The rags have 55,000 S/T holders in a stadium with a capacity of 75,500. They claimed an attendance of about 74,363, a mere 1,000 below capacity. So while counting the 55,000 S/T holders in the official attendance they're saying there were close to 20,000 non S/T holders who turned up last night. Seeing as the actual attendance wasn't much above 35,000 (apart from acres of space all over the ground the top tier of the GPC stand was deserted) how do they reconcile this?

From a red who went last night
Last night 1,324 Bournemouth fans & 31,000 United. So total correct was 31,324 and not 74,363 that the divs who run the circus have announced. And that's the gospel from a true red that went & stayed till the very end, painful as it was to witness

31,000 + 1,324 <> 31,324.

It's tickets sold rather than those attending, so no doubt they counted those sold for Sunday's game. Doubt there was more than 40,000 there.

Well it should be nil then because they gave them all away! Even when it's free they can't fill their shithole, plastic, crumbling, rat infested shitty stadium.

We've all done it mate. In fairness it was dark and all concerned were pissed. I personally hold the black dude who used to come round selling roses responsible. He was clearly sober and in a position to point out to us that we were groping a pig in knickers.

At least you pulled ones that actually owned any knickers

I used to have a mate Tha could drink shed loads and rarely appeared pissed. I used him as my pal on patrol. If he saw me with a munter he was under strict instructions to talk me down. I often paid attention to what he said but just as often, would say "Don't be such a miserable red ****."

It all came to a crashing halt on what will be forever remembered as 'black Saturday in Blackpool'. Christ she was rough. He washed his hands of our agreement right then and there.

I guess the irony was a little lost on him/her! Any of you lot on Twitter care to, er, put him/her right on one or two issues? I would, but I'm not on Twitter (no friends, see?).

Sorry? I often browse on there. Among the sea of shite is the odd useful bit of information or the odd funny comment (as above). I don't feel the need to register on there so I can post comments. It's not that difficult a concept to grasp, honestly.

I did express my opinion. It was underwhelming as I said in my first post, I mentioned it in my second post, and now the third time here. http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/underwhelmed

I guess it's a matter of semantics that I'm not aware of. Best we move on.

Underwhelming - it was a f*cking disgraceful and spineless performance - enough semantics in that for you ?

Over and out !
 
I see they've been offered another player from Spain - it's Valencia this time offering them Andre What is their fucking secret, they were being offered someone from Real Madrid the other week. Lucky fuckers, they don't even need scouts..

Well you did ask if I was unhappy with the performance, and I did answer I was underwhelmed

What's the point of asking it in the first place if the only answer you want to accept is that of your own. Not trying to rile you up. I'll give you spineless performance yes I would agree to that. But embarassed by it no, just underwhelmed, unhappy, displeased.

CBB do the thread a favour and don't reply. I have just read through the last dozen or so pages and you seem to have diverted the thread from its topic. You can pop over to 'Well done boss' or many others to make the points you seem determined to - you are spoiling this thread IMO
 
One thing stood out for me from the Liverpool shambles:

"This team will be a bit different next season, it is clear," said Klopp. "We will do something with transfers."

Just how are Utd and Chelsea going to rebuild their squads without Champions League football and in what will be the biggest transfer window spend of all time? Everyone has cheque books now, and the proposition of playing for Chelsea or Man Utd isn't as great as it was.

Man Utd fans focussed all season on LVG, but it's clear to me that the problems are so much deeper. If De Gea goes, that creates a huge hole, and their midfield is non-existent. Schweinsteiger is finished. So is Carrick. So if Rooney. Herrera just gives fouls away. mata is too slow and lightweight. Fellaini is their best man but to get the best out of him you have to play him further forward and Utd fans rightly wont tolerate that. They have no wingers to speak of: Valencia, Young and Depay???!!!! Smalling defends by Octopus tactics which have been rumbled. The one bright spark is martial and possibly Rashford. Over-hyped but they might have something

Overall they have never been in a weaker position and they are going to find it very very difficult standing out in what will be a very expensive transfer window.
 
Not enough is said about schweinsteiger. The scum got fucking mugged there big time. Was it a loan or transfer?
They are quickly becoming the destination of choice for ageing superstars in decline or with career ending injuries.
