Serious question.
How far do people think they could fall.
Yes they have a really very average/poor squad.
But they do have the protection of the referees.
But I can see them dropping to mid table.
Just return to the normal .
An average mid table team that gets to the odd cup final

They won’t be allowed to fall to mid table,they’ll continue to be assisted throughout each season.

I agree. The best we can hope for is yo-yoing between. 3rd and 7th. They spend so much money, attract so much media attention, help from the league. Which in some way is more painful for them. If they really fall, it gives them a rallying call, a real anger to blame the Glazers. If they fell too far, the Glazers would have to sell. Then they might end up with a competent driven owner.

The state of affairs now is probably the best we can hope for. Full of infighting, incompetence. As long as we remain competent and driven. They’ll never catch up again. That will kill them slowly. Which will be delightful.

The next crushing blow, beating the charges and doing something they’ve been er done. Either 4 in a row or retaining the CL..

To think former players wrote articles for newspapers saying the cup final is their opportunity to retain their "legacy" as the only Premier League treble winners.

I bet they are hurting right now.

I don,t recall any rag having issue with each of the managers appointed since the pisscan left. Each was the dawn of a new era.

I don,t recall any rag having issue with any of the transfers made since the pisscan left, each was the greatest transfer ever made.

So what exactly have the Glazers done to deprive the rag hordes of everything they've ever wanted.

Saddled the club with debt, took a fortune out in dividends was the rag father in laws response, when asked how that effected him personally or how it had hindered investment in the team he had no response.

Not the Glazers fault the wankers they've brought in have failed to deliver/perform.

Long may it continue :-)

They wouldn't give a shit about the money the glazers are taking out of the club if they were dominating premier league/champions league

Part of me quite likes it that every season they go in with hope that finally this is their year, only to have it slowly slip away into despair.

It must be torture for them.

When you’re really shit and hopeless you can at least sort of have a laugh at how crap you are. We know that better than anyone.

Where United are is a sort of perpetually painful no man’s land, a purgatory. Long may it continue.

This is probably worse for them, it's purgatory. If it were to go pear shaped the true fans would have a better chance of getting rid of the Glazers

Massive season for them coming up, regardless of ownership they need to progress with the latest chosen one and win something significant. Their global appeal is dwindling the none legacy fans and their kids don’t follow “their” club to be second best, or even worse, and loyalty isn’t strong Competition is getting better and it won’t be as easy for them

Protesting at the souvenir shop apparently tomorrow due to the time it is taking to sell the club. Have any of these idiots purchased a house before and realised how long it takes for it to go through, let alone a business that the Glazers want £6 billion for? I don’t get why no one is asking why this guy from Qatar has a personal fortune of £1.5 billion, where is the rest of the money coming from? Is it a case of loading the club up again with more finance? Meet your new owner same as your previous ones by sound of it.

Protest at the Souvenir Shop, ha ha ha ha ha ha.

The Glazers will fucking love that probably put extra staff on the tills.

The Rag protests, campaigns, boycotts and whatever else they get up to is absolutely fucking embarrassing.

They have achieved fuck all and all other fans are just laughing at them now.

Luv it :-)
 
Kind of off-topic, but a question nonetheless.
What year did the rags put that banner in the swamp? It surely couldn't have been in the first years after
' les Miserables ' . Any help on the subject would be appreciated.
