So you think what they said about Rooney is too?
BBC: United hold talks with Mourinho

I don't believe the Red Issue stuff, I think it's as simple as Mourinho not being able to take the job until the summer and Woodward being either unable or unwilling to give Giggs the job until then.
Maybe it's a bit like the press. If you keep posting rumours you will eventually hit the nail on the head?
Exactly! I can't see it myself but all the bloody women in my office go nuts for JoseEven the conservative gals
My mum's the same, and she's only seen him on Gogglebox. "He's like Gene Pitney," she warbles. Something's gotten hold of her heart.
These tweets makes Fergie look like Frank Underwood rather an ex-football manager tbh.
RI have disliked Ferguson even when he was the manager, so I think there's bit of a bias coming through in these reports.

If you look at it like that, we may as well not look at anything any journalist or any form of media produces.
This shit is hilarious. SAF waiting by the
He definitely has something. The George Clooney of football.
I feel I may need to take a sabbatical from Manchester United at this rate, for my sanity. Although the apathy is near complete.
feck it. First bit of entertainment all season

Whilst I strongly agree with you, I also understand SAFs motives. I doubt it's simply for power, moreso because he invented the Manchester United algorithm and is aghast with horror at just how badly we are fecking it up. His instincts are telling him that Co92 is the best way to regain our former position and is doing everything he can to make that happen.
The other interesting thing is the Moyes angle. I think its crystal clear that SAF wanted Moyes because he thought he would be his puppet. But then Moyes decided to screw SAF over by taking his own decisions .... ie: sack all SAFs support staff and abandon all the transfers that had been lined up. Unfortunately Moyes also failed big time, so by the time choice for new manager came, SAF was locked out and has been ever since.
Of course the problem is its not his right to do so, its not his job, and he should not interfere. But I guess that easy for me to say as I did not invest the last 26 years of my life creating an unprecedented sporting machine only to see it hit clusterfeck the day i left. So I think SAF is totally in the wrong, but its easy to understand why.
I guess the C is silent.
Red Issue HQ:
"Hur hur let's invent some rumours and wind up those softies at RedCafe."

RedCafe should tweet the collection of conspiracies we come up with here. That's all Red Issue have done. They've an agenda against Ferguson, Woodward and the Glazer's for different reasons so just so happen to stumble across a theory that makes Fergie, Woodward and the Glazers look bad. Fancy that.
So popular they don't even have their own domain-based email address '@btinternet.com'

If you believe that Red Issue bollocks, the Man Utd hotseat is practically the Iron Throne, ffs.
That is probably why I think the club are defiantly going for Mourinho, especially after how big of a disaster Moyes and VG have been
Things are so flat that I blame our Ironing Board.
I don't necessarily believe this, but having two boards with likely two completely different ideas about what is good for the club could lead to problems.
I don't know where this 'Fergie hates Mourinho' argument/point comes from. Sir Bobby I can understand but I doubt it's case with Fergie. I remember him saying that he sees himself in Mou. There was a series on football's best managers in 2012 and in episode on Mou, Fergie speaks extensively and glowingly about him. He points out how Mourinho improved work ethic of Galacticos at RM. When asked if he sees Mourinho managing United one day, he says, "Jose can manage absolutely anywhere."
If Sir Alex was so power hungry he would never have retired.
Such bullshit.
Such bullshit.
"Like that juicy piece of gossip? Sign up now for just 15 pounds to get more"
Except in this case, the one board has no power over the club, and the other group includes the CEO, Commercial Director of the club. There's no clashing between the boards. If we even believe RI's tweets, they clearly say that Fergie and Gill have been left with little or no power.
So we what can we come up with from those RI tweets?
I came up with Woodward is a pussy, despite having the power he doesn't know what to do with it. We don't need RI for that.

In the end it's the Glazers who will decide. Hopefully Emperor Fergustine will not Jedi mind trick them.

That is the one thing we know is true. He now has to grow a pair.
Have we turned into Harchester United?
That RI are fecking idiots who are jealous of Recafe's standing as the biggest United forum on the internet.
Wish we had Roy of the Rovers, at least we might score a goal or two.
Yes and CO92 brand for managerial position holds no ground among supporters. Just a scan of social media comments shows that very rarely any fan asks for Giggs to replace LvG. Surely club can see that. Any survey anywhere will overwhelmingly be in Mourinho's favour.
Not really a fan of Woodward at all, but wonder if he's trying to give Van Gaal a decent exit and is, amazingly, showing some balls by not pulling the trigger?
Expensive display of generosity though.

Even the sir Bobby said comes from one particular interview. For some reason, it is now taken as fact that the sole purpose of the existence of Sir Bobby is to veto the appointment of Mourinho.
Yeah, I can't imagine SAF going through a whole ruse of stringing Mourinho along for 5 years by praising him again and again in an attempt to hurt him by not offering him the job 5 years down the line. Imagine SAF sitting there plotting for 5 years on how he'd humiliate Mourinho. The thought is simply too stupid to believe. There's clearly a mutual respect between the two.
SAF is pretty open in general about who likes and doesn't like. If he didn't like Mourinho I'm sure it would've come out at some point.
Exactly! I can't see it myself but all the bloody women in my office go nuts for Jose
Jose would also attract the stars that Ed seems to covet. Unfortunately, Ryan wouldn't.
My missus is pretty religious and even she'd get her minge out for Jose.
I think he actually has very little choice. Mourinho won't start before the summer, Giggs doesn't want to be interim again, and there's no real Dr. Fixit's available to hire as interims either.
Even if 99% of it is bullshit (which it is), the movie they'll make about these couple of years is going to be way more entertaining than the football.
