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.

Er, we're playing well you tards. Against the most in-form Tottenham who have been reduced to every man behind the ball tactics.
We always step up a gear in the 2nd half, and bus-parkers get tired. Stop being hysterical.

I hear we are looking toothless up front.
We better sort things out in the second half because this game needs to be won. We can't keep throwing our momentum away at such a crucial time.
Cmon United!

Giggs to score the winner.
I think it was a good half.
Vidic is a monster again today.
Rafael and Evra were brilliant.
Nani, Scholes and Fletcher very really good too.
Berbatov is lively but wasteful and Giggs was pretty shit.

Yeah he's been decent but he needs Macheda or even Park playing off him. Him and GIggs are not working.
About 6 months ago, the RedCafe was calling time on Nani's United career, because he was toothless, and crap.
Probably the same people who are Berbahating

Who's commentating with Gray? Isn't whoever it is a boxing commentator? He's bloody annoying me. Giggs fk hits the wall; "united really miss David Beckham".
David Beckham?! Seriously?! Jesus on ice skates!
David Beckham?! Seriously?! Jesus on ice skates!
I didn't realize, although it's not entirely true, Giggs had an effort from free kick.
It's the default setting from some fans whenever we aren't winning.
The realistic portrayal would be that he's been 6/10, much like the rest of the team.
There's 45 minutes to play still. This season, we have been a second half team. When will people learn not to bitch and moan so early in the Matchday Thread?
Evans is losing a lot of headers.
Well we can just hope but in his last 2 games and today he's been piss poor.
Watch him score now though.
Giggsy always gets better in the second half
I would have loved to see Obertan in Giggs position.
A half nullifying Spurs and carving out three, four, five good chances and a couple of almost chances that could turn into real chances. Yeah, we'll get a goal from that if we repeat it.
Ian Darke, annoying cnut
It's going to be another one of those games. Scholes 92'
It's a general point. Giggs may frustrate at times, but it's only because he virtually always looks for a killer ball. There's going to be a high percentage misplaced when you play like that. But he's still our chief creator, if you look at the stats.
You're on your own there.
Yeh, I should have qualified that with an "in open play".
Not that I think we're playing badly - we're not. I've always felt that Giggs struggles when played in that "second striker" position, and I think we're seeing that again today, but if anyone's going to score then it's us.
0 - 0 at HT ... I'll settle for that thus far.
You've mostly controlled possession and looked more threatening, but then again you are playing at home and Spurs have defended pretty well for the most part.
Palacios looks rusty and off the pace for us. But I guess Harry could always switch things around by taking him off, bringing Kaboul on into RB, switching Ekotto to LB, moving Bale up to LW and Modric into the centre.
Hopefully Spurs can still be at least level with 25 mins to go, then unleash Lennon.

Doesn't make the first 49 any less frustrating.
Oh i agree, i love Giggsy hes a great player, get a bit pissed off with his overelaberate flicks at times but hes earned the right to do that.
Spot on. I had forgotten how painful it is to watch games on a stream and Caf.
The reason Ferguson leaves him on is because he can come up with that fantasy ball. He's taken up some fantastic positions and made some good runs today. Not a bad half by any means.
We're a second half team - we'll step it up.
Obertan would be crucified for having his boots tied incorrectly.
He needs his mouth sewing up, numpty. Even Gray is noticeably annoyed by him.
This game kind of reminds me of those three 0-0s we had without Eric late in 94/95. Hope I'm wrong, though. We can definitely create chances. Not so sure about someone making the decisive final contribution in the box. Scholes can't do it every week.
The smooth pitch would have suited him perfect.
I don't see it as over-elaboration. He's always looking for the killer ball. He's no doing it for aesthetics sake.
I dont know who it is but he needs to be fecked off a waste of space and knows feck all about football
Champions ready
wtf. why? Obertans not going to do anything except take up space...
Played decent but, we need to finish. I don't get the angst directed at Berbatov, he's tackled, he has made runs, he's even gone to the wings and been in the middle of the box.
King made a brilliant block and he missed 2 shots from range, at least he is taking them.
We just need to find the finish.
Come on United !!!!

Hargo to score
Nerves are in a bad way
Thank heavens the stream switched back.
I have to admit the dance music was a little too much for 05:50 on a Saturday here.
