But he doesn't.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
We seem to be unable to break free from the Fergie romanticism yet again. The stability he brought during his 26 year tenure. But we have to move on and adapt to the modern game and expectations.
Dave would have stayed
Indeed he wouldDave would have stayed
It will be interesting in here the next few days with the Pep appointment. Expecting about 15-25% of people to change their minds.
Get him in now. No excuse not to at this point.
Changing my vote to yes. But a director of football is the priority.
I've now changed my vote to yes!
We will find a way to screw this up won't we.
If there's a way, Ed will do it.
Do it!
Mourinho v Pep in Manchester for 3 years will be epic.
Bring him in. He's the only one capable of ruining their party
I just can't see this not happening at this point. We'd be mental not to do it too.
Yep
All the evidence post Fergie suggests we are completely mental
Omg pls now - hope the final lot of you are convinced now!
I just changed my vote to Yes. Let's face it, with Guardiola going to City, our only hope left is Mourinho.
Caf goes into meltdown 
I always wanted Jose ahead of Pep, but now that it's official I really think we need to move now and get him in.
Feck LVG, do a City and get it all sorted for the new season please.

Don't underestimate the board. They're capable of some downright stupid decisions.
Only if they thought Pep wasn't going to City, which isn't something they should have been depending on anyway.
Exactly this
Pep has officially gone over to the Dark Side.
Help us Maureen-wan Kenobi, you're our only hope.

Realistically there can be no other choice at this point.
What worries me about Maureen is this seasons title defence, and worse than that how he dealt with it. Did he start to turn it around? Did he totally go to pieces?
Oh and the fact that he signed Falcao after seeing him struggle in the Premier League at United for a whole season. I thought at the time it was either total genius or total stupidity...

On SSNHQ: Jose asked whether he's interested in the United job in view of Pep going to City. He refuses to comment.
Nope, didn't want either of them. So my mind is not changed.
Wish LVG would just leave , then see who is interested who really want the job.
Everyone knows he wants the job. he's been wanting it for ages. Either we should give it to him or bloody well find the next Fergie, but even that will piss every CAF member off coz the New Fergie will take time to win anything.
I'm interested in how you lot will react to his style of football and whiney "deflection" interviews. Never mind the buses he brings to the big games. Fellaini will definitely stay in that case.
I know, ridiculous Maureen love in this place.
Changed my vote. With Guardiola going to City there is no-one else who can compete. We need to be winning now. My objections were based around him being a cnut but lets be honest, he's much less of a cnut than Giggs and 10000% better manager.
Point taken.
But realistically what are our options now?
Stick with LVG?
Go with Giggs?
Go with Mourinho?
or.....?
Get him now!! Between Pep and Mou it is always Mou for me and that's still possible. Manchester derby will be awesome!
Blanc isn't a bad a shout. Pochettino too, but I can't see him leaving Tottenham this summer.
I don't believe our board likes him, personally don't think we'll go for him.
Hope i'm wrong though.
Hope i'm wrong though.
If we change manager by the summer it has to be him, but knowing us we will end up hiring Giggs.
He's disruptive, negative, and a complete cnut. What excuses are you looking for?
As for who? Dunno, Hughes, Giggs, I'd take fecking allardyce over that prick.
