If you are a manchester united fan like i am, u might be wonderin why the club has been sooooo inactive in the transfer market this season.  well i noe i am.  didnt the Glazers promise fergi another rooney come this season? where is he?  how about all the recent talk about bringin el nino to old trafford? the spanish prodigy fernando torres? was all that hype created for nothing?  so many questions and sooo little answers.  the other big 3(arsenal,liverpool and chelsea) have all completed big name signings whilst the treble winners of 1999 have failed to secure the services of anyone.  fergi complains of a lack of transfer funds, but shouldnt thatbe the least of his concerns since the Glazers have already promised at the end of last season that a transfer kitty of 25million pounds for fergi to work his magic with?  and besides, didnt we make off with 12 million british pounds when chelsea compensated us monetary when obi mikel ran off to them when he had already agreed to sign for the red devils?  where has that money gone to?

In the first interview given by a member of the Glazer family, the son of Buccaneers owner Malcolm Glazer told Manchester United's MUTV, "We are going to provide the manager with the resources necessary to field the best team."

resources necessary? what resources? 3 years ago manutd was the richest club in the whole of europe and possibly the world.  where has the money gone now? what trasnfer budget?
