OK. Aren’t they normally a different colour, rather than black bold? Still,no mention of United fans or a link to their Chelsea rent boy chant story.

Talksport news didn't even united, just mentioned forest and us.
 
Anyway, now that shit show tonight is done we can get on with the exciting part of the week. What potentially unsettling negative story is going to appear in the press ahead of Saturday? Will it be a training ground bust up? An unhappy player pushing for a move or the old favourite of some financial irregularity? Can't wait to find out.

All three surely..
 
Manchester United are now odds on favourites to win the first silverware of the season, the wonderful Carabao cup, the fans cup, the people’s cup. What a statement this will be if the reds can win this magnificent trophy without the huge spending and state funded financial doping of certain other clubs.

It was reported yesterday afternoon that the judge in the Benjamin Mendy trial has told jurors that he'll accept majority verdicts rather than unanimity. If, as seems entirely plausible, the judge's direction presages verdicts before the end of the week on the charges against Mendy and his co-accused, I think we can expect a welter of negative press - even if they're found not guilty on all accounts.

Many of the charges are said to have arisen out of parties held at Mendy's residence attended by several of his City teammates. If media outlets so wish, and no doubt many of them do, it most likely won't be difficult to portray the conduct of some of our players and possibly even the attitude of our club in a highly negative light even if the trial determines that what happened at the events in question doesn't constitute the basis for convictions of rape or other sexual offences.

I'm not ITK on this and would be very happy to be wrong. But logic suggests to me that we should probably expect a considerable volume of extremely adverse publicity on this matter in the near future, even if it isn't this week. I'd expect that numerous outlets have stories ready to publish as soon as they're legally allowed to do so.
 
8 30 sports news this morning, raving about Southamptons win, played commentary from the end of the match, commentator positively orgasmic. No context to this you would never believe we lost to another Premier league team who had home advantage. No mention of the fact that we fielded a reserve strength team. Barely a mention of us when we beat Liverpool and Chelsea now today its a wank fest over us losing. They concluded by saying their will be a new name on the league cup this year they sure will as we put last year's holders out. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE

Let’s face it. Most prem players are seedy bastards. Honestly sick of it all reading the mendy stuff and learning what these players get up to just turns my stomach tbh.

Entitled spoilt fuckwits

I mean, isn’t this a backhanded compliment? It’s big news when we lose a game. I for one hope it remains so for as long as possible.
