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 one. I hope.
Is this the only preseason tour game which is on at a UK friendly time?
Working tonight so I'll miss this Oh well come on you reds.
Watching Clev boss the midfield whilst eating KFC. The Red dream.
OMFG Clev as captain? Time to have a wank over LVG!!!!!

No, Real Madrid game is on at the same time on August 2nd and Valencia game is at Ot...on at 7.45pm on the 12th.
Didn't Wilson join when he was about 7.
People are so excited because if you juxtapose this start to the one we had last season, losing 1-0 to the Singha All-Stars, struggling against mediocre-poor sides, it's a complete 180 and people are rightfully giddy about our prospects.
Can't wait to see Herrera again
Pretty strong lineup that.
Ah thanks, just the Galaxy game which was on at stupid O clock, hope the rest are just as good
Making cleverly captain is typical of the pragmatic way Van Gaal has approached things so far and makes perfect sense.
Cleverly is one of two players playing 90 mins makes sense to keep the continuity and give him the captaincy for the game. Could also give him a much needed boost. He has been very poor recently but it looks like we are going to recycle the ball a lot quicker under Van Gaal and it could be perfect for Cleverly to show what he has. The way we were playing last year didn't bring the best out of any of our players.

Totti
Thought the same. Hopefully he plays well, he was brilliant before his injury last season.
Its a friendly against LA Galaxy, a first game for the new coach, with many new faces coming from a long break. Scoreline should be the least of the worries.
You lot are facing a much better team today of course, but its still not indicative of anything big. Good for the new players to mesh in and the coach to experiment and build his team.
It is being shown at 1:30am IST as soon as the match gets over. Keep Calm and Trust in Sony Pix
Christ that Roma team is capable of showing us up something rotten today, and De Rossi and Strootman aren't even playing. I know it's only a friendly but I'm still nervous as feck.
Yeah. Inter Milan is on at half past midnight which is still not very friendly to us in the UK...but not as bad as the Galaxy game.
Have you ever considered writing poetry for greeting cards?
I think so, yes. But he's not included in the tour, or is he? Nice nickname by the way.
I have somehow never noticed Romulus, Remus and the wolf on their badge before you said this...
no streams yet??

I'm sure the players were just as stressed out at the bad performances last season as all the fans have been.
I'd say the real benefit was seeing us look like a football team again, more than the sum of our parts.
Regardless of the opposition that day, the team's quality was on display, and that had to be a big relief, and a confidence booster, for all involved.
And filled out correctly this time
There's still time..
I would buy those cards.
Is that legit???
So Cole isn't playing then?
Good. We need to face strong teams, not LA Galaxy types. Makes Van Gaa's job easier knowing who's up for it and who isn't.Christ that Roma team is capable of showing us up something rotten today, and De Rossi and Strootman aren't even playing. I know it's only a friendly but I'm still nervous as feck.
Who needs a stream?
No it isn't, now move along with your hostile elitist dickhead attitude
http://unitedlive.manutd.com/ stream has started for anyone interested. And its perfect quality
Thought the same. Hopefully he plays well, he was brilliant before his injury last season.
He was, would have loved him at united whether it would have worked out or not. Could you imagine him with berba
Sorry to break it to you, it's freeview on MUTV. Unless you can't get it in Ireland....
Only the build up is freeview.
Any ideas how good the UnitedLive stream will be? I have pretty slow internet, don't want to pay for it, only to see the game spluttering and lagging all the time.
It'd be rude to say no...
Thank you!
