[york away to this!]

Was like one of those weird water features that Charlie Dimmock used to manufacture on Ground Force

I think it was what is now referred to as a "reflection pool"...

I’m sorry if I offended you (and any others) with this post. It was supposed to be a light hearted dig at the way tv ads target the older people during day time tv. It’s obviously back fired. I’ll hold my hands up and appreciate you calling me out on this one.

You've made me feel guilty now.

Tell the Premier League. They would love to charge you.

Surprised to hear that as theirs a bitter rivalry between Hull and Leeds at both footy and rugby league. Suppose it's like Bolton where theirs lots of rags but Wanderers hate United with a passion

Is there one non-Rag who likes Yoonited?

Anyone heard of “transfer of the season” I have just heard this -:

Manchester United goalkeeper Senne Lammens has been named the Premier League Transfer of the Season, after an impressive first campaign in England.

Flipping heck can’t they do better than that ?

Cherki!

Dates back to the Bolton team coach being stoned in Salford after the 1958 Cup final.

You know SSN have no material when they are spending 25 minutes dissecting the England squad numbers and their relevance!!!!!!!!!!!!

You just know its going to be wall to wall "jude" or "rashford", until we are knocked out that is.

Then it will be a search for the "scapegoat", which is why I am glad Phil isnt going.

This ridiculous media circus spoils the whole experience these days of international football.

Games that dont have England playing have been far more enjoyable to watch for years now.

Would imagine there's a few flashpoints around the Walden & Little Hulton areas ?
Wasn't Little Hulton originally a Salford overspill council estate ?
Went there c.25 years ago with our son's junior football team - not the warmest welcome given...

I’ll be following Norway with Haaland. England will be too much hard work. Tuchel playing for set pieces, defending deep. Just a German Southgate. Turgid to watch as usual with England. Not a single creative player in the squad. No ambition at all. Anti football like Arsenal.

Good to see Oscar Bobb is in there as well.

Not at all pal. You’re absolutely right to call out statements that you feel offended by. I felt horrified that some other city fans thought that I was ageist. I hope that my apology and explanation goes some way to showing that I’m not .

I’ve been stoned in Salford pure times.

For which he's described as "Chief football news reporter".

He's also penned an article about united signing Ederson, where his byline is 'Manchester United reporter'.

Either there are two Simon Stones working at the BBC or they're taking the piss. I know which I think it is.

2 salaries ?

Shocking losers - and even worse winners. Good old Nat!

Still gutted that injury effectively ended his chance here

Sky were happily linking Bellend to Pele this morning via their number 10 shirts going on auction, really cringey even for them.

Well, they were both 17yo once.

Did he have a nice piece of halibut for his tea?
