People who are not born in the UK, but who live and work in the UK, are fully entitled to criticise any aspect of living here, without the bigoted cry of "why dont you just leave the country then?"

yes sure. but as I said it doesn't really hit the Glazers pockets.< Half-time walkouts, 5 min before the end walkouts have they've been tried before and tried multiple times since the Glazers owned the club. Green and Gold protest most famously. And yet the Glazers are still here. Why...

I agree mostly with this with one exception. "mass walkouts" mean people are still attending games and thus buying tickets/seasons tickets. How does that then affect the Glazers pockets? It is like going to a restaurant, paying for a 3 course meal in advance. Eating your starter but then...

until the owners fully back a manager vs the players, this situation will never go away and we wont be competitive. It was the same with Moyes, and particularly with Mourinho vs Pogba. When Mourinho tried to put Pogba in his place he was undermined, and the result was Mourinho lost the...

Ronaldo was awful including that overhead kick

how can you say he was done after Madrid. The guy won a premier league title in 2015. Our whole football club has only had 2 people since 1911 (Busby and SAF) who have won the premier league/first devision. So, what's that.. 111 years. And yet, someone who managed to win in 2015 was apparently...

what is this revisionist BS. Sure, Mourinho didn't win the premier league at United, and disappointed at Spurs. But questioning whether he would have been "serviceable for a couple of season after 2013"? The guy left Madrid at the end of 2013 to join Chelsea and won them the league title in...

Yeah. Cos Jose, upon leaving Madrid, transformed a Chelsea side and won the premier league in 2015 in his second full season there.

Nottingham Forest to Utd. Peter Davenport and Gary Birtles. £750,000 and £1.25mil respectively. Big money back in the day. Brian Clough was a master at selling on mediocre players or players that were past their best.

They ought to be stripped of their last few league titles, making us and Mourinho premier League winners in 2018. It won't happen. But why shouldn't it happen. Armstrong was retrospectively stripped of all his tour de france wins

they haven't made "US" rich, they've made themselves rich. "US", as in the club, are still in the red because of the debt the Glazers put onto the club. yes, they've increased revenues but the majority of increased revenue would have come about regardless of the owner because this coincided...

The idea that we protest for regime change by attending Man Utd games both home or away is and has always been totally flawed. The Glazers will happily take your cash from your ticket purchase and will continue to make their millions from running the club. Think of it as any product. If you...

very hit and miss in 88-89. But we finished second the previous season and so there were shoots. Ferguson was for sure under pressure but critically came with an outstanding CV from Scotland. Getting Aderdeen to beat the old firm was a stunning achievement. That gave him the time he needed to...

of course. 1. we are 2 points from relegation 2. most our players do not have the necessary quality 3. most of our players do not have the necessary desire 4. We replaced one of THE greatest managers of all time (a guy who has won 2 champions leagues with 2 different clubs and multiple league...

avoid relegation
