You missed off a zero

No way it’ll take that long.
10 more years with no success and they‘ll be playing in front of 40k max.
You’ve only got to read their forums for a few hours to see how entitled most of them are.
90% won’t have the stomach for the shit show that awaits them

I was referring to the length of ‘test’ - ie before the next PL/CL :-)

The one positive about the club is our amazing support. 5 years without a trophy, watching rubbish football for years yet Old Trafford is always full or practically full every home game. Would never happen in Spain or Italy

A whole 5 years! So hardcore lol.

Does anyone remember when they pulled under 20,000 in the very early years of Taggert for a league game? Was it Everton or Wimbledon they were playing?

Their history chums down the road all fucked off when Hodgson was in charge and they’ve managed to pull a gate below 15,000 for a European cup tie, fair weather supporters the lot of them.

Yep just tell these fans that say they are biggest bestest club in the world to look at there 26 years before they won the league under fergie!

It shows me they were an average mid table team and there whole history shows that.

At least they can always lord it over us that they’ve got more fans in Nigeria.

You couldn’t make it up could you.

Only another 30 to go...

They wouldn't be able to stand it, any of the fair-weather fuckers. They'd be suicidal if they went through half of what we suffered (the fabled 'York, away', a hairsbreadth from losing the play-offs to Gillingham). Those polystyrene fuckers haven't got the fight or the stamina to go the distance with their clubs, to stand shoulder to shoulder as you plummet through the league and suffer the humiliation of opposing fans and their piss-taking songs.

Nah, they only want the glory. They want to pick up a tabloid and see their plastic heroes on the back pages, they want to see the likes of Lineker and Co waxing lyrical about 'their team,' they want the kudos of marching into the playground or workplace the next morning secure in the knowledge that no one will give them stick about how crap their club is.

Opposition match-going fans I have no issue with, people who pay their money and genuinely support their club through thick and thin, fair play to them. No problems. But those plastic bandwagon-jumpers who like to give it the big 'I am,' I would like to have them do a human centipede with James Corden.
