My lad was 20 when Taggart retired.
I told him there was an entire generation of Man Utd fans who’d known nothing but success, and a whole generation of Liverpool fans who’d never witnessed a league title win.
I said son, it’s all about to be reversed mark my words.
Half way there, keep delivering mancs
He’s also reported to have walked up to the captain of the women’s team and asked her what her job was at the club 
The Athletic had an interesting take on Jim’s past business success, saying INEOS made its fortune turning around under performing business, but Jim’s role was in the analytics not operations side. He identified the opportunities and what areas were underperforming, but then got out of the way to allow his handpicked management team to implement the turn around. They dont directly connect the dots, but the implication is obvious - that is not what he’s done at Utd. It’s almost like in his retirement he’s wanted to have a bit of fun by finally getting into the operations, or maybe in his advanced age he has convinced himself of the story that he was always the hero of these prior successes so is now the right man to turn around Utd. That model at Utd would have been to insert Braislford and/or Ashworth and then get out of the way, but instead he couldnt help but interfere. He now seems to have a management team chosen by their willingness to work with him and let him interfere more than because of their expertise.
The line in that Guardian article @CanuckoLFC posted a few days ago that really jumped out at me was this one
Berrada was poached from Manchester City on the basis of his ability to grow commercial revenue (yes, OK, stop laughing), and appears, like everyone else with any actual reach around here, to exist in a strangely consequence-free bubble.
It had not actually dawned on me what they had done.
The reason they didnt buy the new left back this summer was Berrada told them he just needed to call Etihad Airways and the 100m would magically appear and for some reason they werent returning his call.
No gorm.
I thought we were all thinking “they are shit, always been shit, then won the maanger lottery, spnt it all, now they are shit again… shit shit and more shit…” it is in the manchster anthem.." oh manchster is full of shit.. shit shit and more shit" surely
edit: i was born there. some folk on here think i am full of shit. i just assumed it goes with the association .
I mean, it’s only polite, really.
Saw a clip of Rooney with Goldbridge (it’s been a boom for him) and Rooney was typical mate type comments.
Dreams can’t be buy
Two Yanited look at clouds in sky.
One see trophy, other see impossible dream.
Is same cloud.
Surely Scotty Parker deserves a go for his cardigan game? Do a triffic job on the touchline, may even mix things up with a red tie. Southgate looks more like he’s from a marks and sparks catalogue and Howe wouldn’t be in print full stop.
who bullied the FA and every EPL ref and got many a favorable decision over the years,
this is probably the reason his teams weren’t so successful in European competition as he couldn’t bully UEFA of the refs
Wayne Roonie calling the players selfish babies… 
Fernandes to remain club captain after that interview, wow that is breaking news.
