After losing to the rags, BBC running a story on how our women's team are trophy-less since 2022 under the headline 'whats gone wrong'.

Great example of throwing a dead cat on the table as United flirt with relegation and everything there is going wrong on a daily basis. They must have been warned off more 115 bollocks

We should probably cash in & sell them for £200m….

Strange post. Dibble is 60, TC nearly 64 and Corrigan is 78. They each look good for it

I wouldn’t say Coton looks good for 64 mate. I’ve seen blokes in their fifties look far worse tbf, but I’d say he looked relatively not as good for his age as the other two, who, as you say, both look good for it.

This all day long. He’s a selfish **** that made it all about him, shooting from 25yards, a few went in most went row z.

Now he was good technically & great athlete but if you added Lampards timing, Scholes vision then you’re getting closer to KDB. Hes not behind them, he’s all of them rolled into 1 but better.

Gerrard admits Alonso made him look better than he actually is.

Complications relating to his career ending injury? Maybe he can't do any running, ...etc., who knows?

I still think that he's the best keeper "that I've ever seen play for us"

He was a brilliant keeper, I'll never forget him keeping us out at Watford where we lost 1-0...he gets into a fantastic City performance top 3 by playing for us later along with Joe Hart v Dortmund and a left field one a guy called Green for Shrewsbury (2-2) draw at ours who later played for our reserves (badly).

Maybe. Or maybe, like me, he struggles with his weight a bit because he likes food and booze too much! It’s a free country! Or could be a combination of both.

It’s no biggie. I certainly don’t think he looks terrible for his age, just don’t agree that he looks brilliant for 64 based on that photo.

He was a brilliant keeper, I agree. A superb shot stopper, commanding in the box and his handling was really good as well. I think, like many keepers of his vintge he struggled with the back pass law when it came in, and so I wonder how he’d cope with the modern game, but you can only fairly judge someone against the time they played in.

Tim Flowers always seemed to play out of his skin whenever Southampton turned up in the late 80s and early 90s too, can't remember specific matches though, although he never actually played for us (if I'm remembering right - my memory has holes)

Wasn't calling him out for it (or you), just saying there might be a reason for it.

They've all earned the right (not that anybody doesn't have that right - free country as you rightly point out) to relax and do whatever they want with their bodies as far as I'm concerned.
 
BBC rewriting history …. AGAIN
