Ed Woodward has resigned from Manchester United | 2024: Returns to football

I heard he had a bit of a Jerry Maguire style breakdown and stole a fish on his way out. It was frozen and breadcrumbed mind you but it was still symbolic.
 
Plus he's going to be 80 this year and was seriously ill a couple of years back, can we not give him a break and instead try to look forwards?

Fergie should rest now, he has done enough for us. Like you said, we should look forwards.
 
Woodward doesn't regret what he did, he regrets getting caught out and humiliated. What a fecking joke of a human. It's pretty bad when you make UEFA and FIFA out to be the good guys, 2 of the most corrupt organizations ever to grace the Earth.
 
I think this the route they will take because United under the Glazers will still need someone with a strong financial background to navigate these uncertain times. Now that we have a DOF in place I don't think we still need a football savvy CEO, even though one would be desirable, more than we need one with a strong corporate and financial background but who is accommodative enough to leave the DOF and Ole to run the football side.
The CEO will be doing the rubber stamps towards transfers and player contracts so I think it's important whoever replaces Woodward is a bit more football savvy.
 
SAF has probably been consulted by all the folk that have tried to replace him on certain matters, well you would wouldn’t you. Bet he will still have an opinion. Edwin van der Sar has been mentioned as a candidate. He’ll be a safe pair of hands (groan) but I can’t see the Glazers picking a football guy. Probably some former CEO of a fast food chain or similar.

Real shame that Judge didn't follow him and resign too because in regards to contracts he's been utterly terrible
 
I didn’t like him as CEO. Special before United didn’t create the Football director role. So again. In many times on this forum. I only dislike this guy, related only to football decisions, even he might has done some good football decisions. But mostly not.

A good news for me. But apart from mr.football Woodward. Like singer and artist off stage. They does have different role in life, different from football. Then he might is doing a good job there. So wish him good luck in the future. Football is just a part of life. Even you a poor at football. Doesn’t mean you are poor at different aspects of life. It does affect, jobs affect private. But you still can do a decent and good enough job as a dad. Live in the moment and present can help a bit. Focus the mind on the present. Difficult. Past things will pop up in the head. But just pull the mind back to the present.

Everyone has up and down in life. Maybe this worst downfall of Woodward. But if he can handle the pressure and hates towards him. Learn from his poor decisions. Then he will come out of it. A better version of him.

A tough test. Handle all the negative. But when you first have join the game. Then you have to accept everything it’s part of the game and will appear during the games.

So in the end. When I first follow United from 1990. Woodward is the most dislike director. Never experienced a big case like this. The biggest storm since I follow. So again. Wish him good luck. And like every storm. It appears, but will also disappear. Nothing last forever. Special everything on the surface and physical.

This is a weird post.

I would like you to speak at my funeral.
 
If 3 million Man Utd fans got together they could probably buy the club for 1000£ each

You are forgetting that some of those fans are from poor country.

Have you heard Ighalo's story about him using his lunch money just to watch Man United? Giving away 1000£ will be too much for them. That's like buying 12 years of Man United home kit.

Although, buying partial of the share might be possible but that still does not change Glazers will remain as part of the owner and making it even more difficult to sell.

This is incredible :lol:
 
Hello fellow American. This you should vote me. I leave power good. Thank you. Thank you. If you vote me I'm hot. What? Taxes they'll be lower son. The democratic vote for me is right thing to do Philadelphia. So dooooooo.
 
I've a few words for Ed. Special everything on the surface and physical.
 
Yeah, but the original reports said he was planning to leave in the summer but brought forward the announcement due to the backlash and somehow the date he's leaving got pushed back to the end of the year?

Think it was planning to be announced in the summer and he's leaving in November.
 
I always thought this was one of your burner accounts.

If it was I would reply to it to remove suspicion. Then I would use one of my other burner accounts to reply to that message to completely remove suspicion of that account as well. Most threads are actually just me replying to myself with different accounts going back and forth like that. What a life.

:lol:

To be honest, in your absence, there's been quite a few accounts that I've said that about you. The broken English just took my mind back to the Omegle days!
 
Wishful thinking. Very wishful thinking. But do you think Woodward wants to stay beyond the summer so he can be part of us having a great transfer window because he has such a big ego?
 
So did Woodward actually know about the Super League? The latest on BBC suggests he tendered his resignation as he couldn't support United in the Super League...suggests to me that he didn't really have a say in this either...

The evidence suggests that he did know, and he did try to implement it, but he didn't like having to do so and was never a fan.
 
Maybe I was wrong about Murthough



He's a calm cookie is our Bruno

Because he's the hero Gotham Redcafe deserves, but not the one it needs right now, so we'll hunt him. Because he can take it, because he's not a hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector, a Dark Knight.

Yeah,

From what I have just read, he was invlolved in discussing the project with other clubs, but had reservations all along but didn't voice them.

Although I cannot forgive the man for assisting the Glazers with their buyout and he has made a lot of rather dubious decisions, I have to commend him for at least showing a bit of integrity with this.
 
Nice of him to resign because he believed in the football pyramid. Rather unfortunate that he only found the principle to do so once the ESL plan that he'd been working on for three years had already fallen apart though. Particularly as, having already been reported as one of the key driving figures behind the move and described by the President of UEFA as a snake, it rather looked like he only resigned because the project he was centrally involved in turned into a shit-show failure.

But I'm glad the positive stories about him that have spontaneously appeared in the press since have told us the real story.
