United Thread - 2022/23

[Grassland Blue]

You could , from what I’ve read, easily add in all the other youth age groups as well.
About the only group that united seem to be outperforming City with, this year, is women’s football.

A bunch of big girls' blouses then....

Ollie Watkins has one less goal than player of the year elect Marcus Rashford in the Premier League this season. Ivan Toney has more than him too, the media would have you believe he is on some Haaland type goal scoring rampage. When you look at it, his goals stats are padded out in 2nd rate European competitions and the league cup.

Surely Forest are going to rip into these lot today? If ever a team fighting against relegation would want to play at home to an injury-ravaged team of prima donnas, this is it.

It would be lovely, but unfortunately Forest are utter shite.

Yeah but they'll have 12 men with Magliar playing.

They have McKenna, the Scottish slabhead. No way Notts Forest get anything today.

Fuck off you red scum bags

Advice that's as relevant today as it's always been.

You think Forest have a chance? You wait until you see the controversies that pigmol will perform in order to ensure CL football next season. People think Spurs were gifted by the officials last week, in the words of Bachman-Turner Overdrive, 'You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet.'

As @BobbyJohnstone has pointed out above, the rags will have McKenna in return as well as the ref, both linesmen, the 4th official, the VAR and the assistant VAR so that's 17 v 11 plus the rags are spawny cunts and Forest are shite.

The 'nited way on sly at the moment so hastily changed to some romantic slush on Great movies, in a vain bid for credibility on Blue Moon!

Just thinking of the swamp dwellers and the Grievers, if you had deep pockets, how would the red arse cheeks represent good value for money? They are probably still just about the biggest fan bases, but how could you grow?

Idly looking at the table, if you're a billionaire then Shirley these clubs could be worth a flutter:

Villa - know they've got Chinese owners so won't be as cheap, but do have a large fan base.

Wolves - won't be cheap for same reasons but decent fan base and excellent Portuguese football connections.

West Ham - strongly remind me of City for good and bad reasons, great history, excellent location and fans.

Dirty dirty Leeds - proper heathen country but a one team town, can play great football and wouldn't be too pricey. Have to knock down Elland Road first, whether a new stadium ready or not!

Everton - literally the basket case's basket case of how not to run a club. But a move to a fantastic new stadium on the horizon, huge potential, rivalry with 'dem, what's not to like?

I also think you could make a case for any of the bottom three too, as they wouldn't be silly money and can point to fan base and history.

Anyway, upshot is red shirts you're just paying for the name, for the others you could genuinely build a "project" and I'm all for other fans being able to experience the joy and elation that we've had.
