Rag Desperation
Apologies if already posted, but yesterday I came across a poster advertising tickets for the rags' upcoming games against Newcastle and Galatasaray.
The fact that they're struggling to sell out for a Champions League game is hilarious enough, but the accompanying tagline is priceless:
'Rooney can't hear you shouting from your sofa.'
You couldn't make it up.
Sorry for the lack of photographic evidence, if I come across it later today I'll be sure to take a picture.

Re: Rag Desperation
1 -They consistantly have 28,000 more bums on seats than we do.
2 -That variance is more than the entire attendance of the Britannia on saturday.
3 - Shurrup

Tick tock.
how do you know it's announced tomorrow
Because the club has said so. There's even a live conference call at 4pm you can listen in to on their investor relations website if you want.

The share price has shot up to $12.85 today so somebody's expecting a good set of financials although market professionals are convinced they'll be rather worse than last year (due to lack of trophies, early exit from the Champs League, etc.) which is the reason they launched the IPO before they were obliged to declare them.

Is it anything to do with 2 decades of unrivalled success, both on and off the field, which increased the demand for tickets and spurned the re-development of their stadium, so that clueless daytrippers from all over the world could sit 3 miles away from the action and wave their half and half scarves, whilst wondering which of the moving red dots on the pitch are Ronaldo and Beckham.
