Manchester United’s fans delivered their own verdict on the performance [against Bournemouth] as Michael Carrick disappeared down the tunnel to the dressing room.<\/p>\n

After repeatedly singing the former midfielder’s name, as soon as he was out of view they turned on the players. <\/p>\n

The booing lasted until the last of them, Diogo Dalot, left the pitch. They simply feel they are either not good enough or don’t care enough, or both.<\/p>\n

But there was more, much more.<\/p>\n

The game was less than a minute old when the first anti-Glazer and anti-Sir Jim Ratcliffe songs were heard.<\/p>\n

The Glazer family have been public enemy number one among the United faithful ever since their leveraged takeover in 2005.<\/p>\n

The debt they initially landed on the club has now grown to over \u00a31.15bn, according to their latest accounts. The amount it has cost in interest is \u00a3852m, according to respected football finance blogger Swiss Ramble. In the last financial year, the interest payment was \u00a337m, an increase from \u00a334m the previous year.<\/p>\n

The argument is, that money could have been used far more productively to sign better players.<\/p>\n

There had been hope Ratcliffe, a boyhood United fan, would change that when he struck a deal with the Glazers to become a minority shareholder on Christmas Eve 2023.<\/p>\n

Instead, a succession of decisions have led to major questions over his handling of the club.<\/p>\n
