EXCL: Dan Ashworth taking Newcastle United to arbitration in bid to resolve Manchester United move. No agreement between #MUFC & #NUFC to break impasse so set to be decided by third party; expected to start in May + take a number of weeks @TheAthleticFC
 
I stumbled upon Kieran McKenna on the Internet and I went to see how's he doing with Ipswich. Then I saw their game against Soton, and their left back was unplayable. Went to check and his name is Leif Davis, soon to be 25 years old and he has 20 assists in 40 games for Ipswich. That is phenomenal. Guess which club could use 'potentially' a new manager and a lb?
 
Go on Jim lad 😁 bout time we sorted this mess out!

#mufc staff have been left dismayed by a decision taken by Ineos, the club’s new co-owners, to cancel the traditional perks for the FA Cup final. [@TimesSport]

In the past, the 1,100-strong #mufc workforce would receive free tickets — with senior staff and directors able to take friends and family — plus travel to and from Wembley, a pre-match lunch, an after-match party and hotel accommodation in London.

On Thursday, however, staff received an email detailing how they would receive only one ticket — with the same limit applied to directors — and would have to pay £20 for coach travel to and from Wembley on the day of the game. All the other benefits have gone. [@TimesSport]

Well after ETH embargoed presser. Any player out of contract end of season Varane included won’t be getting a new deal.

Also confirmed he’s had issues with Rashford work ethic this season and has had words internally about it recently.
 
Also Andy Mitten and David Ornstein on there latest podcasts are saying Ineos will be having a long overdue clear out of squad and wages this summer.
 
I want to know what the heck he is telling Anthony and Garnacho to do coz they sure aren't looking for Hojlund with their passes. Wingers should cross the ball not go for goal themselves.
Should be a balance tbh. But the STR at OT have been working a graveyard shift for years

Maybe I'm old and grumpy? But football seems to be eating itself with it's overcomplicated approach these days.
It's a convoluted mess of "inverted this" and "False Nine" that.

It's like drugs... People need more, more more... Give me new stuff!! Evolve!! Give me more things to insta about.

Just play f.ucking football lads.
 
It’s really hard to keep defending this manager. Think it could be time to make the break.

Devastating for Utd as they just could not afford to not be in next season's expanded CL.

As if the club wasn't in enough S to start with, that set's them back even further financially.

Not sure how he survives that into a third year.
 
BREAKING: To further enhance Jason Wilcox’s assessments in the coming weeks and months there is a plan to recruit an experienced fitness coach. In addition to the FA’s Head of Performance Steve Kemp, Bayern’s Holger Broich has also been named, who has worked with Ten Hag before, sources confirmed. [

Overall, there is a very positive mood around Carrington with Jason Wilcox having met people all around the complex. In private, he has acknowledged that the tactical ineptitude of the playing squad is for the most part a direct consequence of the injuries sustained to players in crucial positions for the playing style intended.

EXCLUSIVE: Erik ten Hag and his staff feel that the lack of technical and communicational support from those previously and currently above has left him out to dry and have left him vulnerable to media and fan scrutiny this season, I’m told. There have been many things happening behind the scenes - most of which were out of Ten Hag’s hands - but he’s been left to deal with the consequences.

EXCLUSIVE:

He Wilcox has been on the training ground during sessions to assess the intensity using metrics previously used in the academy of Manchester City, I’m informed.

Looking at reports this morning from various sources. Looks like Ineos and the new guys that Ineos have brought in especially Wilcox are understanding of the issues ETH has had to face at the club and this season. And will be given another chance.
 
U18s lost 1-3 yesterday. Most the team that just won the league and the cup didn’t feature and was nearly all u16s players.


Neithan Barbosa scored for the u16s in their 2-1 win vs Sunderland — also listed on the bench for the U18s. Siem Eyob-Abraha with the other.


The U13s beat Liverpool and face Man City today in the Nationals Final. Kickoff 12:45 BST.
 
Commiserations to our U13s, who finished second in the U13 International Tournament yesterday after final defeat vs City.

Regardless, valuable experience and good work done to make it into the final after wins vs Liverpool and Chelsea.

Well done boys 👏
