The Manchester United Thread

Believe me those Yanks still need to be gone from the club if it wasn't for their debt repayments the loss would have been so much less. The Glazers brought the club as a cash cow and should have no place in the game unfortunately no one wants to take on that debt in the current climate and they aren't budging unless they get billions.

Although I was being the flip, the point remains the absolute hypocrisy from Utd fans who ultimatey get exactly what they deserve with the Glaziers.

Get laughably riled up by two faced shitbags like Neville out for their own ends over the ESL debacle. Sign a few big names. Make some superficial internal moves to the structure. And then everything's sound again with F all protesting.

Joke.com that has fast lost you any support you had in solidarity.

Blues Breakdown

@blues_breakdown
Tahith Chong is very good at football. That’s all.


@SA2bcfc
Tahith Chong is honestly amazing to watch #bcfc

Unbelievable first half from Blues so far. Bournemouth without even an attempt on goal. Chong is different gravy, cutting open their back line like a hot knife to butter. Who is this blues and how dare they be a joy to watch! #bcfc | #BIRBOU

Horrible to read.

One of my all time favourite footballers I never saw play. But I sure grew up on tales of just how great an adversary Best, Law and Charlton were in Busby’s great Utd side. Who would have been a Liverpool player if the board had given Shankly the finances to bring him with him from Huddersfield as he wanted back in ‘ 59.

Short personal story-

I shared a train journey with him back from Euston to Piccadilly 20 years or so ago. Midweek mid-morning train. Which was quiet. So I thought I’d have a mooch and see if I could get my head down in first class. And there's Dennis Law sat there which blew me away to start with. When I said hello and he was real responsive, that would have made my day alone. But for him to offer me a seat which turned into a riveting few hours of arl football stories from him …… Something I'll never forget. Top, TOP bloke and a proper gentleman I can’t speak highly enough about.

Couldn’t get him to talk about that glorious backheel that sent Utd down though haha.

The fact #MUFC have five years to pay for Jadon Sancho + four to pay for Raphael Varane suggests the initial outlay this summer totals ~£23.5m. Still, after losing £150m due to pandemic, United are being cautious over more signings. a CM is priority @TheAthleticUK

Laurie Whitwell ……

Is that the patronising divvy that didn’t have a clue what Klopp was saying on finances last Friday and mad an *** of herself with the condescending response?

The Athletic have started down the clickbait road lately too I’ve noticed which is a shame as they were different and in-depth.

What do you mean? "There won't be a second chance for them"?

What will people do?
Military style coup? Public hanging? Hostile financial takeover?

They will wave a few banners, shout at cameras for YouTube hits and go home for their dinner like good consumers.

They will still own the club and take their cut.

I loved the irony that they illegally broke into the ground to riot ..... uhmmmm, 'protest', back in May.

Yet when they could return in force freely last Sat'day and do that legitimately ..... Nothing.

Or maybe it was 'red' day in Manchester as to why there wasn't any green and gold? 🤷‍♂️

Match ends with a 5-0 win for United. Hanson got our fourth with an assist from Galton. Galton scored the fifth following a neat pass from Fuso.

Second chance for fixing relationship with the fans.
 
Looks like a fair few outgoings in the next weeks. Periera, Garner, Hoogwerf, Mengi, Williams Possibly Lingard, Jones, Matic, Dalot according to Mitten and Whitwall
