🗣️ The presenter said: "Someone was training to learn how to use the ticker and to put text on the ticker, so they were just writing random things no in earnest, and that comment appeared, so apologies if you saw that and you were offended." Image
🙈 This was the last thing United needed just two days after bringing their worst-ever Premier League season to a desperate end with a 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace. Image
Do you think #ManchesterUnited are rubbish? #MUFC
