when you think boxing matches can start at 23:00 UK time it's not inconceivable at some point the FA Cup Final will follow suit. Should just move Wembley to Saudi and have done with it.

Don't think our owners would sign up for this ?
Though the "Red Arse Cheeks" club supporters would be fuming...
 
Was told by a mate when he was a trainee journalist they would be 'encouraged' to say they supported a team that had done well in the past, but had fallen down the leagues e.g Forest, Derby, Leeds.

Forest were actually languishing in League 1 at the time and then I heard a BBC journo saying how he was a Forest fan because his dad had talked about the Clough era....

Another said he was a Bournemouth fan cos he'd studied at Uni there.
He then waxed lyrical about Amad Diallo at utd (who had barely kicked a ball for them) saying he was class and he'd seen him play for their u23s!

So this guy, who was a big Bournemouth fan, just happened to subscribe to MUTV????!!!!!!!!

The BBC will be shocked when someone eventually tells them a lot of people don’t watch or care about Eurovision.

in fairness the FA tried to flog Wembley to some cockney wide boy a few years ago, if the price is right. Remember to old London Bridge is now in America so anything is possible, probably need an enclosed roof though.
 
BBC Radio 5 Live...

Man Utd reaction: 'Twenty times' - but now Man Utd must exit 'Ice Age'

Manchester United fans sang defiantly during the match against Bournemouth, but how far away is title 21?

I loved this bit;

"Ferguson was three and three-quarter seasons into his tenure before he delivered the trophy that changed United's history for the better. The parallels with that season and this are impossible to ignore given the respective league positions"

So, the only real parallel is that both teams were shit. I suppose that is impossible to ignore.

It's not because of Eurovision.

If the match goes into ET and penalties they have to drop Doctor Who. The episode ties in with Eurovision and the showrunner revealed a couple of months ago it may not go out because of the football.

I’m finding ignoring the parallels to be completely straightforward on the basis that there aren’t any.

Carragher has unfortunately got the same initials as "The Messiah".
Looks like the "spittoon buffoon" has now taken on his mantle of delivering supposed profound pronouncements.
No doubt Pep will play Judas in the Fillum...

That would explain why I say 'jeezus christ' everytime I see him on the box before switching over.

Didn’t they say that about Ten Haag that winning the FA cup was what saved Taggert? Doing tea readings to predict the future and referencing it back to old piss can Fergie is what has got that cesspit of a club into the death spiral it’s in now. They can’t help themselves wishing it was the 1990s again, it’s why football has left them behind and in a shit ton of dept trying to keep up.

So by that logic United were the greatest club from May 2013 up to Saturday
