United thread 2013/14

He was with his little boy. Granted not speeding down the Alps but was still skiing with a thigh injury.

Footballers are simply not allowed to do potentially dangerous sports like skiing, certainly not someone at his level. It would be in his contract for sure. Who saw him and where? If it was him then that's basically two-fingers to Moyes & the rags.

this. your also not allowed to ride a motorbike.

I thought that at one time our very own SWP (not the Blue Mooner) had a motorbike ??

It's still their treble to throw away....they always come good in the second half of the season

Nemanja Vidic contract extension at Manchester United 'ruled out'
• Agent says defender could leave in summer
• Vidic's deal runs out at end of season
• Rio Ferdinand's future remains in doubt

Glazers hand David Moyes £100m to stop alarming slide at Manchester United

DAVID MOYES has been handed a £100million-plus war chest to rebuild Manchester United and halt the club’s worrying decline.

By: Richard TannerPublished: Tue, January 7, 2014

The Glazer family, United’s American owners, have told Moyes they will back him on any signing he wants to make either this month or in the summer, providing they are not simply short-term fixes.

After months of intensive scouting around Europe, Moyes is understood to have handed United’s hierarchy a list of targets that includes Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke, Borussia Dortmund pair Marco Reus and Ilkay Gundogan, Porto’s Eliaquim Mangala and Southampton’s Luke Shaw.

But Moyes’ dilemma is that while he desperately wants to make one or two signings this month, none of his targets is likely to become available until the summer when he may well be left with the task of buying half-a-dozen new players.

Neither Moyes nor United’s board are understood to want to blow money on panic-buys or short-term fixes having got their fingers burned by the £27.5m deadline-day signing of Marouane Fellaini, who has had a disastrous start at United.

That means Moyes is bracing himself to have to rely on the current squad to ensure United – currently seventh – finish in the top four and qualify for next season’s Champions League. Failure to do so would make attracting world-class players even more difficult as well as denting United’s revenue streams.

how could anyone be duped by this?

1. There is no way they will spend £100 million in a January window
2. There scouts have been doing intensive research for the last three months.
So what the fuck have they been doing before that? And how come these experts with their intensive research come up with a list any ardent follower of the transfer forum could produce?
3. Do they really believe that any of those named players would be signed sealed and delivered in 23 days?
4. You couldn't get a combination of three of them for less than £100 million
5. the only truth in the article: That means Moyes is bracing himself to have to rely on the current squad

how come scum fans are so gullible?

Perhaps they've given him that money to fuck off.

Is it just me... or does the one on the left look like a young person dressed as an old person? If anyone gets me? I mean like, in a film when the actor has to play an old person, they put him in make-up and add some winkled skin to make it look as though he's older when in fact you know he isn't. Just looks really weird, like Tom Cruise in that Tropic Thunder.

They have got to keep the tills ringing at the megastore down at the swamp somehow.
Just continue to feed 687 million fans with what they want to hear and they will keep coughing up
For how long though?
