After a takeover saga that felt as though it was never going to end, the deal between United and Ratcliffe was finalised in February, with the club issuing a statement on their website at 9.15pm on February 20.
The statement revealed that Ratcliffe had acquired 25 per cent of the club's Class B shares and 25 per cent of the club's Class A shares.
On becoming United co-owner, Ratcliffe said: "To become co-owner of Manchester United is a great honour and comes with great responsibility.
"This marks the completion of the transaction, but just the beginning of our journey to take Manchester United back to the top of English, European and world football, with world-class facilities for our fans. Work to achieve those objectives will accelerate from today."
So, 100 days into his premiership, Ratcliffe is rolling up his sleeves in preparation for a first summer at the club. Ineos have been given control of football operations, meaning they will oversee changes to the squad, as well as deciding on the future of Erik ten Hag.
Having reached this particular landmark, M.E.N. Sport has picked out four positive changes Ratcliffe and Ineos have set about making since being given the keys to Old Trafford.
MAKING LONG OVERDUE APPOINTMENTS
Before Ratcliffe and Ineos had even got their feet under the table it was obvious that one of their first objectives would be to assign the right people to the right roles. United's hierarchy was in desperate need of being equipped with football knowledge and know-how.
