That is literally the only way this is heading bud. Things are not going to suddenly get better and in fact I think things are going to get worse. I don't think Ole is the man long term but until we change things at the very top not a lot will change.I am honest I only see things changing with mediocrity or worse. A club that stops making big bucks that the glazers no longer want.
Yet we have spent more than liverpool over the last few years! And have a higher wage bill than both Liverpool and City.Also the worst squad I have ever seen in my 20+ years supporting
Does that include ticket prices?Matchday revenue isn't the massive thing it was in 2009. But it's still a massive chunk of the pie.
Business Model
We operate and manage our business as a single reporting segment – the operation of a professional sports team. We review our revenue through three principal sectors – Commercial, Broadcasting and Matchday.ir.manutd.com
£110m. 18%.
Absolutely yeah! I mean... I love a bit of football manager but I wouldn't pretend to know how to run a football club.That's what happens when the people spending the money are accountants playing real life football manager as oppose to football people.
Does that include ticket prices?
It's hard to make people who have already paid for there tickets not going to a game. Last night would have been a decent opportunity. Cold, foggy night. Late kick of mid week. On TV. Playing in front of 20,000 fans would have made people sit up and take notice. In the meantime people need to stop spending money in the stadium. Pies, programs, beer, I am guessing that comes to a decent amount of money. You could try not buying from the shop but I suspect the majority are tourists
The odd thing is the very thing the owners have done to safeguard themselves could easily backfire. When they appointed solskjaer I think in their heads it was a safe option. Wouldn't rock the boat. Would get support from ex players and fans alike. Now it is not going so well instead of turning on the manager I think people are questioning the hierarchy instead
Ole is apparently on £150k a week. Not cheap.
