..become nothing more than an irrelevance to us ?

I don't, nor do i mean to get to far ahead of myself, but the though had crossed my mind.
Let's be honest, up until 2008 and the derby win at o.t. under sven and the takeover, we were really nothing more than a small thorn in their side. Now of course were the whole bloody thorn bush, drawing blood from just about everywhere possible.
I mean if Chelsea get stronger with new signings like it looks like they will, and we also add some key players in certain area's to push on again for another title, and European honours, where will united figure in things ? I just can't see them buying big and even coming close to filling the holes that Briggs and Scowls leave when they pack it in the 5 years time.
In short are united the next arsenal ? And will us and Chelsea be fighting for top spot ? I'd love to see the bugger's fade a little and start maybe struggling for a UCL spot, see fergie take them back to where they were when he started, and see how the horrids react to being average at best. It sounds bad but with the crap I've put up with for decades from their so called loyal winning fans, i wan't us to twist that blue dagger again and again like we did on the last day of the season. I want them to feel our pain, like we did for 20 yaers, but unlike our fan's i know they will never be able to cope emotionally. Am i all twisted ???? Lol. CTIDAB.
 
Sadly they ain't going anywhere in the foreseeable future - a constant cash cow

One step at a time , few guys on here gettin a bit ahead of themselves or in other words arrogant

Read what i said, i'm not getting ahead of myself i'm asking when it MAY happen if it does.
I'm not counting titles or anything like.
 
Financial fair play was made for them, Barca, Madrid etc...

Their global fan base will always ensure the tills are ringing and they will certainly be a threat for the next 3 years at least or while whisky nose is still manager.

The got their nose bloodied by Chelsea but then won the league 4 out of the next 5 seasons!

Still the biggest threat next season for certain as too soon for Chelsea.

Totally disagree with that bit, even when we were in the third tier they were singing about us, the "obsession" cut both ways.

Personally I don't want them to be an irrelevance, beating them to the trophies most seasons would be far more enjoyable.
 
While I don't want them to win anything, I like the idea of a strong rivalry and really battling with them for trophies.

At the same time, it would be great to see them go backwards and see what we had to go through while they laughed.
