  1. [FCUoM] Twice in one week!

    Two FC goals have been included in The Guardian's goals of the week column: http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/sep/02/best-goals-week-bale-pjanic-rodriguez-martinez-wright-phillips Madeley's in particular is a corker.
  2. United's most troublesome opponents (players)

    I think the commentary on this clip sums up a period of games against Arsenal:
  3. [FCUoM] Congratulations FC United

    Certainly from the kind of debt that can be loaded on to a club be an investor or would be sugar daddy. No fat business man, sat sweating in his American office, looking at spread sheets and the potential profit they could line their own pockets with can load debt on to the club. Other kinds of...
  4. [FCUoM] Target reached - what an achievment

    If you're not at the moment, I'd make sure you're a member if you want to get into the Benfica match. I've heard nothing official as yet but my gut feeling is that the tickets will go to season ticket holders first, then members before going on open sale and with a capacity of around 4.5k I...
  5. [FCUoM] Target reached - what an achievment

    Also, it's on 29th of May :)
  6. [FCUoM] Target reached - what an achievment

    Yeah, it's gonna be a Benfica XI, but it'll still be a great night at Broadhurst Park. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31003815
  7. [FCUoM] Target reached - what an achievment

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-31653461 I can't wait for those first games when the ground opens - personally I think they should leave it till the Benfica match.
  8. [FCUoM] About F*%$£&*g TIME

    There were a few delays in the Autumn with the weather, I guess these things never go to plan. I also believe this last stand is taking a bit longer because the pitch is already down, which means it has to be erected from the back. I think it would have gone up pretty quickly if it had been done...
  9. [FCUoM] About F*%$£&*g TIME

    Has anyone else heard anything more concrete about the realistic first game date? Also, when you open a public building of this type you have to have test events ahead of the regular use. Has anyone heard what these events might be?
  10. [FCUoM] About F*%$£&*g TIME

    Things are coming along nicely, but I doubt we're going to see a game in there in 2014. I see on the fixtures that the game on New Years Day still has TBC in the location column at the moment, it would be amazing if we were in for then; but to my uneducated eye it looks like it's going to be...
  11. [FCUoM] Can't beat a very late winner...

    I've written about this in other threads before, so some of this is cut and paste from previous replies, but here's my two pence worth: Firstly, as with most things at FC, there would be different views from different supporters and all personal takes on the situation would be respected. I...
  12. UK Constitutional Reform Thread

    Cats in hats... yeah I can buy into that
  13. UK Constitutional Reform Thread

    Beyond the general structure of the country the fine details become much more difficult for me. How do the houses work? How do they interlock? Well for a start I think the four separate nations should choose what ever method of representation they see fit and as an Englishman I’ve come to think...
  14. UK Constitutional Reform Thread

    I'm a bit late to this thread but here's where I'm at in my thinking: Well first things first, I am feeling fairly optimistic about politics for the first time in a while and I think this result could be a catalyst in the UK. Change has to happen now in Scotland and that could break the dam...
