Being on the back foot and parkin the bus (as you implying) is two different things tho Kurps. And tbh, i didn't expect anything different seeing that Real was the home team (by rights they had to attack and put on a show)

In Old Trafford tho.....

United report financial boost

Manchester United's profits rose by 74% for the second half of 2012 as the Premier League leaders announced financial results that included an increase in income and a reduction in the club's debt.

United's debts stood at £366.6 million on December 31, down from £439 million 12 months earlier, partly because of the club's partial flotation on the New York Stock Exchange in an Initial Public Offering (IPO).

Their pre-tax profit for the six months up until December was £22.3 million, whereas it had been £12.8 million for the corresponding period in 2011.

United's revenue rose 8.7% to £110.1 million, with commercial revenue up 29% and sponsorship revenue up 48% as the club gained six new sponsors.

However, matchday revenue decreased from £36 to £35 million and staff costs rose by more than 10% to £84.5 million after a period in which United signed Robin van Persie and Shinji Kagawa, awarded players new contracts and increased their commercial staff.

United also gained complete control of their television channel, MUTV, by buying out their partners, BSkyB.

Ed Woodward, the club's executive vice-chairman, said: "Manchester United achieved record revenue and record adjusted EBITDA [Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation] in the second quarter driven by our commercial operation, which continues to experience extremely strong growth particularly in sponsorship.

"In addition, our acquisition of BSkyB's one-third stake in Manchester United's global television channel, MUTV, will be key in expanding our media business in the future."

United expect to record revenue of between £350 million and £360 million for the 2013 fiscal year.

Business going well for United

nice

[*OUTSIDER*]

Full Time: QPR 0-2 Man Utd ... Rafael, Giggs

Ryan Giggs scores on his 999th appearance as a footballer! A TRUE LEGEND!!!

[1UZFE]

15 pts on top....

[Racers Edge]

nice win, could have and should have been more though... apart from the pass to Giggsy what did Wellbeck contribute to that game... it is simply beyond me to understand what SAF sees in him....

[1UZFE]

nice win, could have and should have been more though... apart from the pass to Giggsy what did Wellbeck contribute to that game... it is simply beyond me to understand what SAF sees in him....

Welbeck workrate is immense.. SAF respects that..
This game though Wellers, and Young was rel crap.. Should have started Ando instead of Giggs who was kinda crap as well.. But a win neways....

[Racers Edge]

Dude did you see the number of times Wellbeck lost the ball without any pressure on him. I think it was the RM game, he was in the box by himself and kick the ball out!!!!! I almost faint.....

[dan80]

That's right. Overlook the good and focus on the bad...

Btw the 12pt lead over Man City dozen look too bad (y)

[Racers Edge]

but dan it real hard to see the few good over the so many bad. But it have other players on the fringe that his inclusion is keeping out, Macheda for one....

[dan80]

i personally doh think macheda better than welbz. Probably better wrt technical abillity, but nothing else (that's just my opinion)

[Racers Edge]

but wellbeck has been given an extended run....frederico hasn't. What abour Bebe, is he a striker or mid-fielder?

[Racers Edge]

All righty then...all systems go for Tuesday... comfortable victory today... Kagawa looks in great form... I hope Phil Jones can start. GGMU!!!!

[*OUTSIDER*]

United 4 Norwich 0... Norwich defense was real hard to crack in the 1st half... Shinji Kagawa is the first player from Asia to score a Premier League hat-trick.. Next up Los Blancos!!! #GGMU

[1UZFE]

Evra was a beast today.. Love to see d old Paddy..
DDG looked sharp although he had no work. '
Could see a Vida and Rio combination Tuesday..

[*OUTSIDER*]

De Gea has not conceded in 447 minutes in the league now. Fourth clean sheet in a row !...

Yup I think Vida & Rio will combine...

This is my pick for Tuesday

[dan80]

^Carrick will have to play

[dan80]

but wellbeck has been given an extended run....frederico hasn't. What abour Bebe, is he a striker or mid-fielder?

Bebe is sheit. Daz what he is lol. Btw Fergie likes players with a high work rate that is the reason welbeck featuring so much...same reason why he get rid of Berbatov even though berbz is a quality player

[Racers Edge]

dan so why they buy Bebe then?

Outsider i like your team except Anderson, Carrick in good nick right now... and I still believe in Nani...

[dan80]

Cuz Carlos Quieroz (you should knw who that is) recommended him to Fergie. Neither SAF or United scouts EVER see Bebe play before prior to buying him.

Ize still scratch my head about that transfer cuz nothing about it does make sense to me

Then again...Bebe might come good one day
