Tonight's football thread

Iain lad we have already explained this to you. The United fans of 1974 were football fans and no doubt you will still have a hard core that will stick with United through thick and thin but you are saddled with a generation who only support United because of their almost constant success, they are not football fans as we used to know them and they will be off quick style as it all goes tits up.

Good riddance to them. I've been saying that for years when people were calling for Fergie's head around 2006

7m less than fellaini and 2m more than ashley young.


Just saying like


After tonight I think we might be beginning to gain a bit of an aura of invincibility which means plenty of teams are half beaten before they even get on the pitch.

United had it once but gave it away cheaply this season.

I really hope United beat Sunderland it would make for an amazing final.

[The General]

With the situation looming large of United failing to reach the top 4 in the league, beating Sunderland would take us on to a league cup final which now looks like being against the bitter blue noses. Which would mean, win or lose, there's a very good chance we'll end up in the Europa league next season.

With that being said, I think I would rather we just went out against Sunderland and saved ourselves the arse ache of the Europa league and an inevitable thrashing in a wembley final off City?

It could be worse we could be west ham

[Danbert Nocurry]

Love that Dunkirk spirit, General.

You want to lose to Sunderland so as to avoid playing us in the final. Bloody hell, how times have changed.

[Carlos the Jackal]

It could be worse we could be west ham.
Richard, what people have to remember a lot of united fans were born under sir Alex rule and know nothing of the glorious reign of Dave sexton, who united sacked unjustly. My best days, my best utd team and manager were spent on the scoreboard padock watching them. Can todays fans tell me where that place was.

[Danbert Nocurry]

I think you're stuck with Moyes, Carlos.

Ferguson and Charlton have laid their cards on the table by running their mouths before a ball was kicked this season with their "oh we give managers loads of time here at United, we don't sack people" etc etc etc.

They've made a rod for their own back. The glazers won't interfere with the football side of things as they leave all of that to Ferguson.

It just doesnt happen.. you lose a few, not many.. look at Liverpool..

Sorry did I see Danbert talking about quality of buys.... I dont think we should list the 508 million spent for 1 title...

[Richard Head]

United have announced that tickets for the next three home games are on open sale, no need to be a member or go into a ballot, just give them a ring with your credit card number and the tickets are yours
