In fact, the work permit problems wasn't Beardsley, that was Bosnich.... Who we all forgot about in terms of re-signing. He was after Sealey. Forgot totally about that one.

Think that you're getting a little mixed up, there. Beardsley's English. Why would he need a work permit to play for an English club?
He went to play in Canada, so he probably needed a permit for that, but it would have never stopped him playing for us. Anyway, to answer the original question, it was Bosnich, apparently. |

We'd signed him from the White Caps, and he returned not six months later. Was about to post a wrong time fact of his stay in Vancouver for his second spell, but checked on Wiki first. However, I'd no idea that it was Jimmy Murphy who had told Atkinson to sign Beardsley, not a bad talent spotter that, probably one of the last players he recommended to the club I guess.

On a separate topic, a question for those more knowledge then myself, was Mark Hughes the last person that we re-signed??
So, if or when this Pogba deal goes through, he would be the first since Sparky, would that be correct? |

Fairly certain you knew the answer before you asked the inaccurate question to be honest.

I was not 100% certain, hence why I wanted to ask here, amongst the more knowledgeable people, I am not in the habit of asking questions that I already for certain know the answer to.

Hardly busted, I didn't realise that I had previously posted that particular question before, but thank you for bringing it to my attention.
I cannot remember every single post that I have made here on DS, especially those going back a few years. |

The line-up was tweeted by the club's official twitter account which is the source.

What if Batty hadn't seen the club's original tweet, which they subsequently deleted and had to re post as they made a mess of the substitutes? Thus the use of another source.
Sorry for any confusion.

To avoid any confusion, the Original source was the person in the press office who typed out the team sheet and then posted it on twitter..

For example if @LancasterTiger996 tweeted that Cameron had resigned following the EU referendum, the source for Cameron resigning isn't @LancasterTiger996. You don't hear news organisations announce 'Mick tells us there's been an explosion in Cairo'. Besides line-ups are announced they don't need citations, it's not sourced information it's shared information widely distributed, which doesn't require acknowledgement. Else every goal we see scored on TV we might as well say "According to BT Sport, Chelsea have taken the lead" or "It's half time (via MUTV)" Just seemed a really odd thing to do. |

So it seems that Sneijder is playing for Galatasary, I wonder if he will swap shirts with anyone, and we will finally get to see him in a United shirt, after all of these links with us!
Take a look at @Galatasaray's Tweet: https://twitter.com/Galatasaray/stat...035793408?s=09 |

Surely the original source is the manager who picked the team in the first place?

Rooney is once more showing why he doesn't deserve to be in our squad.

He doesn't usually play better though, he's been at a low level for a year or two now.
