If there is going to be a new stadium for Man U, does it mean our attendance record will stand in perpetuity?

What an awful looking stadium by the way. Clubs already become a circus, now they’re going to be playing in one!


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

I'd imagine that Ratcliffe will be drawing up his list of Manyoo staff to fire to pay for a tiny fraction of a percentage of the cost of this new stadium. He might be very rich, but he's not very good at this sports lark (see the recent Americas Cup) and he's willing to do the dirty on anyone, at any time (see the next Americas Cup).

He'll probably try to stiff whichever companies contract to build the place as well.

It really takes work to make a club like Manyoo even more dislikable, but they are managing it.

Have a look at his record in football. Hopefully he will bring a (similarly awful) level to work at Moan U

Don’t forget they’re wanting the tax payer to chip in as well.

The taxpayer will not put any money into the stadium. It will be part of a bigger development including houses etc. The government will put in the infrastructure like roads and drainage to help it all get off the ground

Well according to Sky just now, Sir Jim is hoping for tax payer monies to make it the Wembley of the north and has asked the Government for assistance. This they haven’t agreed to as yet, but watch this space.
