United Thread 2015/16

Ryan and Wayne ain't very happy that turtle has survived to fight another day.

How about rags win (v arse) and it brings them three points closer to us; we didn't have a single attack worth mentioning at the 0-0 arena? How about rags win tonight and they've got a home quarter final which they will win due to a dodgy decision? Let them lose every fucking game; starting tonight and continuing forever.
Some fucking muppets will still be spouting about saving the fucking turtle if he gets fourth at our expense. Fuck the lot of them.

I'm with you. Up the Arse, I say.

Here's a story for you. This morning (Tuesday) I was out at 6.45am walking along the road. I had my City hat on (it was cold!) a bloke turned round, presumably saw my hat and simply said 'What about last night? Europes finest supporters or what' I simply replied that last week they were hurling obscene insults at the same players.
He then went on and on about 'When our Sugar Daddy delivers us 20 titles then we can talk' I merely replied that he sounded like a scouser, living in the past'.
I walked past him and he crossed the road but all the way down the streets he was hurling insults about empty seats, lack of trophys, even Stockport got a mention and as I was walking faster than him he resorted to shouting ..... at 6.45am people in a residential area people were now being woken up by a loud mouthed yob of a Rag. His final act was singing at the top of his voice 'Who the fuck are Man City'

It got me thinking. This is what the Rags are all about, this is what FCUM is about, they have to be the biggest and best and dominating a relegation threatened first division team on and off the pitch is the most exciting thing to have happened to the sad no mark for weeks. Whether it is Shrewsbury or Harrogate, gob shite rags have to be the biggest, loudest, hardest. Perhaps he thought I would smile and walk on, maybe even agree with him just because of the time of day but because I pointed out they were not the best supporters in Europe last week he got all angry.

No wonder everyone hates them. SCUM fans for a SCUM club.

Tactical Turtle now claiming second goal was not offside as some Portugese ref said so

Looks like he's not the only person at the swamp talking to some Portuguese guy!

And if the eye-gouger goes there, a SCUM manager too.

You should have said "Ever heard the name Gibson? James Gibson? He's the sugar daddy that saved you from going bankrupt when you were utterly skint, couldn't pay your staff and were about to be wound up. He also rebuilt Old Trafford after the war and appointed Busby. Without him there'd be no United and you'd be a footnote in history having won just two titles."

It wouldn't be if they got onside before the kick is taken. In this case, they weren't even close.

Strange one. The linesman could see they were way off. Could see they were still way off when the ball was kicked. It's his job to flag i thought, then give the ref a decision to make. The ref could see they were in the line of play, so no goal. But neither happened.

With this idiot there would have been no point in quoting anything like that, the bile that came out of his gob (at 6.45am !) showed that he wouldn't even register it. He didn't like me comparing him to a scouser though !
Aside from the sugar daddy and all the rest of his verbal shite I was struck more by how I immediately thought of FCUM. This prick was buzzing about the rag support at a lower league club. The raggies would have been there, 'giving it large' in the pubs and outside the ground before hand and then in the ground when the ten 15 year old home fans turned up. He was everything I associate with FCUM and everything that is vile about the raggies.

Plus those two titles were courtesy of their first sugar daddy John Henry Davies who saved the club from bankruptcy and oblivion in 1902, built them Old Trafford and ran the club at a loss for 25 years until his death.

Totally. But then again, it was Madley reffing.

I was in the barbers yesterday and had my city top on. Took my jacket off and this old boy pipes up laughing. ."you lot got battered didn't you" to which I replied we got one eye on the champions league and winked . Asked him who they played next in it and said HE DIDN'T KNOW!!!!!
just sat in the chair laughing to myself.

I'd always thought Davies bailed them out in 1919 (by which time they'd won two titles) but you're right of course.

 

[Colin Bell's Boots]

Not very original I know , but I just want to say that I f*cking hate the jammy b*stards who seem to get every easy draw in whatever competition that they are in, endless help from bent and incompetent referees, and an unlimited amount of a*se licking from the euphoric and sycophantic media, despite their football being utter sh*te, and them having some of the most imbecilic " supporters " any club could possibly have.

And I f*cking hate the tw*ts John Henry Davies and James Gibson - don't see why they just couldn't have left the odious a*sewipe of a club disappear off the face of the footballing world.

I said this on Facebook a week ago, United fan claiming they had never had a sugar daddy. I pointed out how much they love their history yet they have forgotten arguably the most important man from their past. I didn't get a reply!!

They were all getting giddy on Sunday because we lost as well. Quite sad really. They don't get much opportunity do they?

Fell off the front page so SCUM

The rags entered but withdrew at the request of the corrupt clowns at the FA who thought their participation in the World Club thing would help England get the 2006 World Cup. They didn't know the ultra-efficient German FA was paying bungs to ensure they'd get the nod.
The rags withdrew which is why one of the 2nd Round losers got re-instated. Had the rags (or even the FA) planned it from the start then they wouldn't have entered in the first place.
This was probably the first of many instances where the FA has fucked their own competition, culminating in 5-00pm kick-off times to sell it to more countries ignoring inconvenience to supporters and the latest nonsense about scrapping replays.

I can't be arsed to research but my memory was that it was the other way round. The scum wanted to go to SA and the craven FA just bent over when asked

 

[mcfc1632]

Only the rags and the FA will ever know what really went on unless someone in on it spills the beans. My guess is that the rags said "we're going to this money-spinning tournament" and a sympathetic FA, rather than have them field a reserve team, saw the opportunity to piggy-back their popularity and make it look as if both were doing the great English public a favour. The press being what it is, they were, of course, only too pleased to accept the official line. Any dissenting voices were quickly dismissed as mere quibblers and off they went.

I am sure that version is right - and the media got a jolly in SA

I kind of remember it being the other way round. United were really pushing to go and were even asking for a bye from the first (third) round which the FA refused.
