BT Sport if anyone fancies curing their insomnia shortly?

Anyone else remember (I think?) the last time United played Partizan in 1967? Partizan beat United 2-1 on aggregate in the semi-final of the European Cup.

I can recall the song to the tune of the Beachboys’ Barbara Anne was Par Par Par Par Partizan being sung on a train coming back from a City away match. Maybe from Leicester?

Btsport cameramen are always pissed up when they do the Thursday night cup at the swamp.
Never seem to do close ups of the stands or seem to cut the empty seat sections out of focus.

BT have just turned up the mics. Quiet as anything in the 1st 6 mins with only noise from away fans but now sounds like they have turned them up

BBC commentary :


Man Utd 0-0 Partizan Belgrade

But the game has not really captured the imagination of the United supporters.

Banks and banks of empty seats at M16

Not watching their game, just checked the BBC commentary text and they've posted this


Harry Maguire plays a sloppy pass and in trying to redeem the situation, dives in and the ball ricochets off Umar Sadiq on the edge of the box and loops over Sergio Romero.

Thankfully for United's skipper for the night, Sadiq is flagged offside in the build up.

Anyone watching able to explain how the player was given offside from slabhead's pass?
