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.
My thoughts exactly.
As long as he plays his heart out, I couldn't give a feck, I'll support him.
Some of you lot in the thread are well weird.

wow! So hero again, Id like too see what a lot people slagging him all these days have to say now..
Good call.
Oh please? Him and Cashly and Terry can all argue over whos the biggest bastard
Terry, Cole or no other player in the Chelsea squad has ever pulled a stunt like this - Drogba likes to moan but is a decent individual off the pitch. When has John Terry ever disrespected Chelsea fans in such a manner, or moaned at England supporters?
He gets more money from a transfer fee than from a Bosman.
For once I agree with you.
Hayley on SSN. 
There's no denying that's he put all us fans in an awkward position. I was ready and willing to hate him for the rest of my life but at the end of the week he's only gone and pissed on the parades of some City supporters who thought they were about to officially usurp us.
Now, when does he take me out shopping?

It's not in anyones interests to let his contract run down, least of all Rooney. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want 18 months of rotting on the bench/being a bit part player, imagine what that would do to his stock.
Always thought he'd re-sign, great to have you back Wayne
The people saying everyone is just accepting him with open arms are fecking idiots and are choosing to ignore the many, many posts that state the exact opposite. Cynical pricks.
Boss, Boss, wherefore art thou Boss?
Come up with another emotional quote so that the Sun can jump on it, son

Have you stopped to ask yourself why Sir Alex looks so happy that he's staying?
Again: Agreed. I was always of the opinion that we should maintain a reasonable wage structur and that we shouldn't even try to match ManCity's or Chelsea's wages. Now with Wayne throwing a tantrum and getting what he wants other players will also want a pay rise and understandably so.
This whole saga had one message: Insult the club, insult the manager, insult your teammates and it will result in a huge pay rise.
You are another idiot who knows nothing about football.
I doubt you have ever been to Old Trafford.
I honestly don't think there is, all the players care about (most of them) is the $. He was willing to hold the club and the players ransom to meet his demands. Shows what an utter cnut of a person he is.
That we still want him to feck off, seems to be the general consensus.
he's still a twat
Granted they havent disrespected the club, and to be fair I actually quite like Drogba on and off the pitch, but to deny that Terry is a complete cnut of the highest order is ridiculous
Oh please? Him and Cashly and Terry can all argue over whos the biggest bastard
To be honest the only one in the current England squad that hasn't thrown a fit about a contract has been erm ... erm... Kevin Davies???
Same.
For those of you accusing people of making u-turns, someone said you should name and shame. YOu really should you know because most of you levelling this accusation are doing it without any proof having decided to blur 100 posters into 1 to substantiate your accusation. For my money, there are two camps:
1 - those that decided he could go
2 - those that cried that he was going
Group 1 is today the unhappy group, feeling like they have been made a mug of by Rooney and his agent.
Group 2 is the euphoric group who don't have any prinicples.

would like a poll..
£180,000 is quite frankly a joke. And if it's true the club has been held to ransom and has caved in. It was always about the $$$$$.
I'm disgusted.

Try sticking to the subject instead of showing what a top red you think you are.
apparently the balaclava wankers from last night have been on the radio claiming he's staying because of them
People need to stop with the whole "double his wages" thing from this, if anything he only(lol I hate saying that in this sense) got a bump of about 20k from the initial offer in August.
And this City deal "being done" shit is very interesting, if that ever ends up being remotely confirmed, and he did a u-turn on what they would of offered, anything from 240k-300k before image rights, he deserves some credit, even if it's very very little, but to take 60k less to stay here is loyalty..........isn't it? It took making Gerrard the highest paid player in England to keep him, then it was the same deal with Lampard..Rooney is what, like 3rd highest paid in Manchester from this? -_-

There was a contract on the table from the start, it didn't change because of this.
I know. It's embarrassing. Accusing people of 'praising him like he's Jesus'. Er, where? Noone's doing anything of the sort.

Hayley is the bomb.
Terry just does it privately with the media wrapped around his finger, until his activities turn up front page in the Sun.
It would be interesting. As far as I can see, those of us who were disgusted with him and wanted him out, still feel the same way.
So much for "trust in Sir Alex"
Why won't any of you learn, wait and see what happens.
A lot of the people here continuing slagging him off without keeping an open mind are just stubborn as you now look rather foolish.
Rooney has hurt EVERY United fan. He has to win us ALL over.
Lets see how it pans out and the ins and outs of this new contract before we start deciding things eh...

This and nothing else, thats what it was all about from the start
Some sense at last.
I'm a bit... hmm. I.... hmm
I don't know how to react to this, i'm happy he's staying as he's a very good player, but angry that he's staying because he completely pissed all over the club and the players with that statement he released.
The only possible thing that could make me truly happy with him again is sacking that twat Stretford and getting Gary Neville as his agent.
