Sir Alex Ferguson, Ben Foster, Hayley McQueen.....
The Glazers will still own the club in 2020 when the club will be worth £4bn+ with EBITDA of £250m+.

The club will commit to spending £75m net on transfers between now and 1 July 2012.

A new protest will emerge against the Glazers in 2016 when details of a bond issuance are announced to replace the current one. Many supporters will fall for the MUST propaganda for a third time and Andersred will again claim the Glazers plan to take out hundreds of millions of pounds only for the protests to be quashed as Fergie leads the club to its 23rd League title and all the MUST/Andersred claims prove to be absolute nonsense.

One ain't happening without the other.

EDIT: Actually both ways doesn't really make sense :D But the first bold ain't happening without the second!

You've managed to confuse the shizzel out of me there. I have this sneaky feeling Arsenal will win the league this season and then Fabregas will say "that'll do for me".

Officially the best poker player on RAWK.
Liverpool won't finish top four for the next five years.

Rooney will grow old and get done for shagging young prostitutes.

Bebe will score the winner against Liverpool making him a cult hero within three years.

I told Fredthered last Summer that we would win the league this season and he scoffed... oh how he scoffed.

I said that we were stronger than Chelsea this season and he scoffed, oh how he scoffed.

We may not win the league this season, Arsenal remain a threat - but they are the only threat at this stage of the game.

I feel vindicated.

Where's Fredthered these days? :(

dreams can't be buy
-Owen Hargreaves will leave, sign for Man City, and get injured.
-We will sign David De Gea and perv over his girlfriend.
-King Minger will moan about us transfers.
-Next season we will be leading Man City by 8 points but then end up losing on goal difference as their new signing Sergio Aguero scores in the last minute against QPR.
-Pirlo will take the piss out of Joe Hart at the Euros.
-We will sign a Japanese player who dates a pornstar.
-Park will leave, Evra will be sad.

-I will edit my predictions after Pogue bumps this thread.

I'm going to make a few bold predictions here

Giggs and Scholes will retire before they're 50.
Rooney won't be here when he's 35.
We'll win the league cup again in the next 20 years.

We'll spend less than £25m this Summer.
You really think so? I think we could see a summer this year similar to 2007. Can't see Lindegaard or PIG being number 1 next season so I'd expect us to bring another goalkeeper in. A central midfield player is a must and a left-sided midfield player would be useful aswell.

Think we'll spend around £40/£50m.

I agree in thinking we will push the boat out a tad this summer.

I also expect the Glazers to push the ticket prices up again by 1-2 pounds a game in the near future.

We'll win only one of our remaining away games and lose the title to an average arsenal team.

Welbeck, Campbell and Gibson will not make the grade. They'll slowly fade into lower-PL football, like Richardson, Eagles and the like.

If we're not talking exclusively about United - Liverpool will not win the league within 5 years. I made the same prediction about five years ago and I was laughed at.
This one might yet be true...hoping not mind.

Macheda will be sold within 2 years.

Welbeck will begin to flourish in the United first team, after a loan move next season.

United will reject a huge bid for Nani at the end of the 10/11 season.

The first £100m player will emerge at the end of the 12/13 season.

That's a great shout - but who? Who currently is even close to that, but that also has potential to leave their current club? Aguero? Bale?
