After Manchester United's defeat in the Women's FA Cup final to Chelsea, the absence of minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe drew attention during Marc Skinner's post-match press conference. While other significant figures were present, Ratcliffeâs lack of attendance raised questions about his commitment. Skinner emphasized representation at the event, stating he regularly interacts with team leadership. This absence also sparked irritation among insiders as it drew attention to Ratcliffe that isn't generally focused on owners of other clubs, signaling potential discontent with media narratives surrounding the ownership of the club.
"In all honesty, I don't know why he wasn't here but we were well represented, with Omar [Berrada], the Glazer family and Jason was there as well."
"There is irritation among significant figures at Old Trafford why the focus remains around Ratcliffe and United, when the same does not apply to other clubs."
