I think the Paul Hardcastle song needs an airing if we beat Hudders tomorrow

They have a current affairs side to their forum. And there's some fairly huge political threads and the place most definately leans Left.

Yet another reason to pity them.

 

[VOOMER]

As has been mentioned, the fact they are 2nd says a lot about the rest of the league especially the bigger clubs. If there was ever a time to reinforce our dominance, then this summer is it. Bolster the squad in key areas and grind the twats into dust.

A "fucking" men.

Probably the start of the reason I got banned from the cafe. I pointed out many times that the early season 4-0’s were achieved in the late 2nd Half’s against teams that were crap, at the time it clearly made no sense to them, despite the obvious facts.

Another point, United had become the Liverpool of the 00’s and 10’s, ‘istree.

With the buying of Sanchez and Pogba etc, have they now become Swales’s City of the late 80’s and early 90’s?

What next.... Stevie Wonder?

Slight edit.

You've got to think to yourself that Mourinho has lost the authority he used to have with his teams. He's clearly lost the dressing room in that place, and is digging a deeper and deeper hole for himself. United in trouble big time, in my view. Who do they go and get after this? Liverpool and perhaps Tottenham will challenge next season, but United are just treading water. Even winning the F.A. Cup wouldn't paper that over.
Good opportunity after last night to establish the biggest winning margin in a PL season. Umm, now who is it holds that record?

United are very lucky that both Arsenal and now Chelsea are in decline and I imagine there will be an exodus soon from Spurs which will help their cause again

 

[pfazz]

As said above, winning the FA cup will just paper over the cracks but it might just be enough to keep the Glazers sweet on profits and not see the need to give the eye gouger too much to spend.

Lost U18 Final to Chelsea 3 0 today.

 

[ancoats]

the pain i feel for them is from laughing so much my chest is painful and my ribs feel sore it feels like am on laughing gas all the time and when they start that 20 times songs i sing 20 years to you win it again and thats being kind

Chelsea have been biding their time, why try to compete with City when you can wait a season then spunk it all after a world cup uncovers a few gems.

Dele Alli is tailor made for them.

 

[Vicmeldrew666]

So would anyone here take gasford or tony marshall as a city player?
Personally I would at least look at Rashford - t'other one no thanks

I assumed that their new stadium was putting the brakes on any aggressive transfer spending this summer

Dele Alli is tailor made for them.

Sanchez would win the golden boot just on penalties. Would be like Andy Johnson MkII.

 

[bangkokblueballs]

Maureen's philosophy was don' lose to top 4 teams and Hoover up points from the lower/weaker teams. A shit philosophy but if executed correctly then it can bring some success.

This philosophy cannot work if, as they have and lost many games to the bottom placed sides.
The reason they are artificially sitting in 2nd is because they have had better than expected results against top teams

He will revert to type next season and hopefully with luck and patience running out, we will see the final chapter in all it's glory

 

[Bluesince1979]

Well the rare ones ( if in the minority ) deserve a manager better than that cnut. Absolute coward and ego driven twat of the highest order.

To be honest football in general doesn't deserve cowards like him .

Oh well , how sad, never mind

 

[Vienna_70]

To be fair the reason they are as high as they are is that chap between the sticks. He has won five or six games on his own.

At the risk of sounding pedantic, a goalkeeper can’t win a game on his own, as a team has to score at least one goal to win a game.

AFAIK. the alpaca has never scored for the rags.

 

[casserole of nonsense]

You're Brian Clough, and I claim my £5.

That makes sense. I forgot about his effect.

Pedant away.
Yes you have to score more thn the opposition to win, but look how many 1 goal wins they have and the number of great saves De Gea makes. He's turned so many losses into draws and draws into wins.
Without him they'd be at the level of Arsenal and Burnley.
