A new 100k stadium still looks to be the likeliest outcome, it's what the owners wanted. It would be the best way to give us the upper hand against all our rivals, the task force was basically set up to look for ways to make that possible.

Its obvious they want a new stadium, and rightly so. They are just making it look as though they investigated keeping OT to keep the fans onside.
 
A new stadium seems the sensible option along with regeneration of the surrounding area. Guaranteed , it’ll pay for itself within a few years of completion with a projected revenue estimated at just over £7.5billion

Should be a simple matter to lure them into the traps once the new cheese room has been built in our 100k 'Wembley of the North'.
If y,ou. want to trap mice then you should use chocolate, the idea that mice love cheese is a myth that originated in the Middle Ages.
 
After visiting Arsenal‘s tired rundown stadium I kind of want a regeneration of old Trafford now how quickly THEIR New shiny house has become a dull of a washed out bowl we might as well keep our soul and just improve the corporate areas and space out the seat in a little bit

Why?

It’s a legitimate concern. OT is and has been the heartbeat and soul of United for the past 100 years. For a club that already feels so alien to the club most of us grew up supporting, leaving OT, ripping it down and creating a brand new stadium with no history just takes it another step further away.

Give me stadiums like Anfield, Nou Camp, Bernabau, San Siro all day everyday over brand new state of the art stadiums like The Emirates, Tottenham Hotspur stadium, Etihad etc etc These stadiums are part of these great clubs history. It’s what makes them unique. At this rate every club is gonna end up with the same looking stadium and even more of the romance of football (which is already being ripped away) will be gone.

As a kid I will never forget the first time I went to OT. It was the most exciting thing I could image. Walking into the stadium where I’d seen all these incredible players and teams playing on TV and videos as a I grew up. Feeling the history as I walked through the turnstiles and then that feeling when I walked out and saw the pitch for the first time. It still gives me goosebumps thinking about it now. That’s what football should be about. Take that away and we’re just another big club with a brand new shiny stadium like the rest. OT is a huge part of what makes Manchester United so special.
