When the shit hits the fan, and they've got the wrong man, that's Scamorim! (Part 3)

Do you find it weird when you remember Dave Chappelle was in Con Air?

I do.

Who more comprehensively screwed the pooch?

Thomas Midgely Jr., who not only put lead in petrol, but almost destroyed the ozone layer as well by inventing CFCs, or Manchester Yanited?

It’s a line ball.

Good thing our friends and colleagues at Old Trafford didn’t get ahead of themselves…

Google translated for you.
This is a a high quality article. I think you will enjoy much of it. Odd word may seem off due to google, but the article speaks of what you mentioned and much more. It is solid. Take more than 2 min to read though.

I was thinking about this earlier today - if I’d been sent in as CEO of Man United with strict instructions to sabotage them as much as possible, I don’t think I could have done a better job than the dickheads who’ve been running them for the last 12 years.

I love this little chipmunk-looking bitch. Her voice is the worst thing ever, but I don’t need to listen to her to get my rocks off.

Throwback to 2013.
My lad was 19 and we’d been watching Liverpool together for around 10 years.
Some isolated great days out, and during that period the highs of Istanbul and the FA Cup win against West Ham.
But, ultimately we were struggling behind Taggarts Utd and Mourinhos Chelsea.

Then Taggart retired, and I said to my lad, “There’s a generation of Utd fans who’ve known nothing but success, and a generation of Liverpool fans who’ve never seen a league title win, that’s about to change drastically”

Seeing stuff like this, coupled with our recent successes is just the best feeling in the fucking world, and long may it continue.

Ferguson at full time

Puts me in mind if Shelley. I’ll paraphrase:

"my name is Whiskey Nose, manager of scum,
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

At least Leny Yoro is there to build around, she says.

Don’t settle in to that, love.

For a player who’s not had any meaningful injuries and doesn’t rely on pace, I think he has two or three years left to play at the highest level. That said, I genuinely thought he had only turned 30.

Serious question, where do they go now? I don’t think I’ve seen a big club as terminally fucked as United. The debt is monstrous and growing, the squad is shit, PSR is constraining them, income is falling. Stadium crumbling. They are still paying for extortionate, failed signings and they are stuck with a manager who is going to need £200 just to put out a coherent team.

You are Sporting Director. What do you do?

I think what they are going to do is double down on Amorim, borrow 100m to fund him and continue this cycle. Have to spend it on shit players who will want big wages to justify going there.

But for the life of me, when the Manager who has been this abject offers to leave without compensation, you bite his fucking hand off.

The way out of this is for them to accept their station. That’s the first thing. They aren’t a big club anymore. They aren’t a destination.

They need to get in a solid, unflashy manager who will make them hard to beat, and make it clear his job is to keep them in the division.

Make everyone, and I mean everyone, available for sale. There isn’t a single player at the club now who isn’t more useful to them as cash in hand. They might need to bite the bullet on fees and wages just to get rid of some of the shit.

They need to accept they might need five years of lower mid table irrelevance just to wipe the canvas and start again.

But they have got to get their finances under control. That is the first thing. Nothing else is as important as that.
