Rumours of Beckham heading a consortium to buy United. Maybe he's gonna be the face for his Qatari buddies?

Is Ratcliffe a serious option? Could he afford it?

As a United fan I don't particularly care who buys it, as long as they put decent football men in charge of the football side and don't get involved in signings etc themselves.

This club needs 2billion invested in it.

1b on a new stadium.
500m on training facilities
500m on the team.

Eyewatering.

500mill on training facilities!? Liverpool spent 50mill on a brand new state of the art training centre.

United already built Leicesters for around £80m lol

Looking for recommendations for a hotel that is near enough Old Trafford but also near enough city centre?
Heading over in April to run the Manchester Marathon, the start finish line is around Old Trafford somewhere. Will be flying home soon after the race that evening so if I can get a late check out at hotel so I can shower etc so hopefully get a hotel near enough the city so I can get back to Airport without much hassle, but want it also near enough Old Trafford so I don't have a big walk the morning of the race.

Loads of names being mentioned for potential buyers, I see Apple is the latest to be mentioned.

Some of the names mentioned look promising. Apple would be unreal.

Apple would be in it to make money. Probably rename the stadium which would be an absolute no go for most United fans.

I think most fans are resigned to naming rights if it means you get a brand new stadium. I would be.

The Hilton at the Old Trafford cricket ground or Trafford Hall hotel are very close to Old Trafford and both are one side of metrolink stations, only ten mins on a tram into town (Hilton-Old Trafford met stop & Trafford Hall Hotel-Trafford Bar met stop). £6 or £7 in a taxi to town from there too.

Very comfortable win tonight. Casemiro the clear stand out player on show. Rashford, Shaw next best i thought. 1 point off 4th with a game in hand is a decent position to be in after a poor start to the season.

My gripe with tonight was they were 2-0 up after 25 minutes against a very average outfit. Their goal difference is very poor compared to other top 4 contenders so they really should have been going for the jugular to get 5 or 6.

Spurs are playing poor enough at present, but Utd can still give up plenty of chances, the poor goal difference is going to bite them in the bum soon enough

It's pretty obvious utd need a top drawer  goalscorer.  There were a few other great opportunities that a RVN or Rooney would've buried. Problem is the world cup showed up that there is a lack of top quality strikers about. So who do they target.
