Journalist from Manchester, living in London. You'll often find me on a train or stuck on the M25.

@Yvonne70skyblue Yes. As reported. He was made aware about the role before Robins was sacked. Had a contract at United he wanted paying off from first.

EXCLUSIVE: Sir Alex Ferguson vocally vetoed to sacking of Erik ten Hag during the international break.

INEOS chiefs didn’t like Ferguson’s comments and voted to remove him from the organisation.

Then a week later they sacked Erik ten Hag, without objection. #mufc #manutd

@StanCollymore The decision was correct, and it gave great joy to the Manchester United fans. Imagine this was the other way around and United scored an offside goal that wasn’t chalked off. You’d be calling for VAR. It’s emotional either way. You can’t have it both ways however.

I can confirm having spoken to DAZN that #ksifury sold 1.85m pay per views and 700k were sold on fight day. ~250k were sold around an hour before the main event after a scintillating card.

Well done all! #boxing

@jfield03 Perhaps. But United being ‘rinsed’ in the market is nothing new, post-Fergie.

United agree £64m Holjund transfer. Outrageous fee for a player who is unproven. Haaland cost City £52m in comparison. #mufc

[Tony Didcott - Journalist @TonyDSport]

Now Manchester United have Holjund sorted, they can finalise the Amrabat transfer and McTominay’s departure.

Also: £20m for Maguire is insulting to both the player and Man Utd. #mufc

Darren Moore walked away from Sheffield Wednesday after being told his budget for the season which would have seen them go straight back down. #SWFC

@amcbear He’s not in a good way and worried it could be the end. Incredibly sad. A great great man.

[Tony Didcott - Journalist @TonyDSport]

Really sad news about Sven Goran Eriksson. Brought so much hope to so many both as England manager, Notts. County DOF and briefly at Man City.

Manchester United will announce Luke Shaw’s new contract at 10 am

#MUFC

[Tony Didcott - Journalist @TonyDSport]

Luke Shaw and David De Gea have both signed long term contract extensions. Marcus Rashford has not. #mufc
