United Thread - 2023/24

[havefaith]

I,m speechless yet not surprised the scum have released such a statement

 

[Silva61]

Still won’t win the league even with all the help they get from refs and var, that’s another season they ain’t winning it.

Double figures now.

 

[yeah whatever !!]

I know of



I know of no City fan who has a good word for the Govan piss can.

Is not' bacon face' a term of endearment ?

;)

 

[yeah whatever !!]

It'll be a disgrace if they bring him back. What message is that sending to their fans and players.

It's already a disgrace that they're even thinking about it.

Everything about them is a disgrace.

What message does this send out to young guys?? It is the same as that guy in Romania(?).

 

[Oddchild]

I am genuinely shocked that Greenwood is being brought back in. If he was a shit academy nobody he wouldn’t be allowed near the club. In fact they would have used it as a huge PR win to publicly wash their hands of him.

Absolutely disgusting. They will regret this decision I have no doubt.

 

[SebastianBlue]

I would say someone should hack the big screen at Old Trafford to play the video evidence of Greenwood’s crimes if he ever sets foot on the pitch, but…

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

If City did this, it would put a serious downer on how I felt about everybody included: from Pep to Txiki to Khaldoon. I'm not sure I'd want them at the club anymore

It's almost enough to feel sympathy for united fans

Don't be so stupid, nobody asked the pathetic cunts to follow the rag shite.

 

[Silva61]

I boycott anything red in our house anyway with the exception of tomato sauce

And newspapers.

 

[gill_undrhill]

I don't get that? Can you explain please?

I will try.

Originally it was planned (if red cafe is to be trusted) that the decision on MG would be announced by the end of last week, at the very latest Monday - the day of Man United's first game of the 23/24 season.

However, it was delayed and one explanation was that the club wanted to include the opinions of their women's team (three of whom are in Australia with England). Now in 2023 they obviously have the ability to communicate with Australia (zoom/wattsapp video or similar) so I was more inclined to believe rumour number 2: which is this - Man United didn't want to announce the decision (to re-integrate the player into the squad) because they feared at press conferences involving Mary Earps, Ella Toone or Katie Zelem the subject would be brought up.

Even if England spotted the potential issue and kept those players away from the press, imagine if the announcement had been made on the day of the Wolves match and this mornings England game had gone differently, press people may have asked if the subject had impacted on their mindset or on team cohesion and had there been arguments about it in the England camp?

If this sounds too much like a weird conspiracy theory let me add this: I bet we we will hear nothing about MG from MUFC in the next few days either, as England are now into Sundays final. It is all a PR balancing act of the most precarious kind and I bet United have paid top money to people who specialise in sorting out issues like this, in the hope they can smooth it all out and not lose a 150-200 million pound asset to a loan deal and/or cheap sale.

For what its worth, I hope United's plan fails and he never plays for them again, but if I was a betting person my money would be on a teary TV interview and him back into the side early next year - possibly sooner if Rasmus Hojlund struggles to adapt to the premier league.
