<br />
<br />
The new home kit will make its debut during the match between United and Leeds United FC in Norway on July 12th.<br />
<br />
The 2023-2024 jersey combines a classic red main color with black for logos and the Three Stripes plus white detailing. It is the first time since the 2019-2020 season that Adidas use black as the secondary color. Officially, the red color is called "Team Collage Red"<br />
<br />
In terms of design, the 2023-24 Manchester United home kit is inspired by the industrial heritage of Manchester. The kit features a repeating pattern that combines a Lancashire Rose in a geometric pattern that is inspired by Trafford Road Bridge, which was built during the time of the industrial revolution.<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Dear Ronnie<br />
<br />
I’ve been a MU fan for the last 50+ years and write this as a lifelong MU fan.<br />
<br />
Thank you for returning to Utd even though I wasn't totally thrilled when I heard you were coming back. <br />
<br />
Thank you for helping the club achieve all that it achieved before you left for Madrid but the club hasn’t achieved anything since you came back as we all know.<br />
<br />
Why say you’re being forced out of the club now just as there is no point saying it was an open secret that you wanted to leave before the start of the season?<br />
<br />
Why say you’re being forced out of the club unless you still want to stay? Either way your contract ends in 6 months so what is to be achieved by saying you’re being forced out?<br />
<br />
Can we agree that it’s in your interest to leave in January? I can’t speak for the club but I suspect the club will also agree that it’s in the club’s (and team’s) interest that you leave. <br />
<br />
So, if it’s in everyone’s interest that you leave in January why not just ask the Club if you can just leave?<br />
<br />
Oh. You want to be paid the rest of your salary for the remaining 6 months? That’s a totally different thing. <br />
<br />
You want to leave AND be paid for not staying? Isn’t that called having your cake and eating it?<br />
<br />
If you love the club as much as you say you do why ask the club to pay you on top of letting you leave? <br />
<br />
Don’t you see that if the club agrees to let you cancel your contract the money that you would have been entitled to for the rest of your contract can be spent buying a replacement forward? <br />
<br />
What are your options then?<br />
<br />
These seems to be the only options :<br />
<br />
a.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Stay at the club and be paid your salary but be banished to the reserves;<br />
b.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Apologise to the club, the team, the fans, everyone for everything you said in the interview;<br />
c.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Sue the club to be released from your contract;<br />
d.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Ask to be released from your contract and accept a simple ‘drop hand’s outcome and part ways with the club paying you nothing.<br />
<br />
Let’s be clear, even if there was the slightest chance the club would have agreed to let you leave AND pay you your salary for the remaining months of your contract you blew that up when you gave that interview. <br />
<br />
You’ve made a rod for your own back by trying to back the club into a corner because the club can never agree to letting you leave and paying out your contract if the same thing can happen with another player. <br />
<br />
We know options a and b aren’t acceptable to you.<br />
<br />
With option c by the time the case comes up for trial you would already have left the club.<br />
<br />
Looks like option d is you only realistic option unless you want to go down option c when you have your family to think about. <br />
<br />
What shall it be Ronnie? <br />

Warmest regards and good luck in Qatar.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Dear Ronnie<br />
<br />
I’ve been a MU fan for the last 50+ years and write this as a lifelong MU fan.<br />
<br />
Thank you for returning to Utd even though I wasn't totally thrilled when I heard you were coming back. <br />
<br />
Thank you for helping the club achieve all that it achieved before you left for Madrid but the club hasn’t achieved anything since you came back as we all know.<br />
<br />
Why say you’re being forced out of the club now just as there is no point saying it was an open secret that you wanted to leave before the start of the season?<br />
<br />
Why say you’re being forced out of the club unless you still want to stay? Either way your contract ends in 6 months so what is to be achieved by saying you’re being forced out?<br />
<br />
Can we agree that it’s in your interest to leave in January? I can’t speak for the club but I suspect the club will also agree that it’s in the club’s (and team’s) interest that you leave. <br />
<br />
So, if it’s in everyone’s interest that you leave in January why not just ask the Club if you can just leave?<br />
<br />
Oh. You want to be paid the rest of your salary for the remaining 6 months? That’s a totally different thing. <br />
<br />
You want to leave AND be paid for not staying? Isn’t that called having your cake and eating it?<br />
<br />
If you love the club as much as you say you do why ask the club to pay you on top of letting you leave? <br />
<br />
Don’t you see that if the club agrees to let you cancel your contract the money that you would have been entitled to for the rest of your contract can be spent buying a replacement forward? <br />
<br />
What are your options then?<br />
<br />
These seems to be the only options :<br />
<br />
a.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Stay at the club and be paid your salary but be banished to the reserves;<br />
b.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Apologise to the club, the team, the fans, everyone for everything you said in the interview;<br />
c.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Sue the club to be released from your contract;<br />
d.<span style="font-size: x-small;" class="mycode_size"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" class="mycode_font">      </span></span>Ask to be released from your contract and accept a simple ‘drop hand’s outcome and part ways with the club paying you nothing.<br />
<br />
Let’s be clear, even if there was the slightest chance the club would have agreed to let you leave AND pay you your salary for the remaining months of your contract you blew that up when you gave that interview. <br />
<br />

<span style="color: #4a4a4a;" class="mycode_color"><span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">There were 67,492 in attendance for Wednesday's final, smashing the competition's previous record of 38,187, as the United teenagers provided a much-needed boost at the end of a wretched season for the club.</span></span><br />

			<description><![CDATA[Manchester United's owners have put up another 9.5 million shares, with a value of &#36;186.86m (£137.12m), for sale.<br />
<br />
United notified the New York Stock Exchange of the sale on Tuesday evening, in the names of club directors Kevin Glazer and Edward Glazer.<br />
<br />
The statement makes it clear the club "will not receive any proceeds from the sale".<br />
<br />
It comes five months after United's Premier League game against Liverpool was postponed due to fan protests.<br />
<br />
That followed the collapse of the European Super League project which saw United co-chairman Joel Glazer heavily involved in the negotiations.<br />
<br />
In March, Avram Glazer sold £70m worth of shares in the club.<br />
<br />
The sale represents 8% of the family's total combined ownership, although they will still hold a combined 69% of the shares in United and sources say they remain committed to the club.<br />
<br />
It is almost certain the shares will be sold at a price lower than the Stock Market value because of the sheer number being sold.<br />
<br />
United co-chairman Joel Glazer has twice attended Fans' Forums in the wake of the supporter unrest and pledged to make shares available to fans.<br />
<br />
In September, he said implementing a share scheme was "rather complex", but added: "we're jumping those hurdles" and hoped to bring the initiative to a conclusion "in the not-too-distant future".]]></description>

<br />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a;" class="mycode_color"><span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">Ed Woodward will continue at Manchester United until the end of 2021; he had already agreed with the Glazers, United's owners, that he would leave Old Trafford, but the announcement has been brought forward</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a;" class="mycode_color"><span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">Manchester United has today announced that executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward will step down from his role at the end of 2021.<br />
</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
Woodward joined United in 2005 and became executive vice-chairman in 2012.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Ed Woodward said:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“I am extremely proud to have served United and it has been an honour to work for the world’s greatest football club for the past 16 years.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“The club is well positioned for the future and it will be difficult to walk away at the end of the year.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“I will treasure the memories from my time at Old Trafford, during a period when we won the Europa League, the FA Cup and the EFL Cup. I am proud of the regeneration of the club’s culture and our return to the Manchester United way of playing.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“We have invested more than £1bn in the squad during my time here and I am particularly delighted with the progress the players have made under the astute leadership of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his coaching team in the last two years.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“I am sure that with the changes we have made on-field and to the coaching and football staff in recent years this great club will soon be lifting silverware again. It deserves to. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“I desperately wanted the club to win the Premier League during my tenure and I am certain the foundations are in place for us to win it back for our passionate fans.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
“Our world-famous academy is flourishing again, with 34 players progressing into the first team since 2013, and it has been a pleasure to watch talents such as Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Axel Tuanzebe flourish in the first team environment. In the years to come the club’s production line of young talent will continue to push established first team players for their places. That competition bodes well for the future.<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #4a4a4a;" class="mycode_color"><span style="font-size: large;" class="mycode_size">“We have also established Manchester United Women and their progress is further evidence of the demand for success at this great club.</span></span><br />
