Ridsdale, speaking on Thursday at the official unveiling of United's £5million state-of-the-art academy, said: "This is now 'no excuse time' because, when you see the facilities the players have, there aren't any excuses.

"Apart from the fact they are all very well paid individuals, they are all now very well looked after individuals.

"If any of them are listening back through there, on Saturday I would like three points please and let's get back to putting our season together."
