The Lingard thing was all about being a dickhead to a player that had been on the books for over two decades at Man Utd. You had no plans to use him outside of emergencies and were never going to sign another contract with him. He was still in the England squad but didn't make the cut to the...

Congratulations? He's alright but will never be the 'new Carrick' he was hyped up to be. And apparently it doesn't matter as different people were in charge of the clubs. Man United are obviously a bigger club but I don't think it matters if he wanted to join Man United or Shrewsbury Town. Our...

It's almost a guarantee we are getting fleeced in any case just like you are, the selling club won't accept few million less if we were fair on Ashworth and just allowed him to go when he wanted. It's just a fact that objectively bigger club will get asked more, especially when that club is...

Any real need for misogyny like this?

Yeah, I don't think it's small time at all. There's almost a guarantee of some bad blood between Ashworth and the owners, executives and Howe after Ashworth wants to jump ship so quickly after we spend a lot of time and money getting him in couple of years ago. If we paid £5m to Brighton to get...

FFP has changed the footballing world. It's there to protect the established clubs from any outside threats. I honestly don't think any NUFC fan cares about the general interest on the project. There are only so many times you are eager to see Mbappe and Neymar linked when everyone knows it's...

You're judging the whole fanbase based on one idiot punching a horse or saying a throwaway comment when passing a camera (and the club banned him iirc)? Grow up man ffs.

Duran not getting a red is ridiculous, his elbow after the whistle caused a bleeding wound but Robinson didn't go down.

That end was Newcastle fans.

Well then I'm sorry for laughing back at you. ;) And from what I've seen this thread has been used for general NUFC discussion.

This is spot on. Miley is a potential star but we don't really have anything behind him in the youth teams after the Ashley negligence and it's a lot to ask of Miley too to play five 90 minutes in couple of weeks against elite opposition. Longstaff and Wilson were in the squad for the first time...

I'm sorry for my earlier post. I've always tried to be respective as I know that I'm a guest here but it's not always easy when you come to read the thread after tough loss(es) and see nothing but piss-taking for couple of pages. I have many good friends in real life who are Man Utd fans so I'm...

We used to be happy if we got 40, can't complain about 60s two seasons after the takeover.

Feels like I can't win here, tough crowd. Keep taking the piss, you know the truth deep inside even if EtH sometimes gets results with ugly football, was the same last season. ;)

Aye, a squad that has been missing: Anderson Barnes Botman Burn Longstaff Murphy Pope (now) Targett Tonali Willock Wilson Lewis Hall has been the only player in the bench for the past 5 matches that you were expecting to get any minutes in PL this season and Howe doesn't seem to trust him yet.
