You're rambling now, so I'm not sure I can be arsed but here goes. You jumped on someone for a post made ages ago - accusing them of disrespect - for jokily pointing out that of our two Ryan's he would hope that Fergie picked Giggs ahead of Tunnicliffe for the CL final. Which was, obviously, a very strange thing to do. When you post strange things (as you often do) chances are someone will take you up on it.
Ryan Tunnicliffe
- Thread starter Ole's_toe_poke
- Start date
You're right about the first point. That's ofcourse if I looked at the date he posted it? But you with your crystal ball.....The second point is you being overly maternal and abusing your position to take cheap shots. As for saying strange things....well, I have ideas about football but you read from a text book so naturally we'll disagree. What do you expect?
We're a club that embrace the youth. I remember dickheads jumping on people for saying trust the youth at the club....people have short memories. That's exactly what Sir Alex has done and is doing. You'll notice I never talk about other clubs youngsters and that's personally what i find strange. Sorry, if i'm aware of the talent we have, which everyone connected to the club agrees with including Sir Alex (who was talking about Cofie two years ago to someone at mutv), Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs etc...but we're not allowed to accept
Gives sglowrider a handshake
This from his twitter tonight.. He just rose to my favorite prospect.
Happy Birthday Tunnicliffe and nice contract extension too at Posh!!
How is he doing there?
What are the opinions of him from their fans?

Just did a quick search on "The Posh Forum"
In one thread (entitled "Ryan Tunnicliffe") they seem delighted that he's saying, although one person seems more impressed with Scott Wooton.
In another thread, somebody describes him as "An excellent prospect, especially so going forward down the middle."
Grant McCann is currently injured, which they think will mean more chances for Tunnicliffe.
Good news.
The club have given Peterborough permission to play both Wootton and Tunnicliffe in the FA-Cup.

Tunnicliffe and Wootton both start vs Sunderland. Live on ITV1.
Tunners shielded the back 4 well enough, which was clearly his primary task today. Surprised Fergie Jr. didn't give him more freedom at 0-2.
Thought he played alright considering he was up against a Prem side in good form
Wootton had some dreadful passes....lucky not to cost them a couple of goals
Apparently he has been offered a 3-year contract by United.
Great news if true.
I can see he goes the same way like Cleverley.

His attitude is bang on, he's got a very good chance of making it here, nothing is guaranteed though.
Yep. Seems to be a sensible guy.
He has a great chance of making it. Just hope he gets a good loan deal next season, like Cleverley/Welbeck did, where he get games and kick on.

I've always thought he had the best chance of making it of the midfielders from the FAYC team. Probably not as skillful as Pogba or Morrison but he's got his head screwed on straight and seems like he wants it more. He just has something about him that sets him apart from the likes of Hewson, Drinkwater, Ritchie Jones and the others who've just faded away after seeming like a sure thing.
I go to watch Hartlepool and you could see why Ritchie Jones never made it. Plays like he thinks he's infinitely better than what he is.
Will he be already ready for a Premier League loan next season for a club like Wigan or is it better for him to go to a top Championship club?
Unfortunately i haven't seen much of him at Peterborough.
But i've seen enough of him in his games for United that he's a massive talent.

At the moment, probably not. But he has only been there for half a season and was on the bench quite often at the start of the season (then other injuries meant he got a place in the first XI).
Another thing is that the players are limited in some respects by the squad they are playing with.
Welbeck looked decent but nothing special when he was at Preston for a few weeks, though he scored a cracker from what I remember. But he was ready for the league and stepped it up when he was at Sunderland.
That said, Welbeck was a special case. He had already played in the FA cup semis for us.. and done well.
Not sure any of those guys were really regarded as sure things to be fair.
I'm guessing he's talking about David Jones? Ritchie Jones would be a very strange player to single out as someone that was once considered a "sure thing".
No there was some hype around Ritchie Jones at the time too, which I always found odd. I guess people maybe got the 2 lads the wrong way round at times, can't see any other reason Ritchie would have ever got hyped up otherwise.
Gibson and David Jones were probably two better examples, but I certainly remember a good deal of hyper about Ritchie on the message board I was on back then. It was before the days of youth team matches being widely available online so I never saw much of him myself, which was probably why there was hyper in the first place.
there was one season where David Jones was so good for our reserves that he was 2 levels above everyone else. He bossed the midfield every game he played!
TBH that was hardly a vintage year for the youth.I saw them a lot and they really do not match up to last year's FAY Cup winning team...not a bad team but we do have better now
I think he's talking about players with similar qualities. Energetic but tidy footballers rather than technical or flair players. Without a doubt David Jones was on a different level technically than the other players mentioned.

I won't be going anywhere. As long as united offer me contracts. I will always be signing them. #mufc
I like him.

See, top attitude.
Brilliant words from Ryan
So what is this guy like, only seen him a few times for the reserves. Is he similar type of player to Cleverley? What is his primary position?
People seem to think he has the mentality to make it at United. Hope so.

He is a Gerrard-light kind of player imo....he scores too little though, but a typical hard-tackling box-to-box midfielder. And he appears to have a hell of a winning attitude - everytime United did poorly, he was always the one who took charge to get United back into the game
He's a bit of a throw back to the committed, strong tackling, good passing, can break with the ball type midfielder. Box to box. He's good at injecting into games
Welp, that was a fun loan move...
will he play vs norwich?
Not likely.
Its 100% unlikely.
Any reason given for bringing him back?
Will take Poggers place in the squad. Facht.. or maybe not. Might go out on loan where he is a starter.
It was a youth loan so it would run out now unless Peterborough renewed it, I think SAF's presence at Peterborough last week was related to this. Tunnicliffe has done well for a young player playing the Championship but he needs game time, makes sense for everyone to let him come back.
I think he'll make it here because he gives always 100% like Fletcher and he has so much talent.
I really like his attitude, refreshing with what happened to Ravel and with all the rumours around Pogba. Really hope he makes it here.Ryan on getting verified on Twitter said:
