Another urban myth I'm afraid.

The media outlets have lost all perspective when it comes to the rags. The reality is they (the media) will do just fine financially without having to resort to blowing smoke up the rags arse.

They've been at it for so long they don't even question it anymore. They just assume that their profits are interlinked and entwined with the rags.

We've seen similar superstitious thinking with the FA and the premier league. They too are convinced that a "strong" rags team is essential for a successful product.

The reality is most people couldn't give a flying fuck about the rags succeeding, they've had their time in the sun.

Personally I think the rags and Arsenal fighting it out between them for a top ten finish would be far more news worthy than this artificial bullshit we get drip fed by the media about how wonderful they are.

Same as the awful security leading to their postponement of a game, swept under the rather large carpet and will get as much coverage as Wan Bissoka or what ever his name is getting the driving whilst banned coverage but if any media has the backbone to run a negative story ( yeah right) they will wheel out Rashford for PR

The FA could be setting a dangerous precedent here. If United go unpunished, it gives fans of other clubs carte blanche to get their games postponed our abandoned by using similar tactics. It could cause fixture mayhem at the end of a season.

Failsworth this morning there were quite a few men aged 30+ wearing Ronald shirts. Mrs O remarked "its years since I seen so many grown men wearing united shirts". I replied "they'll all be back in the bottom of the wardrobe by Christmas, when the giddy cunts realise they're still shit".

Failsworth the bastion of fashion statements rag twats. I hope that wasn't in the Willow or Cotton ffs.

Apart from the urban myth I totally agree.

Have they been charged yet for failing to fulfill a league fixture yet. PL own rules state the following:

Except in the case of a League Match which, without either of the participating Clubs being at fault, is postponed or abandoned under the provisions of Rule L.12, any Club which causes the postponement or abandonment of a League Match on the date fixed under Rule L.1 or to which it is rearranged under Rules L.1.2, L.6 or L.7 will be in breach of these Rules.

As the rags were at fault why have no charges been brought yet?

Didn’t Oldham have some trouble at the weekend? I’ll be very interested to see if they get punished now after the rags have clearly been let off

But we know any other club will get punished.
