Ed Woodward has resigned from Manchester United | 2025: Returns to football

No football club (big or small) wanna employ him ? This tells you all you need to know how bad he has done at Man Utd.
 
I think at this point it’s pretty much known he’s a bit of a mark in the football fraternity, as he foolishly boasted about our finances in public and then got taken the cleaners several times over buying players by clubs.
 

Actually makes quite a bit of sense, if he's there to facilitate taking the company public and has nothing to do with the football side of the business.

Though, I'd love him to take over Palace and run the whole operation.
