United Thread - 2021/22

[its-grim-up-north]

Haven't they had big wins on the opening days for the last couple of seasons?
And it led them to what exactly?
The press are aching for these red mardarses to win the league, this wankfest is going to last all season I'm afraid.
Fucking sickening already and its only been one game. I don't get it, I just don't see the attraction with the fickle cunts.

Man Utd 1-3 Crystal Palace

I think we all know they will be given the Prem this year. They are long overdue and the rag-loving media have waited long enough for something to celebrate, so as far as I’m concerned, this season the rest of us are only here to make up the numbers: to participate in the charade that it’s all become.

The dippers were given it a little while ago, now it’s the turn of those other detestable cùnts that play In red.

As I said to a rag, who has texted me the PL Table every day this week:

08/18/2021
1) you are still joint top with Brentford et al,
2) a 3 point lead vs. a side as physically, tactically and supported by 630million rabid fans is virtually insurmountable,
3) jadon has had another day of training with your star-laden squad so he will know his role in the"Ole" project.
4) you still have Phil Jones
WE ARE ALL DOOMED

I find that extremely sad.

What sort of life must he have?

Liverpool weren’t given one, we was shite. I feel they was aided when they ran us close but we imploded the next year. Even if you think they want united to win, it’s still in our own hands and if we don’t we only have ourselves to blame. We have a better manager and team.

He's a rag, that pretty much explains it all. :-)

Piece about Knighton’s takeover attempt in 89 on bbc https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58233755

Interesting take:
The bid of £10m for the entire club, is the same as their new players spend that year.

so, a club worth X, spent the same X on new players + wages and all other expenses. Negative organic growth!

Also from the article:
Whilst also making an average annual loss of over £1m, and having some crowds 18000-20000.

people in glass houses, comes to mind.

Richard Keys suggests otherwise after the Spurs result...who to believe?!?

I'd forgotten old Silverback still existed.

Slimey didn't mention the stock market flotation (outside investment) that provided the funds to rebuild the Stretford End and embark on an unprecedented level of spending for new players never seen before.
Maybe Slimey thinks this is the "organic" growth that thick Rags and their media shills cant stop banging on about?

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

£400k a week for Pogba to sign a new contract, some good crack cocaine must be floating round Gorse Hill.

 

[Gazza]

Feck em .

When you think about it, United have had two decent managers in the last 70 years (you could argue in their entire history) - Matt Busby & Alex Ferguson, the others won next to nowt between them.

Trafford Ministry of Truth.

Rags have never had outside investment in their entire history.
Rags have never paid over £100 per week for any player.
Rags have never ever had a contentious refereeing decision going in their favour.
Rag players never commit fouls on opposing players, nor do they ever 'dive' in the opponents penalty area.
No player has ever turned down a chance to play for the rags - never.

And if anybody doubts the authenticity of these statements, just ask Sky or BT and they will confirm all of the above.

the official attendance was 47,245 - about 10,000 higher than the previous season's average ?
before 1992 so can not be right ? because utd the are biggest club in the world only averaging 37.000
where are the missing 40.000

Only three managers have taken the league title to Trafford, and two of them - Earnest Magnall and Matt Busby - have a connection to the only team in Manchester.

Same way they have statues to two former City players

spot on
they are not a self funding club that they like to think they are or was
before 1992 they was nothing like a so called big club ? if they was that big a club why was manchester city last winners of the title before the premier league was formed ?

i was talking to a mate the other week and said from the 1970s manchester city was and should have been the biggest manchester club now. but for swales and malcolm allison ego and the infighting city was only heading one way

Up until Busby went to United, City were the senior club of Manchester. By a mile.

He built them up to our level and beyond through the 1950s and 60s. Then we overtook them again in the 70s.

Obviously we had a terrible three decades in the 80s 90s and 00s, while United became the much bigger club. It was ridiculous what Swales and Allison did to City in the late 70s.

But now we’re back up at their level and beyond.
