Don't remember the same fury when Venkys took over Blackburn or Wigan owners putting them in admin to win a betNo more glory to hunt there. Don't come wanting for them here~

Enjoying your visit? You do seem more 'cheeks' than blue.The sad facts are united was never in debt till 2005 when the glazers took over and put them in debt.
Owners shouldn’t be able to do this and the fact they take dividend payments out of the club is morally wrong.
I understand the united fans frustration and I believe all of us as fans should unite to stop these evil people ruining our football clubs.
That was supposedly the second bunch of tramps not the original lotThey kicked a door in marked AE8 and swarmed in. The same twat who lobbed the tripod
Okay I’ll humour you. “No class in kicking the enemy when they are down”? What you mean, I don’t know like having a banner mocking your rivals lack of success, whilst they drop down the divisions. Whilst still lapping up the success you’re achieving. Something class like that yeah? Do one you sad rag cnut, you’re fooling no one.It seems like my post has been taken wrongly by a minority.
At end of the day we are all meant be football fans, as much as we dislike united, Liverpool etc. We shouldn’t be in joy that their clubs are getting ruined by greedy businessmen.
You never know 1 day maybe our oil money dries up and we are bought out by a greedy American owner who bleeds the club dry. We wouldn’t like that , it’s about protecting the game, protecting football and what is right.
There is no class in kicking the enemy when they are down because we are ok. You never know what is round the corner.
Football has been around a longer time then all of us alive today. If things don’t change regarding rules and ownerships then football as we know it will not survive. The rich will get richer , clubs which are the beating heart of cities will seize to exist, the game will be ruined. We need all be united against this and stand up for what’s right about football.
The clubs belong to the fans !

But that was all before Sky & premierleague so doesnt countUnited were nothing before Matt Busby! Busby went to United in 1945, 76 years ago; but the league had been going for 57 years and the FA Cup for 74 years before that, and as you say some clubs were formed 80+ years before that. So for half of football history (plus the 1970s) United have been a non-entity of a club. How the fuck can they be considered the Grandfathers of English football?
As Newton Heath they were getting crowds of 400 at Bank Street and went bust. As Manchester United they won their first ever trophies with City’s players, then went 37 years without winning anything. They were getting average attendances of 11,000, individual attendances of 4,000, couldn’t afford to buy their own kits so used old City kits (Rags), and nearly went bust in the 1930s.
The grandfathers of English football are:
Aston Villa - 6 league titles and 6 FA Cups by 1920.
Sunderland - 6 league titles and an FA Cup by 1936.
Everton - 5 league titles and 2 FA Cups by 1939.
Newcastle - 4 league titles and 3 FA Cups by 1932.
Sheffield Wednesday - 4 league titles and 3 FA Cups by 1935.
Blackburn Rovers - 2 league titles and 6 FA Cups by 1928.
Preston North End - 2 league titles and 2 FA Cups by 1938, first ever Double Winners (1888-89) in a season they went unbeaten in the league (first ever Invincibles) and didn’t concede a goal in the FA Cup.
In the decade United were almost going bust, other clubs were huge in comparison:
Arsenal were winning 5 league titles and 2 FA cups.
Everton were winning 3 league titles and an FA Cup.
City were winning the league title, the FA Cup, playing the first ever “European” fixture (against a German league XI in Germany), were getting regular 60-70,000 attendances as well as the record breaking 84,569 attendance in 1934.
West Brom were getting 64,000+ crowds.
Birmingham were getting 66,000+ crowds.
Huddersfield (after winning 3 consecutive league titles the previous decade) were getting 67,000+ crowds.
Sheffield United were getting 68,000+ crowds.
Newcastle were getting 68,000+ crowds.
Bolton were getting 69,000+ crowds.
Sheffield Wednesday were getting 72,000+ crowds (against City) and winning trophies.
Sunderland were getting 72,000+ crowds and winning trophies.
Charlton were challenging [City] for the league title and getting 75,000+ crowds.
Chelsea were getting 82,000+ crowds.
I’ve named 16 clubs there, and not exhausted the list, who have more legitimacy of calling themselves bigger clubs than United in the first half of football history.
Man United “the Grandfathers of English football”, my arse!
It's utter cowardice mate. They should be docked points for failing to fulfill a fixture, It's all their doing from the feral tramps who support them, to their inadequate internal security.Have the PL commented on this yet?
absolutely fucking disgraceful
Yes.Have the PL commented on this yet?
absolutely fucking disgraceful
They - along with the scousers - hand picked the current PL chief exec. No way will the PL punish the ragsThe silence from the premier league says it all. Manchester United are running the league. Fucking wankers
Surely when they won the league in January that would have been the ideal time for maximum exposure!Where were these protests when the rags were dominating and ruining football buying all the top players. They loved it and couldn't get enough of being top dog. Now the tables are turned they cannot handle it
I actually think he thinks he is their messiah. Im amazed people outside of this forum cant see why the ex ughnited sky employee would be so determined to disguise 'glazers out' as a 'isnt the ESL terrible' movement.Is it going to be another Forward with Franny campaign? Get a consortium together to buy the rags with Gary Chuckle getting the unwashed plastic horde fan base onboard. Be careful what you wish for raggies getting rid of one ownership for ex players resulted in City tumbling down the leagues. The only person who could buy the rags and make a change in the operation of the club currently owns City.
there is no mask mate.Bill let him carry on, let's see when the mask finally slips, will cap off a fine few days perfectly :)
Bwahahaha.......fuck off Rag. I hope your shitty little club boils even more piss when we win the league.It seems like my post has been taken wrongly by a minority.

Very true.there is no mask mate.
Nailed it mateWhile all the hysterical comedy #TopReds are congratulating themselves all over social media for being oh so edgy and hard, deep down they know one thing. NONE of this would be happening if City weren’t outclassing them as a team and as a club, on the pitch and off it. Make no mistake, we have broken them. They are done. Nine years since 93:20 is all it took for them to invade their own stadium, terrorise their own staff, fight with the police, wear fucking zebra pants on national television and to make an embarrassment of themselves in front of the watching world and for what? To sing nursery rhymes about City and to lash out like spoiled manbabies, just because the entitlement that fed their feeble egos and gave some sort of justification to their hollow lives when they were on top was suddenly snatched away. Because they were terrified ANOTHER City title might be won by their own players bottling it at their dilapidated shithole.
What a time to be a Bert. Watch it, drink it in...
