What's all this raving about Diallo's goal? It was a fluke. Good run behind the defence yes, pretty good pass by the penalty merchant yes, but if you look, the ball just bounces off his head and only after that does he actually move his head to "head" the ball! Like granny shaggers shinner against us, probably intended it, but had no control over where the ball actually ended up.

We always used the 'how big an idiot?' test growing up, basically, how big an idiot would a player have to be to try something deliberately, the bigger an idiot they'd have to be, the more likely it was a fluke. The finish to go for there is a nod down low past the keeper, piece of piss and results in a goal more than 90% of the time. Trying to loop a ball coming from that far away behind him into a small gap behind the keeper with the back of his head? Either a fluke or he's legally a moron. That finish probably comes off 1, maybe 2% of the time.

none that f their victories versus us have meant or led to anything, they’ve won nothing or even stopped us. It feels like a worthy sacrifice....

Being telling rags this all week - their wins, come the end of the season, are irrelevant..
They hark on about Ole's 3 wins without realising the first was a 1-0 win in the League Cup semi that came on the back of a 3-1 defeat to City in the 1st leg!

Sunday's result will be as anonymous as the 2 down, 3-2 up game. Both times it just delayed the inevitable by a week.

Share price was $20 last night.

Nothing going to the club according to the Daily United.


Manchester United have announced that majority owner Avram Glazer is selling five million of his shares in the club.

If the shares are sold at their current value, Glazer could earn $100m (£71.5m) of which none of the proceeds will go directly towards the club.

Not sure why United fans are so angry about this. I thought they wanted the Glazers to sell their shares in the club ;)

and its funny how he got a work permit with only 90 minutes of top level football

59 actually. That's not necessarily an issue at his age, but given that he'd never been called up at youth level internationally (the fallback test for younger players) he shouldn't have gotten the permit.

nobody else would have got the clearance for somebody with so little top level football
also question about his details being wrong with age and family and a so called brother all dodgy

Maybe...has his age been verified?

His name wasn't certainly when he first arrived in Europe.

He's a Roger Milla character.
