I see Barcelona have stepped into the Bruno Fernandes transfer story....is Woodward just completely shit at this?

Impossible to encourage better players to a club sitting mid table, you only have to look at the players Souness and Roy brought to Liverpool

I thought it was simply a case of United throwing as much money as they liked at players and they'd join no matter what?

If a player is interested in playing the CL then he'll look at those teams in CL, if a player wants loads of money he'll go to Utd if the other big payers aren't interested.

It's back to the big Ron days! Flashy club no winners

A myth not even Ferguson could always get who he wanted for example Ronaldinho,Shearer went elsewhere but like Klopp now at Liverpool he had good recruitment that meant more gems than duds were signed. And yes Woodward is completely shit at this.

The player has agreed personal terms with United. United are stalling on the asking price. Apparently Sporting are cash strapped and need money ASAP and the banker is playing hardball. Looks like it may be backfiring.....not that Woodworm really gives a sh1t....

I always thought people desperate for money didn't play hardball!?

Unnecessary haggling by Woodward, and now has come with increased offer when Barcelona declared an interest and a offer that Sporting seem happy with.

A deal that should have been done at the start of this month and then focus on bringing in another two players during this window.

Woodward is an investment banker. He wouldn't be let anywhere near an intercounty hurling team yet he is right at the heart of things in one of the biggest soccer clubs in the world.
It's dangerous to be innocent cos you're the victim every time.

Seems it's going to happen tomorrow at long last. Could have done with him a few weeks ago but anyway, better late than never. Still need two more at least.

Yes seems it is happening after all.

Be interesting to see if there are any more before window closes. Really need at least a striker to cover for injuries.

Disgraceful behaviour if this is true. Attacking a man in his family home over bad decisions he has made at a football club is idiotic behaviour and sets a dangerous precedent. If the chants about hoping that he dies weren't bad enough this is taking it to another level.

Hopefully like these fuckwits if caught they'll be charged and banned from all grounds

Both sc**bag acts and hopefully, justice was and is served but why the need to trawl back to previous events involving another team is childish, whataboutery, and bordering on obsessive. Maybe I missed it, but did you post about this when it actually happened?

Manchester United have released a statement saying anyone identified will be punished by giving them a free season ticket to Old Trafford for life.
When you think you're fucked you're only about 40% fucked.

Jeepers Creepers

Stupid act but did I not read earlier in the week Woodward had asked Sun journalistS to do a bit of PR for him? And who is first to break the story?

Liverpool fans coming onto the Utd thread posting up stuff that other supporters have done already last year, and I'm being obsessive? Christ the night lad wind your neck in, the things are very much related (flares and smoke bombs being thrown dangerously)  I've expressed that they be banned and charged just like they were asked to be by another club back then.

No trawling either it was all over the news back then and no one really gave it a mention, but this has, strange obsession that.
