Ah well, rag twats can't do us a favour now so let's hope it ends up a bag full.
Humiliate the fuckers big style please.

This ^^^^^^^^^

I don't know why i thought Chelsea would lose at home to a mid table team with nothing to play for.

 

[ManCitizens.]

The scum are terrible.

 

[samharris]

Woosh?

Um, because after going on about how shit he is, can't cross, dives etc, it was a joke saying so he is by far their best player then? It was irony. Ah well, never works if it has to be explained.

rags have looked the better side Chelsea look gash both other than when they catch the rags on the break. Our game against them will be a bore fest unless we can open them up early doors.

I think the rags are all but done as a force of world football. Someone will snap up Jizzmag and Rooney and RVP will jump ship leaving them with an average midtable team. No big players are going to want to join this shipwreck of a team either.

Money talks. I remember when barca declined and they signed Edgar Davids and they came back. Money talks.

Yes but will the Glazers use it? Their new CEO was already caught saying that even if a Liverpool situation happened and they became mid-table, they would still make a fortune. They might actually save more money on wages+fees being midtable than they'd lose from not being in the CL.

He should be careful what he wishes for. Liverpool are slightly different and have a different sort of global fanbase. United, in contrast, have a bandwagon supporter type, the vast majority of which will seek greener pastures if United become a mid-table club outside of the top levels. They may save on wages but will lose significant merchandising income (at first) and then sponsorship in kind (over the longer-term) as organisations find their advert deals reaching fewer and fewer targeted markets.

They are flirting dangerously with becoming the other United that saw a precipitous fall (because, despite what they may say, I can see an "over-reaction" transfer market raid).
