Azzy Mahmood wrote:I've asked Bull and he can't remember about his tactics / voting. But to me, £6.5m over Weeks 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 of the season isn't much.

Can we agree that Bull provided tactics for, say, 7/9 weeks, and voted on say 5/9 weeks? Does that seem fair? So he'd have gotten 5x£2.5m and 2x£1m? I don't think he missed any tactics (because every week we laughed at his copy/paste job from my old ones), but I thought this conservative estimate would be fair.

Which would mean instead of £6.5m, he was due £14.5m - so I'd add £8m to the pot.

Does that sound fair?

Morning lads - what do you think of the above?

Azzy what happenned to your boy Tamas yesterday? He got murked by Kolarov.

Just want to remind everyone that the morning after Manchester United went out of the Champions League to Real Madrid, I said this could be the last season of Sir Alex Ferguson. He looked like he'd had enough. I was ignored.

Told you all. Called it!

I'll believe this is true when hes not there opening day next season frankly.

If he does step down, who in your opinion should replace him.

I think if they can tempt him, Jurgen Klopp.

They've missed the boat on Mourinho I suspect.

Not convinced by Moyes. Personally I'd go for Ancelotti to bridge it to the next young manager.

Though, I think its more likely SAF takes a break, and Phelan leads the team through preseason.

Klock should be first choice. But I think Moyes will get the job tbh. The Scottish connection shall continue through the kilt wearing scouse.

P.S. I also said Wigan's cup run would see them relegated.

Wigans cup run had nothing to do with them defending like a Jamaican U7s team Bony profits from.

wigan shud never have made it past round 3 fluky basterds

Fergie is retiring. 100% true.

What's your source Hero?

My dogs brother in law.

Amanda Holden.

I'll believe this is true when hes not there opening day next season frankly.

He wont be. Hip surgery will force him to miss it.

They've missed the boat on Mourinho I suspect.

Man United board never actually wanted Jose, the only value he shares with Man United is winning, nothing else about him is "Man United"

To be fair, Man United will have to make a statement soon due to their flotation on the New York Stock Exchange theres some clause thing (forgot correct name) where they have to divulge certian information, change of management is one of those.

My mate who is friends with Commercial Director Richard Arnold. He had to confirm it last night to Japanese partners when the story broke.

i wnat reslts

Its official! On the man u website!

Fergie retires.

Sir Alex retires

• Thirteenth league title in 26 years will be his last
• Most successful manager in English football history to become a director of Manchester United FC

NYSE: MANU. Manchester, UK. Sir Alex Ferguson will retire at the end of the season, Manchester United announced today.

The most successful manager in English football history will bow out after the West Bromwich Albion game on 19 May and join the football club board.

Announcing his decision to retire, Sir Alex Ferguson said:

“The decision to retire is one that I have thought a great deal about and one that I have not taken lightly. It is the right time.

“It was important to me to leave an organisation in the strongest possible shape and I believe I have done so. The quality of this league winning squad, and the balance of ages within it, bodes well for continued success at the highest level whilst the structure of the youth set-up will ensure that the long-term future of the club remains a bright one.

“Our training facilities are amongst the finest in global sport and our home Old Trafford is rightfully regarded as one of the leading venues in the world.

“Going forward, I am delighted to take on the roles of both Director and Ambassador for the club. With these activities, along with my many other interests, I am looking forward to the future.

“I must pay tribute to my family, their love and support has been essential. My wife Cathy has been the key figure throughout my career,

Dear United

U touch Eddie im killin gya

My mate who is friends with Commercial Director Richard Arnold

Hero, is your mate really mates with Richard Arnold?
Im not like the rest of these lot, I actually know who he is, what he does & how important he is at Man United.

SkySports have announced it on twitter.
Im scared now

Tamas is most definitely NOT my boy. I hate him, we should never have Bosman-ed him, waste of £25k a week.

Lads, any thoughts on me adding £8m from missed bonuses on Bull's part?

This is a horrible morning.

I think a British manager will be taking the helm though. I would be betting on Phelan myself.

Moyes is 1/1 with the bookies.
Jose 11/10
Klopp
12/1

If I was putting money on it, I'd put the majority on Mourinho with a small outside bet on Ryan Giggs.

Looks like Kenny Jackett knew something nobody else did.

No Beckham for United manager then?

Roy Keane? Steve Bruce? Gary Neville?

And someone please talk to me about the £8m bonuses

I hear Mark Hughes is in the frame.

I think a British manager will be taking the helm though.

Agree on that.
Mourinho isnt Man United, I just cant see it & I really really dont want him at Man United.
Odds have just changed!

I'd go Ancelotti with Solksjaer as his #2 personally

This slipped under the radar...

"Wayne Rooney, 27, tells his Manchester United team-mates he wants to join Bayern Munich in a deal that would cost the Germans £30m."

I want to add my £8m lads

Dont really care about that Marky. Rooney is nothing compared to whats going on. If he wants to leave he can, his actions in the past have shown what his attitude is like & thats from his Everton days. He wants to be the big star man, hes not, big boo hoo.
I still think hes a great player though & I wouldnt like to lose him. End of the day he can be replaced.
Can Sir Alex be replaced though??

I think Rooney wants to leave United before Moyes gets there, there's bad blood between them and Moyes will undoubtedly be buying big this summer.

I'm hearing Mourinho + Ronaldo in, with Rooney and Fergie out.

So, times like these are when you look at the best bits.

What was Fergie's best moment?

Has to be 1999 and the Treble, but more specifically that European Cup final.

I'm hearing Mourinho + Ronaldo in, with Rooney and Fergie out.

Ive just seen it on twitter. Dont believe it.
I dont want Mourinho, even if he brings Ronnie home, I dont want Mourinho.

I don't care who it is as long as it isn't Moyes.

We are stuffed when he goes.

And Azzy, without any clear idea on what cash has and hasn't been added, plus the fact that there were more weeks than you state that Bull tactics or votes were late, so it is difficult to tell.

Anyway the Directors of FC No Respek offer to step in and top your starting budget up to £12m.

Ronaldo isn't leaving RM.

And Everton should hire Malkay Mackay if Moyes goes

Good Morning

Shame about Fergie certainly up there if not greatest manager of an english side ever.

He always said if he's health started to suffer he'd quit so it's not a surprise really.

Well, we've been facing rumours all season, what with Moyes' contract running out in the summer.

The two names that seem to be on the list are Mackay and Martinez

Apparently Ferguson said without all the extra time added at the end of games he might have completed another season.

Yes Z3 my work colleague does know Richard Arnold, I don't know the full nitty gritty of how he does, he's actually a City fan himself but he was texting him last night regarding it.

The post when I mentioned about Utd working to get Ronaldo back still remains the case.

Howard Webb was recently seen leaving tesco with a bag of paracetamol

"First Thatcher dies, then Fergie retires. Somewhere out there is a Scouser with a lamp and one wish left."

Well I'd like to thank the Directors of FC No Respek for their frankly insulting gesture of an additional £0.8m

I can't see Ronaldo being sold with Perez up for election in the summer.

From what I've heard, Mourinho isn't popular amongst the Madrid squad
