United Thread - 2021/22

[Aba452]

A ‘proper’ football club that was formed two decades after our first iteration.

Club of choice for certain Austrian house painters?

I like to think that all the players and Managers they have been through in the last 8/9 years, are now out there telling their stories to potential players thinking of coming to Salford if they are unlucky enough to be approached.

The stories of biggest club in the world, winning stuff, world class facilities etc must be wearing thin, now. We know money is the biggest draw now, but there must be a time coming soon where even that will fade as they weigh it up against a career graveyard and working in what must be a miserable enviroment. As for kids, they would be only attracted to sons of utd supporters.

Mate of a mate who does some work with United (used to work with Sergio too) so take with a pinch of salt but apparently the players are absolutely not having Ralf or his methods. I’ve been told it’s kicking off internally about the tactics and formations and there are huge splits in the camp.

Nothing we don’t already know/suspect admittedly, just passing on what I was told.

 

[Bluemoon115]

I hope not. He's apparently ruffled a few feathers already in the relatively short time he's been there, think of the carnage he would cause if he's given a year or so, the mouth waters.

The thing is I think this would work well for them in the long-term, as he'd root out the bad apples.

So it would be piss funny if they go through the short term pain, then bail out before getting any gain.

Why Salford ?

I'm thinking Gareth Bale is the very man to breathe some fresh young life into Ralf's revolution. Come on Woody, do it.

I think we have to make a bid first don't we ?
How about 50 Mill plus 300k a week for 2 years.

If you add the 8 and the 9 together, you will have the same number as the Bayern directors have criminal prosecutions

The rags are playing on a Thursday again I see...

It's what you wrap your presents up with isn't it?

Ha ha, reminds me.
Am I the only 1 who watched Blue Peter in the 70's and didn't realise "sticky back plastic" was Sellotape.

You got all the bits together to make whatever but couldn't find any "sticky back plastic" :-)

Bloody BBC!
