Greggs in Shaw was shut yesterday. Is it any coincidence that Shaw ran out of energy tonight?

I think not!

Nothing a puncture kit and hand pump couldn't sort out

Think it was the last time rag fans were happy.

And the last time Tyler held his bladder

And the last time Tyler held his bladder

Think you need to listen to the commentary again!

He didn’t need the loo last season when we won at Anfield…

Just read that "The World's Greatest Club"™ is actually 3rd in the form table since wreck it took over, albeit they've played a game more than Spurs and two more than Arsenal. I find that staggering. But I'd imagine it's easy enough to confirm, for someone less inherently lazy than me.

The big Sky Sports Manchester United Post-non-win Inquest is on again… (yawn!)

Nobody, but nobody, ever brings up the fact that English football does not have a Celtic/Rangers situation where there are clubs who have always been at the top. Where the fuck does this notion that United “should be” challenging come from? Everyone in the media is always trying to work out why United aren’t up at the top anymore but they all fail to grasp the facts of English football history.

English football is ever changing, there are loads of big clubs and loads of well run clubs, the best run clubs in the country are always up at the top but it’s never the same clubs. Never has been, never will be. It’s always changing.

In their 120 year history, United have challenged for the title 32 times (winning 20). It’s the most in the country (on both counts) but it’s actually not that many, the share of challenges and titles in English football is nicely spread quite widely. No clubs are completely dominant, and that’s what makes this the best league. For the other 88 years of their history they’ve not challenged for the title and, actually, their all-time average finishing position is 9th!

Them finishing 6th/7th this season is above their all-time average. In terms of how English football is, they should be well happy with that. They need to realise that nothing lasts forever, but they’re too insecure to think like that. Why are they so insecure?

There’s no big inquest to be had. Especially not every fucking week! It’s simply that United’s time has been+gone, there are other clubs who are having their time and are going to finish above them.

Correct I’ve mentioned this about there history!

Look at them before fergie took over an average team trophy haul was shite!

Sly Sports Football finished the United v Leicester match off by showing, go on have a guess..........

The Rooney overhead shin from 2011.

11 years ago and the Sly Sports c*nts are still showing it.

Piss funny.

22 points.

And only one more victory will confirm Manchester City will, for the ninth consecutive season, finish above the whining bunch of wankers from Trafford.

Not in my lifetime!

Arf!!

Boring as fuck these united inquests after every game, I agree with whoever it was above who said that
Didn’t even watch then tonight
No interest in the battle to finish 6th

 

[Blueboy73]

We should name the day, in the same manner as Arsenal’s St. Totteringham’s Day.

I propose St. Bert’s Day.

St Beneath Us Day

Does my bonce in. The usual “BUT THIS IS MANCHESTER UNITED WE’RE TALKING ABOUT” drivel gets wheeled out every match.

What the fuck does that even mean?
