Was with the boys Brigade there on a campsite in 1964 I think when we learnt JFK got assassinated in Dallas. Thought it was a cool place at the time coming from the slums of Hulme.

JFK was assassinated 22nd November 1963.

It was my Mum’s 23 birthday.

RFK was assassinated 5th June 1968; my Dad’s 31st birthday.

Last Season United were able to bank the profits from 11 home cup matches, which probably equated to £30m in attendance receipts, plus TV and Prize Money.

This season, the most they can have is 4 and that's assuming the luck of the draw (possible) and being good enough to win each game (highly debatable)

Let's see how that stacks up financially.

No mid week football at all now, guess they can work hard for the league FFS ;-)

You want to check him out on Sly Sports "The Back Pages" where he's often a guest. He might well be invited onto "The Sunday Supplement" now that it's a regular gig.

He tries way too hard to articulate his point. So much so, that he ends up rambling on about some obscure detail, which results in him forgetting the point he was trying to make in the first place. He's only young, probably late 20s early 30s.

I think he views himself as a bit of a frustrated genius. He offers his body of work like scattering pearls amongst the swine, and holds his audience in contempt for being a bunch of philistines.

He really is a legend in own mind.

That could quite easily be Barney Ronay as well
 
I bet they sack him and bring in Carrick.

Glasner wouldn't be the worst appointments. He is a very good coach.
 
BREAKING NEWS - Scruffy Jim has made Old Toilet redundant ! He said they can't afford to fix the roof and the rat catcher he hired says its a lost cause because whenever he clears the place out it just fills with vermin on every match day. However Scruffy Jim did say he has secured a lucrative "pay as you play " deal for one of the pitches in Birch and having all the matches filmed on an old Blackberry he found in a drawer and they will be uploaded to a channel behind a paywall to make up for the loss of Champions League money he predicts they will soon be sharing a league with yesterdays winner Grimsby Town.

In a post on BBC Football web page their respected (by himself ) Slimon Stone says " These are exciting times for my favourite club. The new "Scruffy Plan" as it has been dubbed could raise an estimated 0.01% of the lost revenue and under exciting new manager Brent di Cesare that aim of 4th tier football is a real possibility"

We contacted the You Tube channel United Stand but have yet to receive any response.
