 decreases. Cameron passing the "torch" was Remain's last salvo.
That said, the politicians will probably still go ahead with this ridiculous "democratic" vote and we'll all walk slowly, hand in hand, down into the unknown.

His workforce is mainly immigrants at his warehouses and he doesn't treat them very well.
so is it the same report I got this from? £30bn in taxes sounds ridiculous, if you think sales tax at 20% that's £150bn in revenue?
The mechanical effect of leaving the EU would be to improve the UK’s public finances by in the order of £8 billion – assuming the UK did not subsequently sign up to EEA or an alternative EU trade deal that involved contributions to the EU budget. However, there is an overwhelming consensus among those who have made estimates of the consequences of Brexit for national income that it would reduce national income in both the short and long runs. The economic reasons for this – increased uncertainty, higher costs of trade and reduced FDI – ar
'Kin hell.
Almost all of the experts disagreed with them so there was no credible thinking behind their campaign. It was based on the rejection of everyone who knows what they're doing. They're hoping the EU will throw them a bone because of the trade deficit (despite that argument being built on sand) but that's really the only policy they have that involves gaining sovereignty and not hurting the economy massively. Even that is dependent on charity from an organisation that Boris compared to Hitler, Gove wanted to end in a "democratic liberation" (iirc) and Farage despises.
His comment about the SNP being prepared sounds about right. They're the only powerful party (i.e. not UKIP) not in turmoil and the only one that got a clear answer that it wanted and they have one of the best politicians in the UK from what I can see.

I liked the part at the bottom of the screen too. IDS distancing himself from the £350 million for the NHS claim.
Experts: Don't vote 'Leave'. It'll feck the economy up.
Leavers: Nah, you don't know what you're talking about. We'll fix any problems when we get to them.
Experts: Who will?
Leavers: You experts will. You'll know how to drag us out of any mess. You know what you're talking about.

This is completely and utterly fecking dumbfounding. Genuinely, it's beyond embarrassing, between Cameron ducking out of this and the Leave campaign beyond beyond fecking clueless. Anyone who votes for the Tories or UKIP beyond this needs to get their fecking head checked, insane.
So it seems like the Conservative leaders of the Leave campaign have used lies and more lies to convince the British public to vote for something that they didn't really want and that they have no plan for.
Why exactly should Cameron be forced to do something he doesn't want to do? Let Boris and the leave campaign sort the problems they caused.
Is there any chance of taking legal action against Leave campaigners who lied to the British public in order to influence their vote? Or is that not possible?
Cameron is still Prime Minister. He is staying on until the new one steps in; during the meantime, it should be his job to at least try to show a fecking interest in all of this. Boris and his bunch are utter bastards as well for not thinking this out and not coming up with any sort of plan, too, of course, but if Cameron isn't interested in at least trying to fix this mess then he should be out on his arse right at this very moment. What a bunch of utterly incompetent shitebags. I genuinely think if you featured this in a series of The Thick of It the show would've been cancelled for jumping the gun.
In light of everything I can't blame Cameron for sailing away from all of this. It shows how politicians across the board put themselves before the country though.
If he wants to step away from this then he should step down at this very fecking moment. He is still Prime Minister, and should have a duty to try and do something about this.
I think Cameron has played a blinder here, dropped Boris and friends right in the proverbial.
Boris must be shitting it at the thought that he has to be PM.
I think a number of Tory MP's are trying to make sure he doesn't.
I don't see how Remainer can be in charge.
I'd be alright with that. You're the first that's asked so you've got bagsies.
If that is how it turns out, then so be it. The joy of watching the Leavers having apoplexy will be good at least.
Cheers fella. I'll make sure I'll open a traditional Manc bakery in your part of town and all.
We're sorted for good bakeries. You'd do much better with a fish and chip van. It's my own little dream actually.
What I meant was that the graphs show nothing seismic happening in the last few days. It's just business as usual. As of now, the market isn't anticipating a negative impact of Brexit on the British economy.
There's a long, tortuous road ahead, of course.
Haven't seen much over the weekend - sick of it all
But in summary, what I can gather ,correct me if I 'm wrong
1. We've seen the economy crash - as predicted - a lot more to follow I would think
2. There is no plan - we all knew that
3. No extra money available because it's gone up in smoke
4. The £350m was not the correct figure and this will not be invested in the NHS anyway
5. Brexit was lying about the immigrants
6. Cameron resigned - won't send the resignation letter - in fact nobody wants to , maybe it will never be sent
7. Half the Labour shadow cabinet have resigned, spineless Corbyn in danger of losing the party leadership
8. People now regretting voting leave - "didn't realise what I was doing"
9. Scotland want to leave the UK and join the EU
So everything is hunky dory in the UK, do we congratulate Brexit now or later when it gets even worse.

I think you're in for a shock tomorrow.
I'm actually thinking that Sturgeon could be a good candidate for next PM based on what's happened.
Would folk eat proper fish 'n' chips? Sounds like a cool dream, to be fair.
You do realise markets are closed on the weekend, don't you? We will see what happens tomorrow.
