i know there's the running joke of "Salford United" .... thought the actual fact is (which we dont talk about) is that they are in Manchester's boundaries, not Salford ... or has the boundary map changed again? lol


Nope:

United not in Salford, but also not in Manchester. Stretford wasn't / hasn't been part of Manchester !
 
Its an old discussion one about the boundaries and changes. I read somewhere that in only 9 yrs of the scum history has the ground been within the City of Manchester. That sums it up really.

the only thing i'm changing will be the st mark crosses now someone has said they look like the nazi iron cross in another thread and all i'm seeing them as now.

probably just circles instead depicting bluemoons or something.

Would love to see what those 2 look like on our current kits ! I think they would be perfect if they included 1894 *Hint* *Hint*

They look fantastic – not sure the club would change now though after the years of marketing and brand awareness our owners have put in with the current badge... unfortunately.

Yep, just because Royal Mail use this map for the Postal Districts, doesn't mean Rags can use it to claim their ground as residing in Manchester:

Trafford. Man United are in the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford. Not Salford, not Manchester, but Trafford.

part 2 of the challenge... 'crossbar challenge' is now on the OS .... and spoiler alert ... they arent shooting from the half way line ... where's the fun in that? lol

The look on Aguero's face when he won, you think he'd just lifted the FA cup. Just shows how competitive professional footballers are.

Spoiler alert !! ;)

This has always been my favorite badge.

However, the ones shown earlier in the thread are absolutely superb, and in my opinion, better than the current one.

Love this badge but prefer the 3 stripes marking the 3 rivers of Manchester than the red rose of Lancashire.

Also the St Marks cross could be smaller on either side of the crest
