Sir Jim Ratcliffe is a \u2018colossal t*t\u2019 who deserves a colossal kicking for his views on immigration.<\/p>\n
We will be back later with some views on Liverpool etc but in the meantime, mail us at theeditor@football365.com<\/p>\n

Sir Jim Ratcliffe gets the kicking he deserves<\/p>\n
And to think Man United fans thought the Glazers were awful. Sir Jim clearly thought hold my pint lads.<\/p>\n
Parm from Gravesend (Invader in Gravesend?)<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026Just a quick one to say, if big Jim is truly worried about the UK being colonised by immigrants, he\u2019s in for a real shock when he looks at Utd\u2019s starting XI. Don\u2019t domicile yourself in Monaco and ask for tax payer money for your new stadium you colossal tit. \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026I\u2019m sorry, but I don\u2019t believe Ratcliffe is a fit and proper person to own a premier league football club. A league that has built its reputation off the back of the world\u2019s best players coming to our country to play. A league that is marketed around the world, that has fans from Lagos to Lapland, Patagonia to the Philippines. I don\u2019t see why anyone in this country should have to listen to some tax avoiding billionaire telling us about the decline of this country. A country that is struggling partly because of a billionaire class of people not paying their fair share and who flee to Monaco.<\/p>\n I feel sorry for United fans. I bet 99% don\u2019t have a bigoted bone in their body. You can\u2019t if some of your greatest players are Cantona and Ronaldo. And for the global fanbase, I\u2019m sorry. To the people who get up at stupid o\u2019clock to watch the team they love, only to be told that people like them is what is ruining the country their club play in. And to the people who get annoyed by rainbow laces and woke-ism who cry \u2018keep politics out of football\u2019 \u2013 I hope you\u2019re vocal here too. I hope you tell Ratcliffe to shut his pie hole and stick to football.<\/p>\n Expect a concerted push from the club and the social media channels to distance themselves from these comments, that say that it is not indicative of the club, but the fact is that the man at the top has these thoughts. That ethos will bleed down. \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026Radcliffe is a c***.<\/p>\n Best wishes \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026Jim Ratcliffe: C***. \u00a0<\/p>\n Don\u2019t mention the Man Utd hair boy<\/p>\n There is an episode of Fawlty Towers where Basil keeps reminding people to \u201cnot mention the war\u201d around some German guests at the hotel he runs. He even proclaims to others that he \u201cmentioned it once, but got away with it.\u201d<\/p>\n Now, what has this got to do with football?<\/p>\n Well, I\u2019m reminded of this every time in the past few days F365 have written about the Man Utd fan not having a hair cut<\/strong><\/a> until they have won 5 on the trot. Each dig at the story makes me imagine Sarah, whilst conducting a meeting with her staff, asks that no one mentions Hair boy, and that she did mention it once but got away with it.<\/p>\n It\u2019s just that having made a big deal about how annoyed you are with him, you do seem to talk about him a lot. Of course, if I was a cynical middle aged man (which some would say I am) I\u2019d say AI has found that you get a 2.6% increase in traffic to the website if you make a dig at Hair Boy.<\/p>\n Anyway, back to Man Utd. Ashmundo from Wednesday morning<\/strong><\/a> probably had his email in his drafts ready to send the very second they dropped points as he wanted to do some kind of gotcha moment. Newsflash; Teams drop points. No one wins every single game.<\/p>\n Man City dropped points to Spurs recently so is that proof Pep is not very good and should be removed?<\/p>\n In the same way it is absurd to think Carrick should be the next full time head coach after the first 4 wins, it\u2019s equally absurd to say a draw away at an improved, well oiled team like West Ham is proof he\u2019s not good enough. Every potential choice has pros and cons. We\u2019ve also tried every possible type from the proven winners, to the club legend to the next big thing coach who did great in another league. None have reached the heights demanded\/expected.<\/p>\n Perhaps we should lower those expectations and realise at the very best, at this moment in time, they can only get Top 4 if everything goes to plan? Instead of always thinking the next manager is the Messiah who is going to bring the league title back, plan to be a top 4 team, THEN look at building towards the title \u2013 and this could be a change in manager.<\/p>\n The other thing people keep forgetting is that INEOS have declared a wish to have a recruitment plan based around the club and not a manager (the signings made under Amorim already show this as any worries about being 3-4-3 players have been forgotten now they play 4-2-3-1) . This indicates (and reports have said Amorim got pissy over not having a say) that they want a head coach who doesn\u2019t have a say in recruitment (final say on a player for example).<\/p>\n This could very well be a Carrick or an Ole and not an Enrique or Tuchel. And as a fan, I just want to enjoy my club play football and under Carrick that is something I have done for the first time since Ole was in charge (apart from that 3-4 month period Rashford was flying during Ten Hag\u2019s first season). Other fans will have different feelings and that is their right.<\/p>\n So, lets just wait and see. Carrick could end up going on a huge losing run and be out of the running. Or he could get back to winning ways and get top 4 and champions league and for all we know, get hired and bring the title back. He has as much chance as others who all have cons. Football, is after all, impossible to predict and often the thing you most expect doesn\u2019t happen. \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026Hey Oliver.<\/strong><\/a> I think the article on hair boy<\/strong><\/a> is making a wider point about modern media and the attention economy in general. I also found the whole thing funny, bit of light hearted fun. You chuckle to yourself: he\u2019s going to have to go to work like that, social events too what if it was something like a wedding? He\u2019s going to look a right muppet the bigger it gets! His missus and his mum must be absolutely fuming with him haha legend!<\/p>\n But then comes the monetisation Oliver and the engagement, oh how companies need that sweet sweet engagement. So first it\u2019s Paddy Power adverts, then it\u2019s meme after meme, then podcasts and watch alongs and interviews and Sky Sports presenters jokes and players being asked about it in interviews and oh god make it stop. All must ride the wave of engagement, we can\u2019t miss out on the engagement.<\/p>\n After a while it long goes past being funny, goes through the stage of being boring and is now firmly in the actively irritating stage. And it\u2019s every time we win 2 or 3, you can\u2019t escape it Oliver!<\/p>\n It\u2019s just one small example too, it\u2019s the same with everything, all the time, forever. Attention attention attention, engagement engagement engagement. It\u2019s exhausting and I hate it.<\/p>\n I feel like tracking him down and forcibly shaving his head myself, the fuzzy little gimp. The 365 are right, society is hollow. And generally awful these days. \u00a0<\/p>\n \u2026Genuinely worried about how the world is hating because a dude getting a haircut has gotten more coverage than most of them will ever in their lives. There is one simple fact, and that fact is, United have only two things to play for this season, the CL qualification spots, and that guy getting a haircut. There are no cups, no nothing left in this early disaster of a season, and the fact that if and when United do end up getting 5 wins in a row, it will get more hype than when City won the treble. That shows two different sides of a coin, how big and massive United are and everything they do is always at a different level. And the level that United are that this is their biggest aim they can have currently..<\/p>\n And for a website that cries about how the game has gotten away from the fans (lookin at you Johnny), there is sure a lot of crying about a fan making it big through passion, support and genuine intentions with no clickbaiting or spreading of hate Always rather have this guy be rich and famous than any of the AFTV clowns and other clickbaiting channels and fans of each club.<\/p>\n Rooney is hating cause he never had hair, and that is understandable.<\/p>\n
