United game postponed due to bomb scare

Does anyone else think the Rags game will still be on first on tonights BBC's MOTD

 

[Jack the United fan]

It's set up for Rashford to score the winner and nab a place in the Euros squad.

I don't think he'd get in to be honest with you. Kane, Vardy, Sturridge and Rooney will probably be the four he takes, and he'd be behind them all. I'd much rather we gave him a good rest, we've overplayed him like mad anyway.

It's what he does.

He drives me mad. Some were saying in the run up to the WHU game what a shame it was he was banned. Van Gaal and Moyes have slowly dragged down the expectations.

6th / 7th still shite.

We have now finished above them 3 years on the run. When did that last happen?

Not only that but over the last 3 years the rags have been higher than City for a grand total of 4 weeks.

so either's someone's taken the piss, someone's a shit bomber or the authorities have used it as a way to a) have a test and b) criminalize football fans again and strengthen their "security" measures next season i.e. beat the crap out of us.

The last 2 don't deserve to be. Rooney hasn't been up to scratch as as striker since 2012 and Sturridge needs to prove his fitness. Not saying I think Rashford should make the squad (I don't) but if I was manager Sturridge and Rooney would be watching on the TV at home.

the game could not take place and united could give the points to them in a away win 0.1 and settle for 6th with the 6th place already in Europe

That's a worrying insight for a fan re: medium to long term outlook.
Sometimes it just creeps up and before you realise, the next ray of hope has waaaay too much of it pinned on them. Seen a lot of it in the nougties at our place, though I think the rot had set in long before that. (And therein lies the problem).
While I'm very much an 'up-team' kind of person, constructive criticism should never be completely ignored.

Nope, that would be refusing to fulfil the fixture. Bournemouth would be awarded a 3-0 win and the rags would get a fine and a points deduction. Remember how Boro got themselves relegated?

With all the terror training exercises taking place in Manchester this week, call me cynical but this could have been the biggest test and exercise yet. Very few people would have known about it to set it up, and it would have been a true test of the emergency services b

at least the megastore sales wouldn't have been affected as much. Presumably vast majority of their sales are pre kick off?

But the rest is a real ahole.

For starters, it might give some copy cat idiots ideas, and show that you only have to create something that looks sinister to get such a huge game called off!

Earthquake Said
Aye, shouldn't be affected today, but if they reschedule the game to an empty arena, that's a day of missed potential sales.

It's fecking horrific, pricks will be trying this all over now.

Priorities, priorities...

Modern united fans eh.
