From the source
Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s Ineos became part-owners of Man Utd in 2024, and the problem he identified immediately upon arrival is because of him now. It will sound like an exaggeration, but Man Utd’s competitive results have been worse under Ineos than they were under the Glazers when they controlled footballing matters.
A fluke run to third place doesn’t excuse the 2024/25 season and the current run, as the owners face a decision to sack the Man Utd manager again.
Thus, it becomes clear that Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s comment in 2024 has aged like wine, in the worst possible way for the Ineos chief. Ineos enjoyed a lot of fan support in their early months as Man Utd fans were up for anyone but the Glazers, but that novelty has now worn off.
