Simon “Salford” Stone once again showing his true colours:

Accuracy in front of goal has let Man Utd down - how can we fix that?​

Man United Q&A

Simon Stone


We ?

To be fair, that's the question that was asked in a Q&A, not specifically his own question.

I think the idea that he's basically holding a therapy session for needy MU fans is more offensive.
 


He sounds gutted it wasn't a record. Weird thing to add...

They've all been predicting it would be a British record for a defender due to RBLs apparent insistence on €100million+ so it's no surprise surely? And I've love to know how he "sounds gutted" from a few typed words.


(damn this thread, it's got me defending Simon Stone. At least it's not miggzy or the shut in)
 


He sounds gutted it wasn't a record. Weird thing to add...


It was a brief from the club to many journalists who have all written the same thing.

Mike Minay, Jack Gaughan, Sky Sports have all written that it wasn't a record and lower than utd paid for Maguire.
 
At 1-2 I remember putting my hands on the shoulders of my friends son in the seat in front of me saying “Thomas, you’re 8 years old, you need to ‘man up’ son, you’ve got another 70 years of this shite to look forward to”
Similar here. My son was 7 and so sat on my knee to see better. When Dzeko equalised he jumped up. I dragged him strongly back on my knee and told him to shut up as it was a ”nothing goal” that just made it worse we were gonna fall short. He still reminds me 11 years later
 
My experience of that Aguero moment was the same.

I could see that it was happening, that it really was about to happen after all the drama and angst of that afternoon.. but in that split-second you’re not sure if it WILL actually happen.

I remember putting my hands on the shoulders of my friend’s son in the seat in front of mine, saying ‘Here it is!’ as Sergio shaped to shoot and then everything was a blur after he planted the ball pass Kenney.. next thing I can remember, we’re all in the aisle next to me, the guys sitting behind me falling over me and sundry others around who’d leapt out of their seats too!

Fast forward eleven years to the ‘Rodri Moment’ and it was just as exciting and unexpected as Aguero’s ‘93.20’, even though it was watching it on tv and not live in the stadium.

But, given how the game has developed in recent years, this magic moment came with a caveat.. VAR.

After leaping up again with my family on seeing Rodri score, my immediate joy was then tempered by questioning ‘There’s no way there’s any offside or foul there.. is there?’

Then when it was confirmed, more ecstasy, bliss, whatever you want to call it..! The greatest footballing moment I’ve ever experienced, to see my club do that, the treble, after everything we Blues have been through in my lifetime.

So, stick that in yer pipe and smoke it, ‘Jason Grimsby’ and all the partial media johnnies who seek to undermine us.. you’ll never take that away from us.
I’m still convinced Gundo handled it controlling the pass from Phil near the dead ball line…
