I hope he recovers fully but if it makes you feel any better I flicked over when they were playing to see the score and saw someone on a stretcher surrounded by medical staff, couldn't make out who, but my initial thought was I hoped it was a rag. Am I a bad person?

Yes. Simply for flicking over to see the rags score when City were playing.
 
Morning raggies. Delighted you've lost one of your better players for quite a while. You bunch of horrible cunts. You deserve every minute of the utter dross you're being served up.

Feel sorry for a young footballer called Luke. Get well soon.

Gary James the City tour guide!! Was Gary James on the Stretford End in the 70's or 80's? Or the away end at Anfield as darts rained down, or being baton charged by Liverpool supporting coppers. You don't need to take my word or Gary James word for it. Just ask any United fan over the age of 45. This non rivalry nonsense has been created and manufactured to fit into your own narrative, but none of you were actually there, and I don't even know why it's an issue all of a sudden. You want me to say that City have always been the ones that I fought with and hated, but it isn't true.

When I was a kid I could tell you every City fan who lived on my street or in my year at school. It was never violent or ugly. City scouts used to watch us playing matches on fog lane, I even attended the Mark Lillis soccer school in the summer once, and City players used to come to our school and we were always respectful to them. Paul Simpson walked his dog on Heaton Mersey common and Alex Williams lived in that 70's estate behind the Dog and Partridge on Didsbury road. We used to go to functions at the social club at Maine road. City were always part of where we grew up, as were United, but it was always a different type of rivalry. It didn't matter what feats United achieved currently or in the past, there was always a Blue in the corner of pub who would say "stuffy goal that by Cantona. He was trying to cross it...ee's not fit to lace Colin Bells boots."

It wasn't an evil or deeply hateful relationship, it was always good banter. It still survives to this day, sometimes on these pages. Now you can read what you want in a book and believe that, but I know what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears.

Can you actually show me where is said i was pro about him breaking his leg? I was more having a dig at the happy clappers and the political correctness brigade on here. Nowhere did i celebrate his leg break.

I would beat the kid like a red headed step child

Political correctness? It's called having a bit of empathy for a young lad who's suffered a potential career ending injury.
You sound like a right dick.

LOL






I hope he is overhyped but I feel he has the talent and abilities ( pace, dribbiling, control, shooting...etc) to shine

On a serious note, the Utd fans haven't been overly impressed with him so far. His goal on Tuesday may have changed one or two minds but the feeling I get from them is he's very wasteful on the ball and his delivery isn't, or at least hasn't so far, been very good.
There are hundreds of footballers in his mould, tricky, fast wingers who look great on a YouTube compilation but when asked to do it week in week out fade away until they end up at a crap club like Liverpool.
As for "Whatsisname" I'll reserve judgement until he's played more than a handful of minutes against a poor, poor Liverpool team.
