This was incredible. You should have him back. His enthusiasm and knowledge is infectious
The guy is all over the place and thinks that Franco is still Spain's dictator.
Would have loved Crick to do the Manscaped read
Nice to hear someone call it as it was and is
I LOVE when you all have older fans on and just talk about United history. It’s always enlightening and we learn something new. Thank you Michael Crick
Michael Crick is an absolute legend! 😀
When Boris Johnson walks into a room, sees you and tries to get you thrown out, you know you're one of the good guys
Really interesting Brew, even if it doesn’t get the clicks of some others, it’s appreciated
Wow what a beautiful interview! So wonderful to hear more about united from South Africa 🇿🇦 so we don’t get to know all this ❤
Fair play to admit with hindsight on his side that he wished the sky takeover had gone through. Roger Taylor from Queen also put capital in to fight sky as his son supported United.
Roger Taylor gave Walsh/shareholders united £10k. They used £6k of it to book Bridgewater hall where us shareholders weren’t allowed in.
Loved this. We always speculate over this stuff but it's good to hear from someone who was around & involved at the time. Equally him reeling off history was good.If we don't get old chaps like this on the podcast the history kinda just fades away into the past.
Absolutely fascinating lads, get him in a room with Sir Jim 👌
Quality work, excellent, really appreciate this, thank you
Great interview 👏🏻
I got interviewed by RTE news in the 90s coming out of school about that takeover
Why did they interview someone i Ireland ? I don’t get that ? Because old owners was Irish ? That’s weird.
@@leroygunnerman6340why not?
Rte news is irish. They interviewed irish kids as UTD were huge in ireland at the time. It was just the times we were in. Nothing got to do with owners etc
@@MrJammydodger20 I was winding him up 😂
@@GarethE94 it was sarcasm mate .
One of them interviews that mightn’t do the same views as a transfer podcast but an interview that every united fan should watch, brilliant lads 👍
9:20 oh thank goodness that never happened right 😂 the glazers did exactly that
This was a breath of fresh air. Thanks
Hell of an episode. Probably learnt more from this than every Brew episode combined!
I remember those days in 1998/99 and the campaign leading to the MMC decision. A pity we could not do the same in 2003/05
Absolutely brilliant lads ! Thank you Michael ! 🙏🏻
great watch
This was a great interview
Great guest.
I remember it well . Great times 😄 cracking video lads 👍🏻
I am old enough to remember this. Please write the book Michael!
It was good being part of Shareholders United, shame there wasn't enough of us. I thought it would lead to something, I started off being part of MUST too but the asked for my money back (which was from the Shares after the takeover) because MUST frustrated me.
Fantastic, great guest!
Ended up with Glazers lol
It’s mad, cos they ban our takeover but let states on other teams
I don’t like how he is referring to the gaffer as Ferguson NGL
You probably know he wrote a warts and all biography on Ferguson. Great read.
Amazing how different the footballing world would have been had this happened. We’ll never know if it actually would have been better or worse for us.
If Crick is working on something involving you, you better have your house in order.
Thats English media?
I never knew Michael Crick was a red 😊
He's omnipresent at away games. Very visible, as recently as Newport and Luton.
As is his political journalist colleague, Nick Robinson.
I was one of those 28,000. Shareholders United / MUST felt more like a union, but one that didn’t listen to its members. There were 19 that I knew personally (and still speak to) and we weren’t listened to at all in 98. Did we know what Sky would do with us? No. Did we think it would lead to another bid from someone worse? Yes. We were right. I still blame them for the glazers. We still want a proper audit of what their letters full of leading questions actually said, because it probably wasn’t what they went to the government with. Interesting to hear he was concurrently writing a book about Murdoch, so there was obviously no conflict of interest… pr*ck. Him and Walsh.
GLAZER OUT
No offence but a lot of people only agree and talk positively about things once they've heard it from someone else like this. People talk about owning United like it's completely alien and suddenly their opinion changes because someone or something official says so. Such is the way the majority of people are
Don’t mention that bloody horse
That horse! I remember this clearly.
Sad fact is the Glazers screwed us up. Folks seem to have forgotten what bastards this family are of recent.
SAF is totally culpable, via the horse racing crap he was involved with, for allowing those Glazer bastards in.
@@neilharrison01culpable, but it’s not like he knew what was going to happen and that it’s all his fault. It’s like saying hitlers parents are culpable for his crimes
Stops BSkyB gets us the Glazers .... Well done 🥴🖕
Where tf were youll during glazers take over😂😂😂😂
First by the way 😊
It’s 2024 mate, at least that’s what I was told when I was first 😂
@@ryanpitt8671 I was right chuffed! 😂
IVE NEVER SEEN THIS GIMP ON A EURO EVER
Probably doesn't frequent Irish bars or similar places that you go to on euro aways.
Fascinating. Just highlights what a complete shit show this club has been at board level for 60 years. Where would we be with a decent board now ?
Glazers sux
Mongs
PLEASE DONT BOW DOWN TO THESE MONGS
FC UNITED MONGS
Calm down ya fud
So this clown ensured the Glazers were able to step in and buy the club? Great, nice work 😢👍
Unfair to hold him accountable, clearly would’ve tried to stop them if he could
That's an incredibly strange take away from it.... very childish take on it tbh
@@matthewbestwick1579 Welcome to the comment section
So we’ve got a guy who’s a journalist first and United fan second campaigning about the future! What a fucking joke
Doesn't job and earning money comes first and foremost?
Thats all whats left of the British media.
@@puddingpan obviously it’s important having a job but I was brought up putting the club first. Sorry but he’s set out his allegiance to journalism 😂😂
British waffler of the highest order 😂
Fox news is great, factual and entertaining
We can blame the Glazers, but the first event in our downward spiral was the appointment of David Moyes, who SAF recommend. We need roy keane in the backroom staff at the club to ruffle some feathers and give all the players a reality check and what it takes and truly means to play for manchester united. Instead we have the dinosaur whalley with a brolly Steve Maclaren 🤦
True but we had many years to correct it.Our stadium 🏟 inferstructure be left to rot .
@@suse8270 The stadium is just an excuse to criticize the Glazers with. For me the lack of atmosphere is more worrying. Our aging stadium wasn't a problem when we beat Liverpool a few weeks back, because it was rocking with boisterous passionate fans. Teams like Napoli, inter, ac milan play in even sitting stadiums. We have too many incompetent all round wrong people at the club. From boardroom and coaching level to the players themselves. We have had 10 years plus to rectify things but keep making the wrong decisions. We should never have sacked Jose and even considering bringing in southgate is a disgrace.
