I caught the end of a premier league years the other day. Rags had to win at Wigan to win the title.
0-0 and as clear a penalty as you see for Wigan, Ferdinand handball, yet ref Bennett waves it away. Still at 0-0 a Rag dive in the area and a penalty is given.
most of their title wins are so tainted with the corruption of the officials in Fergusons back pocket

That was the game when their fans broke a gate down to get in... not that this was reported anywhere.

There was one year they carried on playing well after the 90 minutes until the rags scored the winner, it was like the golden goal ffs.
 
The Glazers never had any intention of selling. Most of us called it out when the announcement was made. But still, as long as it keeps the hordes of Asian Sly subscribers happy, it'll do.
They'll sit there in their little rickshaws, waiting for a customer, hunched up over their mobiles and feverishly flicking through to see what the latest news is from the Trafford Ministry of Truth. 'Confirmed. Neymar to sign a 4 year contract.' 'Mbappe is prepared to take a 90% pay cut in order to meet up with his soulmates, Mason Mount, Bruno rat face and his Holiness St Marcus of the Rashford, all at the swamp.' 'Mick Hucknall says once he reaches puberty he will donate both of his testicles to the club, because he's never had any fucking use for them anyway.'

And the little Asian rickshaw drivers, with their overly-prominent front teeth and yellowish skin, will grin excitedly at every snippet of utter bullshit from the Ministry.

May have been the one against Sheffield Wednesday ?
Always remember Nigel Worthington stood on the goal line when it went in, his attitude was almost like “right, they’ve scored, can we end it now” and traipsing off.

In all the 65+ years I've been into footy, that lot across town have always imagined they wear the 'Cloak of Entitlement' and carry the 'Mace of Privilege' as they waft about telling their adoring masses just how wonderful they are and how the rest of us 'plebs sordida' should be glad to have them adorning our world..

They'll always be 'The Red Filth' to me, nothing but a bunch of 'Wayne Kerrs'..*

(* ..and don't get me started on 'The Red Scouse Filth' and 'The Tarquins', both of whom are just as bad..)

Not bad for a deal where the initial bid was c.£30m? They really don't know how to negotiate.

It's the one thing the rags are good at. Publicity. The 30m bid was just to keep them on the backpages of the tabloids and of course, first item on sky. Every transfer is deliberately dragged out (which keeps the sponsors happy) and even though its officially announced on a Friday, the player doesn't actually sign until the Monday.
