It’s hard to accurately explain, but does anyone else feel a tiny bit sorry for Maguire?
I know he’s a rag bastard, and he’s shit but still, a tiny part of me feels bad for him

Nope. Fuck him. He's decided to stay and anything that's happening is down to him.

Lest we forget boys & girls:

red =
nytid - massive cnuts
dippers - huge cnuts
tarquins - enormous cnuts.

WTFAMu
CTID
As you were Blu3s.

Other than having to sack off one player for being an abuser, putting another on leave for the same reason, inviting a nonce to their stadium as a guest of honour, breaking financial fair play, losing to us in an fa cup final and watching us win the treble, losing both their away games this season, buying an injured striker, loaning an injured midfielder, being stuck with Maguire for another season, the Glazers seemingly sticking around and being a billion in debt they’re not having a bad few months

Relax guys. Only 3 days until Brighton smash them.

The annoying thing is at OT you know what's gonna happen. Everything points to a Brighton win but they won't.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Order, order! The Honourable Gentleman will refer to United as 'Cunts' as is laid down in Standing Orders.

Objection, your honour.

They‘re known as scum in these parts.

Get £100 on a Man U pen or a Brighton red card

They streamline the process these days by having Moss, Webb and Atkinson on hand to apologise in person, obviously well oiled after a session of Nited hospitality….

Maybe need a Speaker of the Forum to call a break to this vexed conversation ?

Lindsay isn't available

And an apology?

I know where you're coming from.

But... No!

He made his choice and signed his contract.

Let this be a lesson to any footballer out there with a modicum of potential. If you sign for the rags you'll surely regret it.

That club is done. It's over for the vermin and so will your career if you get duped into joining them.

I will do it If there is a seat in the Lords when I have finished. Lord Blue appeals to me.

Don’t forget The Face looking like he might be training the kids too.

Defo something going on. None stop negative press about them, never seen anything like it

Man Utd top world rankings for squad cost from transfer fees | Premier League clubs dominate

Man Utd have spent a world-topping £991.7m on their current squad; Chelsea rank second, with Man City, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool, Newcastle and West Ham also making the top 10; Luton are the only Premier League club not to feature in the top 100

Bad press aimed at the rags usually indicates there's about to be a changing of the guard.

Neil Ashton has probably preped his old cronies in the media..... it's open season boys and girls, do your worst.

Either that or the club are in such a free fall that there's no way of spinning it for them anymore.

 

[Vienna_70]

The target market for shirt sponsors is not the fans of the club. It is tv viewers. Given the reach of the PL, one could say tv viewers worldwide. Secondary market is corporate guests as sponsors can put on lush entertainment packages.
It could be argued that shirt sponsorship is a correct vehicle for consumer brands but not for b to b companies.

I said to Mrs Vienna at the Newcastle game that stadium advertising is aimed at the people watching outside the ground, not those in it, as it used to be.

This is my highlight of the week unfortunately.

Shut up beast and pass the popcorn!

All a cunning plan to drag the value of the rag's down. They're desperate for a change of owner's. They're all on it together.
