Are they expecting large numbers to stay behind after the forest game for the sit in protest,only reason I ask,as I’ve heard they are keeping their shop open for them when the protest finishes..

The powers that be at the swamp might not know how to run a football club, but they aren’t stupid.

Not wrong, was he?

He is Ten Bob is a fraud

 

[Roachy]

Was this a clear and obvious error that we should have picked up on?

Possibly, I must try harder when slating the red tosspots, lol.

One of the rags' biggest mistakes, post pisscan, was not giving the Tactical Turtle more time.

Didn't he just buy Dutch players and play sideways football until everyone fell asleep, and then celebrated having more possession, despite finishing 6th. Twenty years too late was Van Gaal.

Disagree, he’s the only united manager who I actually thought wasn’t a complete ****. Decent bloke who never went full delusional rag. And he called the arselicking press out on many occasions.

Too right mate, I'm totally taking that one on the chin, lol.

Nah, I'm wih you, Blue. I don't know which would be funnier:
Watching the drawn out agony of them circling the drain from Christmas before eventually being demoted on the final day (Harry Kari Maguire own goal).
or
The explosion of boiled piss when they wake up one morning to find they've gone under and reading reports from the receivers about just how much the Glazers have taken out of the club - and then getting demoted to the lower leagues.

If you could only have one, which would it be? I know the obvious one is "go bust". I'd actually like to see them go down. Even though it'd be only for one season, it'd be terrible humiliation for them. Plus, I'd miss the derbies if they did go tits up, even though I hate derby days.

REPEATED RELEGATION … NOT going bust, would be years of taking the piss out of them …. DELIGHTFUL

Ideally, their derby would be FC Ushited of Moston. Or Stockport County. With them pretending their real rivals were AFC Liverpool.

Only just realised they have sold Fred.
Purchased for nearly £50M..sold for £15M a few years later after one league cup winners medal.
Another example of money down the drain at the swamp.

Does a swamp have a drain?
