is this essentially a sort of hyper
capitalist and situation where
essentially you've got the owners
wanting more and more profit more and
more money and because I mean sixth
sixth place that's terrible I suppose
it's terrible in terms of Manchester you
know if you've gone you know the great
days if you've known George best and
Denis Law and Bobby Charlton or if
you've known the record-breaking run of
Sir Alex Ferguson as manager when United
won everything that was in front of them
almost all the time it's quite a
comedown and the humiliation of a 3-1
defeat which could easily have been six
one from Liverpool they're great rivals
on Saturday was the final straw
it's not so much that they're not making
money you could scarcely make more money
than United which is a gigantic
money-making machine a worldwide brand
it's fear that if they don't qualify for
the Champions League which currently
looks way out of sight then that would
be the beginning of a slight right
because nobody's too good to go down
down down the table and then you begin
to worry about losing
