United Thread - 2023/24

Who did the rags get?

The Belgian team, Knokke Tout.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Why have they mentioned Liverpool & United not being in it? Spurs aren’t, Arsenal aren’t, Newcastle aren’t, Villa aren’t etc yet I don’t see any of them them get a mention

Wonder why that is?

Yeh can't say I've come across too many articles informing us that Scunthorpe, Hartlepool and Plymouth haven been included either...............

Maybe they still have a chance to qualify, along with Stockport & Bradford? ;)

 

[GH64]

No they won’t. Only 2 from each country can qualify mate

Unless there are 3 UK winners from the last 4 Champions Leagues.......which happens if Arsenal win it.

The BBC website has 'Leicester are at Rooney's Birmingham' tonight.

Insufferable.

I work with a big Birmingham fan who's a season ticket holder. The general consensus amongst their fan base is that they won't be referred to as 'Rooney's Birmingham' for much longer!!

Great insight from the MUFBBC

As well a United defended, if any other teams defender handballs it like Fatboy Shaw, especially us, it’s a penalty for the bottle chucking skip rats

Ratty was very quick to play it down and Sky to hush it up and move on.

 

[Zabbasbeard]

Just seen the highlights it looked a clear penalty to me

I suppose they can't upset any of thr redshirts

How the MIGHTY have FALLEN. This should serve as a CAUTIONARY TALE not to rest on our laurels. As the CITYZENS we need to attack, attack and attack. We should not rest, we should kill, kill and kill. We should not care about PAST GLORY. We need to move from GLORY to GLORY. STRENGTH to even more STRENGTH.

Last time I heard a speech like that it was from 1939 and delivered by a one balled man with a silly moustache.

Hopefully not. So glad he's no longer at Derby who our lad supports. It no longer feels dirty going there.

Thanks for the info mate, I’d only read about the only 2 teams per country rule, then stopped reading, so didn’t realise there was as a caveat about English teams

Thought the same at the time, saying it was too close and can never be given. Quickly followed by VAR moving on. It’s as if they tell them what to do.

You mean they don't?

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Depends on which way you lean, whether you want to believe that everything is above board or whether you understand what your eyes see and make an informed opinion.

But I’m just a cynical fucker, too many years of witnessing this shit.

 

[TinFoilHat]

You mean they don't?

It's something that confused me.

Darren Fletcher said he only gets to hear VAR Check and Check complete with the reason for whatever is being checked.

Yet during the West Ham match they showed a camera looking at the officials studying the footage. You could see them talking but couldn't hear it.

Maybe Sky get more access than TNT?

Not a pen for me.
