  1. Leeds (dirty thugs) discussion

    I am calling it now - United will be scheduled to host Leeds at OT before crowds are allowed back into EPL stadiums, so that the police don't have to manage that situation. But, conveniently, we will have to travel to Leeds once crowds are back (the powers that be will want to give Leeds the...
  2. Is Lingard as good as gone? | Contract extended by one year

    Who were Zlatan's best mates at United? And what was the age gap...?
  3. Manchester City banned from CL for 2 seasons and fined 30 million euros | CAS - Ban lifted, fined 10 million

    They wouldn't. I'm just being silly. (But on a serious note, imagine if the legal situation drags on and on, is only resolved in September, by which point City have played 1 Champions League game, and then are forced to quit the competition.)
  4. Football Jargon

    I hate it when opinions are preceded with "For me..." Once you notice "for me" in football punditry you'll go mad - it's said far too often.
  5. Manchester City banned from CL for 2 seasons and fined 30 million euros | CAS - Ban lifted, fined 10 million

    Imagine the absolute scenes when City get a reduced 1 year ban, and UEFA decides to reduce the number of EPL champions leagues spots to just 3 for this season, and give the Europa league runners up the spot instead.
  6. Sane in talks with Bayern?/ Signed for Bayern

    Sancho... :nono:
  7. Pick your all time 5 a side team of favourite nicknames

    Lads I have actually played with in Sunday/Pub league teams: Big Dave (GK - obviously) Simple (DF - this was a bit mean...) Biggest Dave (DF - Dave's bigger friend, also called David) Tom's mate (MF - we never even attempted to use his real name/nickname) Ammo (FW - as in, short for...
  8. Could they void the PL due to the Coronavirus? | No | Resuming June 17th

    Thing is, education is continuing right now, under the guise of "online" lessons. Learning, without being surrounding by all the other students at packed school, has started. Surely football, without being surrounded by fans at packed stadiums, is possible now?
  9. So, What is your favorite Utd song or chant...

    No one has said it so far: Ruud Van Nistelrooy, tra la la la la, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, traaaa la la la la la Repeated every time he scored. That, and when the whole crowd says Ruuuuuuuuuuud in a low roar. Miss those days.
  10. Why does Mexico not have a stronger NT?

    The players are a lot stockier than I expected. Also, the players aren't the tallest in the world. (With regards to general diet and nutrition, Mexico recently overtook the USA as the most obese country in the world (Several sources: do a Google search for "obesity in Mexico") I got his stats...
  11. The Cage 2.0 2020 Version

    Salah, Pogba, Sterling. Lacking a decent tackler, but to be fair, so are most of the original 3 man teams from 2002. This 3 man team would just try and out score their opponents.
  12. Why does Mexico not have a stronger NT?

    Pragmatically, Mexico has some major factors in its favor that would suggest that they should have a very strong national side at World Cups. Take the capital (Mexico City) where many of the best Mexican players play (Club America, Pumas, Cruz Azul etc): 1. The players live, train and play at...

    I just got back to England - was in Bangkok. I did Phuket and Pattaya too - crazy trip haha!
  14. MUTV Subscription

    I just bought it in Thailand on a 1 year subscription for less than the price of 1 month's subscription in the UK. Well worth it for me.
