All these Manchester United fans shouting out for them to take on Saint Ole as their manager are now regretting their choice, turns out he’s less idea & inspiration than David Moyes.
Fucked up their chances of Champions league football next year, stuck with players on very expensive contracts who they can’t offload, disgruntled fans talking about destroying their season tickets, no longer favoured by bent refs, I bet these fans will go back to supporting their other clubs.

Might just put a bet on them to be relegated next season.:)

I'll take that relegation bet Derek.

You can't back out now as you will look like a total knob.

I've never really understood the fixation that a lot of supporters have with other teams. I'm more interested in what my team are doing (unfortunately at the moment).

Don't get me wrong, I don't want Liverpool to win The Premier League, but I still want to beat City on Wednesday even though that would hand it on a plate to Liverpool. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

Absolutely not bothered when City win anything - it doesn't count as far as I am concerned, same as Chelsea. Anyone can lob a couple of billion at a club and succeed, can't see any glory in that. Especially when the money is at best dodgy. Shame UEFA don't grow a pair and sort out what is going on under FFP. why can everyone else see it, but they can't?

as an Everton fan I am well happy :aaaaa:
You should be ashamed of them - rolled over and had their tummy rubbed against Fulham last week,, played like lunatics yesterday!! Entirely predictable.

There ia only one team in Manchester and they wear sky blue. (and I speak as a City fan of 55 years man and boy so I have seen the tough times as well.

At least Liverpool are making a fight of the title run in this year and whilst you can spend what you like on players, spending billions does not guarantee success, although it does help, the money has to be spend on the right players.

City have brought the right blend to make a team I am proud of and is certainly challending my favourite all time team of the late 60's and early 70's with Bell, Summerbee and Lee along with Mick Doyle, Alan Oakes, Glynn Pardoe, Joe Corrigan, Tommy Booth, Neil Young and then later the likes of Rodney Marsh.

Looking at the Premier League table and the gap between 6th and 7th I'm of the opinion that it's just a means of getting the same teams into the European competitions each year. It's an upward spiral for the few and an eternal struggle for the rest. The same can be said for the rest of Europe judging by the makeup of the Champions League every year.

Well, I’m a Cardiff City fan and know nothing other than pain and frustration. However, I am at least grateful to have seen my team in the top flight on two occasions in my 51 years, even if I had to wait 46 years to see it happen. It would be nice if we could last more than one season though; I’m not asking to win the league or anything, just survival.

What goes around Derek......

Did you hear the (mighty) Brentford fans singing 'Leeds have bottled it again' last night?

I would love to know who all these United fans are who regret wanting Ole appointed and are talking about destroying their season tickets.

Much work to be done, no doubt. Again.......

Sadly I think Bosman is slowly eating away at the game at the top level...players have all the power, plenty happy to jog around in the reserves for a silly salary.

Seen & heard the Brentford fans, can’t knock them for telling the truth, clear penalty claim avoided by the ref despite it being right in front of him, may have changed the game or it may not, we will not go up via play offs, we never do.

I saw that penalty shout and I don’t think I’ve seen many clearer cut penalties. Must have had the same crap officials that we had against Chelsea.

I’m glad United got hammered at Everton. At least Ole will (hopefully) now have a very good idea of who to get rid of. Phil Jones and Alexis Sanchez should be top of the list, closely followed by Pogba if he doesn’t pull his finger out. De Gea needs to make his mind up what he wants to do as rumours of Real Madrid seem to be distracting him. They don’t need a replacement either, not with Sergio Romero as No.2.

I’d like to see Leeds back in the Premiership.

No doubt the ref had been bribed Derek?:rolleyes:

While I agree it was a penalty if the Leeds player hadn't thrown himself to the ground he might well have got it. Exactly the same thing in the Chelsea game last night. Not a lot of sympathy from me.

Villa look like a short odds bet for the play offs - almost always the same every year...a team comes on a late run at the right time without anyone noticing and wins the play offs.

I agree about Romero. Personally I think he hasn't moved on as he expects to be the number one at some point. De Gea has been brilliant but I always think if a player wants to go/'won't sign a new contract cash them in before,Bosman shafts you. Nobody bigger than the club.

The only issue I have with Sanchez is the wages - he has been disappointing on the whole but flashes of the magic are there. He has been injured more or less since signing, I would persevere, there is a top quality player in there. And he is one who fights for every blade of grass, regardless of how his form is.

I too would like to,see,Leeds back in The Premiership, but would prefer to see Villa and a few others ahead of them.
