Man Utd forced to re-do Ronaldo tribute exhibition
Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Mon, 07/13/2009 - 12:34
Manchester United are having to perform a makeover of a new exhibition for Cristiano Ronaldo.
The exhibition, months in the making, is still on display although Ronaldo, 24, has left for Real Madrid.
United bosses are trying to save face by calling it a "farewell" appreciation.
A club source told the Mirror: "Months ago it seemed a great idea to have a display for the world footballer of the year.
"No one thought he'd leave as it went on display. It has made everyone look a bit silly. It is embarrassing.
"Fans angry that he left have said it is inappropriate to glorify him. Luckily it will only be on until mid-August."

Jai ho to ronaldo
LOL nobody knew he was going? That's a "real" joke.
Everyone at OT knew he was leaving, they just milked every bit from him before he went. It's just good business. Considering the exhibit is still up despite CR's departure, this goes to show that United are holding on to the belief that there's no such thing as bad publicity.
