At least they hired football guys like Berrada, Wilcox and Vivell   The Ed Woordward era was pure horror for us fans

They could have saved themselves a lot of headache if they had gone with proper footballing guys when they bought a stake in MU   Instead start with sporting guys not related to football.   Finally have a few football guys, but the squad got a lot of the nonsense they spent money on without thinking.
