This thread makes me feel old 
BBC: Man United sign young Ronaldo according to Portuguese TV!!!!!!!
- Thread starter Kevin
- Start date
I was 11 when we signed him 
Ah, so he never did actually take over from Giggs Still, he was fun while he lasted.
What's interesting when you see these old threads are the comparisons to other players who we could have bought with better reputations, more experience or even (allegedly) more talent - it's shocking how many of those teen sensations just disappeared off the radar again.

Hmmm, you mustve gone to a school in Sale then Mishkin, Richardson was in the year above my birds brother in that school and also says he was an arrogant git.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Yeah, Ashton on Mersey.
He was a cock. Thought he was some sort of "gangster". Infact an ex-United youngster who got dropped by United after having a fight and beating the living shit out of another student said "If I didn't play for United, I'd be a 'gangsta'". His name was Jemal Johnson, now of Blackburn and I can tell you he fecked the fattest slut at our school, he had no shame.
Oh and Kieran Richrdson got a blow job off one of the dirty Ashton on Mersey sluts under the bridge at the Brooklands metrolink station. I also heard a rumour that she got fecked, up against one of the grave stones in the Brooklands cemetry, don't know if it was by Richardson but she was loose. Hope he gets knob rott
7 years. Bloody hell. At that point even who would've thought he'd become as good as he did.
As time grows, the caf grows, in a good way or bad way I don't actually know.
hehe nice prediction
lol at Ronnies top

The £12.3m fee is accurate. When the club was a PLC the accounts showed the transfer fees paid for each member of the first team squad.
fachts
The £12.24 million apparently included "all associated costs", whatever that means.
Fergie must've taken one look at that shirt and thought 'oh no, here we go again'
lol, I read that and thought it somewhat came true, but it wasn't until you quoted it that I realised I was the poster.
Ouch.
The idea was good. Unfortunately the execution wasn't (other than Ronaldo of course).
It's strange looking back at your own posts seven years later. Can't remember them at all.
I bet we've all made some right howlers, to be fair.
Yet just a few years later, under SAF's leadership and Rio's watchful eyes we'd got his dress sense sorted outFergie must've taken one look at that shirt and thought 'oh no, here we go again'
Fortunately we also got to see him like this

I guess overall SAF thought it was OK.

This is still one of my favorite Ronaldo moments. Made me believe that we'd win the title. I remember jumping around and screaming which caused the neighbors to come and ask if I was Ok.
What it means is that the (3rd party) accounant who wrote the report approved that it was 12.24mln cost for the transfer. But you disupute this figure?
Wasn't that the week after (or before) the Liverpool game where O'Shea got the late winner? Those consecutive games won us the league. Loved that season where it all came together after a few years without the title and off the pace.
Ronaldo has taken Raul's #7 shirt this season

Ah back when we loved him.
No, I was clarifying it for others. But in the same breath wondering what "associated costs" actually means - is it just the fee due to Sporting plus agents fees and registration fees or does it - as some are suggesting - include the player's wages? I'd expect not, but it's unclear exactly what is meant by "associated costs".
It was just over a week before - at the end of February. I remember that I watched this at a pub in Lincoln while I was living there and there was a Chelsea fan who had a habit of strolling in for the last ten minutes of the United matches they weren't winning with a cocky smirk on his face. It was great when this wiped it off! Not quite as good as that Everton match at the end of April that season, though!RonaldoVII said:
