Couple more postponements and points will be docked as they will want the season done and dusted with the Euro's on the horizon.
Man Utd updated schedule - 4 games in 8 days | Roma, Villa, Leicester, Liverpool
- Thread starter roonster09
- Start date
Huh?
Top 4 is done. I mean protest again so that this game gets rescheduled again and hopefully the date fixed would mean we have decent rest
None of the latter fixtures was set in stone, Premier league could easily have moved them around especially for the TV schedule
BTW would be no fans in Old Trafford last Sunday delaying that match if United had competent owners.
We had a similar run of games in the 96/97 season with 4 games from May 3rd to May 11th that year. Fergie tried to get the league extended
May 3rd - Leicester 2-2
May 5th - Middlesbrough 3-3
May 8th - Newcastle 0-0
May 11th - West Ham 2-0
May 3rd - Leicester 2-2
May 5th - Middlesbrough 3-3
May 8th - Newcastle 0-0
May 11th - West Ham 2-0
Like anyone cares the difference between 2nd and 4th nowadays anyway. The board clearly dont
Some of you guys are crazier than those on RAWK.
You were happy when the game was postponed than surprised when our fixtures got tight. You are complaining about FA favouring Liverpool or Chelsea, what did they expect, Euros to be moved so United has one more weekend to play the postponed games? You want to get the Glazers out so they disrispect our coaches and players when they have been working so hard to improve and cope with the tight fixtures. You degrade oil clubs’ achievements yet you would rather have Saudi owners then the Glazers. You want the team to bring home a trophy yet you are willing to disrupt them before they can secure second place and win their first trophy with Ole.
I agree with some points about the Glazers, they should hear the fans and not make major decisions without us but there should be better ways than messing with the team we support.

Exactly.
Nice of the idiotic scumbags to wreck property attack police and now hurt the players all while embarrassing the club.
Wonder what they were looking to achieve again

What a load of old shit.
Get a grip man.
I´m just glad there was no point deduction. Bring it on.
Great news for Leicester anyway. And van de Beek.

And some of you can't read.
These are not the same people. I've tried to colour code it for you. Hint: the people in purple don't exist.
No one's surprised that our fixture list got tighter. We're complaining at the ridiculousness of the schedule - a schedule that could have easily been normal had they just moved up Pool vs WBA
Rescheduled when? We have to finish by 23th May. Maybe they could move the one agains Fulham a few days but I don’t think it’s FA’s main concern to make our lives easy. And it shouldn’t be. I expect points deduction if we fail to play on more game. And top four is not done. Very close but not done. Also I think the players want to finosh second, we should respect that.
1 win out of our next 5 would guarantee top 4.
Not remotely worried.
Not remotely worried.
Why would they move Pool vs WBA? It’ ms not their fault that the game wasn’t played.
Is Phil Jones available?
Maybe not the same people but thare has to be some overlapping. 90% were supporting the protests, but not most people are moaning about the fixtures. It it was RAWK we would all be laughing at them.
Why does there have to be some overlapping? The 10% who didn't support it made up 126 people and there have been what, 10 or 15 people moaning about the fixtures?
Surely the opposite?
PL can't expect us to play a full team Sunday/Tuesday, they must expect a full team Sunday/Thursday, with a weakened team in between against Leicester.
Yup.
Are they going to bend over backwards because some arsewipes couldn’t help themselves but to take a peaceful protest too far? Like feck they were.
Deal with it.
They'll be setting up a new club yet. Call it United FC or something. or maybe the other way round to try and look profound.
There you go showing your lack of thinking. Why does it have to be one or the other. Finishing 2nd does mean something for a team trying to get its self back to where it belongs and I bet you it will mean something to the players and Ole. Another step in the right direction. Anyone saying they don’t care if we don’t finish 2nd need to take a hard look at themselves because they’ve lost touch of what it is to support a “team”
Fans like yourself are why the game is in such a terrible state because you no longer care for the emotion of the game, the pride in your team doing well or give a crap about the players and how hard this season would have been under the circumstances.
I would quite like the Glazers to sell up and feck off or start investing in the infrastructure of Manchester United. I’m also aware the only people with the ability to buy the club are the Saudi Regime. Which then opens a whole new moral conundrum.
Joke. Unfair advantage for Liverpool. Hopefully we play out reserves against Leicester to make sure Liverpool have no shot at top four.
You don't get it. You would rather us finish 2nd than get a new start.
The club will never get back to where you want it to be under these lot. Never. Too much debt and interest to pay back. And don't forget the dividends.
Our fanbase are spineless. We aren't even going to threaten winning the CL anyway. The Glazers just want the TV cash it brings.
Leicester are the real winners here.
We need to double-down and go even harder to get this one suspended again to send a message to the pricks that picked this date!
The supporters who backed and continue to back the protest aren't saying we don't want us to finish 2nd or that we don't care about Ole and the team.
We're simply saying that we believe this is more important. We don't think that short term "success" in the here and now, is worth jeopardizing the long term success and position of our club.
We have 16 years of evidence backing up our position. Those dismissing it have scare stories about who might come after.
I would be saying the same thing if we were a point behind City and fighting for the title. This is bigger than one season.

This is just sad. You lot are terrible. Lost complete touch with what football and supporting a team is about. All you’re thinking about is your end goal of getting back to being a glory hunter masquerading as a top red. Disgusting.
The irony of you accusing people fighting for the clubs soul of being glory hunters is bloody laughable.
What date would you have preferred ?
You’re kidding yourself if you think they are fighting for the clubs soul. They want the Glazers out so they can get a rich sugar daddy so they can buy players Willy Nilly so they can compete for the champions league. The guy just all but admitted it in his last post By saying he doesn’t care about champions league because we aren’t going to win it. And previously saying doesn’t care about finishing 2nd.
Fighting for the clubs soul. Never heard so much rubbish in my life. Be good if people could be honest what their motives are and stop trying to hide beside such obvious BS.
Because that was the most logical step. Hell, that's what FA asked for as well, and it would have happened had WBA not declined this fixture reschedule request
No, this attitude is what is pathetic. No true supporter would want this.
It evens out in the end.
Rescheduled it by moving WBA vs Pool and then have it in thhe FA Cup final weekend.
We need 3 points from 5 games to seal top 4. I'm pretty sure top 4 is done. Hell, I'm somewhat sure that even 67 points would mean top 4
Doesn't 4th mean going through a qualifying round so earlier start/less pre-season... as we did this season. And after a load of players at the Euros.
I could jump on words you've used to score points against you if I wanted. A couple of posts you talked about getting the club back where it belongs just as he has done.
There were 10,000 people on the streets of Manchester on Sunday who care deeply about fighting for the soul of the club.
What gives you the right to look down your nose at them because you care more about finishing 2nd this year than them getting their local football club back?
I want the Glazers out. If we keep clinging on to top 4 but never going anywhere serious they won't ever go.
Sometimes you have to fall to come back. Look at Liverpool under H&G. They fell really far and before long won the CL and PL.
Glazer apologists make me sick. Missing out on a competition we won't win anyway means nothing to me.
Dividends and interest payments are less than £50m per year, hardly bleeding us dry.
