We’re only 8 points off a 34 point gap ticker banner. ;-)

Think we might have to wait till next season for that.

I know the press love to overhype United but I've not seen one balanced article regarding the Ten Hag appointment.

The facts are he's coming from an inferior league where he manages the biggest club.
The player development and scouting is generally excellent and he works in an environment with relatively low pressure.

Flip that to United, at best they're fighting for 4-6th and that is unlikely to change short-term.
Recruitment and development is farcical and the pressure, especially financial to qualify for the CL will be huge.
If they miss out for another season it could set them back years.

Add to the mix that recent Dutch management exports to the PL have been ropey then I'm not sure what all the giddiness is about?

Isn’t there a new rule come in where they’ll get champs league no matter where they finish? Historic merit or some other bollocks

Ajax hadn’t won the league in 5 years when ten Hag took over and no Dutch side had been to a European in nearly 20 years when he took his Ajax to the Europa in 2017 and then the CL semi final was the first for a dtch side in 23 years when he got them there.

So he might have managed the biggest club in Holland but he didn’t take over the best club by any stretch and he took them on to do things no one has managed in 20 years against much better and richer European sides. I think we can pretty safely say he is a very good manager.

I’m just not sure that really matters at United.

So essentially done in Europe what Emery is doing with Villareal?

The smirk on his face says it all. Slimey little ****. I'm not sure Ragnick is a mug. I bet he's clocked all this nonsense. I bet part of his remit in the 6 months was to find out how much shit was actually going on.

I think that little ginger wankers Scholes, Camel Gob and Shit Tash will get a lot less access to the dressing room next season.

My team are about to get skullfucked by Liverpool and are 17th. I'm not feeling much sympathy tbh.

Where are all the social media overreaction videos following their earlier defeat?

Have you fuckers let me down and not posted them or have they finally all been broken and have given up on football?

This geezer makes Basil Fawlty look calm:

To all the cocks at school who took the piss when the rags were starting to dominate.
To all the cocks at work who took the piss when we were struggling.
To all the full kit wankers.
I say
SUCK IT UP YOU SCUMMY BASTARDS!!
