19 Points... Never Forget, Never Forgive

[Chippy_boy]

The thing that's REALLY astonishing is that they have no excuses.

It's not like they have a new manager, trying to find his feet. It's Mourinho, in his 2nd season at the swamp and what, 7th or 8th season in the PL?

It's not like they haven't had any money to spend, nor that they haven't spent much.

It's not like they've bought youngsters and been building for the future.

No, they have gone absolutely balls out to win the league at whatever cost, with whatever short term, stop gap solution is needed. They've given their absolute best shot, and finished 19 points behind. A truly STAGGERING level of failure.

Wenger might be tempted to call Mourinho a specialist in failure ;-)

This exactly! They even went out and bought the mercenary in January for mega wages. I cannot believe they are not getting slaughtered from all sides, cup final or not.

You could always start with this guy on TripAdvisor.

They've really learned nothing from having Liverpool fans taunt them with 18 titles for all those years. The more you ram it down people's throats, the sillier you look when you're eventually toppled.

To me it was a club sanctioned banner which was aimed at pisstaking our club. That's why it always grates on me how that shit stain of a club is seen as some saint of English football.

It was done with the permission of the owners. the chairman, the board and the manager. Also I will never forget going into my local to watch City live and Rags arriving in their red shirts just to have a laugh because of our lowly position. They are and always will be just United fans NOT football fans.

In honour of their announcement that they have even more "fans" than since last time they checked/made up the numbers.

Hahahah. Very good.

There was nothing funny about that banner but it doesn't surprise me the wankers found it funny. I worked with one rag who had a watch with it on that went up every year like the hated banner.

Oh my God.

Oh my God.

True Pam I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. No idea where he got it from. Of course they thought it would just keep on going up forever.
