The Glazers and Woodward need to step to the side and go and poach the guys who structure these top super clubs get the best in the business in and let them build the football side all they need to do is give them the budget. This is the budget for yr 1, yr 2, yr 3 etc go and rebuild this club let Woodward focus on bringing the money into the club and let the guys with proven track records organise the football side of the club.

You know things are bad when the clubs putting out statements these all sound good but why don't you tell us what you've actually done who's in charge of all of this what are we doing different now to 5 years ago. Is the bit about not buying players based on their commercial value an admission that they did it in the past?
As for the investment in the squad lines this is something that will always be on going but you can't hide the fact that more money has been spent paying off debts and paying the owners than has been spent on players in the last decade.
