Executive vice-chairman of Manchester United is not a boss of an employee at Manchester United T.V that is run by Manchester United? Seriously?
Andy Mitten doesn't work for MuTV or for Man Utd in general.
Atleast 3 people have already pointed this out. Read the posts man.

Anyone know when he's going to release his interview?
It's in the new edition of United We Stand which is released on Saturday.
About time!
I submitted a question to Mitten for Woodward about Beckham which seems even more relevant now. Hope it got in.
What about Beckham?
It's a great point. Which is why I thought we should have gone for Mourinho even if he wanted to up stick in a few years. Then get Moyes in, I doubt the pieces would be left broken on the ground.
However all this has done to serve is bring out the knee-jerkers and moany twats who really should just be sticking by the manager and sitting back and enjoying the ride. Most are but plenty have taken their supporter cloak off and outed themselves as bell-ends.
Moyes will have more than enough time to get it right. Hell it might even be as soon as this season. But the whole ABU circus and even United fans themselves jumping on the hate train is a bit pathetic. Farcical to watch for the more sane fan.
What happens if Mourinho had won the league with us, maybe Europe...Moyes would still have had the same task then.
What if Mourinho had have stayed for 25 years and been better than SAF?
I was responding to your point of if he left after a few years.
Whether he has any future at United in any role (ie ambassador)
PHAAAAAAAAAAK!!!!!!!!

Would anyone mind posting or PM me the Mitten interview with Woodward?
Hard not to like what Woodward said in that clip although words are cheap. But I was surprised that he sounds like actually watches football
Yeah, agree. But he is english after all, would be bit more surprised if he was an american CEO being brought in.
I'm just pleased he doesn't sound anything like his face would suggest.
He's completely unapologetic about the farce that was the last transfer window. Whole lot of words, and only a microphone headed shit Belgian to show for it - and for a shocking price, add to that.
He's simply trying to save face, but credit to him for having the brains to wait until the storm had passed before making these remarks.
Don't like the guy, seems like a proper Glazer man.

Anywhere we can read the full interview?
Anyone?
He came across well in that. Some much needed PR on his part. I'm optimistic we'll be much better prepared next summer.
Since he says he's the negotiator, I would have liked him to have been asked about paying extra for Fellaini though.

He does come across well in that interview and talks sense. Atleast he admits his own inexperience.
I do think losing both Gill and Fergie in the same summer really fecked us over and he pretty much seems to admit that himself.

"All we try to do is pay the right amount for a player. We’ll pay a bit more within a range like we did with Fellaini, but we weren’t willing to go to 36m euros with Herrera"
Right then. Idiot. Good luck signing top players then. We'll be left behind soon enough if we keep thinking it's 2001 and we can get some of the best players in the world for 25 million.
I'm thinking he's full of shit. Reading that interview after that ridiculous summer really makes my blood boil.

Manchester Evening News ~ Woodward: United ready to spend big
As evidenced by your 'pursuit' of Cesc Fabregas.
United ready to talk big more like.
Just re-read the first paragraph of the MEN story. They need a new sub. Here's what it says:
"Chief executive Ed Woodward has raised the possibility of Manchester United going back in for Ed Woodward and said the Reds' increased revenue will allow the club to spend big money on top players." I copied that from the link.

Same old shit from United hierarchy.
If it happens, ill gladly eat my own words but the fact is we are unable to sign "top, top" players and its catching up with us.
He mentions Carrol and Torres "were they worth if?" No, they weren't worth the premium. But Hazard and many others have proved to be worth the extra few million.
Things probably need to go to shit before we will push the boat out like all our rivals regularly do an sign a top player - as then there will be an economic reason.
It's a tough situation as we are a business and our competition are charities or billionaire-sponsored passions.

He should keep the statements for himself and actually make some signings.
seems Woody's on something of a PR drive.

Grubby-looking twat. Looks like he needs a bath. He should keep his trap shut until he's gone out there and made a signing or two that we actually need. fecking gnome.
He had to say something sooner or later, though. If nothing else it will allay the fears of those who thought he had yet to return from his trip down under.
It means feck all of course - until we actually sign a world beater or two.

Why are people criticizing him for talking though? It's basically what he has to do for now, it's not like people weren't screaming for a statement to be made after last summer. Of course if it turns out it's a load of air, then people can be mad at him, but what he's doing now is a PR exercise and a very good one. Some people just seem to want to be outraged for the sake of it
To be a club on world class level we need both players with the highest potential but also world class staff that knows what it takes. At the moment we have coaching staff from Everton and a CEO that made the club look like a joke last transfer window. He can talk as much as he wants but he hasn´t proven anything so far.
