Manchester United chairmen Joel and Avram Glazer have indicated that they intend to move the club to China if they fail to make the top four this year.
The Glazers are said to have sent a messenger boy to deliver a wax-sealed message to club management informing them of imminent redundancy should the club face another season without Champions League football. Staff were told that leaving for China has to be better than playing freezing Thursday night Europa League games in Kazakhstan - or home games in Manchester, for that matter.
The news comes just days after it was revealed that referee Mark Clattenburg has signed a lucrative four-year contract to perform in the Chinese Super League, where he already has a large cult following and his own brand of refereeing accessories.
