MANCHESTER United fan John Retter is backing his Old Trafford idols all the way with this huge tattoo.
Trucker John, 51, paid nearly £1,000 to have the Red Devils' crest etched.

The work took 16 hours and he spent the time reading boss Sir Alex Ferguson's biography to take his mind off the pain.

Ecstasy ... badge is nearly finished, But John, who never misses a game on TV, insists it was worth the discomfort to have the tattoo that covers most of his back.

He said: "It's a brilliant badge with so much history. I'm proud to wear it."

Agony ... John Retter's tattoo in progressReferring to the club's famously rivalry with Liverpool, John, of Paignton, Devon, added: "As soon as the sun's out, I'll be flaunting it on the beach - although I'll probably get chased by a load of Scousers."

His partner Liz Brady, 44, said: "I think it looks great."

Tattooist Tony Gallon said: "It's the biggest football badge I've ever had to do."

I've got a rag mate who one European game V Besiktas declared he was going to that game. Throughout the day at work he was saying he couldn't wait to go and giving it the big'n. 'Old Trafford is a mint stadium, the atmosphere is always better than anywhere'. Anyway the next day he comes in and we say, 'Enjoy it last night lad'? He says, 'yeah it was mint, top atmosphere'. We said. 'fuck me, how did you get back from Turkey so fast to make work?'.......

Silence. complete and utter silence.

I remind him of that on an almost weekly basis. He has still never been to a match.

imagine if someone had a tattoo just like that but with the MCFC logo offcourse and doing a shirtless poznan, would be neat.

Could've spent that £1000 on a season ticket and transport.
