Make Manchester United Great Again - Email Ed Woodward

I believe they do know the fans aren't happy and the club is monitoring fan forums, social media etc. Think they have done for a few years now.

Yeah, I think you're right.

It will take Old Trafford to turn on LVG for them to sit up and take notice IMO.

Especially if it gets reported in the media.

I mean God forbid those naughty fans are tarnishing our reputation and jeopardising future baked beans and wind-eze endorsement deals.

So you don't think he's gone in 3 games?

I hope to God that he is. My problem is that I just don't have any confidence in the board to make the right decision. A decision that should have been made months and months ago.

Little things, like reading last night that LVG has extended the lease on his rented Manchester house for another 12 months, have wobbled my belief if I'm honest.

It's quite something when so many fans are actually hoping that the team fails to ensure the manager is disposed of.

No fan should have to even entertain these thoughts. The fact that the clubs board has put its fans in a situation like this is an absolute disgrace.
 
I think we need to work on the title to make it as much eye catching as possible
 
We also need a video of some c-list celebrity United fans who wax lyrical about the unique identity of United and how having van Gaal in charge is ripping the city's soul out. The more Mancunian they sound, the better, because it really drives home that this is a local club and that they're out of touch and just don't get it. A shitty slogan delivered in a condescending manner to drive home the point wouldn't go amiss.
 
What about 2 planes at once flying over Old Trafford with messages

Plus a hot air balloon
 
Why are people against voicing discontent?

Desprete times, desprete measures.

Well, I guess it depends on how desperate one thinks times actually are.

We're playing tedious football with underwhelming results, that's what it amounts to. Not the sort of thing I personally consider a horrible injustice one has to take a stand against. It's football, basically.

But by all means, if people want to write to Ed – go right ahead. I understand the frustration. I'm pretty sure he already knows how they feel, though. It's no secret to United's board that the majority of the worldwide fanbase want LVG out.
 
Ive decided Im going to write an email. Some of you will have your opinions about it but I dont care anymore...

Dear Ed,

Any chance of a team signed United shirt?

That just reminded me when I wrote a hand written letter (in the olden days when I was a kid), to the software developer that made some karate game on the commodore 64. The next week, they sent me a few posters!!!!! Feckin heroes.


Edit: It was International Karate (System 3)
 
Let's copy campaign tips from Donald Trump :wenger:

And the red arrows. And balloons twisted into the words "Feck off". And angry monkeys throwing bottles at the bench. And lions.
 
Every time I think the forums can't stoop any lower someone steps up.

We've made over 25,000 posts under "LVG Out". The consensus is that we want him gone and nobody is shy about saying so on this forum. So why not let the one man who could make it happen know how you feel? If we're going to complain, we might as well try to get someone to listen.

I think if Woodward was aware of some of the things being consistently said on this forum, it could make a difference. The things people are saying about our style of play, lack of goals, not wanting to renew season tickets, lack of excitement and interest in the matches even when we win, etc. What if Woodward thinks that an FA cup win will keep us happy enough for another year of Van Gaal?

Thanks to those who have contacted me or made an effort to email the board. The rest of you wordsmiths, take a short break from ridiculing me, and use your creative genius to ridicule the manager in an email to ed.woodward@manutd.co.uk or richard.arnold@manutd.co.uk
 
Does the board really know how unhappy we are with the manager? Before it's too late, can we coordinate an effort to make sure we get that message across in a constructive way to the people that matter? I worry that the public discontent has not been strong enough to truly register with them.

I won't be able to stand another year with Van Gaal. I'm tired of complaining on the forum so I've written an email to Woodward to let him know, and I plan to continue emailing him every day and whoever else I can come up with that might be involved in evaluating the manager's performance.

It's unlikely that Woodward will reply and I wonder if he would even read those kind of emails. But if he and his fellow decision-makers sit down to an inbox of 500 messages with subject lines like "Van Gaal is keeping me from renewing my season ticket", at least they would know how the supporters feel.

Let's get this started... I think these email addresses of the managing board members should work. Corrections or additions are welcome.

Woodward's email: ed.woodward@manutd.co.uk
Richard Arnold: richard.arnold@manutd.co.uk
Jamieson Reigle: jamie.reigle@manutd.co.uk
Avram Glazer: contact info?

feckin hell...I bet you line up three days ahead of time for the newest Iphone dont you?
 
There's gonna be four PAs annoyed by the two emails sent from Redcafe members
 
Give it a rest lads, at least he's taking some action, good on him. I wish our bloody board would take some action.

At least it's better than handshakes and clapping the moron on his back
 
I sent an email a few days ago. Don't doubt it achieves little on its own but I prefer doing something than sitting in my arm chair with my back to the fire, bowler hat nestled around my well-rounded crown, knowingly shaking my head and guffawing to the heavens at those on redcafe who actually make some attempt to be proactive in response to their discontent.

:lol:

Richie Arnold will be getting my email later. Feel sorry for the assistants going through those piles of emails:D

Seriously, no one expects anything from doing it, but nothing beats a try.
 
Ed,

Do you have biquini?

And at big corporations, the emails of high ranking officials and presidents are managed by administrative assistants who filter out all but very pertinent emails. So it's a possibility that Woodward may never see an email from the vast majority of people who send him one.

That is true, he won't see a single email. It will either be ignored or you'll get a standard empty generic response.

However what do you think if that mailbox suddenly gets 50.000 mails like that ?
 
filter for emails containing knob, redcafe, wanker and fraud then delete all.

You don't think one of those personal assistants would atleast notify Edward of 50.000 mails of angry fans ?

In most customer support systems they will have protocols on how to deal with complaints. One of those protocols is that if a complaint reaches a certain threshold volume (as in number of mails received with the same complaint) it has to be escalated to the next hierarchy level. If you get one customer complaining about something, you have some minimum wage customer support employee deal with the mail, if you suddenly hundres of such mails, his superior will be informed, if you thousands, that guys superior will be informed, if it gets to 50.000 I'd imagine it will get escalated to the highest level. A serious organisation can't afford to have 50.000 customers who are so pissed off with the compnay they are angry enough to whrite a serious complaint email, if such a problem presents itself top management will need to know it and address it somehow.

I'am not saying they will get 50.000 of such emails but if they get that kind of communication, they would be absolute fools to simply ignore it as an organisation.
 
If you honestly believe that a few dozen emails from disgruntled reds is going to make the slightest difference? I honestly very much doubt it. Like has been stated, non of these guys will actually sight any of these.
I remember when the boos went out at FT against Norwich. If that, on top of the poor results in December didn't get LvG the boot, then a few emails at a time when the club is getting results and potentially top 4 and the FA cup, is unlikely to have an effect.

No you do have a point. If I was an admin assistant and my executive's email started getting swamped with non-generic angry emails from supporters, eventually I would raise the matter with him/her.

Now that being said, I've always said that if it takes the supporters sending emails/flying planes for the board to wake up and let LVG go, then we are fecked, regardless of the immediate positive outcome.

An immediate positive outcome is better than no immediate positive outcome.
 
Well, it looks like we are preparing to build a wall, judging by how some of our players were bricking it.
 
Flying planes, a petition that gets media attention and especially home fans booing continuously and making it embarassing for the board will certainly have affect even if they know .
 
Vote with your feet. Actions speak louder than words.

Although, I think he is gone by the end of the season. Hopefully, they'll get him to resign rather than sack him.
 
I'm going to be sending that mail. Bit surprised why some are laughing at this but are content with saying LVG out over and over on an internet forum that more than likely won't reach the people it is intended to. If enough emails ( including the previous RI ones) reach them then who knows maybe just maybe they take notice. Better than sitting and doing absolutely nothing

feck that, I hope they sack him in the most humiliating way possible.
