what do u all think lol


My co–worker is the secretary of one of United's bigger supporters groups and he's been white as a sheet this afternoon after learning about a monumental situation developing at Old Trafford.

It seems that the club have been sounding out the supporters groups about the implications of Ronaldo's transfer to Madrid. As has been mentioned today, it looks like the Glazers have accepted a cash offer, behind Fergie's back, of £65 million for the player and a 10 percent merchandising cut for two years. The figure is lower than expected due to the player's unwillingness to play for United next year.

The situation, however, is compounded by the fact that Fergie, Queiroz and several other key back room staff have decided to quit the club in protest. The Glazers are now threatening to sue the staff which is making the situation much worse.

The supporters groups are being sounded out about preventing supporter demonstrations at the ground. The players are extremely unsettled by these developments and the club are now desperately trying to prevent a general player strike.

The Glazers are keen to sell their main asset now as the pound and dollar could lose even more value against the euro in the next year. They feel Ferguson has too much influence over their investment so are not sorry to see him go either.

This probably will not be the only rumour like this today and there is a chance that the story will break tomorrow or Thursday. I am posting to this site as the club have threatened to break off ties with supporters groups that break the story before the official announcement.

I cannot believe that our club is facing such a bleak situation. I hope it all works out okay, even if there is no way back for Fergie now.

Come on you Reds. United 'till I die. <<<< that not me btw
 
i will just wait til it happens as there are to many rumours flying about now. wont be happy if it is true though.

plus i see you came to your senses and changed your avatar. lol
 
yes i was going to use the first one here it was taken after the second one
 
hope its not true for the sake of man u fans like , but if it is ad luv to c fergie stick to his guns be a sad way for him to end his time there but the glazers said they were never in it for themselves and well this to me proves other wise and noones safe at the right price .

regards robby
 
the glazers dont have the first clue about football they should have stayed in america investing in their sports

Cheers

Oh Dear .......
 
well i will take it all with a pinch of salt untill it actually comes out..

if it doesnt the sources was wrong..

if it does, then well.. this is all fucked lol
 
off same site


My Dad is a scout for Man United and has been working with them for over 10 years now. I am not going to mention his name as he would kill me for telling you this but last night he said he was worried over his job as the manager may be walking out due to some internal problems.

No I do not know if it has anything to do with the Glazers selling Ronaldo or anything like that. I am not saying that, all I am saying is that Fergie and some of his staff may be gone very very soon (before next season) and yes if that did happen I would imagine that a few players would become reachable as Fergie would not be there anymore.

Man United exodus? Let's hope not I hope they sort it out and Keep Fergie: ( Plus my dads job of course)
 
And we all know the Man U rejects come to Blackburn!

Berg
Cole
Yorke.....

AF as the new manager I would have that...lol AS IF Blackburn United!
 
Is this news true, or is it because it's coming from a scouser fan who just want's the utd fans to feel unsettled and uncertain about the situation.

If Ronaldo goes, without Fergie's consent, Fergie's going to end up leaving, which will unsettle the club and damage utd's rep in my opinion.

Half of this Ronaldo crap is all paper talk and gossip anyway.

Just been into Manchester press club for a swift couple. all the talk in there is a massive breaking story that will hit the media Friday morning. sir Alex mac–taggert is off. he has just had it confirmed that Ronaldo has been sold behind his back. and he is good to his word "if he goe's I go" so goodby to the both of you. made my day.
 
David, can I get a link to the site you're getting all this gossip from?

Or are you just talking crap to make us feel down eh??!!! ;)
 
Update from the site:

Man United

A deal is being worked out between Man United, Ronaldo, Real, Nike and Adidas. Ronaldo will be staying on an improved contract with massive endorsments from Nike. Real will have first refusal next season, where a deal is being worked out with massive endorsments from adidas. Fergie will step down if Man United win the league next season letting Ronaldo go, if they do not win it he will step down the season after.
Poss Signings are:
Carlos Kameni – Goal Keeper – Espanyol – £6 million
Dimitar Berbatov – ST – Tottenham – £29 million
Joao Moutinho – Sporting – £19 million
Sergio Ramos – Real – £29 million
Karim Benzema – Lyon – £25 million

And

MUFC Rumours
Great source from inside club

If Ronaldo goes expect Robinho, Sneijder and Ramos + some cash as United will hold Real Madrid to ransom

If ronald stays expect bids for benzema £23 million + Saha and either Alves or Richards £22 mill

Silvestre on way out for £3–4 mill
Fletcher £5–7 million depending on who bids
