I spoke to a mate of mine on the phone this morning; long term United fan, going to matches since he was a kid. His Dad has a tattoo of United trophies covering his entire back and they've been going home and away for decades.
He's absolutely fuming. Going on about how the "Men In Black" stopped Rooney from going to City and how if Ronaldo goes to City then the United fans will riot and get the Glazers out (?), and how Ronaldo would need physical security around Manchester. Sent me some screenshots where some Red Issue types are going off their fucking head, some saying he's a traitor and they're going to throw things at him if he scores at OT and celebrates, others in a massive delusion saying that he loves United and he'd never go to City and that actually this is a conspiracy/"come and get me" plea to the Glazers who refuse to pay his wages (?).
So I'm enjoying that aspect of this saga if nothing else.
