Flex was great on the United Stand, as was KG. Sadly, I find the new channel run by Flex pretty hard to watch, especially KG's show, which is just annoyingly repetitive.
I agree

Out of interest, where does one go for 'real' United content?
I generally have a select few football podcasts I listen to, some mainly focus on reporting news and some deeper analysis. Some from fans actually at the games like United We Stand, which isn’t as good since of the hosts stepped away, but still gives a far better view of match going fans.

Obviously everyone is welcome to watch whatever they see fit it, but as others have said to me, it does make far more sense reading some of the opinions on here now.

I don't think I have seen a single video of these fans talking about game. It's not like they have some insights or some sources from where they get some info that's not available for others.

"Ole is not good enough" "de beek should have got more chances" "ManUtd tweets are PR" "Players tweets are PR stunts". Yeah we all know that.

Someone like Rio or other journalists talking? Yes because they talk about their past experiences or they have sources.

Of course. But they're fan channels, fans expressing opinions. It's pretty much this place in video form, but the people on youtube have gathered an audience from talking about Utd.

I put the United stand on occasionally just to hear the latest gossip rather than trawl twitter but I must admit, whether it's an act or played for the cameras, I think Goldbridge does well filling an entire show usually talking to himself. I think that's an actual skill in itself so it doesn't surprise me people tune in.

The new "content" is just opinion pieces. It's just watching people get angry.

At this place you have 2 way conversation. Watching youtube videos, it's one way isn't it.

Anyways just to make it clear, I'm not judging anyone.

Goldbridge must've multiple accounts on here. He's a stereotypical Redcafe football forum poster.

I've only recently watched the channel but he's quite bad. Probably because of his constant agenda blatantly for Ole he will be dismissive to any facts.
That other guy, Jay I think, was given a super chat called Ole out on the crisis talks with senior players - all it said was it shows how Ole really has lost control and is surrendering power to the players. Jay said "I've seen it work. It's been successful before". The constant spin on Stretford Paddock is just too much, you'd think they're on MUTV's payroll.

As for Goldbridge, I'm fine for his general views but it's his delivery thats full of hyperbole and also his dismissive nature toward any alternative point.

Well Goldbridge interacts with a live chat during the majority of his videos to be fair.
If you call clueless shutting down of 70% of the super chats a fair interaction, sure.

Fair enough, but I find a fair number of the more 'serious' podcasts to be quite annoying in their own right. I fecking hate that Tifo football one - so insufferable, and anytime Jonathan Wilson is on Football Weekly (which I otherwise like), I find my eyes glazing over. I get that Goldbridge isn't an attendee at matches, but some of the other guests on United Stand, such as Beth, Adam, and Kevin are. I usually find their input the most interesting.

Gold ridge Brent di Cesare is not a United fan. He is a Nott forest fan who shamelessly uses United to make a living. He rarely goes to games, he just comes up with fake headlines and gossip to drum up his audience. He is a disgrace and should not be considered a United fan channel. It’s just him sitting in the basement talking smack

You mention fake headlines, but where is your evidence to back up the Forrest claim?

that’s not true at all. People from Nottingham can support united. There’s pics of him kicking around as a kid in united kits etc. 100% a united fan.

What's the channel called with the two incoherent old geezers ?
They're alright from time to time.

You lot are defending a clickbait scammer in Goldbridge. He is no United fan. A photoshopped pic doesn’t make him one. He saw the opportunity to make a living and jumped on it. Fair play to Brent he has scammed thousands of kids successfully. I’m not buying it

howson Mckola Flex Stret paddock etc otoh are real United fans. They go to games and man United is in their best interests

You probably shouldn't rely on other people to form your opinion for you. But since you asked to be told what to think, here you go:
The feck you talking about, i have a dig with selling wisdom and you chime in with that nonsense claim haha.

Goldbridge put up a video over 10 hours ago saying Ole has been sacked but as far as I am aware that hasn't happened yet.

I blame him for a significant part of the fan toxicity online. Horrible drama merchant that feeds in to peoples worst emotional impulses.

He put up plenty of we’d signed numerous players in the summer that came to nothing. He’s just a click merchant, post any old crap and some people are mad for it. He gets his stories off the media.
