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.
Why is it just accepted in these things that you can't finish an answer and have to sit and be shouted at? Baffles me.
Paxman's lost his touch.
Ridiculous. Bet Paxman isn't so obnoxious with May.
What is the monarchy got anything to do with this? Cheap point scoring.
Being in the presence of Monkman has changed him.
Paxman is finished.
There is absolutely zero journalistic value in this interview.

CORBYNED
It isn't even a question worth answering. May won't be asked anywhere near the same level of questions.
Her facial expressions are just completely off. Mind you, not the first time I've thought she was a complete creep.
Agreed.
I used to quite like Paxman, but was just saying earlier that I think he's a whiney nobhead now.
He's just constantly trying to catch people out, rather than getting valuable information out of them. And won't even let them finish a sentence, as if to put himself above them.

he is not letting Paxman derail him.
great response to the monarchy question.
great response to the monarchy question.Paxmans questions are a bit weird.
"You like jelly don't you! Why is there not free jelly for all in your manifesto?"

Blimey. He made Paxman look silly with the Monarchy stuff.
Go Corbyn
What kind of pointless questions
Balls, I bet he shreds May, not that it will take much. I do prefer Andrew Neil though.
I don't think the VAT on private schools will help tbh. It'll put more strain on the state system as more kids will move from private to state meaning it will be even more stressful for school budgets to cope with more children coming into state schools. It also widens the gap between the rich and poor as a 20% increase is a substantial amount that the richest will pay for but the middle class may not. Idk I don't think they thought this one out thoroughly. But I'll probably be ripped for voicing a different opinion.
Paxman is genuinely struggling with Corbyn here.
I'm very surprised he's done this well against Paxman tbh
Yes, Corbyn answered that very well. He's not going to let Paxman get to him.
Jeremy Paxman's job is to help us sat here at home.
He's failing miserably because he's completely forgot to do his fecking job. Scandalous.

He should shred May considering how terrible she is at answering questions, but it won't surprise me if he doesn't.
I'm used to politicians giving the same answers in slightly different words again and again, not sure I've seen an interviewer do it with the questions.
Not idiotic. Just silly. It's an issue that few people consider relevant and he treated it that way.
If he's going this hard on a personal assination on Corbyn he should be asking why May as a remain campaigner has potentially taken Britain into a depression with Brexit. It won't happen.
Shockingly poor questions from Paxman. Zero on policy, loads on pointless bullshit like whether or not Jez is going to sack off the Queen...
Paxman's main argument seems to why aren't you running a dictatorship?
Paxman's made a career of it tbf.
This is so painful to watch. Let him fcuking speak for gods sake
Paxman's whole purpose is to show how clever Paxman is. Interrupting every makes the whole thing incomprehensible.
Paxman's having a shocker here.
God, Paxman is so annoying to watch and listen to. Grating. Does my head in. He's been awful.
He will. Paxman is misfiring tonight though- trying to be a pantomime villain.
The Falklands.
Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ.
Falklands now. Utterly pointless.
He used to come off clever but he's just left with ramblings these days
Admittedly i've been juggling this with Springwatch, but i am yet to hear Corbyn give a straight answer to any question put to him. I don't expect May to be a great deal better, but we'll see.
