The Damned United remains the best Football related drama I have ever seen

Better than "Escape To Victory" with Buzzer in it?

Escape to Victory still gives me goosebumps aged 50.

I watched it well over 100 times (mostly as a kid)

Can’t be beaten!

I can remember when we were not a very good football team
I'd look for any odd fact such as two away clean sheets in a row from our defence,or David White is the fastest player in the league..Anything to distract away from the reality we were crap.
This is how utd fans are viewing things now.
jog on sad rags.

I used to quote our massive floodlights

Me too, it made me an angry little fucker. A bad weekend and I'd be out looking for any of the plastic fans that I could find just to provoke them. I wanted to kick the living daylights out of the smarmy-wankers, such was my psychotic reaction to a rag victory and a City defeat.
Some of them would try to appease me ("calm down, mate. It's only a game,") but I was having none of it. I wanted to steam into the sad little mummy's boys with their raggy card collections, replica shirts and 10 X 4 glossy pictures of George Best everywhere. Small wonder the plastics at school gave me a wide berth.

A psychologist would tell you I was probably from a dysfunctional family, there was a long and deeply established root of violence in the family, or that I was a 'troubled individual.'


It was none of these things - I just fucking hate the rags.

I always use to say at least we are the true Manchester club and not using another Citys name
