Interesting facterooney for you all.

TT has now been in the job for the same amount of time as Mark Hughes was City manager.

You remember, the manager that spent a shit ton of money, went on a run of games without a win, and had us completely rudderless for 18 months?

I wonder if the backlash from TT getting sacked (if he does this week, which seems to be likely), will be anything near what we got when MH got sacked?

Fucking doubt it.

Scum.
 
The thought of Rafa going to utd has just tipped me over the edge! Fuckinell, surely we aren't going to get that lucky? I know Karma is meant to be a woman but this is Too much! Hahahahaha!

Gary and Phil Chuckle might be back at Carrington with the rest of sir fergie's minions from the 90s laying the cones and carrying Lucazade, hardly pulling up trees at Valencia at the moment.

Surely they could find a roll for that c:@t Robbie Savage in the set up, he was like the 5th Beetle in the class of 92.

The perfect fumble said:
I was of the opinion that the Utd brand was in the "too big to fail" category, that they'd reached a stage where even a prolonged period of under performing on the field would not dent the money rolling in. Woodward quoted how the Liverpool cow had dried up on the field yet could still yield oodles of money from it's clapped out udders, but the truly global nature of the game has speeded things up in a way that even the money men and pundits are having difficulty comprehending and City's rapid rise has demonstrated this in a way that has taken many, including many blues, by surprise.

Maybe astronomical brand rises are now to be matched by monumental brand falls, where brand loyalty is now fickle, rather than rock solid, passed down the generations by family and perpetuated by your peers.

As you say, maybe the Utd brand is not as secure as we all thought.

Interesting times.

The security of the brand is a negative for their fans, not a positive.

The fans? The club sees them as cattle, consumers and nothing more.

We know where football is right now and where fans rate in this money making mega, global, galactic bullshit, there are precious few angels in club ownership but there's only one Red Devil.
