Just seen their next game vs Everton is at 7pm on Sunday evening (BT Sport) bit of a funny time for kick-off, anyone know why?

Has there ever been a Sunday 7pm PL game before?
Yes there have been a few random kick off times when there are a number of games on the same night and they get one game in early while Sky show a game as late as 20.15 kick off so people can get to watch even more football.

We kicked off against Forest at 19.30 a few weeks ago.

Yes - wasn't that a week when Amazon Prime had the games and you could pick any one you wanted?

But that was mid-week though wasn't it, I'm just curious about the Sunday night thing.

Agree that it's a weird kick-off time but as usual with these things, there tends to be a valid reason for it. It was originally selected for BT's early Saturday slot but as United are away in Europe on Thursday it automatically got knocked back to the Sunday, and as Sky already have games in the 2pm and 4.30pm slots, that's why it's a 7pm kick-off on BT.

Clubs get money for each of their appearances on tele so they couldn’t knock one of the other Sunday games off the tele to fit Everton v United in instead, because that would mean one of the other games would have money taken off them.

It’s a sympathy thing.
By the time it’s finished the Rags have only a couple of hours to have a fucked up weekend.
 
You look at PR37 and history is repeating, he made it quite clear he wanted out and they wouldnt let him go, they are now left with an unhappy player on huge wages who cant get a game. He will be off in Jan and the rags will once more fuck up a situation they could have handled much better.
You forget one thing. Other than Chelsea and City, who else could afford to buy him this past transfer window?
 
Just about recovered from the absolute hammering we gave these useless set of cunts on Sunday, ill never ever get bored of beating them.

Just a quick one regarding them though when the media were blowing smoke up ten months' arse in the summer did he not come out with a list of rules that nothing gets leaked to the press? Absolutely fucking everything is getting leaked at the minute and its glorious, fuck them and every horrible bastard who associates themselves with them
 
I know that for people with a mortgage, every interest rate rise is a big blow. The small silver lining is that with the Glazers, these lot still have £500m in debt, which is going to be carrying crippling interest if the Liz and Kwasi economic masterclass continues.
 
Ammonia poor little sparrow v Trafford Circus coming to you this Thursday night, from some town that's no doubt full of Albanian gangsters. How far the mighty have fallen............. but its a big match for Trafford
