Manchester United's net debt has risen by £26m and total revenue is down 5.8%, according to quarterly figures released by the club. The figures also reveal that the Glazer family spent the equivalent of more than £250,000 a day – which amounts to Wayne Rooney's weekly salary – on a £71m buyback of bonds and on interest payments over the past nine months.
Critics of the club's American owners argue such money should be spent on buying players and the revelations will cause further anger among fans, who view the heavy leveraging of United by the Glazers as affecting their ability to compete with Manchester City, the new champions, in the transfer market.

While United's accounts say gross debt has dropped by £61.2m from £484.5m to £423.3m, a 12.6% reduction, this is countered by the club's cash falling from £113m to £25.6m – a reduction of £87.4m – meaning the former champions are £26m worse off than 12 months ago.

The 5.8% fall in total revenue – from £75.2m to £70.8m – reflects United's exit from the Champions League at the group stage.

That's worth a double LOL, one for the content and one for Cloudy's cheeky quip.

Manchester United have fallen to 20th in Uefa's club coefficient rankings - four places below rivals Manchester City - after the points for the 2010/11 season were discounted from the rankings

I'd say we are pretty much self modding. We don't even get fake profiles anymore such is the desert of the forum

Just been on the MEN and it makes great reading. It's over 75% City and all the Munich stories are about how shit they are

What mods are still active? Kimbo and Danny, albeit from the other side of the planet. Anyone else?

110m for Pogba, when they let him go for free. LOL.

Sadly they look to have a strong team this season. Not as good as ours mind.

P.S. I still don't know how to embed YT. Technology is starting to evade me.
