Marc Skinner

From what I have heard United have an option on Skinners contract and can extend him automatically for 1 more season!

Yeah it was officially announced on the day he signed the new deal. You just know that owners don’t care enough to explore other options.

I’m actually feeling pretty optimistic about the women’s team at the moment. Despite losing so many key players we’ve got a very strong squad now, and for the first time in ages there isn’t any drama about contracts so things are pretty stable too. It seems all our best players actually want to carry on playing for us, for once.

But with that said, Skinner really needs to deliver this season and repay the faith the club has shown in him - top three in the league and another cup final (if we can avoid Chelsea) should be the bare minimum

Considering Chelsea and Arsenal have squads valued to almost double the value as United, and with City also way above United, how can you demand that United should get 3rd? I just dont get it. The other clubs have more experience and higher paid squads. And you are also saying that should be the bare minimum. If we were to get 3rd in the league and get to a final that would be performing better than our squad is!

City just added Kerolin and also looking to add german sensation Jules Brand. 4th place is where United is supposed to finish with the resources we have. Arsenal and Chelsea we should not be able to touch atm with the resources they spend and City we might be in competition with as they had so many injuries (hence why they are on a buying spreed in the transfer window)

This Skinner is the devil and is guilty for all our problems and shortcomings mantra and should be mocked and attacked on every social media after every game (even after the 4-2 win Vs City) is getting very annoying! Some of the leaders behind the "Skinner out signs" should be banned from attending United games tbh as they are reaching new lows all the time by making stuff up about Skinner and spreading it around poisoning the minds of others! I have actually stopped following the womens team for a while because I was so fed up with the same culprits insinuating things about Skinner!

I am not a fan of Skinner myself, but I dont like fake news or fake facts being spread to influence fans and the club to get rid of Skinner!

I agree that Skinner is chastised far more than he should be. That being said last season was properly dire and the buck stops with him. This season, results have been a lot better, but many of the same issues still exist. I think he has done overall a good job, and history will look back on his performance very kindly but I very much believe he has taken us as far as he can.

I have no answer for a replacement mind, apart from trying to tempt the boss of whoever wins NWSL, Ligue 1 or Barcelona (because obviously they win)
