Re: Tonight's football thread
Fergie is losing the plot. That's what happens when you start with a bunch of lightweights and geriatrics. He must be the only person in the world who thought that was the team for us to send out this evening.
Two blatant penalties denied, woodwork hit twice, van persie missing chances that jones would have scored... all a lovely smokescreen for the old codger.
Re: Tonight's football thread
We conceded 3 at home..
Horrid to see United fans turn on Fergie like this.. nothing new they did it in 2001 when we struggled and he showed he's still the boss.. he could get us relegated and I'd still back him..
A guy I knew stated we'd never win the league under Ferguson again after we lost to West Ham at home back then... yet a few years later he's jumping up and down celebrating titles and a european cup...
Without even mentioning the toys out of the pram incidents of 95? when Fergie got rid of Ince, Kanche, Hughes..

I love it Iain.
I wonder how many press conferences he'll storm out of this season when people ask him to justify why your season has fallen apart before new years day?
Re: Tonight's football thread
Its hardly anything too drastic... 4 years and its still tick tock.. you spend £100's of millions to beat us on goal difference.. I think people need a bit of caution.. we've been down before.. its September..
Aye.. change of heart.. just seen we are 4th.. 6 points from 12 games.. ahead of City.. 4 points of the title with 96 points to play for... its all over.. Fergie walk away..
Re: Tonight's football thread
Proper match on tomorrow dinner. We need a win :closed:

Worryingly, it seems you are right. It looks like GFH or its parent company is attempting to buy us. Talk of a Man U style buy out, where the debt for the purchase is somehow added to the clubs debt!! Not sure thats what we want!?

We definitely don't want that.
This article from the YEP confirms my suspicion of a few days ago that GFH are not in a strong financial position.

Re: Tonight's football thread
Well done Darren Bent at Villa today getting the equaliser. Class striker who should have started the game.
Re: Tonight's football thread
Tonight's football....or maybe not?!
"We knew there would be heavy rain but we could not 100% predict the downpour. We will have a pitch inspection to decide whether we postpone the game by an hour, to tomorrow or to whenever. At the moment it is not possible to close the roof because of the heavy rain and the wind. It might be possible.
"There is no need for people to be our working on the pitch. We have a heating system which, if we close the roof, can dry the pitch in 30 minutes. I know this situation is not very nice, but please wait until the inspection."
