United thread 2017/18

I've read the evening news tonight. Its now been generally accepted by all United fans that 'park the bus' football is necessary if you want to win games. Their imagined 'ethos' of United flying down the wings playing attacking expansive football is now consigned to the scrap heap. His racehorses will not be able to run free down the motorway in case they get clattered by Peps juggernaut. Shire horses are the future (new contract for Fellaini).

It would appear that winning1-0,away at mid table sides like Southampton is the true indication of champions elect.
I wonder when the bookies will start paying out ..

I find it even more odd that we're not included in either the calculations or being a 'title rival'

Yet another example of our great club being airbrushed out of the picture as if we dont exist.
Some folk think its down to 'clickbait' reasons.lol.
This is just.. lets completely ignore City.

I got my grand off them, just hoping Chelsea are top by December to get another bet up and of course Liverpool only have to top the table at any point and I will have the treble up.

Mourinho has been angered by the lack of foresight in the Premier League’s scheduling and his side face 3pm Saturday kick-offs against Brighton and Huddersfield after taking on Benfica and Basel away from home in the remainder of the group stage

It takes about the same time to fly back from Lisbon and less time to fly back from Basel than it does to take the train from Euston to Piccadilly.

They get an extra day and are at home, while City are in Ukraine, before the derby though. I assume that will be unfair too for the whining little git.

It always make me chuckle when some sad-sack who's been to old trafford less times than me, tries to take the piss out of our attendances, like he has any fucking worthwhile stake in the joke. Fucking loser.

It's been clinically dealt with. To be fair, it probably didn't need my input as a few United fans on there called him out on it too. Sounds like they were match-going reds as well who, funnily enough, tend to go on about empty seats at City far less than their armchair fanbase.

I'm all for a bit of "banter" but you've got to have sufficient grounds to dish it out. It's like those people who desperately try and crow-bar themselves into in-jokes when they meet a new group of people. It looks more than a little pitiful.

Surprise Surprise! The BBC are running a United themed documentary on 8 October to mark the Funeral Dodging Ticket Tout's 80 th Birthday.

Aah Bless.

Spot on. Reminds me of the other half's son. Always spouting off about empty seats at City yet he's been to about half a dozen games at Old Trafford in the quarter of a century he's been alive. In fact, there was a time a few years ago when he had more United tattoos than actual games attended.

I feel a life lesson is needed in the form of a punch in the gob xD
