According to a recent YouTube upload by Manchester United fan channel The United Stand, presenter Mark Goldbridge has hinted that the Red Devils have been backed into a corner with their appointment of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the club ‘cannot’ sack him – prompting a frustrated reaction from a set of supporters.
The reaction comes after Solskjaer’s side dropped more points against lower opposition at the weekend, losing 2-0 at Premier League bottom side Watford with high-flying Newcastle next on the agenda for Boxing Day.
United currently lie eighth in the table, winning two out of their last five, with both of those victories coming against Tottenham and bitter rivals Manchester City.
Now, after a devastating loss heading into the last stretch of December, presenter Goldbridge hinted on the United Stand that the Norwegian gaffer is ‘unsackable’ due to the owners being ‘backed into a corner’.
In response, Red Devils supporters fumed at Ed Woodward, the Glazers and the situation overall, here’s what they had to say on Twitter.
Woodward has watched this rot on his watch cap in hand to glazers. Moyes was not a bad manager, van gaal was not a bad manager, mourinho was not a bad manager and now they are making ole a stooge. Don’t be fooled, ole is not the problem at utd. Glazers out, Woodward out.

They can sack him but they don’t want to because he is like a shield for them
