Best? Ronaldo? Charlton? Cantona? Who Is The Greatest Ever United Player?

Manchester United fans have been lucky enough to see many great players over the years, who’d all rank highly amongst the greatest ever players in the World.

The Capello Factor: What’s up with Rooney?

Ever since Wayne Rooney emerged on to the football scene as a teenager there has been a lot of hype surrounding him. It started with the Everton fans. They might remember a cheeky 11 year old ball boy who chipped Neville Southall in the warm up before the Merseyside derby back in 1996, who went [...]

Ferguson Wondering About FA Cup Fix

It was announced earlier this week that Manchester United were drawn to play second place Arsenal in the 5th Round of the FA Cup. As I wrote about, Manchester United are drawn against top flight opposition more often than not, with 77% of our FA Cup draws over the past ten years coming against Premiership [...]

Vidic: The Best Goal I Have Ever Seen Live

Nemanja Vidic returned to the United team after a virus kept him out of our FA Cup victory over Spurs at the weekend. With thirteen minutes played, he ensured that United kept up their brilliant defensive record in the league, which boasts just three goals conceded at home, and was witness to a brilliant goal.
Cristiano Ronaldo [...]

Liverpool? City? Or United? Munich Memorial Picture Vandalised

Whilst the Munich memorial picture which hangs from the East Stand is less than perfect, with the words originally printed incorrectly and an AIG logo situated at the bottom, there is no doubting it is an impressive site. With the 50th anniversary of the tragedy approaching, much of the red focus is on our players [...]

You Believe Evra Wants £120k A Week? Really??

“Liverpool and Arsenal are great clubs but United is a completely different story. Inter were also trying to get me in the transfer window but there was only one club for me,” Patrice Evra said, after signing for Manchester United for £5.5 million back in 2006. It has been a long journey for Evra, which [...]

United ALWAYS Get The Tough Draw…Unlike Chelsea and Liverpool

After United were drawn against Arsenal in the 5th Round of the FA, I was curious to see just how many times we’ve had to play Premiership opposition over recent years. It feels as though we always get the tough draws and I wanted to see how true that intuition was.
It turned out to be rather [...]

Good ol Reverse Psychology – Ronaldo Wont Get 30

Ferguson called off his annual goal tally bet with our Portuguese winger this season, saying “I will not be attempting to bet anything with Cristiano this season unless it is 50 goals,” he laughed. “Somehow I don’t think he would accept that.”
Just over half way through the season, with Ronaldo enjoying the form he is, [...]

FA Backtrack Over Minute’s Silence

There has been a lot of fuss surrounding the 50th Anniversary of the Munich Air Disaster, with it emerging some fans will find it too much of a temptation to sing sick songs during a moment of silent time for reflection. A couple of weeks ago, the FA announced that there would not be a [...]

United ALWAYS Get The Tough Draw…Unlike Arsenal

The news that United were facing Arsenal in the 5th Round of the FA Cup was met with a cheer over at RoM. If you want to show yourself as the best, then you have to beat the best of the rest, and with the home advantage, I really fancy taking on the Gooners.
I’ve said [...]

Take Note Arsenal – Old Trafford Is A Fortress Again

It was a rather sickening feeling watching the Spurs fans go mental after Robbie Keane netted for the travelling team yesterday. As it was a Cup game, there were even more away fans than usual, overspilling in to the upper regions of the East stand. It was starting to look as though they had been [...]

Banter At Old Trafford

The quality of away fans we have at Old Trafford is usually pretty poor, with them usually all falling some way short of the impressive support United take with them on the road.
Our Old Trafford fans could sing for half an hour non-stop, but the moment a song finishes, the unimaginative away support, who will [...]

Patrice Evra – You Had a Mare!

Patrice Evra has easily been in our top three most consistent performers so far this season. He has certainly pulled his weight in our exceptional defence, but has added significantly to our attack as well. Since his derby day debut nightmare, he has gone from strength to strength, and shown himself as arguably the best [...]

Oh Bryan Robson Is Still A Manc

Manchester City bombed out of the FA Cup earlier this evening, after losing 2-1 away to Sheffield United. Bryan Robson was critical of his team following their defeat to rivals Sheffield Wednesday last weekend, leading fans to be rather more critical off him. On the radio before the FA Cup game today, several Sheffield United [...]
