MUST buy Old Trafford

what...again


sorry if posted before couldn't see it

Manchester United Supporters Trust (MUST) has lodged an application to be given the opportunity to buy Old Trafford should the stadium ever be put up for sale.
There is no suggestion United’s owners are looking to sell
United’s world-famous home, where they have played since 1910.
That has not stopped MUST submitting a nomination to Trafford Council for the ground to be registered as an ’Asset of Community Value’. If the application is accepted, MUST would be given the opportunity to buy the stadium should the Glazers ever decide to cash in.

Hilarious

nope it's 4 real....just listen to big Dunc

"A listing reduces the chances that Old Trafford could be secretly sold off
and worse still Manchester United move to a new location, as we’ve seen with
such disastrous effects at several other English clubs - perhaps the worst
example being Wimbledon/MK Dons,” said MUST chief executive Duncan Doughnut.

“We don’t have any reason to assume the Glazers currently have any plans to
sell Old Trafford. However, if that truly is the case, they should have no
reason to oppose this application.”

It's just an application to the council, on some good grounds that may help in the future....

Looks like a sound move to me.

MUST, the independent Manchester United Supporters’ Trust, announced today that it has submitted a nomination to Trafford Council for Old Trafford Football Stadium, the home of Manchester United Football Club, to be registered as an 'Asset of Community Value' under the "Assets of Community Value Regulations of the Localism Act (2011)".
The listing of Old Trafford Football Stadium as a ‘Community Asset’ by the council would mean that in any circumstance where the stadium’s current owner were to look to dispose of it, the Manchester United fan community – led by the Manchester United Supporters’ Trust - would have the opportunity to secure Old Trafford’s future.
MUST believes that the listing will:
· Reduce the chance that, without prior notice to the local council and community, Manchester United Football Club could move to another location
· Protect the stadium’s viable use as venue for Manchester United Football Club for current and future generations
· Ensure it continues as a site for delivering social benefit and community value, both through the continued hosting of Manchester United’s matches, and through the associated community activities Manchester United undertakes
· Help ensure a sustainable future for Manchester United within the community, with the community potentially owning a stake in the stadium
· Provide the opportunity to use the non-football revenues generated by the stadium to support Manchester United and its sporting and community activities
· Ensure that Trafford Borough continues to receive the economic benefits associated with match day activities and the value derived by providing the home to a truly global brand
In its nomination to Trafford Council, MUST set out a number of reasons why Old Trafford Football Stadium qualifies as an Asset of Community Value. Manchester United delivers both social value and community benefit to Trafford, Manchester and Salford, and more broadly as an integral part of the local area. The Club’s history in Manchester goes back to its founding in 1878 as Newton Heath Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Football Club.

sounds a bit far fetched, but I won't be confident this won't happen until andersred's made a full, in-depth forecast of when it will tbh
