In nine of the last 10 years Manchester United have issued their annual financial results in September. However, amid the never-ending takeover saga, there is no sign of this year\u2019s report well into October. Some wonder if the announcement is being delayed to coincide with news on potential new ownership, or whether this is just the latest instance of the Glazer family kicking the can down the road.<\/p>\n
United declined to comment but this is another sign of the uncertainty around Old Trafford. Budgets are tight and long-term projects are virtually off the table until clarity arrives. United have forecasted record revenues of \u00a3640-650million.<\/p>\n
In 2020, investors had to wait until October 21 to see the yearly report, which revealed a \u00a3118.1m loss in revenues thanks largely to the coronavirus pandemic. The club still have several weeks to file before the regulatory cut-off.<\/p>\n

They added: \u2018Our commitment to building a diverse culture remains. She leaves us on good terms and we wish her every success for the future.\u2019<\/p>\n Sela show lights up Newcastle skyline<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n All smiles on Tyneside after Newcastle\u2019s statement 4-1 victory over\u00a0Paris Saint-Germain as the Champions League returned to a delirious St James\u2019 Park. There was also delight at shirt sponsors Sela, the Saudi events firm who put on a drone show that lit up the skies above the city on two consecutive nights.

Judging by the delicate appearance of Matt Fitzpatrick\u2019s bagman, Billy Foster, it would seem that a well-earned good night was had by all. The Yorkshireman was spotted boarding a flight back to Leeds-Bradford the morning after the night before, with witnesses comparing his look to that of Andrew Flintoff, post-England\u2019s 2005 Ashes victory.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Matt Fitzpatrick’s caddy Billy Foster was spotted boarding an early flight back to England<\/p>\n Emma Hayes doubles up<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n An impressive move from Emma Hayes at the recent Legends of Football Dinner.

Quick-thinking Hayes said she was happy to cater for both bidders on separate days, and in an instant doubled the cash raised for charity Nordoff and Robbins.<\/p>\n Paul Pogba searches for defence<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Paul Pogba is having every cream and supplement in his house analysed as he seeks a defence to fight what could be a career-ending doping ban of up to four years.
