Britain's The Sun reported on the 24th (Korea time) 'Manchester United's Ratcliffe cut the club's budget and decided to reduce the amount of food served in restaurants'
The Sun said 'Ratcliffe has attempted a lot of changes internally since his acquisition of Manchester United in February last year. More than 250 people have been laid off, and more employees are set to be laid off. I've also cut my charitable fund, and now I'm trying to suggest a lunch menu as soup and sandwiches for everyone except the first team players. Even recent youth games have saved money by playing outside of their home stadiums, he said.

At the time, British media reported that Manchester United had suspended its Ambassador contract to cut Ferguson's salary by millions of pounds. Ferguson signed a 2.16 million pound (about 3.8 billion won) global ambassador contract immediately after his retirement in 2013. However, the contract, which had been in place for about a decade, was destroyed by Sir Jim Ratcliffe. Manchester United fans were not calm. They had launched a fierce attack on the club's decision to fire Ferguson before Ten Hach.
In addition, various policies are being implemented to improve team efficiency. Employees are also seeing their benefits decrease, starting with policies such as withdrawing executives' corporate cards and prohibiting drivers from hiring drivers. It is changing the working culture of employees and reducing the number of employees. Ratcliffe ordered employees to stop working from home and work on site, and if they didn't comply, he asked them to recognize other companies and even fired them.

Fans and inside the club, with the team's performance falling to 15th place, only excessive reduction policies are underway, and cold reactions are inevitable. It is unclear whether it will be positive to continue saving money without a rebound in grades.
Attention is focusing on whether the emergence of a miser owner beyond the Glazer will improve Manchester United's long-term future or the worst policy that will only cause internal opposition from the club.
