United thread 2018/19

[KS55]

I only recently discovered that the founder of Adidas and the founder of PUMA are brothers.

Apparently, they fell out over Adidas and one of them started up PUMA.

Learn something every day!! :)

Umbro was started by the UM brothers, who later fell out.. It was originally called Umbros, but the "s" was removed after the fall out.

60 million Euro’s for Cavani? Has time stopped in the year is 2012?

Woodenhead is the ghost of Swales, come back to haunt them.

Calciomercato link Cavani as a target for Man Utd and Chelsea, but it looks like the Red Devils are doing their bit to get there first.


Don Balon claim MUFC have made PSG an offer of €60million for the 32-year-old, as well as holding talks with the player over a big-money contract.

Fingers crossed. What could go wrong.

Decent player but how much???

Got to love eddy woody.

Just scanned Red Issue and there's a thread called 'Who would buy our players'. It makes you realise that their players are, in the main, basically lower-level premier league or even Championship players at best. We have overtaken them at breakneck speed and it could be years before they are anywhere near us again. Lol.

So, you’re saying that the tick has finally tocked?

I think you could be right.

The were actually the Humphrey Brothers iirc - just like Asda was previously Associated Dairies!

Previous career or rhyming slang?


Or both?!

I made it up as a joke, but I was closer than I realized!
