🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Gary Neville’s The Overlap has struck a deal to buy Mark Goldbridge’s YouTube channels. 👀
A seven-figure fee has been paid for The United Stand and That’s Football.
🗣️ Gary Neville: "We are building what we believe will become one of the most exciting Independent football communities in the world – one that gives fans direct, personality-led content.
'The United Stand and That's Football are two of the best-known football channels on YouTube, and our intention is to develop them into the most compelling Manchester United and football news channels in the market'."
🗣️ Mark Goldbridge: 'I've spent the last 10 years building The United Stand for Manchester United fans and That's Football for all fans, and I'm prouder of that than anything I've ever done. This deal is about what comes next."

Thrilled to be working with @Channel4 on a new documentary on Keir Starmer's govt. It'll examine how he became the most unpopular PM on record and how the seeds of the unpopularity were sown long ago. And whether he can recover.
Out end of March!

Breaking: I'm told the Treasury are preparing a pubs-specific business-rates u-turn within days...
The Chancellor commissioned research on the impact of rates on pubs before Christmas, and is expected to come forward with more support specifically for struggling boozers, as early as next week.
Expected to specifically look at the *calculation of business rates* as well as licencing freedoms, as the PM said to me earlier this week...
