S9 E13: No recipe for success (Palace, 0-1) - with Nathan Thomas

Manchester United Weekly Podcast

A pinch of a hope, two handfuls of doom. That’s no recipe for success. On the Manchester United Weekly Podcast, regular host Harry Robinson is joined, sitting in the shadow of Old Trafford at Hotel Football, by fellow Stretford Ender Nathan Thomas.

In today's show, reaction to a 1-0 defeat to Crystal Palace from the pair, and to United Women's winning return to the WSL. Guess the Player, the Academy Briefing, a preview of Galatasaray and news on a new initiative from the Manchester United Foundation.

DETAILS ON THE FOUNDATION INITIATIVE THAT NATHAN MENTIONS

Manchester United Foundation is asking fans to join them in ensuring local young people can access warm clothing this winter, by donating clean adult and children’s coats at Old Trafford when the Reds take on Brentford on Saturday 7th October.

The Foundation will invest £100,000 in purchasing hats, gloves and scarves, which will be imminently distributed to our participants ahead of the winter period, and is requesting fans to supplement this effort by donating coats at Old Trafford.

Coats that are donated by fans on the day of the Brentford fixture will be redistributed by the Foundation to young people accessing our community and education programmes, and by local poverty charities in Greater Manchester. The Foundation has also identified a charity in Ukraine as an additional beneficiary of the coats received from the appeal.

All donated coats will leave Old Trafford within days of the Brentford game, to ensure the generosity of supporters can be felt by young people in need as soon as possible. The Foundation positively impacted the lives of more than 25,000 young people in the 2022/23 season, operating in the areas of highest social deprivation across Greater Manchester – where almost 250,000 children* are living in poverty.

The winter coat appeal is running for one game only, with fans invited to donate a coat both before and after the game.

Coats can be donated from three hours before kick-off at signposted donation bins next to the five bag drop locations on site at Old Trafford. Donations will also be accepted one hour after full-time. All bag drop locations can be found by clicking here.
