#877 | Ed and Wayne skip the usual NQAT awards ceremony and dive into the end-of-season mailbag instead. Bruno Fernandes was Player of the Year, obviously. THat's all. Answering questions from listeners, they discuss the club's financial struggle and speculate about the complexities of offloading unwanted players. Concerns over failed transfers, management inefficiencies, and the club's declining global brand are also highlighted. Questions also dive into historical failures in recruitment and ponder the worst players signed by Sir Alex Ferguson. Also, there's a strangely long discussion about who would win a wheelbarrow race among footballing brothers.

Possible player sales and financial maneuvers, including the women's team valuation and a contentious post-season tour, are examined for their roles in stabilising the club's economic health.

#872 | Ed and Dominic look forward to the Europa League final in Bilbao, where United and Spurs face off for an oversized trophy and a place in next season's Champions League. For the Reds this is a path to growth and redemption; an accelerant to Ruben Amorim's faltering time in charge. Defeat will leave the club £100m short in the summer transfer market and without any European football next season. The game's importance really cannot be overstated.

#868 | This was once a proud club for whom finishing third was a disaster. Now each week brings a new defeat and a shrug of the shoulders. Defeat to West Ham is bad enough, but the thing about giving up on the league is that Ruben Amorim is losing credibility by the week. Everything - the whole season and a few years to come - is on the Europa League final but if United lose that the manager will have less than zero bank of credit available and once again the club will be in the situation of having to spend to back manager who we don’t know will be here by November. Ed and Dan should be angrier.
