They claim to have recorded a record quarterly profit,new tv deal etc etc and nicely played they put schweinstieger back on the books having written his value off last period.I cant see how without creatively reporting their books,how your debt increases 30% after a record profit.I am so glad even with all his faults we have Levy¬ fenway or the glazers.Trust them I do not.BREAKING: @ManUtd's net debt as of December 31 increased by £87.2m to £409.3m.
All because of brexit apparently and the £ vs $,
nothing to do with signing a load of shite,not getting in CL again,paying off another manager.etc etc etc,nice bit of alternative fact reporting by united there.

I agree, or Randy Lerner for that matter. Things may change quite quickly after the new stadium is completed though. I wouldn't be surprised if after 1 year, with season ticket sales in NFL established and the new TV money, plus naming rights and sponsors sorted, we have new US, or Middle eastern/Asian owners unfortunately. Joe Lewis is 80 now and whilst he doesn't need the money (he's worth $5.3billion) I wouldn't be surprised if ENIC cash in. The club is likely to be worth around £600-£700m and in great shape on and off the pitch. They will make an enormous profit.

Just imagine if Trump bought them. They'd be in the "black" with all their alternative facts.

One of the good one's is leaving......to take the money. Can't blame him, although one red card in the wrong place and he might disappear for good...??
Mark Clattenburg is to quit his job as a Premier League referee to take up a position in Saudi Arabia.
The 41-year-old is widely considered to be one of the best referees in football, and he took charge of the Euro 2016 final, the Champions League final and the FA Cup final last season.
In December, Clattenburg said he would consider officiating in China.
He is expected to leave his role before the next round of Premier League fixtures which starts on 25 February.
The referee body, Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) said he had been "a great asset" and "an inspiration to those who want to get into refereeing".
Its statement added: "We understand this is an exciting opportunity for Mark, and it further underlines the high esteem for English match officials throughout the world game."
Clattenburg took charge of his first Football League game as a 25-year-old in 2000. Four years later, he was promoted to the Premier League's Select Group.
Unusually for a match official, public attention has often been drawn to his life off the pitch.
In 2008, Clattenburg was suspended following an investigation into allegations he owed £60,000 as a result of a failed business venture, and he later had his elite referee status revoked.
But at an appeal in February 2009, his punishment was reduced to an eight-month suspension, backdated to August 2008.
In October 2014, he was dropped from officiating for two breaches of protocol - speaking on the phone with then-Crystal Palace boss Neil Warnock, before leaving a ground alone to drive to an Ed Sheeran concert.
PGMOL says officials must travel to and from the ground together for integrity and security.
And last summer he got two tattoos to commemorate refereeing the Euro 2016 and Champions League finals, and the Guardian reported he had a car with the registration plate: 'C19TTS'.
In an interview with Associated Press in December, he said he did not understand why "people see [the tattoos] as a negative thing", adding: "I'm proud of what I've done."

Gotta commend Mourinho for his respectful 'homage' to Claudio Ranieri.
He expressed kind words for him in an interview, in a tweet, & had Ranieri's initials on the shirt he wore at his pre-game presser.

I'm afraid Skiathos is bang on above. Mourinho is a nasty bastard, he has in the past been serially unpleasant and demeaning of managers he has replaced, ridiculing Ranieri in particular. Nice gesture yes, but a very easy one for him to make, I suspect Ranieri knows him better.

Although I want Leicester to go down I'd be chuffed to see them take all three points at Anfield. Would put us in a strong position.

I like the look of Demari Gray when he comes on for Leicester. Seems pretty quick, skillful and a strong lad too. Good result for Leicester, and good for us too. With the scourers playing the scum this weekend it means we can create something of a gap between us and either one of them.
