United thread 2019/20

I see the young lad from Swansea they bought was booked again for simulation or diving or cheating

That’s 2 times in 3 games

Some call it the united way - to me it’s just cheating

The lad is a quick learner, he has only been at the Ashley Young Dive School for a few months. Just needs to work on the swallow dive next before graduating to the high board.

Shitting himself.

Gives away not being a proper Manc with his pronunciation of Ordsall as well the ****.

He couldn't name more than 3 towns, haha! I believe he was using the Bradford pronunciation of Ordsall.

Most of this is a load of horseshite (80m would be about 10x any other stadium sponsorship in football) but it sounds like Neville is worried about who the next generation is going to support.

He's only mithered about the twats using his hotel.

This really is a pretty remarkable sequence of results, considering their vast resources. The Solskjær era is going even better than expected.

Don't know about the record but the rags were awarded 12 penalties in the PL last season, more than any other team. City were awarded 4 with only 5 teams awarded fewer.

I think with their bold attacki g play, and sheer number of shots on goal, it is hardly surprising that they accumulate so many penalties.

I heard Shaw's Co2 emissions are the largest contribution to climate change.

Somebody was talking to him about music lessons at school and asked him what was his favourite instrument sound. He answered 'The dinner bell '.

A propos of United's "history"...

I was looking at some of United's attendances in the 1930s. I find them interesting:

1930-31 Highest= 39,876 (v City), Lowest = 3,969, Average = 12,155
1931-32 Highest = 37,012, Lowest = 3,507, Average = 12,915
1933-34 Highest = 29,443, Lowest = 11,176, Average = 18,563

Even on May 6 1939, in Div One, their home game with Liverpool drew a massive 12,073.....

Just remind rag fans of some of these facts when the go on about their "history". Their very existence was uncertain in those days, and they could have gone the way of Bury and Bolton. If only they had!

If you think that's extraordinary - Spurs, the 3rd best team in the country by most people's reckoning, have only won 2 of their last 14 premier league games, losing 8 and picking up just 10 points.

Hopefully that'll provide some cover for Ole, we don't want him falling under too much scrutiny just yet or he won't make it to November and they might accidentally appoint someone competent before the season is ruined.

They'll throw some kind of smokescreen to divert attention from what's happening on the pitch: another bomb scare, maybe? More racial abuse stories? Something, anything to keep everyone's minds away from what a joke of a club they've become.
