Ratcliffe avoids FA charge for immigration comments
""colonised by immigrants""
""Sir Jim made his statement and the club made a statement on the back of it. It is not my place to add to that.""
""I have travelled the world and know what this club means to an awful lot of people. I am fully aware of the responsibility, and we try to carry that out every day.""
Sir Jim Ratcliffe will not face formal Football Association disciplinary charges but received a reminder about conduct after saying the United Kingdom had been "colonised by immigrants". The FA reviewed whether the remarks brought the game into disrepute and opted to issue a reminder rather than pursue charges. The comments prompted widespread criticism, including from the prime minister and several supporter groups. Ratcliffe apologized, saying his language had "offended some", and Manchester United highlighted ongoing inclusion and community initiatives. Interim head coach Michael Carrick declined to escalate the matter, emphasized equality, diversity and respect, and wore a Unite for Access badge to support disabled supporters.
