Honestly mate, this meant so much to me today. She died just after we beat Derby County in 2016 and it was the last time I watched football with her.
As a result, the FA cup is extra special to me and she would've been so proud today.
Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?

You're using a strawman to defend your ridiculous statement, I'm not using it to proclaim anything, just stating that he's allowed to be defiant. You're so blinded by your hatred of the man you're complaining that he simply made the statement that he wins trophies, immediately after winning a trophy.
I know, it's a brilliant result, it's just so telling that some of the most prolific manager out posters on here are acting like they're gutted we actually won.There's a few in here who are incapable of having a day off so best not to waste your time and energy on them anymore mate, just enjoy the win
To be fair, it is a forum. That is where you can write stuff about football. A whole forum just filled with 'get it' if postive or 'fek off' if negative is a bit pointless dont you think?
Crank the calypso up lads
Ten Hag has behaved with class his entire time. Give the man his moment
Where did I make a strawman?
@Rightnr has unfortunately fallen down the same flight of stairs four or five times in a row, and accidentally been trampled on by elephants, so he won't be able to respond.
Yep I know, such a weird way to be after a win like that.
I have an idea... Is there precedence for different managers for the league and cups?

Yeah it grinds my gears
Wow with the way he posts I actually thought all that stuff had happened to him weeks ago, would've been the best explanation for the crap he's posted.
They do, but Mourinho crashed and burned and was replaced mid-season.
Say we get McKenna, his first game on charge of us (and his first game managing at the top level) will be a repeat of today in the Charity Shield. If we got taken apart by City in that, the comparison to Ten Hag, who has won things and last game was a trophy win, would be an instant undermining. With a poor few league games, it could be an October or November sacking.
The only way this works is if we get a proven winner in to replace Ten Hag
True. Allthough i do think that ETH performed above expectations in his first year. The second year finish (and the football) is very bad obviously but how much off that can be explained by all the injuries? Just look at todays match and see the difference that a not even fully fit Varane and Martinez make. Personally i find it difficult to decide if the injuries are enough of an excuse for such a poor season. Even with injuries 8th place is really bad.
In regards to sacking ETH. I dont really see a clearly better manager available to join. Im okay with ETH staying but i am equally okay with him being sacked.

The media hounding today has made me change my mind and want him to stay now feck it
Unfortunately the poster in question is a heckler and I hope he can find some peace so we can then discuss the actual game of football, which the poster doesn't want to discuss.
All of you guys are great posters and I hope you all enjoy the win against a City team who were beaten by a superior tactical plan. Unfortunately some seem to be disappointed that we won.
Football puts us through the wringer sometimes but there’s nothing like it for emotion - I hope today has brought you some comfort. A great day to be a Red
Insulting another member
Obviously continue being a clown.
You wouldn’t say that if you had to suffer his WhatsApp messages
Liverpool have had a rebuild this season?
Good one.
Liverpool have been performing extremely well over the years, annoyingly well, in that sense you could easily say last season was an anomaly rather than them being in a downward spiral, it's not that long a ago they were leading.
Champions League was more about individual mistakes costing us badly time and time again. Obviously you can always make the point that the individual mistakes were down to poor strategy and the responsibility of the manager, but some of the individual mistakes costing us goals were absurd, Crystal Palace levels of individual disasters.
The timeline doesn't check out though. He said he wanted De Jong and Casemiro, yet by the time we'd actually signed Casemiro we'd practically ended our pursuit of De Jong. So Casemiro was clearly in his thinking earlier that summer whilst chasing De Jong.
the press are a disgrace. The person who leaked the story to the press is a bigger disgrace
Unfortunately couldn't make it to the game mate. But it was a great win and has really made my weekend. I'm absolutely buzzing mate.
Maybe you should enjoy that the team you purport to support just deservedly won the FA Cup instead?
I'm sure your love of the club outweighs your hatred of the manager, at least enough to enjoy today and moan tomorrow. Anything less would look suspiciously like a religion as you put it!
Keep him. At least one more season.
Yep spot on mate, I noticed that about that particular poster weeks ago. I just can't believe people are acting this way today, we're all United fans and should be enjoying the hell out of this!
Nice, resorting to name calling.
It really did mate. I'm buzzing
Adnan called me a "great poster". This makes me almost as happy as I was to see United lift the cup!
You're right though (no change there), too many folk are just going out of their way to be miserable when this is a brilliant day.
feck it give him another season!!
That was magic today!!
That was magic today!!
That guy doesn’t like me and has insulted me so I automatically know you’re in the right.
Sure. He had his chance to set up in a logical way for 50 some odd matches. His suicide tactics got us 8th, -1 GD and last in the CL group. He decided not to do so. We easily could have made top 4.
You actually can’t fire him after today imo. It’s not right.
We only had poor expectations due to the season before, but realistically those players are capable of top 4 finishes.
The injuries are not an excuse, Varane and Martinez struggled in the first two or three weeks of the season because ETH was playing those suicidal tactics. He's changed the system and now they look better, but let's not forget the manager is more to blame than injuries.
I don't see how Tuchel is worse than ETH? Can't United convince a manager like Enrique or Valverde to come over? Conte is available even if he is not what people want. There are managers with a better record than him who are either available or should be contacted.
We agree for once
