Fuck me!

That's even before I arrived on this planet!

55 years. Is TT trying to out-gollum gollum in terms of records broken?

To para-quote some old pisshead, not in your or my lifetime.....

Van Gaal out? But how can United sack Van Gaal if they're not a sacking club?

Van Gaal is everything we could hope for a United manager to be. It really is comedy gold. Depay's diving header is one of the funniest things I've seen on a football pitch.

You forget Jones's "header on the floor" so easily??

A classic indeed, but Wigan De Pie's today was hilarious.

Dunno about that - while it certainly isn't funny from a City point of view, Jamie Pollock's og v QPR and Margetson's far lesser mentioned fuck up from the same match both trump it IMO.

That said, relatively speaking we were nose-diving in to the 3rd tier of English football and most of our players were shite anyway whereas according to Soccerex Depay is the third best young footballer in Europe so yeah, fuck it, Memphis DeShite's failed diving header back pass comes out on top!

 

[almir]

holy fuck, just saw depay's header. hahaha, what the fuck was that, lol

Smiled earlier today at the comment by Dwight Yorke that Stoke always raise their game against the big clubs. Only you bird brain think they are a big club.

He's like an over-cooked chicken.

 

[Blue Haze]

Rags in full panic mode if this happens

Benitez to Swamp?

Oh you are awful.


































But I like you.

 

[IanBishopsHaircut]

Still pisses me of how the majority of city fans and Pellegrini were happy with a 0-0 draw at their place.

It's a derby..remember we used to smash them occasionally..even when we were shite

Glad to see a few posters actually looking at the big picture on here! Problems start and end with the Glazers

They are leeches. At a time when City have had £1BN worth of investment and Chelsea have spent £1BN on transfer fees alone under Abrahmovic, Utd have had to pay £700m for the privilege of these cretins running our club

Imagine where we would be with that cash invested in players and facilities! How does that not make people's blood boil? All of the anger being directed at van Gaal should be going their way

Another gem from ragcafe.
Funny how it wasn't a concern when taggart was in charge and they was winning everything.
Typical of the rag softarses to come out with a comment like that when operation win every match goes tits up.
Green and gold scarfs must be getting an airing soon.....

So the Raggies are at a cross roads, do they back or sack poor LVG? His track record at destroying Barcelona didn't even need anyone with a footballing brain to see its been a car wreck waiting to happen.

Do they resort to the family man as interim manager? The whole class of 92 thing and looking backwards to the good old days would be a repeat of what happened with liverpool. Appointing the likes of Souness and Roy Evans held the scousers back years as to where they have never recovered from the hangover of the 'glory days'.

Do they appoint Giggs who has seemed to have undermined the last two appointments, using his mates to come out and slag the manager whilst he has said nothing to support the guy above him. Are those attributes that you look for in a leader who will take an organisation forward, being a 5th column within a club just so you can make some money making a cringe worthy tv program about being a crap care taker manager.

Then there is the clean sweep option, the hordes from Bracknell and Colchester were chanting for Jose yesterday at Stoke. The guy who couldn't get a tune out of Hazard, Costa,fabregas and Oscar. The so called United faithful will think he can wave a magic wand with Rooney, whatshisname, Jones and Depay. One of their better players in Mata was deemed surplus to requirements by Jose so will be straight out of the door when he comes in.

If they appointed Jose how much money would they need to sort that squad out? 100 million? 200 million? Then there is the job of persuading top players to come, would you go to old trafford to play for Jose with his long list of players he's fallen out with? Ronaldo, hazard, casillas, Costa, fabregas, Robben to name a few. Why go to old trafford when you could be playing down the road for what looks like it will be Pep?

All in all its a fantastic situation from our side of things, watch the collapse of that obnoxious club in trafford whilst our upward trajectory in football keeps going. Merry Christmas fellow blues.

The rag thread on guardiola is hilarious

They are making themselves feel better by the fact that some Bayern fans may hate us

Great post, FMAHWS.

Penny is starting to drop regarding the myth that is "The United Way"

Agreed, I'm sick of hearing this "United Way" shit. You just can't run a football club like that in 2015, and if we aren't careful we're going to fall behind the major players and end up a mid table side for a long time.
The league is too solid now and doesn't allow for more than a very short spell of mediocrity

 

[Blue Maverick]

Rag at work says they should put Neville and Giggs in place at the end of the season because they will stay more than 4 years, he doesn't like all this changing managers every 3/4 years, I said welcome to the real world of football post Fergie that's how it's done the world over, he's deluded thinking the class of 92 would stay for a long time!!

Nice post to send off to the nationals !

Has Gary Neville won a game since going to Valencia? Be perfect for the philosophy of nil nil arena. Your work colleague is correct give them a ten year contract and we could have a right laugh.

 

[Sigh]

Enjoyed the Stoke game. Tremendous.

 

[sir baconface]

I had to put this on here purely for quivering bollock comment.
Ragcafe don't half produce these fine moments of comedy gold.

Well spotted. :-D

Bryan Briggs' rôle at the swamp is to undermine the current incumbent of the manager's chair, by leaking little titbits to the media or asking someone from the crass of 92 to criticise the state of the club, including saying it would never have happened under the pisscan until such time as the board has no choice but to give the adulterous, back-stabbing, sister-in-law-shagging, cross-eyed weasel the job because no one else will touch it with a barge pole.

May I respectfully ask you not to make comments that might adversely affect the promotion of the honourable family man?

#SOD and #SOL were too little, too late. We need to make Bryan ours, and early.
