sad but true. He was hardly Lech Wałęsa |

In any case, what got me at the time wasn't that he didn't speak out, exactly, but more that he actually seemed genuinely eager to support them. He single-handedly turned a decaying mess into one of the world's best and most feared clubs, and then thanks almost entirely to them the club's returning to what it was. They've absolutely crapped all over his legacy, and I wonder if he ever regrets being so enthusiastic about them. It's all immaterial now anyway though. They're not going anywhere, they'll be milking the cash cow until there's not a drop left. |

Not sure where that would have left ferguson - possibly looking for another club - which he could have found with consummate ease. Ultimately, he didn't want to give up the incredible legacy he was creating and tbf to him, he went on to win another European cup and more titles. But it was pure self interest. I can't talk though, I didn't want to give United up because I enjoyed it and wanted to see us win things. My excuse is that I don't think I alone had any influence whereas Ferguls almost certainly did. |

Ole should come out and let us know if he still has confidence in the board |

The thing that gets me though is that united could easily be successful under the glazer model - it’s just that they somehow think a board which has no experience of football and a ceo who also has no experience are the right people to run a football club. It’s an arrogance that defies all logic. |

*Shame the gimps that took over us are money hungry parasites who couldn't care less about the actual football team as long as they're getting their share. |
