The Man Utd co-owner might have saved a few quid with his latest cull but he risks alienating fans who are deeply invested in the club's history

The Man Utd co-owner might have saved a few quid with his latest cull but he risks alienating fans who are deeply invested in the club's history10 months ago was predicated on the idea that United were at last in the hands of one of their own, the reviled Glazer family gradually being edged out by a lifelong supporter from up the road. They know differently now.

The move to dispense with his ambassadorial role appears not only callous but disingenuous. The club’s relationship with Fergie is so deep, United gain from the association anyway. They are still getting the value without the cost., wherever in the world the revered statesman went, people saw the red shirt. Sir Bobby was United. Fergie is so deeply entrenched in Old Trafford culture, he too is recognised as Mr Man U.

Ratcliffe apparently delivered the good news himself in a face-to-face address. That was good of him. He’s all heart.Fergie is said to have accepted it with grace. How else would he have reacted? The man has his pride. Does he have a use? No. Does he have a purpose? No. Does he contribute to outcomes? No. Then he why are we paying this man? Get him off the books.
