Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s unlucky Man Utd record revealed as he endures soaked Old Trafford while Glazer sees trophy lifted
SIR Jim Ratcliffe was at Old Trafford to see his side lose to Arsenal.
The new owner and INEOS chief would have been dismayed to have seen his side’s inability in front of goal.
However, it is a sight he might just be use to because of one shocking stat.
Unbelievably, Ratcliffe, 71, is yet to see his side win a game in normal and extra time when he has attended.
From the first game he attended – a 2-2 home draw against Tottenham – to the FA Cup semi-final against Coventry, it’s a dismal run for Ratcliffe.
According to reports, Ratcliffe arrived at Old Trafford five hours before kick off against the Gunners on Sunday.
He was believed to be keen to see United’s match day operations and understand club intricacies for future improvements.
Meanwhile, Avram Glazer was seen in the stands at Wembley enjoying the Women’s FA Cup Final.
The American was spotted alongside Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy for the occasion.
And it was a happier one for Glazer, with Man Utd’s Women running out 4-0 winners on the day.
A wonder strike by Ella Toone set them on their way, before veteran Rachel Williams added a second.
Lucia Garcia scored twice to rub salt into the wounds of Spurs.
Ratcliffe is already making enemies at the club.
SunSport exclusively revealed that the British billionaire has turned the training ground “toxic” after slamming the cleanliness of the facilities.

The part-owner recently sent out a memo to all staff declaring his disappointment after a tour of their HQ.
That came after staff had their FA Cup Final treats of free tickets, travel and lunch revoked to save money.
Our report then also revealed that some staff who had been able to work from home have been told to get into the offices either in Manchester or London.
Ratcliffe claims that email traffic dropped by 20 per cent at one of his other companies when they experimented with Fridays working from home.
