Well apart from all the ex managers who had good careers.Why does that make any difference? If it was relevant you wouldn’t be able to bring any ex managers in for their analysis

Name a few that haven’t been sacked at least onceWell apart from all the ex managers who had good careers.
The poster didn't say anything about him being sacked. Yeah that happens to almost all managers.Name a few that haven’t been sacked at least once
Exactly. And the thing is I don’t think United fans are demanding league titles etc. but we expect to be in the top four and to be able to play some decent football. None of those things are impossible because of the glazers. We’ve finished in the top four multiple times under them. This whole we can’t do better notion is a nonsense. We can do better than 8th place and losing every other league match we play.I picked up on that also. It only appears stable because they're doing so well. If we were playing really well then a lot of our issues would disappear or not be talked about. Nobody talked about a toxic environment last season, or in Ole's first season.
Spurs were anything but a stable environment when he took over though. I'd say worse than us, plus they had less money to spend and have a much worse squad of players than us.
It just goes to show how a happy team really sets the tone for a club. We worry about behind the scenes stuff first, when in reality if we could sort the football out then the whole outlook would change.
If you’re sacked it’s because you’ve failed, some utterly failed others may have enjoyed some success first. No difference, doesn’t make them any better at punditry. Was graham Souness a better pundit? Alan shearer is an analyst but was an utter failure as a managerThe poster didn't say anything about him being sacked. Yeah that happens to almost all managers.
They talked about his complete failure at the only managerial job he ever had.
I don't see why that means we can't have any manager who yes may have been sacked but also had successes.
You see the difference? Allardyce has been sacked but he's also had achievements?
Gary hasn't.
It's a real shame we don't have more managers doing punditry.
I'll never look at you the same way again.Never felt a greater kinship with Gary. About time someone in this country spoke truth to power.
Hard to get busy with the wife when Dennis and the kids are in the room.What about kicking off in pre season because his villa wasn't big enough?
I know Keane was better but Bruno is better than most, if not all, of our current players.I feel you're missing something here.
I mean we were winning all around us when Keane was berating every man and his dog. That stuff works when you're winning. It's tragic and counter productive and the opposite of leadership when you're not.I know Keane was better but Bruno is better than most, if not all, of our current players.
He is right, but he does have a blind spot when it comes to managers. He wanted to give Ole more and more time when it was clear he wasn't up to the job. The truth is that both the behind the scenes stuff and the manager can both be failing at the same time - it doesn't need to be one or the other as he tries to paint it. Eventually he will admit the obvious with ETH, but will throw loads of caveats about how he is still correct about the ownership etc. Which he is.Gary is intelligent and speaks about the bigger picture. He makes a lot of sense wondering why these managers and players keep failing. Culture swamps strategy.
It would have been a yellow card if he wasn't already bookedAbsolute bellend.
Disagree. It was a nothing challenge, it’s only a discussion because he’s on a yellow imoIt would have been a yellow card if he wasn't already booked
Not every foul is a yellow card. The referee didn’t say anything to Hannibal yet according to Neville he should definitely be offIt would have been a yellow card if he wasn't already booked
That’s not a yellow cardIt would have been a yellow card if he wasn't already booked
It's never a yellow. If it was counter attack then fine, but it was standard foul on half way line. Nothing more.It would have been a yellow card if he wasn't already booked
In the context of this game though - Considering what he just booked Casemiro for (pretty inocuous foul), and what Hannibal's first booking was for (not much) then yeah, that could have been a booking.It's never a yellow. If it was counter attack then fine, but it was standard foul on half way line. Nothing more.
When you think about it like that, yeah. But it would still be wrong because it's pretty soft criteria that we don't see on other pitches then.In the context of this game though - Considering what he just booked Casemiro for (pretty inocuous foul), and what Hannibal's first booking was for (not much) then yeah, that could have been a booking.

I didn't even think it was a that much of a foul personally, he didn't catch him, but for the ref to give the foul, I'm assuming he thought hannibal caught the Newcastle players ankle, which is usually a yellow.It's never a yellow.

He did but he didn't change his mind when he saw the replay as usual.I didn't even think it was a that much of a foul personally, he didn't catch him, but for the ref to give the foul, I'm assuming he thought hannibal caught the Newcastle players ankle, which is usually a yellow.
Unlike everyone on here. We're a total mess and he's been a lifelong fan and played during an era of total domination. For him it must be even worse than for most fans.You wouldn’t think this prick ever played for us the way he speaks about the club, yes he has to be impartial but FFS he sticks the knife in at every opportunity.
When will some of you realise this is football forum and some people just come to vent here and have some discussion, and hardly anyone would use live television for that like Gary Neville is doing?Unlike everyone on here.

Yeah you are right, no one should call the club out publicly. Good point.When will some of you realise this is football forum and some people just come to vent here and have some discussion, and hardly anyone would use live television for that like Gary Neville is doing?
It's pretty hard to be positive about us lets be honest.He's just more interested in being ultra negative towards United than anything else, it's just really goddamn weird.
