EPL: Ridiculous decision, things are getting worse – Paul Scholes blasts Man Utd owners

Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes has hit out at the club’s new owners amid the Red Devils’ form so far this season.

The former England international also branded the decision to raise match-day ticket prices as ‘ridiculous’.

Scholes said Man United owners have not made one positive change since taking over at Old Trafford.

According to him, things have only got worse at Man United since the INEOS takeover last year.

“The [INEOS Group] have been in charge for nearly a year now and everything is still negative,” Scholes said on Sky Bet’s The Overlap.

“I can’t think of something positive that they’ve done for the football club.

“Things are getting worse on the football pitch so couldn’t they have just said that they’d do cheaper tickets – couldn’t they just give us something positive.

“How can you ask Manchester United fans to pay more money with what’s on the football pitch.

“£66 for a ticket is ridiculous. If you think of Manchester, there are so many deprived areas and Sir Jim Ratcliffe himself is from Failsworth – which is a deprived area.

“If you take one kid with you, that’s £120, if you take a family, you’re looking at £300-400 – it’s not right.”
