Yep, I sacked off the Guardian pod many moons ago. I still dabble with the Times one, though it does involve putting up with Rudd (liverpool) on occasions, and Woozencroft (united) always. That being said, neither are anywhere near as bad as the Guardian pair.

It gets tedious listening to Wembley born Woozencroft informing everyone that he's a Manchester United supporter in every podcast, it's like we didn't know Griselda Rudd is a dipper. I can't remember ever hearing him claim to have got his feet dirty actually visiting the swamp though.
 
Good news this morning. Never looked at the rags score after i saw it was 2 nil. Caught a fb comment from a plastic rag this morning moaning. Too much to expect a 2 v 3 but every little helps.

Facts get in the way of a good click bait story. Bullshit and conjecture on the other hand…
One major positive of Open AI and the likes of Chat GPT is at least the wankers won’t be getting a salary from their bile in the near future. Delaney and co can go back to something more suitable to their limited talents like stacking shelves.

Fuck that, it'll take hours to find anything in the supermarket.

Top scorer in the Thursday night cup maybe? Don't know and don't care either way BTW :)

Edit: just seen the two goals from Sevilla last night, PMSL. What a way to concede a 2 goal lead at home. And why did it take two players to carry Martinez off? Surely a ball boy could have done it?

What struck me was it was 2 Seville players who did it. A snapshot of the great team work from the rags on show.

Old Trafford. So famous they had to rename the Met stop because the plastics kept getting off at the wrong stop.

Absolutely spot on there mate, I still call it Warwick Road.

I was going to a Lancashire county cricket match some years ago and at the corner of Talbot Road and Warwick Road I was approached by a family of five. The bloke said "excuse me can you tell me where Old Trafford is" (The Swamp), I replied "you are here" and walked into the cricket ground.

I used to work round there and would point the day trippers back towards town when they got off at Trafford bar. I did witness two Chinese tourists using Google maps to find it and dangerously walking down the central reservation on Chester road.
 
Heard Schmeichel on 5 live , after utd went 2 0 up say "we are back" and sorry to anyone offended by him saying it!!

Call me cynical but I think Ronay does articles like this now and again as cover for his other hatchet job articles, so he can claim some form of balance. The day after this he reverted back to type and wrote an article that included making stuff up about Tuesday night just to suit his narrative.

He has done a puff piece followed by sticking the boot in on more substantive issues too often for it to be coincidence imo.

In many ways I dislike him more than miggy, after all migs is completely transparent in his agenda and he's not really bright enough to cover his tracks.

Ronay is capable of writing coherent articles but despite this and apparently being the chief sports writer he deems it acceptable to make stuff up and twist things, presumably to fit an editorial narrative driven by click hunting. That's not really journalism is it.

Yep. Probably right. But the tide is turning when they have to publish such glowing articles about us when it sticks in their throat to do so!
