Guh, that's rather a lot.
Beggars, choosers and all that. That's what happens when you wait until the end of the transfer window.

What we deserve for making a balls of this window. Could've had Vermaelen for less if Woowar actually pressed the issue.

I'd be surprised if they were high tbh.
The list of bad transfers reminds me that West Ham have us £15m (rising to £17m) for Carroll. More than we paid for Sturridge. Mad.
Think Liverpool could pull it off very well, better than we did last year now that we have two very good full backs (plus Flanno).

Carra is completely clueless wow
True, but that's alot of money on shite.
It's as bad as Carroll, Downing, Adam and Coates for £68m.
They paid us a 3m loan fee as well the season before.
So Andy Carroll has accumulated £55m in transfer fees. Crazy.

Isn't Fellaini on £120,000 p/w?
Different situation, but it's pretty much the only example of Woodward negotiating wages.
It was mentioned we pulled out of a deal because of £2m disparity, wonder if this was the one.

Nah. The Vermaelen holdup was Wenger's reluctance - not a fee issue.

No, an article said that we never attempted to negotiate the transfer.

Based on Delaney's article yesterday, the delay on Vermaelen was that we never bothered to fucking bid because we're incompetent.
:lol
Give Mata the phone and a list of fucking targets.
Wooders thought Wenger would come to him.
I say that in jest, but it's realistic innit

We're playing Britos ahead of Ghoulam for one of our most important matches this year.
We offloaded Vargas to QPR, because Benitez - following in the footsteps of Mazzarri - doesn't rate him for some reason.
And our big midfield signings, after an exhaustive search across all of Europe, will be de Guzman and possibly Fellaini.
This isn't a team that wins a Scudetto. This is a team that'll struggle to qualify for the Champions League - not just this season, but the next one as well.

Where's this guy now? Wiki says he didn't even go out on loan last year. Injuries? He's 21 now (and apparently only made one appearance for Penarol. Utd signed him on the back of a youth tournament).
Manucho's got to be one of the weirdest names on that list. If goals in the Eredivisie count for half, what do goals in the Angolan league count for?
Mata strikes me as the "nice guy" type who would gladly drive a target to the Emirates if he rejected United.
He wanted to go back home because of family issues or something.
But he didn't.
KidA will know.

Woodward isn't losing his job.
Why do people think this?

I don't.
If fans want a change to happen they need to stop targeting Glazers and start targeting Woodward ONLY.
He might get shunted across to a different job at United. That's the best we can hope for.
Your team is still top 3 material, but Viola are REALLY close to your quality now. It'll be a fucking dogfight this season :lolWe're playing Britos ahead of Ghoulam for one of our most important matches this year.

and he'll probably write a blog apologising to the fans after he misses out on a target
and by the end of the season, he'll (manually) write a letter to each and every single one of your 650 billion Man United fans thanking them for their support and wishing them a good summer

Tonight is the night we are going to officially die.
I hope Solbakken stops being a dick and finally starts Franco Mussis.

No, but he should be shuffled off into his previous role or leave him as is and get a DOF to handle the transfers, according to the requirements of the manager or something.
You're still going to play a B-Team?

Nope.
But half of our first team is injured lol, so we are going to have quite a few players in unusual positions and not many options on the bench.
We don't sign midfielders. we give Cleverly a new contract.

Well, your chances of getting a ticket sold by BVB are pretty much 0%.
Other sellers like Eventim only get a very little amount that haven't been sold by BVB. A year (or two, I'm not sure anymore) you could get some tickets from this one rather easily. Not sure how it is today but doesn't look all that good. Seems like they had no tickets for the first two matches this season but that might be because those are the first Bundesliga matches since May. But it might be worth it to check there every now and then.
The other chances are ebay, which obviously is rather easy but most likely expensive, and just going to the stadium. Like at (probably) any stadium, there'll be some people looking to sell their tickets. Depending on your luck, you might get a ticket for the original price in 5 minutes or not get any ticket at all.
I'm sure he'll find tickets in viagogo

The previous administration did. They were close to destroying the club financially for their own profit and the profit of their friends.
At Sporting he was paid around 20K a week.
