Ole would construe this thread as a challenge.

We don’t know what rock bottom is under this regime. Suppose he has the whole season, which I think he does, then we’ve a lot more depths to explore.
Look at the apathy around this place...it's gone from discussions and debates to mostly jokes and jeering.
I'd say that's the biggest indicator.
It's time.
Before we move onto the next phase in this process ...doing a Leeds.

There’s plenty more tunneling to come if Ole and his wheel remain at the club
I always think it’s ironic that ‘Ole’s at the Wheel’ is sung to the tune of ‘Give it Up’
After the Liverpool loss, I didn't think it was possible to sink lower. We did today. That first half was something else.
Friend, it is not there yet.
The whole world will soon witness what a fraud this noob will be.
He will relish and savour that moment for years to come.

We're awful, but I am convinced and full believe that we can play worse.
Carragher has always been a pretty decent well rounded commentator. I've never felt an intense bias in the way I do with Souness.
Souness is the most anti United person I've ever seen and yet today the defender inside him has over taken that anti United bias because he is so appalled at how bad we are.
Keane on the other hand is resigned. Can barely be arsed today.
Hitting rock bottom is never a laughing matter. A mediocre (15-16 or 19-20) season is one thing, but hitting rock bottom is a nadir, and often, a nadir is fatal. We have signed Varane, Sancho, and CR yet this is the worst season since 2013-14 and just as bad as autumn 2018. The club is sick and the illness can be fatal (meaning becoming Arsenal or 90-04 Liverpool, aka trophyless), with City and Chelsea (and Newcastle?) dominating the following decades.
Ole being immediately sacked is the mandatory first step.

And since then we had spent 150 millions more. Nice to see you still believe.

If Ole is still here in two weeks time, rock bottom is yet to come.
The only way isn’t up, we can drop down another 12 places yet.
Inappropriate Behavior
Are you feeling a-bit embarrassment that you're still a wummy Ole in fanatic? Just curious.
No, I'm over here posting a relevant contribution to the discussion and not talking about the manager, and you've decided that Im saying something I'm not and insulting me.
Or horizontally.
Good post and agreed. If Ole had a plan there’s certainly very little evidence Itd in place now!
And that is not even hyperbole. I cannot, for 25 odd years as a supporter, remember a worse match, given the situation we are in (including being just two weeks from that Liverpool game) and the players we have. Liverpool was horrible, but this was a proper abomination of a performance. Not a single touch in their box for the entirety of the second half. While we were 2-0 down City just strolled around, playing around our players like they were cones. No sign of urgency. No quality. No chances. People mentioning stuff like the 1-6 against City as worse don't even remotely remember the dynamics of that game. Even against Liverpool Bruno's big chance coud have been a tipping point of sorts. Today it was over before it started. Baffling team selection too against a team without a proper striker, and leaving Rashford out for so long as well. But I guess it wouldn't have mattered. I never bought into the idea that Ole has lost the players, but it sure looked like it today.
Rock bottom will be a few weeks from now when we go out of the CL in the group stage, again.
Oh and to ADD to my above, it's turned out he played Rashford WHILE he has the flu / some sort of virus. It's just like - please lads, save my job! I don't care about your health, but we have to win these games of football. It has to be over now, surely.
We haven't hit rock.bottom.
The movie Armageddon is absolutely ripe for memery in this thread.
This is not rock bottom.
Rock bottom is not even managing to get to the next stages in the CL and ending up in the relegation zone.
If anyone can do it, Ole can though

What? Taking bets from idiots that want to bet on United winning the league on betfair? You'd definitely make some money off that.
At around this point last year (Dec 2 draw) my son won £50,000 on Premium Bonds and gave me £3,000. I cant wait for history to repeat itself
You know you’ve hit rock bottom with shit threads like this.
Rock bottom is still to come if we continue under this manager. We are more like on the road to rock bottom just now.
We may have hit rock bottom but I have faith that it won't stop us trying to sink further
Yep.
Ole will still be in charge until the end of the season and the club will fall further down the PL table. This is only the start. Other teams must be licking their lips at the prospect of playing this United team that is all over the place. Easy points for anyone IMO.
Conte is now not an option to rescue this season which is now already a write off. The Conte ship has sailed. Who the hell is going to come in and do a job?
I don’t think the board are even entertaining the idea of who is to be Ole’s successor. More just persevere and trust the process.
Rock bottom will be watching Ronaldo play in the Europa Conference League next season, with Brendan Rodgers as our manager.
If we do hit rock bottom, just change Ole's name to fecking Gloria Gaynor.
Rock bottom yet? Nope could get so much worse..
Our bottom is apparently located in the Mariana trench.
we could get relegated before the board realises it. They are probably more concerned about the cost of sacking OGS. They have no idea of how the real United supporters feel. With this board we are lost. United is a financial entity not a football club with real supporters
Give it another few weeks. We will get a couple of results based on individual brilliance and the press will be briefed that Ole gets one more season.
like they've always said, "buy the dip
Or Status Quo, “down, down, deeper and down”
