- Thread starter scorgasm
- Start date

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.
Fantastic.
Brilliant. Comes across very switched on, good mentality and there was excellent feedback from his first time coaching with us when he had his medical issues.
Let's get Anderson, Hargreaves and Scholes in too. Get the band back together.
Great news this, let the haters rejoice.
Fantastic news..,Absolutely delighted to see Fletch back at the club.I”m sure he”ll be a great addition to the coaching staff...
End of the season: "What does Fletcher actually do?"
He was always really impressive in the way he went about his analysis when on MOTD, Sky and BT so I'm sure he'll be a great addition to the team and a good sounding board of ideas for Ole, Phelan, McKenna and Carrick.
Anyone with their academy knowledge know how the u16s did under him however short a spell it was?
Big fan of this, love Fletcher as a player and as a football man in general,
I think he will be great to have around the current crop of youngsters.

Thats brilliant news, hopefully he can work on attacking and defending corners.
Of all the players that we had in the second half of Fergie's reign, Fletch was perhaps the one who 'felt' most likely to go on to be a good coach. Hopefully that's what happens.
McSauce will learn a lot from him.
Old Boys club 
Why do Carrick, McKenna & Fletcher escape criticism?
Edit; I'm chuffed to see Fletcher back.
We are the Bayern Munich of England.
If only this was true.
The nepotism runs deep, our club is run disgracefully. First Ole, then Phelan and Carrick. Now Fletcher...
Am I doing it right? We're supposed to be outraged right?

Happy with this, seems like SAF's recommendation on retiring is finally being implemented. I like Fletcher because he epitomizes the world ethic that is required of a top team and he would be a fantastic addition if he drill the same into the team.
Excellent news, this. Absolutely love Fletcher. As others have said he comes across really well and will surely have a lot of involvement with McTominay's development.
Great picture of Fletcher, McKenna and Carrick
This makes me really happy.
Fergie's son back where he belongs.

Love this news. We never really know how influential individual coaches are but Fletcher comes across as so knowledgeable.
My time has come !
Fletchageddon back where he belongs.
Fletchageddon back where he belongs.
He's always come across as an articulate and insightful guy, so this is excellent news.
Great news. Another coach who understands the culture of the club and can contribute the development of our players
We've had a great history with Scottish coaches so hopefully this will be the start of something great again..
This just confirms Ole has got full backing from the board and he is here to stay. I don't mind it to be honest.
Love it
Good. Fletchers attitude and work ethic was always fantastic and he always seemed to be one that would be great at coaching.
Are we the only club with the most first team coaches? I have a feeling one of ours will leave searching for new challenge end of this season.
Scholes looks like he enjoys getting together, especially during lockdown
Fletch back in,
Midfield of 3 of Fletcher - Carrick - Donny in the cup please.

Anyone know anything about his coaching merits/style?
Wasn't he touted as a director of football at one point?
Awesome news!
Another club man who knows the standard required from the players. This is vital in a young team where the players haven’t yet been there and done it themselves in the PL.
He’s an excellent student of the game, very knowledgeable and a good communicator, I’m hopeful he will be influential in that coaching team.

Always was spoken highly by his managers and teammates.
It's about time they brought some Flair to the club.Great picture of Fletcher, McKenna and Carrick
All jokes aside I really like Fletcher, think he's the perfect type personality to be a coach. Calm, level headed and thoughtful but also knows what it requires to be a winner.
The way he battled on through his ilness to have a great end to his career was very impressive. Will be interesting to see what his role is.
Still waiting for Rio to come in and fix the defense.
