@Ankaman616 in the athletic article on the ‘United way’ it says that Moyes wasn’t Ferguson’s preferred successor. Is this a new thing? As far as I remember everything pushed Moyes as Ferguson’s pick.
Listen folks, this thing with Rampling and his lawyer from Reform is not going to go away and I’ve made some enquiries and it looks like I am the only one being sued.
I mean this is how ridiculous it is, in the writ I am being sued for reposting something RA wrote, but RA are not. Which is crackers I am sure you will agree. He is not suing DJ Mag or Mixmag either - who are both also named.
Clearly we are considered the low-hanging fruit here.
So there's two avenues ahead, one is to take their claim seriously, which is at least £100,000 to chase and win - or I countersue against their claptrap. This won’t be free either but it is more affordable to scope out and chase down if done on our terms.
So we reckon it is going to be a more affordable 20K to do that. At least to put a serious case together.
I’d love to take the fight right back at them. It’s unthinkable that the Far Right should be doing this to journalists, or indeed to anyone.
Would you help?
As an Elon Musk biographer, I would peg his IQ as between 100 and 110. There’s zero evidence in his biography of anything higher.
And I want to repeat that now, lest you think it a typo.
There’s zero evidence, from his life history, of Musk having anything higher than a 110 IQ.
People don’t fail in isolation and this post hits the nail on the head. United have a very poor record with progressing player development once in the first team - either coming from youth or transfers
When you fail to fully develop and ultimately end up losing an asset like Rashford, yes - it’s the club’s failure.
Not necessarily the club’s fault, or not exclusively the club’s fault, but definitely the club’s failure.
A lot of people seem to struggle with this notion, preferring a more simplistic idea of the player receiving huge wages & failing to produce, with the club a passive bystander to this.
It’s what the rage-baiting YouTubers have been telling them, in their never-ending bid to manufacture toxicity, which in turns brings engagement & revenue.
Beautiful irony, isn’t is, that the folks making a living out of producing toxicity, are the ones accusing players of being toxic while making a living.
Why do I mantain that the club must own this as its failure?
1. As a general rule, whether you are a company, a club or any other entity, your try to maximize the assets you have.
If you fail to do so, the failure is yours, regardless of the whats and hows and whys. From the club’s perspective, that’s irrelevant - the end result is what matters.
And if the end result is failing to develop & ultimately losing the asset, then the club suffers the negatives.
It’s not like Rashford is the only asset we messed up with.
2. United obviously didn’t do enough to develop Rashford. His initial promise was greater than the product we ended up with, with only occassional hints of his brilliance.
This is mostly due to constant changes in managers, game models, tactics, roles and duties, but also a good amount of misprofiling and a lack of compatibility with immediate teammates.
When Rashford had a CF and LB he could play with, he usually thrived. When he was used as an attacking outlet, he usually thrived.
3. Rashford - and others players - had to go through countless managers, game models, corporate upheavals, club restarts and other emotional rollecoasters.
It’s been sheer chaos, a maelstorm of constant change, insecurity, fan anger & ferocious anxiety. It’s taken a toll for sure.
4. After his best season at United - ETH’s first one im charge - Rashford’s role was dramatically changed yet again, and his naturally output collapsed.
But all you could read about was his alleged lack of effort and lack of goals, with a complete disregard for changes in the tactical context.
How was he supposed to stay super-motivated? He had just had a dream season and saw his role changed, yet again, in a way that highlighted his flaws and failed to use his strengths.
5. If there had been off-field issues, and there seem to have been quite a few, can you really claim it had nothing to do with the total professional chaos the boy was brought up in?
It’s not like Rashford is completely innocent, but the club did all it could to provide him with a terrible environment to develop, grow and succeed. Over and over again.
@LouiseMLCook@Dominos_UK The manager of the store I spoke with couldn’t explain it other than they now had to “follow the cooking instructions”. Their PR/customer team said it’s to keep vegan and non vegan products separate. Sounds like a decision made by someone remote from the stores/customers. Meh
Hi @Dominos_UK so your staff just told me I can no longer add vegan cheese to a meat pizza and I can’t add meat to a vegan pizza. So you just don’t cater for dairy allergies anymore then? That’s 3 years of regular buying stopping now then.
@Dominos_UK So your response was basically we don’t want to mix meat and vegan therefore people with dairy allergies can no longer have meat toppings and vegan cheese. Feels like a pretty stupid position seeing as you have provided that very service to my family for the last 3 years.
@Dominos_UK DM sent. And also my business today has gone to @PapaJohnsUK who do let me add vegan cheese to a pizza and will cater for dairy allergies from their full menu. Unlike it seems Dominos.
