Manchester United fans have revealed their disdain for
the manner in which former coach David Moyes was sacked, and the way the club’s
owners have managed the club in recent years.
The decision to fire Moyes was leaked to journalists on
Monday afternoon ahead of the official announcement on Tuesday morning, which
left United fans fuming at the club’s handling of the decision.
"Obviously it is wrong to brief journalists the day
before and not speak to the manager himself,” spokesman of the Manchester United
Sean Bones told Sky Sports News.
"Manchester United has a lot of style and class and
we don't do things that way and to me this is typical behaviour of the Glazer
family. We do things with style, class and dignity.
"I'm not saying he should have stayed in the job. It
was a risky decision when they appointed him as he was not proven at the
highest level.
"But that decision was ultimately down to the Glazer
family. They may have spoken to Sir Alex and other people within the club but
if it was the wrong decision it was the Glazer family's decision."
Bones then continued his harsh criticism of the club’s
owners.
"Now they have buried this club in debt,” he said.
“Look at Manchester City, their owners are pumping money into that team, the
Glazers haven't invested in United at the correct times.
"When they took over we were a PLC and we invested
in all the best players, players like Rooney, Ronaldo, Ferdinand and the
Glazers gained the benefit of that huge investment. Since then they have
starved the club of investment and haven't gone for the best players available.
"Before they took over we were the No 1 club in the
world, now we are fourth and that has to change. We now need a manager who is
proven at the very highest level, otherwise it is a gamble.”
Bones has singled out Borussia Dortmund manager Jurgen
Klopp as the fans’ favourite to replace Moyes.
"Jurgen Klop appears to be the supporters' choice.
Obviously at Manchester United we deserve the very best manager," he said.
