Just had Rooney and son on national BBC news, as apparently the son is following in his footsteps! Should be signing for Everton then...

Got to say no matter what anyone’s views on Rashford are, whether completely genuine or not. Neil Ashton is certainly earning his money at the head of their propaganda machine, since he took over as head of media, they are in the news everyday with a positive angle attached to them at every single opportunity, maybe he should be our next signing?

Correct.

Since he arrived there, the Rags PR machince and media department has gone into overdrive. Look across sports media and social media, and it’s nothing but positive PR, bar the team losing and United’s financies.

He is mate, but our media machine appears non-existent and if anything since our victory at CAS, the reporting on us is even more negative and the lies have increased at every opportunity the press and social media have, it has to change!

I totally agree fella.

Isn't it ironic though, that seeing as we are underperforming at the moment iv seen the odd snippet of nicety aimed at the club.
One headline said "this just is'nt the city team that we are used too and have loved over the last few seasons"
And "isn't that lovely what Manchester City are doing for the kids of East Manchester".

I'm wise enough to know that really they are revelling in our "rut" at the moment, and didn't give nearly this amount of positivity(even though its miniscule) to us even after our unprecedented quadruple
 
The Dippers do appear to get up peoples noses , Lampard and now Mourinho not liking their backroom staff antics on the touchline and now Terence Trent Darby with his little piss take on Mourinho in Twatter , maybe TTDshould shut his mouth until he has a trophy haul similar to Mourinho and show some respect
But since when has any Dippers shown respect , they appear to enjoy antagonising their rivals at every opportunity instead of just enjoying their temporary success, insecure f*ckers.

Virgin the Dyke showed their "we love ourselves attitude" with his votes for FIFA best player award.
I'll use my 3 votes on my team mates, no else is good enough, was his decision.
What a fuckin cretin
 
Daily United.

Full online article about United's under 23's getting beat 6-1 by Chelsea's under 23's.

Also.

Daily United.

FIFA Pro Rankings.

Bruno Fernandes just misses out on top 3.(headline) Small picture of him merged into a larger picture of Kev, who was named the No1 midfielder. But of course, the Daily United won't print that fact in the headline.

I once wrote about this in King of the Kippax, claiming that United's press office insisted on it. Stuart Brennan was kind enough to contact me and tell me that was incorrect.

It seems that using "Manchester United" gets them more hits and clicks than "Man Utd". But it doesn't make much difference whether they use "Manchester" or "Man" with us.

Thanks for your informative reply I just have a quick look and never click on anything I despise the vile publication which goes back to to that shithouse Peter Gardner

If you have an issue with the way the media are reporting Rashford, despite all the positivity he has brought this year, then I really do pity you.

I draw my positivity from Captain Tom and little Tony Hugdell who lost his legs because he was abused as a baby and inspired by Captain Tom he set out to copy him by walking 10 km on his prosthetic legs to try and raise £500 for the hospital that treated him. He has raised almost £1.5M.
There is more to life than football clubs but l am glad my own club has given Christmas pressies to the young kids of East Manchester without seeking a welter of publicity about it.

“It is a big debate,” Owen told talkSPORT.

“He is training with some of the greatest players on the planet every single day and with Ole but there is nothing quite like having hardened pros either side of you and going on loan almost rounds you off as a player.

“I don't think you have to be choosy [about a club], just get him out there, get him playing games.

“[He will learn] how to win, how to please fans and how to play well when your touch is a bit off.”

Owen knows what he’s talking about. Get him out on loan.

Confused I thought rooney signed for Everton as a kid. How is the son following in his footsteps ?
Or have I got it wrong that rooney came thought their academy and played for free like all their players !

I urge everyone to Google him on video and watch him struggle determinedly along with his ableablenew legs and crutches as well. It really gets you.
The BBC featured him but he has not got as much credit as he deserves. Compare what this 5 year old as well as a 100 year old have done with other more publicised people.
Whilst on my soapbox l would like to draw attention to the work done by Francis House the children's hospice in Didsbury and Ward 84 the cancer ward at the Manchester Children's Hospital. It only takes a few minutes to donate online.
As the BBC say other children's charities are available locally and worldwide.
PS l should also mention Kevin Sinfield's seven marathons in seven days for Rob Burrow on the MND Association.
