[why me? Blue Manchester]

Horrible cunts

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

Scum last season, they will be scum this coming season and they will be scum every season after.

 

[Salford in the City]

'We can't let that happen again'... like they have ANY say in it.

We're so lucky they let us off the hook this season!

But, with the impending signing of Mason Mount, I'm aleady fearing the worst!

 

[Jamshopbridge]

Wishing them all the worst for next season. Scumbastards.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

They are hurting like you wouldn't believe :)

HM trial re-set for February next year,
Pleased because if he did wrong he has to pay the penalty as we all would.
Just suspected the Greek system may have been ‘encouraged’ to allow it to be brushed under the carpet.
Only negative is he will strengthen their defence if he gets sent down…

Should keep him at the rags for another season because who would want to buy a player who could be in jail before the end of the season

At least two more..

Would it not send out a huge statement if we didn’t have a Utd thread at all? They have become an irrelevance I’m just not interested in anymore. Shouldn’t even be referring to them as ‘Utd’ now , as the new competition will be Newcastle……

And yet, you post in here.

Hilarious how their fans have come down from their moral high ground, and are prepared to take the Qatari petrodollars now.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

He intervened to save his baby sister who was about to be adbducted into slavery by a bunch of hairy shouldered men with strange accents.

How is Daisy....and was she worth the effort ?

Ushited moral high ground=ant hill.
Wasn't a very long drop.

Stuff your knighthood up your arse Fergie!. Man UKNIGHTED my arse, now bow down to the greatest treble winners of all time and the only authentic treble winners at that, you runner ups!.

Oh yes, and they are irrelevant anyway. No matter what they do, we will always be the first English football team to win the treble as champions, nothing ever will take that away from us and a quadruple won't ever happen in the physicality of today's modern game. That's why we had to wait 24 years for a European treble to actually happen again.

What a season last one was, can now actually enjoy it once the DVDs come out and/or the Amazon Prime documentary.

Utterly useless football team are the rags, if you can call them that. In our shadows forever now, they are wankers and morons of the highest order and so utterly deluded, especially thinking the fallen through Qatar deal would be their silver bullet.

The PURE treble

The PURE treble

That sounds better come to think of it.

The Pure Treble Winners. Originals since 2023.

Horrible cunts

A masterpiece of brevity. Well said sir

Has a manager of any other club been knighted immediately after winning the CL, or only utd?
Genuine Q

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

Genuine Q

Can only think of the Rags. Even Sir Matt Busby got one shortly afters.

Jock Stein would have been knighted, but his Celtic players behaviour in the Intercontinental Cup game was seen as so apalling, he only got a CBE.

Cloughie I know wasn't knighted, he only had either a CBE or MBE, while Bob Paisley of the dippers depsite three wins, was also in the same boat as Cloughie.

Pep isn't a British Citizen, so isn't eligible, but he might be for an honorary knighthood, like Bob Geldof for example. The only difference being he can't use "Sir" as his title, but like anyone else awarded can use the post nominals KBE. If Pep ever gets one, he can use "Sir" if Spain is a Commonwealth country, or he gets British citizenship (which I think it isn't).

Terry Wogan only became Sir Terry when he got British citizenship, the Knighthood was originally honorary as Ireland is not in the Commonwealth of Nations.

So yes, only for the Raggies are these noble honours, I blame the public falling for media hype as soon as they won it causing them to lobby him to get it, as well as all the build up hype. We didn't get any of that, but so what.... sod em.

Amazing isn't it? (no) - True football men like Clough and Paisley get an OBE, but a bullying, piss soaked tw#t like him gets knighted straight away.

Thought so. Remember my dad telling me years ago (Celtic fan) that he always looked out for utd’s results after Munich (soft spot for them) but turned against them after Busby got knighted and Stein didn’t. When we moved to Manchester, he fell in love with City and passed it on

I think your analysis of Stein not getting a knighthood is bollocks, i’m not getting into it, I’m sure @Magicpole could provide more perspective than me

but your deade right about the rag bias

 

[roman totale]

Desperately chasing Mason Mount like a pissed up 18 year in a nightclub at 2am going after anything because all his mates copped off, with much fitter women, two hours ago. Chelsea are going to take them to the cleaners and they’ll need to pay stupid wages, yet again, to a player who’s never going to get them to the next level.
