4 They're ruthless when it comes to failure.

so why hasn't Moyesy been given his P45 since around January time then?

My guess is they'll wait until the seasons over. Maybe because of clauses in the contract or for lack of someone better or on fergies advice-I don't know. One thing, they didn't seem to sack mid season at the bucs either (not sure if thats just a nfl cultural thing or not)

I think it's just because the Glazers allow the football brains at the club to make those decisions, probably the same as the NFL side the own.

maybe, but they've also shown to reject the advice of those people at tampa bay when they went for gruden over someone more defensive. Granted they probably take fergies advice much more highly than anyone at the bucs but they're also not afraid to do it there way.

Teams in the NFL don't sack mid season. All the firings come at the end of the teams campaign.

He point the Glazers get involved with the football, is the point we should really worry.

If you bother to actually find out, you will know that there's a 2-yr contingency built into the MUFC financial plan without CL participation. Moreover, most of the recent and lucrative sponsorship contracts won't start delivering payload until 2017. They're in it for, at least, the mid-haul. What's £6 million to MUFC on Moyes' contract? Peanuts, son. Now, what's Wayne's annual salary?

Kerr-I fail to see the relevance, this isn't about the clubs finances. I'm sure the club can survive a year out of the cl but even two years is pushing it (the contracts signed must have cl clauses in them surely? im thinking chevrolet/nike ones especially). However, the decision to stick with a struggling manager for club fighting to get back on top is a huge huge risk-its not about the contract only but the possibility that top 4 won't happen in 3 years time when the contingency plan is over.

No.5 has come as a bit of a shock to me, I have to say.

Sorry, I thought this article was meant to be about the Glazers financial ownership of MUFC?

And, Point of Order Mr. Speaker… Chevrolet/Nike would just love to get an exclusive sponsorship deal on the same CL level as GAZPROM, wouldn't they? Congrats Mr. Putin. You knobbled UEFA first, Crimea second.

More about how they run bucs and what this may mean for united in the future rather than just pure finances-although that plays a role my article certainly wasn't geared towards that if you bothered to read it fully.

Yea because chevrolet/nike have shown themselves to be companies that just can't wait to do things morally. Companies care about the bottom line and you know it, cl advertising enhances that- Putin can take the whole of Ukraine for all they care.
