United thread 2017/18

There isn't a fucker alive that didn't support them growing up according to the media.

Makes you wonder how other teams got money from ticket receipts when every person in the known universe has a busby babes blanket cover and a Phil Jones mobile above their crib.


C***ts.

The kids would be too frightened to go to sleep seeing his gurning face staring down at them.

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

yup

and leicester are not an easy team to play against....hope Mahrez doesn't play ....

Vardy is always a danger...limited player but his pace against our defensive set up is always a risk

Apart from at there place, earlier in the season.

 

[oakiecokie]

Taken off pretty sharpish then.

Nope it was on most of the day.

 

[East Level 2]

If Newcastle use the gameplan they used against us the ball won't move out of the centre circle all game.

I'd settle for the 0-0 that would result, but some dickhead Barcode is likely to score an og if the rags are struggling.

 

[worsleyweb]

Got a feeling Rafa is improving Newcastle enough to get a draw here.

 

[Newman Noggs]

Hope Shelvey is playing. And not for his talent.

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Is the correct answer.

e e e :-D

That's a small article from the business section. Nothing in the sports section. Perhaps I'm betraying my lack of business knowledge here but why is every other media outlet saying they've made a huge loss?

The loss was generated by re-valuation of MANU's deferred tax asset (DTA), something any company that pays tax in the US is going through now due to the change in the corporate tax rate from 36% to 21%. The DTA is basically an excess payment of of tax that will ultimately be returned, like a tax shield. It's worth more when tax rates are high and worth less when tax rates are low. When tax rates are suddenly lowered, the value of the DTA is remeasured, and companies have to write down its calculated value and take a non-cash charge to earnings. That's what happened to MANU -- the charge was large enough to wipe away the earnings and create a loss for the quarter. In income before the charge terms, profit before tax was down slightly vs. last year's quarter.

So it's a loss, but a one-time loss, and a non-cash, non-operating one, and all other companies with US ops are also taking the same revaluation, so it's no big deal.

All of this is boring and none of this changes the fact that they continue to be scum. In fact, the scum before tax margin was up 3,549,097% this quarter.

I seem to remember a slightly questionable decision very early int he game where Kompany may have been sent off on another day.......

When you get paid 600k a week it’s compulsory to say this every week till he leaves.

Apparently that Jose who works for El Chiringuito TV has said that Real are pushing v hard for De Gea. If he goes they’ll struggle to find anyone near his level.

I've been working on this for a while now. Bear with me now. The trick is - either don't put the ball down his throat - or - give the thief a chance to pull off a Hollywood save like we did as kids.

Di Maria, Falcao, Schwiensteiger, Memphis meat pie, Micky Terrapin, they all spouted that shite in the beginning, where are they all now?

 

[Vienna_70]

away at the barcodes this weekend......

Peg has a poor record there.

Isn’t it true that the eye-gouging twat has never won a League game at St James' Park?

Why would US corporation tax impact a company which isn’t based in the US?? Never worked in finance, so serious question.

 

[WEMBLEY76]

Isn’t it because although the holdings company is Cayman Islands based the Glazers themselves are actually US citizens and their other businesses pay taxes in their domiciled residence.
