United thread 2020/21

[jrb]

Has anyone seen a specific article in today’s press about Martial diving again? And United’s continued diving and cheating that has been apparent all season? No, neither have I!

 

[Metalartin]

How must Klopp and Liverpool fans feel about their team losing to this Southampton team? Silver linings.

 

[Mid Wales blue]

Imagine getting so carried away about beating a team who had ten min for 85 mins, then 9 men for another 9 mins.

United fans lack any sense of perspective.

88mins
+rag time.

Mentioned this in another thread yesterday, but I'll ask the question again;

Why the f*ck was the Piscan at that game last night during a NATIONAL LOCKDOWN?

Even if he's on the payroll, he certainly isn't essential to the running of the club on a day to day basis. And it's not like the c*nt couldn't have watched the game on TV.

That's kind of the point though isn't it? He was just pointing out the difference in reporting, they made it seem like City did something wrong or it wasn't classy. Southampton were down to 10 men in the second minute before any goals were scored and then down to 9 men at 7-0. Wasn't 7-0 enough at that point? The goal difference will affect Southampton too, so the "moral" argument doesn't hold any weight for me. In fact, this will damage Southampton more, who have lost 4 on the bounce, so shouldn't it been seen as more "immoral"?

In a cup game it doesn't matter how much you get beat by, all our result meant was the next tie was in the bag which meant we could rest as many as we wanted for the next leg. This on the other hand could utterly destroy Southampton's confidence, other PL clubs(Burton just went back to playing league football) would sense that and before they know they could be in a relegation battle with a crap goal difference.

I can see why he brought it up, the press do my head in too, lets stop giving them free passes because we've come to accept their biased shite.

With the gift of hindsight, do we think that a particular Spurs side regret not obtaining a 4th / 5th / 6th etc against a certain Manchester City side that had an un-tested goalkeeper between the sticks, injured key goalscorer subbed, were on a shocking run of formm and token gesture gobsh1te Scouser (thank you again Sir Joseph) sent off at half time?

I don't think i've ever seen another game where the players completely give up as soon as the first player is sent off.
Shameful stuff from the cowards in the Southampton side

I've seen Everton sides who've bottled games in a less embarrassing manner, and that is quite an achievement.

Could say the same about Mike Summerbee....

In a similar vein, I swear I heard on Radio 4 last week a comedy show which began with:

'And first, the answer to last week's competition - Fill in the missing words of the song title 'I Can't Help Falling.. (blank) (blank) (blank) (blank)'.. Of course the correct answer is 'In Love With You'.. but we had an interesting response from a Monsieur Martial from Manchester who wrote in suggesting that the title was already complete..'
