This is the only journalist I trust on this matter:
Got a little excited when I logged on and saw the thread had jumped 13 pages.
I really hope that is the case
Ducker’s article going in hard and brutal on Ole. Will the club ban him from future pressers if they keep Ole? 
Fergie said on his documentary something a long the lines of:
"The pressure on me was enormous, and Martin came out and said. 'The manager has our support'. He didn't need to do that, and we all know that in football a single game could change everything, but I appreciated that. I think that was good of him. That meant a lot to me at the time."
Our idea of supporting the manager is quite literally saying that publicly up until the point where we sack him. That is the United way - doesn't mean the manager is actually safe. Mourinho had the full support of the board an hour or so before he was sacked. It's just what we do.
What? So the club tell him, before Ole? Come on pal
They did with Moyes, LVG and Mou in fairness.
Though I think they'll be "nicer" this time around.

He don’t turn until he knows it’s safe.

Perhaps he knows Ole won’t be here much longer.
It won't matter what we do if the teams above us keeping winning. He is in a situation now where he dare not drop even one point because it will mean the teams above can pull away even more. Yes he probably will go on a run at some point, but it is a sure thing we will go on a bad run at some point as well.
Today has to be the day.
Can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m very close to giving up on this club whilst this ownership is in charge.

In the breakdown of the game on the Athletic this morning I saw that -
The City game was the 15th League game where we've lost by two or more goals under Solskjaer. Compared to five under Moyes, five under LVG, and eight under Mourinho...

Sorry to be a negative on this but if he's going to be taking training today (which is likely), I don't think he's going anywhere before long.
I believe I read that the board will meet later this week(I don't remember the day), so I assume they haven't really had a chance to consider his position yet after the City game. He could very much take training and end up sacked after the board has finished their discussions.
I think he goes this week. There will 100% be some truth in the player revolt rumours and it’s clear now that even the most ardent Ole supporters are accepting he need me to go.
He is not going to lose against Watford. Not with the players we have.
"Those in power still want Solskjaer to succeed but it is unclear for how long that desire can override the reality."
The delusion is strong within this club.

I want to run a marathon in 2 hrs flat.
"Wanting" has feck all to do with anything, he isn't going to succeed, it's 3 years and 400m in and we actually look further away from City and Liverpool than we did when he took over. I refuse to believe Joel is that stupid, I can imagine SAF has a daft belief that because he climbed out of a crisis, maybe Ole can; but anyone other than Fergie looking at this and the level of our performances against our strongest rivals has to be deranged to think we're close to matching that.
Do we have training today?
Would you be against players downing tools at this point?

This was a pretty damning insult,.”but that fabled “DNA” Solskjaer bangs on about could have stood for “Do Not Attack”.
But it's why he hasn't been sacked so far, they deluded themselves thinking they were onto something with Ole. They provided him with money and more importantly a structure that just basically makes getting rid of him harder for them.
They set the club again for failure and had no clue that would happen when everyone outside the United bubble saw it coming a mile away.
Wow, this is damning.

BUT BUT BUT we play good football under Ole.
Biggest myth around, just because we have scored 5 goals a few times, does not cover for the fact that this season we have played well in 1 game.
Ducker's article is spot on.
Please sack him today. Just do the right thing you mole rat looking cum stain.
it'll be weird in a couple years looking back on now and trying to begin to fathom how we persisted with a man who is so obviously not qualified or skilled enough to lead the biggest club on the planet. We've literally asked Buzz Lightyear to fly a real spaceship. no amount of 'to infinity and beyond' bullshit is going to hide the fact he's not a real pilot
Woop de fecking do. I never miss an Orlando City game, weekend or midweek, be it at 12:30am, 3:30am or like last night a very lucky 20:30 kick off. I fly out there a couple of times a season to watch them live. But I would never ever pretend that my opinion should be worth anywhere near as much as a season ticket holder to the club. I wouldn't say I am less of a fan than the season ticket holders but obviously the people who are there week in week out are far more important to the club than someone like me.
Is it only United fans that don't go to games that have this ridiculous sense of self entitlement?
Seems fecking bizzare they want him to succeed at the detriment of our club but hey ho.
Thanks.
Mate we have 30 players. The manager is free to not pick the dross. There's absolutely brilliant players in the squad. A top manager would have it challenging for the title.
But a couple of poor team performances and suddenly all of them are babboons and we need to "rebuild". Nonsense.
These briefings that we'd prefer to wait until the summer to make a decision are fecking hilarious. Gary Neville keeps repeating the same thing, saying shit like "they haven't planned for this". Which club does plan for this? It's a crisis. A couple of months ago we finished second and bought Ronaldo, Varane and Sancho. Obviously we didn't plan for it, but that doesn't change the reality of the situation. If anything, it just emphasises the extent of the problem. We're making it much worse for ourselves by allowing the regime to continue after humiliating defeats, and to not give an appropriate successor more time to implement change. I cannot stand the bunch of witless balloons that run this club.
As its the international break , we will have 2 weeks which will give the coaching staff ample time to sort things out. With Watford away coming up, we should win that and no doubt that will boost confidence and expect the team to go on a run. Plus we are top of our CL group so its only fair Ole is given the opportunity to progress.
- Is what the Manchester United board is thinking right now.

Here I thought the most deluded part of our club was some bits of the fanbase. Seems like those in charge are even more deluded, the scum that they are.
Seems like unless we drop to 15th or something he will get the season regardless of results or fan feeling. Strap in for a rough one and pray that once this is over we never hire someone with previous links to the club again.
They’re thinking we can’t afford to bring in new management but if the players down tools for Watford there is nothing they can do but let him go.
