Manchester United Football Club Closes Staff Canteen at Old Trafford

Manchester United Football Club (MUFC) co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, has made the decision to close down the staff canteen at Old Trafford as part of his cost-cutting measures. Instead of free lunches, the staffers will now be offered fruit, according to a report in The Guardian.

The staff canteen is set to be shut down by the end of the week. Currently, employees have access to free hot meals, tea, and coffee with some drinks being charged for. A similar change is expected to take place at United’s Carrington training base, where only players will receive free lunch, while non-playing staff will be offered soup and bread.

Sir Ratcliffe’s cost-cutting measures aim to address losses exceeding £300 million over the past three years. The club announced a transformation plan on Monday (Feb 24) with the goal of returning to profitability and ensuring a solid financial foundation for investment in men’s and women’s football success and improved infrastructure.

Sir Ratcliffe’s Cost-Cutting Tactics

This move is not the first time Sir Ratcliffe’s cost-cutting measures have affected employees. In a previous instance, he reduced annual funding to the Association of Former Manchester United Players (AFMUP) by £40,000. The charity used the funds for events where ex-players and others associated with the club could interact.

United’s chief executive informed the AFMUP trustee about the funding cut. Additionally, United’s new board scaled back on staff perks for the FA Cup final, requiring employees to pay for travel and accommodation expenses.

United captain Bruno Fernandes offered to cover the costs out of his own pocket, but his proposal was turned down. These cost-cutting measures reflect Sir Ratcliffe’s efforts to streamline operations and lead the club to financial stability.
