    At last, should've happened weeks ago, the man that should get all the blame is Ed Woodward, i'm not a fan of his and all he's bothered about is sponorship deals, given the fact he use to be our commerical director before he became our new chief executive, who appointed him, i'm sure it was the glazers, another yes man for them, he should be sacked but he won't as our owners like him but if he doesn't leave us, i want him to resign, i mean, could you imagine Levy making half-arsed bid for players, i can't.

    Our relationship with Everton was destroyed because of him, we got on with them and we gave them players as well but no, i'm sure he wanted to piss them off with an unacceptable double bid for Fellaini and Baines, i just want him gone out of our club, resign or sacked, not bothered, i hope Gill does come back some time soon but i doubt it.

    Also Woodward has turned us into a laughing stock across the football world, we're Manchester United, we don't deserve this but one man thinks we can. This would never of happened under Fergie i guarantee you that, he would've put his foot down and told Woodward to get his targets before the end of the transfer window, i mean why wait until deadline day to make our first signing under the Moyes era, we could've done that at the start of the window.

    Gill will not be back. Woodward will not be sacked despite the problems caused this window. All we can hope for is he and indeed Moyes are better equipped to cope next Jan and summer. Hopefully they learn from the mistakes and carry out all future dealings in private.

    Right or wrong, football is all about money. That will not go away any time soon.

    I'm up for an iQuest <ok>

    Can't find it in the appstore though, send us a link please Matth?

    I hope the final level of the game is a perilous undercover operation where we don disguises and sneak into the La Liga headquarters, trying to smuggle out a kidnapped young midfielder who is willing to defect to our side <somersault>

    Unfortunately, we signed more of them than we did on players this summer.

    How would fewer sponsorship deals be of any benefit?

    All he needs is to leave the money deals to the finance dept. His job is just to get the players he wants. How they get them or how much it will cost should not be his f**king problem.

    It is like at work a specific member of staff of a big company needs a laptop with these facilities and these specifications: high connectivity, power, speed etc. etc. How the management comes up with the equipment and how much it ultimately costs them, is not his problem. As long as he gets it, he should be happy!!!

    He's a control freak though, he does get highly involved in transfer negotiations, the setting of fees etc, he did it for 11 years at Goodison.

    According to matth we can't multi-task at all.

    Not sure where he thinks the money for players is going to come from, we don't do the whole Billionaire owner waste money on every name we come across thing!
