[Ancient Citizen]

Who can forget cavalier cut & thrust of Dave Sexton's legends ?

Or the swashbuckling swagger of the heroes assembled for the ''Frank O'Farrell Hour,'' as Match of the Day was then known.

These stories of player mutinies.....ok, pisstakes aside and whatever you think of Van Gaal as a manager....he was giving players advise, trying out different tactics and the players were ignoring him? Depay was showing up to the reserves (where he was sent to work harder and to "ground him") in a Rolls Royce?

Van Gaal is a strange, eccentric man, but their players are not exactly coming out looking like saints in all of this. And if they are finding Van Gaal too much of a PIA then how will they take to effin Mourinho of all people?

It would seem that the Tactical Turtle is now being subjected to the expected smear campaign - so that the Rags don't look like the bad guys for sacking him... and sadly their plastic, glory-hunting fans will believe the bullshit served up to them without question!

Mourinho... well his appointment is laughable! It is just a knee-jerk reaction to us getting Pep in my opinion. After Baconface left the club made no secret of letting everyone know that Mourinho was not a 'Manchester United manager'. And to be honest the few rags I know and the ones I work with didn't want him then, and don't want him now! His brand of football is no improvement on Van Gaals - 1-0 boring wins... not the 'United way' don't ya know!?! He will demand a fortune to spend, and will neglect their youth... Rashford etc. etc., can kiss goodbye to first team football... probably on loan to Hull by the start of next season... Mata too will be out of the door!

So is the appointment as much about the share price,or the panic because of the Pep factor?.

This appointment is an attempt to ensure they are still 'talked about'...
They are worried that when pep arrives, he will be the top billing in town.

Don't be silly.

Not now that he's part of our beloved National Institution that is the rags.

Your right Lords Ticket of Tout & Govan of PissCan have just dismissed the case.
