It's United mate so the usual suspects are crying that we get treated different, more bitter than Bitrex
I mean clearly the rule has been bent in order to give Ronaldo the No.7 shirt, but as far as I can see it gives Man Utd no tangible advantage on the football field so I couldn't give two ****s.
I suspect it gives them a cash advantage off it though. The CR7 brand, shirt sales and merchandise etc. It was always going to happen as dirty dollar is King, but if it was just Joe Bloggs at Burnley, it’d never make the PL agenda.
I doubt anyone who was gonna buy Ronaldo merchandise, wasnt going to unless he wore a No.7 jersey. And I think CR himself owns that brand anyway, so it will benefit him personally more than the club
Because the rule stated that a player cannot change shirt number once registered, and Cavani has changed his shirt number. but its inconsequential
How is it wrong?? Its open to interpretation surely so thats why Ronaldo has 7 and Cavani 21 unless there is another quote of said rule.
Cavani had already been allocated a number and he has to keep it. "While he remains with the Club a Player will retain his shirt number throughout the Season for which it was allocated."
Unless you request a change and are granted it which is what happened. Rules bent all over the place or just oppo supporters bending themselves
Nope because things like that just don't bother me as much as some people so pay no attention to what other clubs do. Tell me again how many have been denied, i missed it the first time.
