Not sure, check A&E
In the right place then. This is GB reporting live from A&E where scores of zombie like Man Utd fans have besieged the building shouting “should have waited for shaw!”, “not ten hags fault”. Many are crying and wailing. Unbelievable scenes here
 
As predicted, now just need Xavi to be confirmed for the bet to come in.

Will be very interesting to see how he does elsewhere, he's the first coach we have hired who was actually highly rated and wasn't retired/on a downward spiral.

He's weirdly arguably got the best achievement of any post SAF manager (top four + trophy, followed by another trophy) whilst also having the most abysmal league form we've seen.

I worry for Ruud with this bunch of players though, true to form would be a quick bounce and lots of media interviews where everyone is talking about United DNA and dropping hints about how Ruud gets the club and culture and then....Ars, City and Pool away in the space of 6 league games, we get hammered and things turn sour.
 
About a year too late, but good riddance nevertheless. Shame the crap he bought isn't leaving with him.
 
Good, I was worried this decision will be delayed. Should have gone after last season.
 
Utter stupidity to not do it during the international break. Glazers / Woody mk 2
 
Holy feck, there is still some hope that this board might not be entirely useless.

Let's hope we can save the season now.
 
Hope Stretford Paddock and Gary Neville are taking this news okay.

All that wasted effort defending the indefensible.

They’re just going to sweep it all under the carpet and ignore it like they did when Solskjaer was sacked. The equivalent of shouting there’s something behind you then running away as you turn around.
 
With this sacking I really do hope the cult of personality phenomena surrounding managers amongst the United fanbase is over.

There isn't another Fergie it's time to move on and stop pining for a new football Daddy.
 
Atrocious that they left it so late.

But, on the flip side, there’s still time to salvage the season. Let’s hope RVN can turn it around quickly, and that we can get someone in who has what it takes.
 
Shame, as at one point in his first season I had high hopes. Not just because we did relatively okay in the league and won a trophy, but because he was making some obvious steps in the right direction such as sidlining Ronaldo.

But he needed to kick on in the second season, particularly in terms of style of play, and didn't.

No particular vitriol towards him. He's just another in a list of failed appointments. Hopefully the next one, the first of the INEOS era, marks a change in fortunes.
 
Finally!

Please don't rush into another manager that we'll end up regretting.
 
For my money...

For the INEOS lot to sack Ten Hag four games out from an international break and after a bad loss to West Ham (albeit not the worst we've had after the chances created and scandalous penalty) means they've chosen the successor already.

Who that is? I don't know. My guess would be it'll be young manager who can fit into the new hierarchy. Wouldn't be at all surprised if it's a Potter, McKenna, Southgate or Frank.

Personally, I like Frank.
 
I wouldn't put too much stock in Van Nistelrooy. Entirely unproven and didn't show that much at PSV to make me think he's a huge coaching talent while Ten Hag was amazing in our league.
Yeah, I know. It was a sarcastic reply to the "the second best bald dutch manager in PL"
 
He had to go. But I am disappointed he is sacked, because it means yet another failure. Yet another rebuild and clear out. The cycle just carries on and on. I had high hopes that we could regain some of the glory years after ETHs 1st season, but here we are again.

None of them four please!
 
Glad the decision has finally been made.

Wish him well wherever he goes next, as bad as things have been it's not nice seeing someone get heaps of abuse and turned into a joke figure so I hope he can turn that around elsewhere.
 
He'll probably get an extra 10m because of 1 game were he dubbed some fans in believing he's the next SAF.
 
He won 2 trophies and took us to another final. He’s is far from the worst.
Even if he won 2 trophies, he just feels like the worst. Even felt worse than the Ragnick era and thats saying something. It doesn't help that something about him rubbed me the wrong way since the start; and I've never had that with any of the United managers before.
 
Antony
Casemiro

Martinez
Malacia
Eriksen
Hojlund
Mount
Onana
Turkish keeper
Yoro
Ugarte
De Ligt
Zirkzee
Mazraoui

How many of those does a new manager keep and use?
Those 4 for different reasons need to be moved on. Realistically none of those are sellable for acceptable fees, so we'll be stuck with them.
 
Watching some SSN coverage.

That Kaveh guy has to be one of the biggest grifters going. He's such a fcuking bluffer.
 
Shout out to Chris Wheeler who said United were looking go replace ten hag 3 days ago
 
Wow, they did it.

Here's hoping Ruud can bridge the gap until we're ready for what comes next.
