Yeah. Likes of villa park, Goodison park, Anfield are old stadiums but they remain in pristine condition.The Glazers really are disgusting people. The reality is that you can maintain an older stadium and do renovations to it to at least try to keep pace with the more modern stadiums. For example, I've been to Fenway Park and Wrigley park for baseball games in the last few years and despite the fact that these are stadiums were built 3-5 years after Old Trafford so are also well over 100 years old, they are immaculately maintained because the owners understand the responsibility that comes with being custodian to a great sports landmark.
These classic stadiums may not have all of the bells and whistles of more recently built stadiums with cutting edge amenities but the level of disrepair that the Glazers have let Old Trafford fall into is really disgusting and inexcusable. It has nothing to do with it being an old building. It could and should have been renovated and modernized so that you don't have the embarrassment of flooding toilets and a roof that leaks. Even a dirtbag like James Dolan renovated Madison Square Garden recently to the tune of nearly 1 billion dollars because you have to respect historic venues. Just as a fan of football in general even with my disdain for United, I think it's awful and sad the way they've treated Old Trafford.
The glaziers don't even give a ****. This is not a recent stuff, the bathroom has been flooding for years and they refused to do anything about. Ronaldo even said that they still have the same gym equipment they had when he left in 2008 and most of the facilities haven't been modernised.
That's pathetic!
They Glaziers are horrible owners.
