What was more painful? Having your wisdom teeth out or watching United at the moment?I didn't watch last night but that was a combination of it being a pretty dead rubber and my wisdom tooth having been taken out earlier.
Haven’t Liverpool fans pretty homogenously coped with it by still thinking they’re the best and that it’s the FA/Sir Alex etc that’s been keeping them down?I keep wondering how the hell Liverpool/Everton fans coped with their team’s fall from grace?
Did they reach a breaking point like us, after a few years being shit, then get used to it and find a new way to relate to their club so they could at least continue watching them. Through thick and thin.
Or are we all just uniquely fickle, spoilt bastards?
I'm the same now. I miss a good few united game during the LVG era because they were so boring to watch. Every game was 1-0. Recently with mourinho is the same, still a bit better then lvg but not by a lot.Missing a good few games in LVG's final season and didn't care.
Yesterday was the first game I switched off mid game (after going 2-0 down). In fact, it was so bad in the first half I was hoping we'd concede so I could switch it off because we were never getting a result against 2 goals.
That’s the fecked up thing. I thought that a lot during LvG’s reign too. It’s weird watching bottom half teams and envying the cohesion and flow in their play.You can basically watch any other PL game and it'll be more enjoyable to watch than our games. Throughly enjoyed the Newcastle/Wolves game on Sunday for example, much better watch than half the dross we've served up in our games.
Never thought I'd say it, because I stuck and had my passion through Moyes and LvG, but José has done to me, what LvG done to you. I didn't even bother to watch the game last night, and wasn't arsed when I looked at the score.Lvg turned me off football completely so much that I struggle to watch any matches not just united. I’ve found it hard to get my passion back, I’m ambivalent to results. I had hoped Mourinho would get my mojo back but it’s just so uninspiring too
Stole my words. I often get the feeling that I should be watching other games, but I still stick to United. It's like self-flagellation, I suppose, torture yourself to prove that you're a real fan.I still watch the games but I find myself wondering "Why am I watching this?"
Love it, imagine a season of thrashing every team in the championshipEmbarrassing. What would you do if we were relegated for Christ’s sake?
I’m the sameI still watch every game religiously. The difference these days is I don't get nervous and expectations are basically non-existent. You could describe my feelings as watching pre-season games. Sadly, and I know it sounds childish but it seems my biggest joy from this season will be if Liverpool manages to mess up their season or we miraculously win a cup.
I watched the Apprentice, guess the Man Utd game may have matched it for humourA taxi driver I met yesterday who is a United fan said he was going to watch the live politics show last night rather than united as it would be more exciting!
Why is it embarrassing? By the way we were relegated in 74 and watched every game I could, difference was we played better football then.Embarrassing. What would you do if we were relegated for Christ’s sake?
Bore off 'Top Red'.Embarrassing. What would you do if we were relegated for Christ’s sake?
This is it for me as well. I don’t pay for a subscription anymore, but I just can’t help myself from finding streams and having the game on in the background. I do get a lot of other stuff done though, laundry, doing the dishes, scrubbing the bathtub and toilet etc. I’m not entertained so I won’t pay a lot of money each week to watch.I watch it because I can't help not watching and would just end up following the live score elsewhere. No real pleasure in watching though, just waiting for a change.
It's a bad feeling, I used to be excited for the weekends and hated international breaks.Stole my words. I often get the feeling that I should be watching other games, but I still stick to United. It's like self-flagellation, I suppose, torture yourself to prove that you're a real fan.
Damn, you've had a tough life SultsI actually laughed first time in my life when Jones scored that own goal . It's now become embarrassing.
