United Thread - 2021/22

[Didsbury Dave]

Mancini or Conte will be good for them. Both probably have the sense to stay away from the ghost of the past.

I would absolutely love it if they hired Mancini. It would be Mourinho all over again - a good season with a league cup, then two seasons of arguing, backstabbing and going backwards before an acrimonious sacking leaving the next manager with a nightmare job.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

GMP needs your help.

Not the sharpest chisel in the box, no pun intended....

 

[Eds]

I can imagine his cv.

What managerial qualities do you have that would make you a good manager for Utd?

Well I scored a goal nearly a quarter of a century ago.

Smashing, you've got the job.

Spot on. Look at the top eight in the PL now and ask yourself who would have given him the job if they had a vacancy a few years ago or who would give him one now. I think even Norwich would baulk at offering him anything other than chief cone operator. Like many other supposed legends on that rancid place he thought management would be easy i.e. Charlton, Stiles, Ince, Neville x 2, Keane etc

Imagine his smug face of the derby win as he is being told by that man that he has to hire a coach from the incompetent bunch. There has to be an Amazon documentary.

In honour of the rags here’s a new lyrics version of 99 Red Balloons by Nena.Sing a long to the video


Rag and I do a little coy shop

Buying Sky TV with the money we got

See our friends and get a break from porn

Then one by one they all come.

It’s a race, hack into software

It’s not fair, City’s scouting out there

Gloating with our super buys

99 Rag buffoons watch Sky.



99 Rag Buffoons

Gloating with our Super buys

But Fecking hell it’s a Bert alert

“Were not really here” and Helens bells

City spend obscene come to life.

Eating up their balti pies

GPC better close your eyes

As 99 Rag buffoons watch Sky.



99 was a Treble Treat.

99 minutes to defeat.

Signed the hobbit in a hurry

Luke Shaw needs another curry

This is what they’ve waited for

You were shit Moyes when City got four

Riley’s bent, Fergies on the wine

99 Rag buffoons watch Sky.



99s Knight now despairs

Sees City’s high press Pep fighters

We have gone from nought to zero

Hoof and run,it doesn’t work

With orders to identify

Sign up the Portuguese Japs eye

Scramble in a summer buy

99 Rag Buffons watch sky

As 99 rag buffoons watch Sky.



The 99 dream I have had

But I am done a rag buffoon

It’s all over and I’m cursing City

No more Theatre of dreams for me

I don’t want any souvenir

I’ve thrown away all my Giggsy gear

And here was I a rag buffoon

Need a club anew, can’t wait to go.

You need to get out more ;-)

 

[jazzy]

Only one man for the job

 

[Protein Junkie]

You need to get out more ;-)

I was off work last week and the first line came into my head :-)
Other than that I agree

 

[Mancity1980]

Are they really this thick? Let's say they are about to sack the bus driver, bringing in the ghost of Fergie for "talks" just shows every single potential replacement they might have lined up what they will have to deal with themselves going there. They won't get the control top managers want, literally the only candidates that might be even slightly pleased to hear that are ex players of his. I'd be ecstatic if they go down that route again. Such a joke of a club.

I’ll be ecstatic if they go down again.

 

[N1985]

Mancini wouldn't even entertain a phone call off the Rags. Bobby loves us far too much for that shite. Plus, he'd have a choice of far bigger clubs than that pile of shit in Trafford

Even this clown has an opinion, where's
Khabib to choke the clown
