This TV channel was meant to be set up for the fans to voice their opinions and any concerns surrounding the once huge football club Manchester United. Sadly this isn’t the case and the real truth is that the channel is ran like a North Korean TV station where your not allowed to state facts, anything to do with the parasites Glazers is cut off and laughed at by so called Manchester United legends and heros.


When it was formed, the channel existed as a three-way joint venture between Manchester United, [[Granada Television]] and [[Sky plc|BSkyB]]. On 16 November 2007, ITV plc sold its 33.3% stake in MUTV to Manchester United.<ref>[https://www.reuters.com/article/technology-media-telco-SP/idUSL1687427220071116 ITV sells stake in MUTV to Manchester United] Reuters, 16 November 2007</ref> BSkyB followed suit on 22 January 2013, making MUTV 100% owned by Manchester United.<ref>{{cite news |title=MUTV ownership changes |url=http://www.manutd.com/en/News-And-Features/Club-News/2013/Jan/manchester-united-acquires-sky-stake-in-mutv.aspx |publisher=Manchester United F.C. |date=22 January 2013 |access-date=22 January 2013 }}</ref>
