Yep, my dear late mum used to use the phrase "I don't need to know the ins and outs of the cats arse" if someone was giving her unnecessary details about something!I assume they are referring to cats arse. I prefer Medlar’s, known as dogs arse (cul de chien)

What do you reckon, one more, a striker (or two)???

Its the financial world we have to live in, even the Man U women's manager has quit due to funding cuts, welcome to the reality
I'll be boring now!! 95% of fans understand why it was done.
Now the way in which it was, was probably never repeated at ANY other league club.
And they have apologised for that twice (that we know of).
It’s time to move on. If people don’t want to, they should suggest a women’s fans forum where they can go in to every detail with Paul Byrne and Simon Hallett. I’d rather hear from Derek Adams on what is going to happen with the men’s team this season.
I can't be arsed if I'm honest after watching previous events it's all staged and lip service these days
I disagree with this.
The last FF informed us of the looming black hole and the implication that SH has to put his hand in his pocket again. It also outlines the income into the club and the tv financial impact of relegation.
Useful updates on FP have come through these evenings as well.
It is also a chance for fans to see DA and Tom Cleverley up close and understand that we are well led and professional.
The main problem with the women’s team is that if SH doesn’t feel like funding it himself then it doesn’t get funded.
Admittedly, the same is true for the men’s team as well but that is still something he is prepared to stump his own cash up to support.
Essentially, outside of the social media black out and the poor communication, the only question that can be asked for the womens team is
“Mr H, you have spent and lost hundreds of thousands of pounds on the womens team. Why aren’t you prepared to lose more?”
The forums have been informative about spending in the past but not spending in the future , and what the "black hole" is.
Apparently as of a couple of weeks ago they were considering 29 applications for ODSE approval. I suspect they are being very careful over the approval of the first ownership changes. The delays are no doubt causing immense frustration to clubs subject of prospective new ownership and investment.
The Bolton investment is an interesting one as the main investor Tim Leiweke was indicted by the US Justice Department for alleged stadium bid rigging but was personally pardoned by Donald Trump. Wonder how that aligns with the ODSE tests!
They are also dealing with the Derby one which has been in since May and involves Saudi investment.
But you can be arsed to come on here and have a moan
My question would be, "Are you getting fed up with apologising".
That will be a big test with all ther ‘sportswashing’ allegations and objection by Amnesty International with a decision reported to be this week.
