Don't see a problem with it. You look at unnecessary costs and how to reduce them. Cutting staff is one thing. This is entirely more sensible. |  | |  |

If some of the reports are anything to go by, Bruno Fernandes tried to pay for stuff like this and was told he wasn't allowed to as it would make them look bad.
Honestly, it seems petty. |  |

They're coming across a bit like us under Evans, only on a bigger scale, right now. |  |

My take is, if they win, we will celebrate the European trophy win, but win the Champions league and you get the full parade and everything else, also Utd only 15,000 tickets for club and fans seems very small. But it is probably just a case of Utd saving money. |  | | |

Is it more a public message on what classes as proper success there, and not indulging a group that have mostly performed far below expectations? I prefer the skinflint angle but it wasn't my first thought when I heard this. |  | | |

Having worked for multi-million pound businesses and been rewarded with nothing more than a tshirt (with the company logo) and wine that makes your eyes twitch, my hearts not breaking for them. Plus a bbq sounds great.
When they have to play office Kahoot I’ll have some sympathy. |  |

When Spurs were in the UEFA Cup in 1973, manager Bill Nicholson promised the players' wives that if they got to the final - which was then two-legged - the club would put them up in the finest hotel in the city of the opposing club. Reach the final they did. Playing Wolves. |  | | |

On flicking through instagram the other day I found a bloke who’s a personal chef to a Man City player.
Wife and I then couldn’t make our minds up on what he’d get paid. I said £100 a meal… she said ‘he might as well eat out at a posh restaurant every meal instead of paying £300 a day for a cook’
Thoughts? |  |

If he ate out at a posh restaurant every night, he'd soon be the size of a house with all the added salt, sugar and butter. |  |

I would hazard a guess it is an older player with injury issues intent on prolonging his career, De Bruyne ? | | | |

A club prioritising tickets for fans not staff you say...hmm let me ponder how our fans would react to that ;)
And a bbq, free food, drinks, beer allows everyone from the players to clubs staff to take part in a relaxed setting, not really seeing the issue there either.
As for a bus parade, did they do one when Mourinho won it ? If not there's your answer | | | |
