'Rusty and rotting' Old Trafford has seen mice on the pitch, a leaky roof and a £200m renovation rejected... the Glazers have left Manchester United's iconic stadium in decay and embarrassed by their rivals

It's nicknamed 'the Theatre of Dreams' but as Gary Neville has repeatedly pointed out over the last couple of weeks, the cold reality is that Old Trafford is anything but.

That's not because of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's failure to deliver a Premier League title to Manchester United fans. Neville has no element of doubt about it - it is the fault of the Glazers, who he says have left the venue 'rusty and rotting'.

At surface level, Old Trafford appears to be a fantastic stadium and its capacity of 76,000 is the highest in the Premier League.
