Only if you’ve IPTV though (fortunately I have :))

Or a multi LNB/Motorized dish set up. the conmmentaries on it are in polish, croatian or whatever none of which I understand but makes as much sense as the commentators on Sky or BT.

 

[Spurs quarter 69]

Cant believe main news story on the BBC is Chelsea Jim buying the rags. WTF

 

[KingBilly]

We just won the lot and all I see on the news is the keep Utd relevant media machine. The big takeover.

Let the giddiness begin,it’ll fire them right up to at least hold villa from beating them by 3-4 goals.

What the chuff have I just seen as the BBC News main Christmas Eve story, the rebirth of the rags via a 71 yr old buying 25% of a tired old giant. Pre recorded interviews and a reporter despatched to the Theatre of streams.

Chelsea Jim from Oldham, the Glazers friend. Why didnt he buy Latics.

The problem is I CAN believe it.

The BBC are so far up the Rag's arse it's illegal in 27 countries.

I seen again today some site referencing the 8:1 Boro result before the oil. No thick fuckers realised we did the double over the Rags that year, topped the league for a period & had a good season.

Players protest against Thaksin interference and possible sacking of Sven.

Who does history tell us can still win the title?​

A little over half the time - 16 out of 31 - the team top at Christmas won the title, which means 15 times someone else climbed the table to finish top.

There is even hope for Manchester United, with Manchester City coming from eighth place in 2020-21 to win the title.

the fucking BBC.

I think this article is hilarious.
Highlighting the fact that City won the League from 8th position at Christmas, shows what a superb second half of the season we had.
Go to a Bookies (anyone but Betfred ?) and see what odds the Stretford Serpents currently are ?
The odds will just show how badly MUFC are rated...

 

[East Level 2]

What’s the fucking relevance of andy fucking mitten?

His uncle played for the rags so he knows everything about global football. And he produced a rag fanzine I think.

 

[BrianW]

If United win the League I will show my posterior in the display area of a well-known Manchester emporium. There is more chance of Ken Dodd coming back to life and paying his taxes.

Genius from the glazers. They don’t spend any money doing up the infrastructure, have rock solid control of the club still, and can blame someone else if it all goes wrong on the sporting side

Whilst still taking a yearly dividend from their remaining shares.
Big Jim does a good job,their shareholding costs more to buy them out.
Big Jim,fecks up ,Ratboy can't blame the Glaziers anymore .
And they all reckon the Glaziers are thick,they are playing the morons like a violin.

They are the best! I absolutely fucking love them :-)

 

[give it to gordon]

Ineos jim isnt buying 25% of the rags, he is buying 25% of the Glazer's shares

Dancing at the Disco, bumper to bumper

I was “dancing” to this tune at a party last night - banger!

 

[warringtonblue]

How is it possible to have a minority takeover?
