It won't happen in my lifetime so its not relevant to me. I'd much rather go to my grave knowing they'd never won another one between now and then.
I think people are mad believing United will never come back to be a force. Eventually they will get the right investment there, unfortunately it's too big a club not to.
But for now, I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts and if we can get to 10 league titles asap I'll be happy. Win it this year and we go level with Chelsea again on 5. They've only been a force for ten years and we have a stronger history so we should focus on them and other rivals like Arsenal and Spurs and let United do the self-imploding!
Might just about make it ...35 years
I'd go for something like the year 2051, maybe longer, maybe never.Some pisshead once famously used the phrase "not in my lifetime" and it came back to haunt him in the worst possible way. He was the leader of a cult of muppets who like to shout "20".
So this morning I get to thinking, how long before that, that last rod the rags wave will be taken from their grasp and us mighty blues start saying "21"?
I have zero doubt we will pass that mark in my lifetime, and then, and only then will I depart for the pearly gates.
So blues, think about it. Factor in Chelsea winning titles, factor in Arsenal rising again. Factor in Liverpool fluking a title win...actually I've taken it too far there. Factor in a random team winning a title long before the dippers.
So, for fun and giggles lets play Mystic Mal here and predict it...how long before we have lifted the title 21 times?
The life expectancy of people your age is going to come a long way down from what it is now because of societies appalling diets. So if you live to 96, well done to you lad!I'm 16 so I hope to have another 80 years left in me! ;-)

Seems a weird thread to me. Who's to say we'll ever do it. A league title was unimaginable 10 years ago, and a second title just 2 seasons later was astounding, but perhaps we might never win another again. Yes, it would be disappointing, but to really have the arrogance to think we'll still dominate the game in 30 years seems quite daft!
