6 assists in the league, with just two players in the Premiership assisting more than him. Lazy or brilliant?
Tickets Prices: The facts MUST will be presenting today
December 10, 2008 25 Comments
In 1960 you could pay 12p on the gate to get in to Old Trafford and purchase a programme for 2p. Those were the days, the old fellas at the pub will tell you, when you could show up on the day and squeeze yourself in to one of the stands. Things have changed considerably [...]
Our Tougher Fixtures… Compared To Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool
November 22, 2008 25 Comments
Sir Alex Ferguson was talking about the league fixtures handicapping us this week, looking at the difficult games we’ve been forced in to playing so early on in the season. Of course, the other side of this is that we’ll have an easier second half of the season, but by which point, we could be [...]
Hull Away Fans, Berbatov and Losing The Second Half
November 1, 2008 16 Comments
My observations from today’s game are as follows: 1. Hull City’s away support is the best we’ve had so far. 2. Dimitar Berbatov was worth every penny. 3. Why can’t we maintain dominance in two halves?
Wayne Rooney’s Record Should Be Better
October 22, 2008 14 Comments
Wayne Rooney is enjoying fabulous form for Manchester United, as he usually he does during this time of year. Whilst his goals are an obvious indicator of his great form, and what is picked up in the press, it’s his all-round game which I’m most impressed with. He’s at the centre of everything, the Midas [...]
Stats To Prove United Are The Best
October 7, 2008 11 Comments
Ok ok, ‘we don’t need stats to prove that’ I hear you cry, and I agree with you. We can just look at our trophy cabinet if clarification of our greatness is required, but go with me on this one. I like a good old statistic, particularly the ones the commentators drag up during a [...]
Manchester IS Red… Even City Fans Agree
October 6, 2008 20 Comments
It’s funny how this myth goes around that Manchester is a City supporting location. Mancunians opt to support the blues, whilst United fans claim their fanbase from the home counties. Of course, this is perfect logic, isn’t it? One of the most widely supported clubs in the World couldn’t possible appeal to people from Manchester, [...]
Well That’s More Like It… Our Fixtures Compared to Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool
October 1, 2008 17 Comments
There we have it, United’s first good performance of the season matched with the goals it deserves. United beat Aalborg 3-0 away from home, converting three of the eight chances on goal, which certainly beats the one goal from open play in sixteen shots on target against Bolton. This is more like it. Of course, [...]
Chelsea’s Cry Baby Starting To Sound Desperate
August 13, 2008 14 Comments
Whilst John Terry will certainly still be feeling the weight of responsibility for his team’s failure, I don’t think that quite excuses the lunacy of his recent statements. Last week, Terry was claiming that United have peaked. Now, this can be forgiven I suppose. He’s ranting and trying to lift the confidence of his team [...]
United Will Finish 2nd, Chelsea Will Finish 1st
August 12, 2008 33 Comments
Last season, United were some way short of what I’d expect of a team filled with the ability it has. Despite adding Owen Hargreaves, Carlos Tevez, Anderson and Nani to what was already a Championship winning side, we finished 2 points behind our total from the season before. Even with all the goals Ronaldo scored, [...]
Had John Terry Not Slipped, United Wouldn’t Have Won The European Cup
August 6, 2008 13 Comments
If I got a pound for every time I read rival fans on this blog write, “United only won the European Cup because John Terry slipped”, I’d be a very rich man indeed. As is part and parcel of football support in this country, your success will always be undermined by your rivals. I remember [...]
United At Their Peak? Is Chelsea’s Terry Really That Thick?
August 5, 2008 10 Comments
Whatever happens in the future, whether we end up like Leeds or simply can’t hack it at the top once Sir Alex Ferguson leaves, whether Roman Abramovich hires all the best coaches in the World or spends £100s of millions on the greatest players to ensure superiority in England and Europe, John Terry will always [...]
“Where Will All The Goals Come From?” Ruud… now Ronaldo
August 4, 2008 13 Comments
United had just finished second in the Premiership and won the League Cup. It was our most successful season since winning the title in 2003, and whilst still some way off our high expectations, at least we could finally believe we were getting there. However, our top scorer, Ruud van Nistelrooy, was certainly on the [...]
Alan Smith’s First Year Away – Did Fergie Ruin Him?
August 4, 2008 2 Comments
Alan Smith quickly won over the Old Trafford crowd, despite his Leeds United roots. In fact, it was probably the fact that he had grown up loving Leeds, yet was able to play his heart out for us, that warmed us to him. See, we all remembered Smithy as that Leedscum youngster who came to [...]
It’s Chelsea’s ‘Chopper’ Talking Out Of His Backside…Not Fergie!
July 24, 2008 10 Comments
Sir Alex Ferguson clearly put a few Chelsea noses out of joint with his recent comments about their ageing squad. Whilst Scolari managed to resist taking the bait, Ron ‘Chopper’ Harris couldn’t help himself. He launched a scathing attack on our boss, claiming that Ferguson was ‘talking out of his backside’. Clearly Harris missed the [...]
