We've won 7-1 in 2007/2008. Don't know where the 0 comes from, yet I've seen it in a lot of posts.

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?

Good to see us playing with great cohesion once again. Felt like it was back to the Fergie days when everyone played for the team.
Absolutely!
Probably quite hard because of tv rights.
and I'm very impressed by Reece James. Looks very much at ease.
The only thing Cleverley has won tonight was the coin toss.
Why are American ads so shite. At least a fair few British ads are more abstract. There have been barely ads on Fox so far that aren't "BUY THIS PRODUCT - Jingle - BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!! - Jingle".
We will be like Holland, just try to outscore the opposition.
Ah crap I woke up at 2nd half.
I don't get it?
tut tut no apologies for the feed disappearing. I'm phoning Sky!
I honestly don't think we've played as bad as the lot of you are making out. Yeah, we've looked shaky in the back trying to play the offside trap, with 20 year old Blackett playing part of a back three, and featuring our third string keeper, but a couple of their chances looked to be offside, or damn near close.
It took us 30 minutes to get our offense in gear but when we did, 3-0.

Impressive stuff from us towards the end of the half. We're starting to develop more potency in attack. We have some quality players and this formation is helping to gel them together. More of Rooney, Mata and Herrera on the ball please.
Defensively we still look far to open though. That will take more time on the training field.

no chance with the tv rights. Sky and BT Sport wouldn't pay anywhere near what they pay now if United were to opt out and do this for all their games (which was discussed by United a few seasons back). I think we'll reach a point where it will make much more financial sense for us to stream all our games. Especially abroad.
LA match.
Them shirts Gardner and Paddy are wearing are of the highest quality...
Yay, it's Paddy
I agree. This is a good team with a good manager.
Roma will win Seria A next year.
TC? What you talkin about Willis?
The most pleasing aspect of that second goal by Mata was that we did to Roma what they've been trying to do all game - Highball behind the defence and boom!
I'm surprised that Roma's only real method of attacking is their highball strategy and hoping for our unsettled backline to make a mistake. Every single one of Roma's chances were mistakes by our players and that is very, very pleasing. Means we can improve and completely tighten things up.

Brendan wasn't trying to beat them. He was trying to understand their philosophy. Or some such bollocks.
Come back to me MUTV! Don't die!
I'm thinking more for international audiences
All I saw was the last 15 minutes and it was great. the confidence and dominance from the galaxy match seemed to take over.
Paddy is like the old drunk guy you would cross the road to avoid
They can't. Other organisations own the broadcast rights for the competitive matches.
The last game...
We won 7-1 in 2006-07.
MUTV finally on! Want to see the 3rd goal now!
They're having a shocker but they're broadcasting a feed from the US so bound to have some issues.
Paddy after the first half hour of football is not surprised we went in 3 up.
God, that would be awesome. Never going to happen, unfortunately.
Yeah, both well taken too
We've done well, I don't think Roma truly dominated us at the start, they had a great chance, but we gave it away a few times tbh, they were keep the ball well but it was very predictable, and some poor refereeing too. After Rooney's it was normal business. I think Welbeck should have done better when he tackled the goalie.
Tight get!Its was a bit of a reach to begin with!! im finding his commentary a tad uninspiring!
was van gaal right , when he said he needs a defender?
It's all experience and learning for the young lads James and Blackett. I have a feeling the Linesman has arsed up a couple if decisions and made them look worse than they have actually been.
Was it just me or did the MUTV commentator say that Benatia was French earlier in that half?
Those two might not have realised. They were on the touchline. David Stowell/Danny Higginbottom were commentating.
..and that was because it was double sided
