GET TO THE CHOPPER!
How to cure the curse of Manchester United? Big Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s helicopter landed at Carrington on Thursday for a meeting with Ruben Amorim that was always scheduled, according to the club. Yes, apparently it had absolutely nothing to do with a Manchester derby pumping that had early-season optimism draining faster than the United end once Erling Haaland had scored City’s third. It has not been denied team performance was on the agenda. After all, what else could there possibly be to discuss? Now that Big Sir Jim has shunted much of his business interest to the USA USA USA, in recoil at the UK government’s green policies, and was already based off-shore for tax reasons, it is unlikely he and Amorim were discussing the return of Tyrone Dobbs’s mum, previously feared dead, to the cobbles of Coronation Street.
