  1. Calum Chambers

    I've known (and obviously been watching him play) since he was 16/17. Steaks ahead of any defender he played with or against at youth level...real class act. Seems to get a hard time for making mistakes when he gets the odd game at Arsenal - but what defender, especially young ones, come in...
  2. All ticket/travel information thread - 2016/17 -Touting will not be tolerated on the site

    Know this is a bit of a long shot - but I have two Cat 1 tickets in the neutral section for the EL final (worth €300). If anyone is interested in a straight swap (whatever the face value) of a pair in the United end once the draw has taken place. Happy to swap them for two Cat 3, 2 or 1...
  3. All ticket/travel information thread - 2014/15 -Touting will not be tolerated

    This is a hell of a long-shot I realise, but desperately after one or two for Arsenal on Saturday. I have a friend travelling from America specifically for it and I've not been able to get a single ticket. Usually get 3/4 for every away, but for one reason or another, hitting brick walls with...

    I have a spare for Newcastle later today, United end. Face value £45. Meet at ground. DM me if interested - first come first served.
  5. All ticket/travel information thread - 2013/14 -Touting will not be tolerated

    I'm going to have two spare in Stretford T1 Upper (WU203) for the Liverpool League Cup game, one adult one senior. £60 for the pair. If anyone is interested.
  6. All ticket/travel information thread - 2013/14 -Touting will not be tolerated

    Got one spare (maybe two TBC) for Liverpool away on Sunday - looking to swap only for a City away ticket. Obviously realise ballot results aren't out until after Liverpool, so looking for someone who is trustworthy and trusted. PM me if interested. Afraid the ticket is not for sale though, got...
  7. Jamie Carragher - Sky Pundit

    Ah, beaten to it, by a matter of seconds... First post in months as well!
  8. Jamie Carragher - Sky Pundit

    Haha, class...well done Nev, episode one and you've already basically just called him a thieving scouser...
  9. Your favourite moments of 12/13

    Class, class video. My god it's good.
  10. Best passer of the ball United have had

    Veron for me. All day long. Such a shame he never settled. Such glimpses at the beginning. Scholes too, obviously - but that's a given.
  11. Your favourite moments of 12/13

    To be honest, I can't remember a single individual moment where I've been in a stadium and gone more mental than I did at City this year when RVP scored. Certainly not since Moscow. Made all the more sweet by the fact I was on the end of the row in the away end, and all the bitters next to me...
  12. End-of-season POTY awards ceremony

    Was he in his full kit?
  13. Plans "in place" for Fergie retirement.

    I'm not so sure about all this "if Mourinho goes to Chelsea then he won't come to us" chat. I think in his eyes, if he went to Liverpool or City, then yes it does, but possibly not Chelsea... ...and lets face it, we all expect another 2/3 years of Fergie, so if he does go back to Chelsea that's...
  14. Plans "in place" for Fergie retirement.

    It's impossible to create lists like this with any real degree of long-term accuracy. Guarantee if you'd have made it two years ago, looking two years ahead, it would have had Martin O'Neil and David Moyes on it and Klopp nowhere near, 3/4 years ago Roy Keane...etc Yes, a few of those names are...
  15. The FIFA Thread | Blatter hires opera singer and Henry Kissinger to reform FIFA

    This is brilliant fun - 20 minutes now it's been going and they're still there...incredible nobody has pulled them down yet!! Maybe he has taken some truth pills...
