The Class of '92 were a very fortunate windfall for the Stretford Serpents, that helped perpetuate the myth of being a perpetual conveyor-belt of youth talent.
Without these, MUFC would face carried on raiding their competitors for the likes of Irwin, Pallister, Bruce, Phelan, Yorke etc.
This does not include the huge marque signings of Ferdinand, Keane and Schmeical etc...

Yes, just like the Coutinho sale for the Dippers
Perpetuated a myth for years that very fortunate flop signing

What was Jordan trying to suggest with that comment? Don't think I've ever heard that legal term? Does he even know himself?!

Think the move them along comment is suggesting the premier league have stronger case which as we know they haven't .

I like that guy.

BBC encouraging the narrative that the champions league is different this year (why, well probably because we won it).

Posting stuff like this. We ruin everything for everybody and I fucking love it.

"Two legged champions league ties are more focused on generating money, than much entertainment. Dull. One-off knock out would be much better."
George, Birmingham

"For some reason, the champions league just doesn't feel the same this year."
Mie, Surrey

"Might be as a United fan that I would say this, but the Champions League feels to me like it’s lost its aura. Maybe the attempts for a super league undermining it or the decline of some of Europes legacy clubs in recent years making it less competitive. Has lost abit of its shine for me."
Michael, Manchester

Oh Michael…… you little whopper

At a time when the 3 foreigner rule was created otherwise most would have been shipped off quicker than you can say ‘stadium of light’.

United fans think the UCL has lost its aura because they can't put together a competent team.

Hes stumped himself there. The decline of the legacy clubs is his exact problem. His legacy club is garbage therefore he's lost interest.

Also 2019 saw insane 2nd legs for City vs Spurs, Spurs vs Ajax, Liverpool vs Barca and the incredible underdog run of Ajax in general.

And 2022 saw City have 2 absolute classic 2 leg games against both Madrid sides, even if the Real one went tits up for us.

It really does boil down to hearing every year that City were going to win it, everyone celebrating that we didn't, and then we finally do it and suddenly the competition is ruined.

We are the most talked about football club in the world, I can live with that.

It seems to be a regular distraction tactic away from City, whenever Phil is being analysed :-
"Ask the pundits where Phil should play for England ?"
This immediately takes the topic away from Phil and City's performance in that particular game.
If City were beaten, this would not be mentioned at all.
Cannot understand why Saka's name was even mentioned ?
Was the female anchor person who brought up Saka, an Arsenal fan ?
Personally, I would play Phil for England as a #10, but this is a completely different conversation...

Woods is an Arsenal fan, common knowledge

Is Simon reporting for more than one newspaper nowadays?

Dunno levets, not seen him for a while

When I ask this question please remember I am not just an FOC but a VERY, VERY Old one!!!

What exactly does 'doing it organically' mean?? Organically to me refers to 'clean' soil, i.e. not contaminated by chemicals. Or in business something that grows from within the business so therefore I would assume that us not doing/growing organically must mean that all the other clubs have only used Academy players?

Or am I overthinking this?
Whatever the answer(s) I just know that I support:
THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD and all the other teams are not a patch on us. *shrugs shoulders* so there!! ;-) :-)



Sorry, daft half hour I guess. :-)

Not daft at all.
Actually, the rags might've came with the term as a self reckoning, manure is mostly organic
