  1. Andrei Kanchelskis

    I used to work with an elderly Man City fan back in the 90's (it's a rarity to see a Man City fan in the wild in North Wales today, let alone back then) and he hated us with an intensity I've never been able to fathom for exactly this reason. Was always banging on about us exploiting the memory...
  2. Andrei Kanchelskis

    And lo, the tradition of Summerbee talking bollocks during punditry for Manchester derbies was born.
  3. Andrei Kanchelskis

    My favourite memory of Kanchelskis is his performance in the 5-0 spanking of City following a 4-0 defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League. Not only did he score a hat-trick in that match but he also banged a smashing 40+ yard pass to Cantona that he controlled brilliantly with the outside of...

    Still after a pair for the Palace game if anyone can oblige.
  5. All ticket/travel information thread - 2019/20 edition - Touting will not be tolerated on the site

    Looking for a pair of tickets for any 3pm Saturday kick off for the coming season. First one on the calendar is Crystal Palace so if anyone has a pair spare for that one could you give me a shout please? Thanks muchly in advance.
  6. Paulo Dybala

    Would you not want to hear the words straight from the horses mouth? If my employer acted the way Juventus have done to force me out I would absolutely do everything in my power to ensure that my boss at least had to tell me to my face why he was being such a cnut. There is no fecking chance...
  7. What did you call this when you played football as a kid?

    Pel gwynt here in North Wales. Translates as air ball.
  8. Transfer Tweets - 2019/20 | Check the OP for blacklisted sources before posting

    More like going from Dybala to Dybala and Mandzukic according to reports. Don't let that get in the way of finding a reason to moan though.
  9. Solskjaer target 5 signings; 6 players could leave [BBC, Telegraph, Guardian]

    How does Woody being an accountant force other teams to buy our players. I mean, I get it that our squad has a lot of dross in it, that's not in dispute, but how the feck is our CEO responsible for forcing other teams to buy our unwanted players? And you can't just release players without...
  10. Gay footballers | Czech Republic international Jakub Jankto comes out as gay

    I don't think anyone with an ounce of common sense has.

    Well, he didn't wipe his arse with a picture of Woodward and state that this is the worst Manchester United squad in living history so what do you expect by some of the miserablists on here?
  12. Gay footballers | Czech Republic international Jakub Jankto comes out as gay

    It's not a matter of publicly stating their sexual orientation though is it. It's a matter of being able to live a normal life without having to hide who they are. Openly living with their partner, going out for meals, holding hands in the street, having their partner come along with them to...
  13. Henry Winter: Every supporter should celebrate if Liverpool triumph

    I can't think of a single non Liverpool supporter I know that wants Liverpool to win the league. Granted, I live in North Wales so most of the non Liverpool supporters I know are either Everton or Utd supporters so that's probably not a fair sample. Still though, the handful of Arsenal, City...
  14. Di Marzio: Barca make bid for Pogba

    I'd guess at least half of the Daily Mail's traffic comes from people linking to their articles externally in a "look what these crazy feckwits are saying now" kind of way. It's a pretty good business model to be fair.
  15. Is Harry Maguire really better than Smalling and Bailly? Has Woodward got this right?

    You'd be surprised. I know a couple of Liverpool fans and a fair few Everton fans that seriously overrate the guy and think we'd be mental to get rid of him. For the record I think he's an good defender but a poor football player, relatively speaking. I don't really rate Maguire much either though.
