Default How much better is it now we aren't a plc

With regards to transfers? Just quietly go about our business signing players without having to report to share holders. This takeover isn't all bad eh guys.:-) thanks to the glazers chelsea will no longer nick our targets.

Which players have we signed this transfer window without a song and dance? How many have signed before the papers were aware? None. I haven't seen anyone signing a contract yet and we've known for a month who we're allegedly getting.

Give it up toilet, they are done deals. Red tape and international fixtures are the only reason they haven't been paraded - And even then no one has officially signed for no one until July 1st.

Consider the ronaldinho farce for example, it's a completely different kettle of fish.

On one hand not having the transparency of a PLC is fantastic regarding transfers. On the other hand the club's future has been put in serious danger by becoming a private company by the Yank @#%&!s who took us over due to the debt incurred. We have also seen a rise in ticket prices by the new owners to make these signings and pay off the debt which has forced even more normal supporters out of the club.

I just think we look in better shape now we are privately owned when it comes to transfers. Bet fergie prefers it this way.

I guess it depends whether or not you want Manchester United to be successful or for real supporters to be able to go to Old Trafford to watch them.

Surely the reason we won the league was the return to form of Paul Scholes? Carrick made a difference for sure but he wasn't the reason we won the league.

What you meant to say is that despite not much transfer activity and very little spending since your new best mate Malcolm Glazer took over, we won the league. Not because of him.

Stop re-writing history though, did you not realise the Glazer's single handedly won the league for us, I've never cheered as hard as when Joel banged in number six in the last game of the season, I celebrated so hard I bought seventeen sets of MUFC "Get Well Soon Malcolm" Bedsheets.

With all of this "signed in Principle" %@#$&!s I'm beginning to wonder whether "Principle" is a small Cheshire Hamlet close to Mere Golf Course..

We won the league despite last summers lack of purchases..

However, we probably missed out on a European Cup due to last summers lack of purchases.
