Goofy is rather vague, that could be any ONE of the 11 who want out. Could even apply to the interim manager or Ed woowoo.

You never see eddie 3 planks in the same room as Chris Whitty...

More of a worm than a mole if we are going down the route of underground creatures ;-)

More of a “egotistical shithead” than a “mole” if you want an accurate race to the bottom but I take your point

Found it. It still makes me laugh

Patrick Barclay: Januzaj has got a touch of Messi but that’s no

www.standard.co.uk

To be fair to Barclay he did say this in the article so I guess he knew all along:-

"Januzaj will surely become a No 10 in the Mesut Ozil mould."

If they hit rock bottom again they'll pop out in Australia.

Maybe they should sign Doug McLure. (Seeing as we seem to be making references for all the teenagers on here today).

Next year's pre season tour...

I suggest they go back to where the reason for their decline started... that little knob of land at the bottom of Spain, you know, The Rock Of Gibraltar.

You known what, that's maybe even better.

When were were shit there was a certain enjoyment in knowing how shit we were, we had a laugh about it and it's how we got through those years.

Having a faint glimmer of hope every now and again only for it to be taken away time and time again is actually more painful.

them lot have a laugh no chance they can only laugh at others failure thats why they bought into brand united

Dunno how true this is but it claims the rags sold 1.7m shirts in total last year.

Sorry 2020.

Oh dear. That means at least 998 million of their fans didn't bother getting an official shirt (other than the snide ones). Apparently they now have 1.1 billion fans. Their official website is just a fake news platform.

Defeat to Villa and West Ham would top any amount of joy we’ve had from their fall in the last 8 years

He's right as well though isn't he, and he hasn't even touched on him signing Ronaldo. Their great hero has become their great villian.

What, 'Hidden viruses can behind slow performance'?

Describes Piscan's continued presence at the Swamp perfectly.

I rarely see any of them blame Ferguson for his greed and the racehorse which lead to the Glazers take over

 

[Bonzo Nododo]

Is that a clothing brand in Tesco?

Yes but although McTominay prefers to be called Florence whilst out in the evenings, he does also use that name for the clothing range at Tescos. Far more fitting than the failed jlingz line.

Ignorant of the facts or in denial -same thing for their fuckwit supporters .

Further down someone uses the ridiculous Americanism that United 'have reached out to Kamara's representatives.
On second thought perhaps the phrase is not so ridiculous in this case as you get the impression of desperately trying to reach a rescue line as the sinking ship goes...glug...glug...glug.
