pinched from Red News, interesting news about the reserves...

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> [29] Letter to Red News

Monday, July 17, 2006

For those who care...

....about the Reserve team - something I care about very, very deeply.

We have gone from 28 games last year (League) to 18 this season. I bet Glazer/Gill/Othertwats are thrilled to bloody bits. Less (free for us) games at Hyde for them to pay for.

In the season before (2004/4) we had 50 Reserve teams games.

Those complete **** who now have total control (ie they no longer have to face us at an AGM) can do what they want. What they really want is to get rid of the Reserves totally. Let's face it the Reserves are only for 'sad b*stards' like me and don't offer them any lets-sell-some-fred-the-bloody-red-duvet-covers' opportunities.

18 games? How rubbish. Absolutely no point keeping anyone with any kind of potential at the club now, because that's not enough of a season to aid anyone's development. Loans galore methinks, which I'm sure suits the Glazers down to the ground.

Anyone heard anything about tomorrow's friendly being in doubt due to security fears?

Just never gets going for me. Click the play button and it says 'media opening' for a few minutes, then says 'ready' upon which i press play again and it does the same thing. irritating. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

What version of Windows media player are you using? As it needs to confirm the licsense with the PC you're using.

You get the feeling the Carrick thing was announced at the same time as Ruud leaving to make us take the focus off the fact one of our best strikers has left. A positive spin on it I guess. DOesn't really work though. I couldn't care that we signed a midfielder. Ruud is gone icon_frown.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

like I said, lad...£15m for carrick is depressing and seems like overspending. carrick for ruud + £5m seems like a right sensible buy.

Well, I have survived the night.

yesterday was interesting, got lost in the monsoon, and thought "wtf am i doing here?" so many times. 5 people asked me for directions, including a fit scouse girl who was my ageish, which is cool. i sent everyone but her in the wrong direction.

The tram was a bloody nightmare, took me 30 minutes and two different journeys to finally get on the right one to mart's, and then once there keith tried to send us through the windscreen of his car. went to see snakes on a plane which, quite frankly, rules beyond belief. oh, and nancy from peep show <3.

Now just to avoid getting too bored over the next 3 hours, not even the newsagents is open yet ffs

We have just over 60+ hours till the transfer windows, IF he doesn't sign, then we've spent £4m this summer, so much for "omgz there is no such thing as a budget" we've watched Arsenal/Liverpool strengthen.

David Gill, 15th January 2006:

"We will also be making one or two very big signings in the summer.

"The players we want are playing in the Champions League so we will have to wait."

Who are they David? Carrick? Kooshack? afaik, they don't have Champions League experience, funny thing is, the ***** will think "ah well, we tried" and we're stuck with ****ing O'Shea in midfield when Carrick/Scholes get injured

hoo-****ing-ray </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

That's why you don't ever get your hopes up about United in respect of transfers or results.

So it's your own fault icon_smile.gif

If we're that worried about possession against Chelsea, lets come too an arrangement with Bayern. They release Hargreaves on a free, we sign him on a free so he can play agianst Chelsea, then in January give Bayern 35m for Lahm (which includes 15-20m for Hargreaves) </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Another left back? Brilliant. icon_biggrin.gif We're running a little short...

Not exactly certain what part you think tactics play if it isn't to win games.

You're blatantly referring to the weststandred debacle.

the amount he's bitched and whined in papers since leaving pretty much an insight into just how insufferable he must have been post carling cup final, so he has himself to blame if true that he really didnt want to leave. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

How dare he answer questions put to him, such a disgrace.

Fergie not playing him in the Carling Cup final was a complete and utter joke and if I were Ruud, I bet I'd have reacted in exactly the same way, the treatment of him was ridiculous.
