United Thread - 2023/24

[Metal Biker]

Won't win the title this year, miles away from winning it next year, earliest chance would be 2026, last won it in 2013. That will make it 13 years without the title, and for the majority of that time, Manchester City have been scooping them up left, right and centre. If we hadn't, their ''Twenteh times" chant they do to Liverpool supporters would have been blasted into insignificance long before now.

They should be more grateful.

When did the method of a club’s owner earning his cash become relevant, outside of pub/terrace banter?

Is oil money worse than feeding school kids rat stew or a pools company taking money off the working class?

It’s just another layer of copium for fans of once successful clubs that are trying to come to terms with not being the top dogs anymore.

After their Bournemouth fiasco, the Times football pull-out ran the headline "Time for the Real UInited to Stand Up"
After the Bayern defeat, perhaps the press are beginning to realise that their performance against Bournemouth WAS the real Uniterd.
Crap, in other words...........

Love it!

“And yet to see the club is this state is awful for all of English football. Man Utd is a cornerstone of our game. It if can be hollowed out + stripped of meaning like this, then any club can.”

Awful? It’s a thing of absolute magisterial beauty.

Definitely something going on with this “Manchester United” malarkey. Why would Paul Scholes, a United fan from Salford, suddenly stop referring to them as “United” like he probably has done all his life?

People around the world are aware of were utd are based.
That’s another battle they’ve lost as much as they try and justify Manchester in their name.

They sound desperate now haha

To paraphrase Guy Mowbray " Now it's every time."

Open top bus parade for their sweeping of the monthly awards for November come May?.

After all, they love scraping the barrel over any tiny thing. For example, the FA Cup and League Cup was seen as a minor Cup by today's standards, in which fringe players take centre stage, but when the Raggies won them, the Rag Loving MSM those trophies suddenly became relevant again. Same with the Community / Charity Shield.... a glorified friendly until then and even Arsenal fans down the pub wanked themselves silly over it this year.

Clearly trying to replicate City’s approach by having the juniors play the same style as the seniors.

Just catching up, fair play this is very funny.

Is he turning into Schmeichel or is that Schmeichel turning into the piss can?
