On May 18, at Wembley Stadium, Manchester United Women’s team played their final match of the season. However, they lost 0-3 to Chelsea in the FA Cup final. Many senior leaders of Manchester United were present at this match, but Ratcliffe’s absence became noticeable.

Last season, the British billionaire also did not attend the FA Cup Women’s final, when Manchester United beat Tottenham 4-0. Since taking over Manchester United, businessman Ratcliffe has been criticized for being indifferent to the women’s team.

When asked about Ratcliffe’s absence, Manchester United Women’s coach Marc Skinner replied: “To be honest, I don’t know why he wasn’t there. But many other important members of the club were there. General manager Omar Berrada was there, the Glazer family, technical director Jason Wilcox was there.”

Asked if he expected an explanation for Ratcliffe’s absence, Skinner said: “I won’t get an explanation. I’m here to work with the team, but I feel the club is still supporting us well.”

Previously, billionaire Ratcliffe caused dissatisfaction with the Manchester United men’s team, when players were only given a small number of tickets for relatives to watch the Europa League final. Each player was only given two tickets, which made many of the “Red Devils” stars unhappy.

Many players believe that they should be treated better for their contributions to the club, including helping MU reach the Europa League final this year.

Previously, the “Red Devils” leadership required youth team coaches and logistics staff to buy their own tickets if they wanted to watch the match. Coach Ruben Amorim had to pay for tickets for 30 MU staff out of his own pocket.
