I

Always feel like it is a virus waiting to happen if I go to the rag site!...

I share the same feeling and feel incredibly dity when i very rarely take a peep

Don't have one mate...one


I wasn't there mate,someone I know works there and phoned me this morning.
Said as soon as the police said it was Nevilles one of the Docs started taking pictures and said he was going to the press with them....so will see some soon I guess.

Unless of course the utd media control machine rolls into action....

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

I know him. Terrific bloke. Kind, generous, good looking, hung like a blue whale!

But his best trait is his modesty ;-)

 

[The perfect fumble]

The inevitable consequence of their first choice CM being Anderson, any fucker would have made a huge difference.

One or two could see where things were heading - after the red card,

"Could be 0-5..."

And some things never change,

"Silva is running the game"

And I think this one was directed at us but it may have been a rare bit of rag self-awareness...

"What a bunch of twats from manager to player."

And this....

Why did we still commit men forward when it was 4-1, you have lost at the point anyway and you have to think about the goal difference.

Yeah, I wonder how that worked out ;-)

And....

We'll look back at this in May.

Yeah, you did ;-)

Saw a couple of fun stats about their goal scoring today.

16 of their 23 goals have come in 4 games against he bottom 3 sides and Everton (who where in the bottom 4 till last week). They've only scored 7 goals in their other 7 games combined.

Also, 11 of their 23 goals have come in the last 10 minutes of games, only 12 goals scored in the first 80 minutes of their 11 games.

Paints a picture doesn't it?

Fucking hell, that is a thing of beauty. I'm using those stats on Monday......

 

[bobbyowenquiff]

The stats are very interesting and his influence on matches is very limited but he does have talent as a football player. Great players run matches and he does not have that ability....but the longer he is out of action the more fantastic??? he becomes haha!!! according to United fans.

To put it into context Jordan Henderson has 38 assists from 260 matches and a crossing accuracy of 25 per cent (double Carlton's). Pogba is a fraud. The idea that he cost £90m (transfer fee alone) is truly incredible. How long will it take before the Rags realise they have been duped again?

 

[SPIDERBOY]

Unless of course the utd media control machine rolls into action....

He apparently turned up with his wife and managed to drive off in said car.....spoke to some staff in a bad way.

Charges will be filed according to one police officer.

 

[CityWest]

We're gonna need a bigger bus!!!! ......

I see the Luke Shaw experiment failed then and they want him out this January. That Armenian chap has been useless to really. I hope they can't find buyers and are lumped with these players for the length of their contract :-)

 

[chedinho]

What happens with the transfer policy? I can see Pocchetino going there next and their recent acquisition of lanky clogger type stroke not very mobile players will be hard to turn round into a potential Spurs way of playing.

The only concerning thing is they might get the next appointment right, they’ve managed to fluff it 3 times so far.

My only concern is they actually start to copy our plan

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

What i do not understand , is the more games Carlton misses the better he gets , if they can keep him out until xmas , he is nailed on for player of the season.

They had their chance to do that 15 years ago and royally fucked it up

Is this the same Luke Shaw that was going to be England’s full back for the foreseeable, Rags ruining young English talent? Sunday supplement and Sly Sports News will be all over this in the morning, Yes?

 

[chedinho]

My point is, it will take them years to catch up and the only way to do it and appeal to the masses, is to follow our blueprint.
They've fucked up alright, they were told they would be dismantled and they didn't believe it.
But then again, neither did I.

Peg has just put an order in for this. Ready for the derby

What, invest in the infrastructure and not send money to the Cayman Islands? Do me a favour! This IS the rags we're talking about.

they have missed the boat once and the next boat is set to sail.
Don't know if there will ever be another.

Careful what you say about Lukey. Some joker on Twitter has him linked with us. Go to the twitter rumour thread in the transfer forum. He could end up in a sky blue shirt (XL, obviously).
