The Manchester United thread 2006/2007 - featuring BBB leaving early

[ACou2000]

A good midfield line-up.

Better CL run.

Keeping Ruud and seeing him score another 20.

Win one of the "big 3" trophies.

O'Shea returning to greatness.

In that order.

Manchester United to sign England legend?

Former England and Stoke City star Sir Stanley Matthews, is believed to be on the verge of joining Manchester United.

The club is still in talks with God regarding the terms of his resurrection but it’s believed a deal can be brokered in time for the new season. The FA are expected to support the use of dead players and have also received a request from Manchester City to re-register Marc Vivien-Foe.

Seen as the ideal replacement for Cardiff bound Ronaldo Ronaldo, The Wizard of the Dribble has agreed a provisional 5 year contract brokered by Sir Matt Busby and Derek Acorah.

Despite being dead for nearly 6 years he’d be expected to provide stiff competition for the likes of Ryan Giggs. Sir Alex Ferguson is said to be too riddled with syphilis to comment but sources close to the drunken fool believe he plans to convert him to left back. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

*waits for olipepper to be outraged*

[ACou2000]

I'm gonna be in the minority on this one but I still wouldn't be against him staying.. not that I think players should be playing for us if they dont want to.. but simply because of the DIRE squad situation right now. A half arsed Ronaldo still >>> any other option we currently have quite frankly.

Also booing him is fs

Sounds more like an outreach program for the mentally handicapped if you ask me.

"It's only an hour a week, but Talking Tactics with Taz really makes me feel like I'm doing valuable work in the community. Seeing their little faces light up with glee when you suggest Smith, Rooney, Saha and Van Nistelrooy all up front makes the whole thing worthwhile."

You were the one who called me a hypocrite ffs </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

you called me a bitter.

and i only asked if you being a hypocrite. hence the question mark. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I said it was bitteresque behaviour. Obviously just a lapse. I'm fully aware how damaging actually accusing someone of actually being a bitter could be.

And I'd venture you were implying more than asking, given the attached quotes...

[ACou2000]

And I'm hardly the biggest fan of Fergie, especially given the last couple of years and now the Ruud episode, but I'm happy with the Carrick signing and it's promising at least that we're apparently looking for more.

[Saha]

Vicente's still there so I imagine he'll be on the right?

Vicente - Albelda - Fiore - Ronaldo

better than ours tbh

I think I have missed something like 3 home games all season in all competitions & I don't have a ticket
