you haven't seen a dip? what about the summer transfer activity?

oh yeah, we 'splashed out' on Carrick, my bad

[ACou2000]

I dont care really.. a Best/Charlton/Law statue will be fb.

[Mika]

It's like the Stretford End lettering I guess, nice even if the motives behind it aren't.

[ACou2000]

I'll give you a f**king dip... whoring out temporary season tickets to all and sundry so they can guarantee a few more quid in the bank before the season starts.. resulting in eff all chance of any normal "members" getting tickets.

[Nick OGS20]

yet more legends to look down proudly on the forecourt before games as the club desperately try to hawk more credit cards :*)

nah, i genuinely am quite happy about it, it's long overdue.

How much has Fergie bidded on Hargreaves? Torres? We'll see what happens in January, if nobody arrives then

how much has he bid on them? genuine question?

the answer is precisely zero btw, and that's straight from David Gill's mouth.

What? You tell us how much he bid, as far as i know he hasnt bid for either. In fact didnt it come out in the press that we didnt actually offer even a penny for Hargreaves.

The simple fact is any player purchases come out of the money made from player sales. We have made more money from player sales than we have spent.

I dont see us Splashing out to buy an Andy Cole, Rooney or Ferdinand. Making 2 or 3 big signings in a summer.

[ACou2000]

More chance of Fergie coming out of player retirement than us getting Torres

You never know, we might sell a Ronaldo or a Ferdinand in the near future to allow us to buy him.

[ACou2000]

tbh I can't see us selling any of our key players (that Fergie hasnt fallen out with) for a while yet.. but it is of course a possibility a bit further down the line if we're not reeling in the money/trophies

[gonch19]

wait and see - the mantra of the idiot

[Mika]

Fergie will fall out with somebody soon enough, you just know it

[Gazz22]

How can any United fan think the Glazers taking us over is a good thing? We've went from being the richest club in the world who could buy the likes of Rooney, Torres, etc at any time to being in tons of debt that only a "cunning plan" could ever get rid of.

Have we actually even spoken to Bayern about Owen ?

[gonch19]

haha we should do a sweepstake on who fergie falls out with next.

i say rio

[Mika]

I was thinking Rio too

[Mika]

Otherwise Bardsley/KR or something.

[ACou2000]

hopefully Queiroz

[Razor Eddie]

My boss today forbade me to take Monday off work.

He's a Chelsea fan, and wants to gloat big=stylee on Montag.

(Think not, though.)

[Taz & The Devil]

Did i imagine us having a Denis Law statue in the stretford end? Every paper i have read and even MUTV keep saying the only statue we have is of Sir Matt.

[Mika]

Although, tbh, quality >>>>>> quantity. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

"2-4-6-8, who do we appreciate?"

I was barely on OTF in August anyway since I was experiencing, em, 'career difficulties'. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

My 'quality >> quantity' comment was not in opposition to my heaps of posts during that period in case you've gotten the wrong idea there.

Sad to hear that snipes. Things sorted anois?

I know that was a joke but i'd fecking love it if we got Cole back. He might be well past being of any use but he was my favourite player during his stay.

[stripeylad]

Mart, I still have your number on my phone. I'm good like that. If you have the same number I can text you ?

I have two for Benfica btw

[BBB]

I have the same number mate but the abuse from Coldberg makes me not want to get him tickets

[Confused Clarity]

NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

[Mika]

Told you so.

[AndyPolack]

YNWA ftw.

[ACou2000]

ahaha what an abortion of a match

and I dont care how overused the term is

it was.

[ACou2000]

yeah take that page topper

we were ****ing useless tonight

[Taz & The Devil]

We have to stop these slow starts, we can never raise our game when we do and more often than not we end up needing to raise our game.

[Taz & The Devil]

And i thought Ronaldo was elected Penalty taker when Ruud left?

Anyway Saha to be taken off them because he goes to the same spot everytime with the same lazy arse side foot.

[Barnzy]

Popped in to say unlucky - you wernt the best but played better than celtic. And Saha is a useless lazy bar steward

[something less annoying]

Placing penalties is **** FACT

[Taz & The Devil]

"You werent the best", What?

[Warren28]

You lot so screwed. Hope you can get a result against Benfica, good luck you'll need it. You'll win on Sunday mid.

[James M]

i hope saha gets raped

[pjburrage]

Going to stay away from the match thread, as its just going to be a ridiculous farce with the reaction of 'Neutrals' and certain United fans.

[batch]

comiserations bhoys. I'm sure you'll still make it through though

[BBB]

iirc we'll win Sunday.

FACT

[matt_e]

Hands up who had 'that feeling' for the penalty?

[Barnzy]
