Ogden letting us down with the constant fluctuation of dates, lads.
 
If I had to bet I'd say he's still coming but I don't think these delays are as benign as many seem to insist. Maybe the rumours of Giggs meeting van Gaal will prove as accurate as reports he was to travel to Old Trafford for the last came under a covert mission to 'scout' RVP
 
Ogden has spoken, I'm pretty confident now. Happy about Giggs being offered a role, he can be useful and hopefully he learns a lot from LVG.
 
To be fair, on Sky's Sunday Supplement, Ogden said it would be at least Wednesday or Thursday before anything would be confirmed.
 
So who's going to be waiting in Manchester airport tomorrow? Has anyone checked for flights yet?

Would they not go to him if there's any truth in it? The hold up is from our end after all. Don't see why he should leave his WC preparations if Woody & Giggs can go to him
 
I remember when Scolari got the Chelsea job. I think the intention was to say nothing while Portugal was still in the Euros. But the press kept ruining his press conferences until it was confirmed.
 
Are Chelski cnuts crying that RVP got called over van Ginkel yet ?

Nope, they asked for Demba Ba, Dutch naturalisation and inclusion in the team, because he is the one who scored in CL last 8.

Mark Ogden said he's due to arrive in Manchester tomorrow, where he will hold a meeting with Giggs and offer him a coaching role.
 
How come we've gone from Phil Neville and Chris Woods leaving and Nicky Butt returning to his previous role along with Scholes to all of them leaving?

Aren't we going to sneak him in via private jet? Or the chopper perhaps? That would be awesome. Imagine him hopping out of our helicopter (does it have United logo on it?) wearing a leather jacket, the same which Louis van Gaal used to wear when he was a young man.

Is that picture real? He looks quite cool, in a weird way.
 
You bet it is, mopeds were quite popular back in the day. And that is the cover of a magazine about mopeds.

Still doesn't explain why he looks like Goering on a lap of honour though.
 
Ah Thursday now.

So we've gone from last home game to end of season to Monday to Tuesday to Wednesday now Thursday. And everyone's still cock-sure it's happening? Grand.
Makes sense. Day off for Dutch squad Wednesday. Go to secret location to meet Giggs. Offer him role. Giggs accepts. All legalities sorted out. Announced Thursday.
 
The reaction on here if he signs and then has a terrible World Cup ...
 
This date is constantly getting moved back. There must be some serious shit going on..

Edit - should that have filtered to some stupid Irish version?
 
He'll come out at half time in the under 21s final at Old Trafford tomorrow and sign his contract on the pitch
 
No way Van Gaal will come to Manchester if there's a meeting between him and Giggs (If Ogden's says so then i believe him)

The Netherlands will have a training session tomorrow.......so of course Van Gaal will stay there and the Manchester United bosses + Giggs are coming to him
 
I hope he brings his A game because he is going to need it. We've been turned into a whipping boy for the media this season, one wrong step and they will pounce on him, guaranteed.

On a more positive note, I'm fully on board with him. He might take his time to get it right but I'm pretty confident that he will provide the changes necessary for the club to prosper in the future.
