It's a terrible, intentional misrepresentation of the point; nobody is claiming SAF wouldn't have been probably the greatest manager ever if we hadn't given him time.

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.
Fair play, although that makes you more rational than plenty of folks in the "manager out" camp.
You're right that any United fan who thinks we should have a different manager, does so because they think ETH isn't the man for the job. But multiple fans in that camp, who are posters on here, would rather we lose in order to feel vindicated for taking that position, as evidenced by their inability to celebrate the FA Cup win, preferring instead to belittle the achievement and mock our league finish.
Those are obviously not fans who put the club first. Instead their hatred of the manager, or perhaps it's just desire to be right, comes ahead of club success for them. I get that that torpedoes your attempt to paint your position as that of the better fan, which is probably frustrating, but while you may well be the type of fan who puts the club first, plenty of those in your camp clearly aren't. That serious enough for you?
So many people just trying to jerk each other off in an attempt to blindly support the manager in an attempt to prove they are the truest fan or something ha
Other managers didn't have us finishing 8th and performing like a bottom half side.
Must be on a wind up.
So many dumb posts from ETH apologists, they will have you believe we are about to sack a Pep regen, what a shit show
But they'll be fine as soon as there's a new guy to worship.
You guys are so rattled it's hilarious. Back out with the name calling I see
Even if he is the best since Fergie, who cares? Mourinho was clearly the best since Fergie at the time, and he was sacked because it was not good enough.
Crap managers don't win silverware every season. Wise up.
Mourinho was far better than Ten Hag and we didn't hear nonsense like "he deserves a chance under a new structure".
This.
Good managers don't have United performing like a borderline relegation candidate. Stop the wind up.
Well the best manager in history did, just to be shamelessly pedantic
I am still ten hag out, despite our fa cup victory. I know we have had alot of injuries, but against some teams, we really were utter utter shite. I'm not furious like some, but I have seen enough. However, if he stays and proves me wrong, I'll be happy to admit I'm wrong.
We were never close to relegation under fergie, terrible bait.Well the best manager in history did, just to be shamelessly pedantic
Not as rattled as a lot of people will be if Ineos follow through on their well researched, well prepared plans, do what our new football directors have clearly asked for, and sack him.You guys are so rattled it's hilarious. Back out with the name calling I see
Only a small club would consider domestic cups that important. Especially the League Cup which is a Mickey Mouse competition, really.
Gee, here was me thinking this manager got us to 3 Cup finals in 2 years, winning 2 of them, one against the greatest manager (supposedly) and best football team (supposedly) of all time!
Im not on a wind up but I see posts like your and I can take a calculated guess as to who is!
Your a Chelsea fan or perhaps a Liverpool fan right?
Yeah you're too obvious.
Erik just won a game someone go hand him a lifetime contract right now.
I don't believe I've said that I'm a better fan once on here.
There are likely a few loons on both sides of the discussion who want to be right. Just like anything there are always extremists.
Nonsense. Only clubs that never win anything don't care about winning domestic cups.
We weren't close to relegation with Ten Hag either. Unless you want to talk about early doors when we finished 3rd, in which case it's you with the terrible bait. Keep up.
Name me one poster that said if INEOS do a well thought out and prepared audit, and decide to sack, then we would have a problem.
You probably can't, and if so, once again you're caught up in hyperbole nonsense. Continue being a conversational extremist, it's your thing. "Worshipping" managers, christ you're rattled
In reality it's only really the clubs that win them that year that care about them. Even that's questionable with the League Cup.
hoping for your sake that you're just wumming here
Well at least now you're acknowledging the existence of the loons on the "manager out" side of the discussion now.

How is this even responsible conduct for a manager? If Antony was £10 billion and it would cause United to go bankrupt, but Ten Hag was like, “nope, I want him” that is patently stupid. Of course this would affect the rest of the transfer targets.
There seems to be a horribly narrow view in the Caf that budget and negotiations are kept at arms length to the manager, but every company on earth works on a budget when purchasing capital assets. To claim he had no knowledge of the price we would have to pay for Antony is ludicrous.
Yeah it certainly is and that's not a good look
I hope they stick with their already completed audit and already made decision and then we'll see who has a problem.Name me one poster that said if INEOS do a well thought out and prepared audit, and decide to sack, then we would have a problem.

Out of interest, who is suggesting he should get a lifetime contract?
indeed, seems to manage cup competitions really well. Wonder what Real would do to a manager that finished 8th with a negative goal difference though.
Why would any united fan mock ronaldo who helped the club win more than our current manager and also banked the club 80 million while our manager spent that on Anthony.
Lads, the ass kissing of ten hag is beneath all of you.
Because Ronaldo is a narcissistic cnut who doesn't give a flying feck about the club.
And ten hag does? Does caring about the club make you a legend now?
I was answering specifically why any United fan would mock Ronaldo. Feck him.
Wow, relax mate, it's a joke. Also I'm ten Hag out but we won a trophy a week ago while our ex-players who exited the club (well Sancho only on loan) in a bad fashion (never mind how much of it was theirs fault) lost. Shame for Sabitzer though.
clear.
