The banter between United and City fans is something I enjoy immensely. Insults and digs are exchanged between both sets of fans in regards to what has (and hasn’t) been won, the players on the pitch and results from the past. Ryan Giggs, a player who most fans find rather inoffensive, is a source of [...]
Earlier in the week I gave a quick update on the recent developments of the ‘Holy Trinity’ statue, in honour of Denis Law, George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton. Today the statue has been unveiled, taking price of place opposite the ground, directly in front of Sir Matt Busby’s statue. The timing is rather fitting, [...]
The FA are an organisation I’ve been quick to criticise of a number of occasions. Their inconsistency is infuriating, particularly considering it is usually United on the receiving end of their unjust punishments. From Rio Ferdinand’s drugs ban to Gary Neville’s fine, the FA just love making an example out of United. So when United [...]
Paul Scholes, one of the most naturally gifted players the English natural team has had the privilege of having play for them, particularly in recent years, retired from international football four years ago. Whilst publicly he put the decision down to his desire to focus on United and his family, it is commonly believed Sven [...]
The battle between Real Madrid over Cristiano Ronaldo has probably barely even begun. Every summer the same rumours arise, linking our young Portuguese winger to the club. After a threat of being reported to FIFA, Real Madrid have taken a step back, claiming they are not trouble makers, and will leave Ronaldo alone. Real Madrid [...]
The England national team take on USA tonight for a friendly match staged at Wembley Stadium. The event will see the reunion of the English United and Chelsea players who battled it out in the European Cup final a week ago today. This meeting could have been extremely painful for our lads if the result [...]
Manchester United sold Gerard Pique back to his former club, Barcelona, this week, ending what was a rather disappointing time at United. Whilst Pique got to share in the joy of winning the league and European Cup double, he did so knowing he hadn’t really left his mark on the club this season. He scored [...]
After his incredible season, we had to know there was going to be no escaping the transfer rumours linking Cristiano Ronaldo with Real Madrid. Both the club and the player haven’t helped to squash the speculation, with both seemingly having something to say about the issue every other day. So yesterday, United decided to take [...]
United fans are lucky to have several matches to choose from as “the greatest ever”. The ones that tend to rank most highly are the ones where we should have been well and truly beaten, but somehow managed to come back and win. In 1999, we saw several games like this, with the games against [...]
Following United’s victory against Chelsea in the European Cup final last week, work has begun on the statue to honour George Best, Denis Law and Sir Bobby Charlton, who won the first European Cup with United in 1968. So far, only the stand has been constructed, but later in the week, the final statue is [...]
Patrice Evra had played in a Champions League final before last Wednesday, however then was on the losing side. Jose Mourinho’s Porto beat Monaco 3-0 and it is a night that has stayed with Evra ever since. Since lifting the trophy last week, Evra has spoken at his great joy about being a European Cup [...]
As John Terry walked towards the penalty spot last Wednesday, everything I’d been hoping for the past nine years, particularly this past season, seemed to be rapidly slipping away. Aside from wanting to the win the European Cup for the typical reasons any fan wants to see their team win it, we felt as though [...]
Oliver Holt, the journalist for The Mirror who has won Sports Writer of the Year on two occasions, is believed to be a bitter blue. The Manchester man started his career at the Liverpool Echo and has spouted rubbish about United ever since. His write ups on United, particularly during the 2005 period, when apparently [...]
You would think we’d be used to it by now, the rumours that surface every time the transfer window is close to opening, but every year it takes me by surprise. There aren’t enough superlatives to describe what a fantastic season Cristiano Ronaldo has just had for us. Including his goal in the European Cup [...]
