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.
Burnley giving Chelsea a real go.
Burnley are my favourite non-Utd side. Helps that they have Brady and Hendrick to counter Barton and Gray, mind.
Gary Cahill gets in his obligatory diving interception. 
Really good game this. Fair play to Burnley for going toe to toe with Chelsea.
Chelsea will have to really dig in if they want the 3 points.
Something special from Hazard might save them.

Burnley are very good at home. Nowhere near this level away, I think they only have 1 point away - at OT.
Very enjoyable game.
Burnley are indeed good at home.

Just score worldies against us?
We were all over them until the goal.
True, but ever since Burnley conceded there's been no fluency to your play. They're winning the 50-50s despite having Joey fecking Barton in midfield
I think having that third CB is hindering you somewhat. For some reason it's making it a much more open game.

Burnley are having a great game. I'm not too worried just yet though. We tend to let people come onto us and it can look more dangerous than it is. Then again having said that Burnley should be 2-1 up.
Feels weird having carragher as co-commentator.
Great first half by Burnley. Chelsea looked a bit shaky after conceding.
That was a entertaining half, Burnely did well but can be disappointed not having scored more.
This season everything's fine because there is a positive mentality, other top teams are a bit of a mess, and stars seem to align. But it won't work all the time.
You are effectively 3 points behind Spurs, despite having had an easier fixture list ... so much for "better players and better manager".
If you wish to crow about remaining stuck in 6th place, then be my guest.
Had time to take a touch there.
Another golden opportunity for Burnley, missed.
So close. Would have been lovely
feck! Burnley have bottled it!
Jesus christ.. Luiz is clearly struggling with his injury, we have plenty of cover he should be resting.
What's the injury?
Keep repeating this often enough and you might convince yourself to ignore the embarrassment of having spend hundreds of millions net, only to end up with a squad still sitting in midtable.
I see Conte has fully embraced the chav style. A Strongbow or K cider and a fag in his hand and he'll have it nailed on.
That cnut Aguero did his knee in that vile foul in the City game. He's been struggling with it ever since.
Cheers, didn't realise there was lasting damage from that tackle.
Burnley's defence...
It's foolish to pretend that United don't have a much more difficult set of remaining fixtures compared to Spurs. Of course that doesn't guarantee anything in terms of results, but it doesn't change the fact of the remaining comparative fixture lists.
Come on Glaston.
United for all their troubles are 2 points behind title chasing Spurs.
That's obviously not true. Some fixtures are more difficult than others. To deny it is idiotic.
Alonso's recent goals have apparently convinced him he's a striker now..
Midtable, 2 points behind your own team. Your wumming makes you look incredibly daft at times.
What a hit by Azpilicueta!
Abramovitch should just hire some semi-decent singer\songwriter to make up a few songs for their fans, their lack of imagination is amazing.
We're not in the title race - it's a one horse contest.
As for United, I still have you down for a 5th place finish.
Besides that freak result at old Trafford where we three away chance after chance, Burnley haven't got a single point away from home. It's always been said that you can't stay up on home form - except this year (probably)
What is it that makes teams perform so well at home, but crumble away every single game?
