    i agreed with most of the article about tevez but when he did first come from west ham and was playing regular alongside roony i thought it was a good partnership and that year did get his fair share of goals.
    we all know its a small % of players that come through the ranks and make the first team at utd but unless you give them a chance in different situations how do you find out,what makes me laugh about most of these talking heads none of them were good enough to make the grade but all are experts its a joke.
    i think nani is gone its just a matter of when

  2. mctavish says:

    Hey great to be back on ROM!:-) it actually makes me annoyed saying this bcos i love this blog so much that sometimes i don’t have time for it. it’s a stop and start situation. although i’ll make sure i have enough time for it!:-) about richards rumour it’s rubbish. even rafael is better at right back. don’t want that bitter blue at OT.
    Can’t wait to see ljajic in a united shirt. he seems to be a real talent. I agree with the Daily Mail cuntevez is rubbish and i never doubted fergie when he decided to release that cunt. i think that even ngog has scored more goals than him. so much for the bitter cunts at wasteland drawing 7 consecutive times and the usual deluded ABU media hailing shitty for having world class players but drawing at home to burnley. they’re a bunch of overrated twats and particularly a face i’d like to smack would be bellamy i loathe that cunt. for all their beautiful football the arsewipes could’nt beat chelski and wenger looked clueless and only complained. they only were praised for beating bottom placed sides but could’nt beat any team in the top ten apart from everton and tottenham if i’m not wrong. i’m also sick of that cunt terry talking about team spirit. those cunts from london are highly overrated and only know how to do one thing oh wait two play dirty and anti football. i don’t care if people say about not playing well and grinding results those cunts have been poor and overrated after beating sides like hull and bolton yet we battered them in their own back yard. i won’t mention the dippers as they have been piss poor with and without stevie me and ladyboy while the arsewipes as proven evident yesterday are toothless.

    Love the part where fergie says these ABU journo’s in a few years will be holding cap in hand and asking for interviews yet they’re critising them. i’m not sure fergie will sell nani in january as his little stint being left out and sitting on the bench as a way of punishment and making sure that you never say those kind of things in the media with regards to fergie knowing that the ABU media want nothing but united’s demise. fergie knows very well nani is talented but his mishap would be his decision making in the hope that nani will learn from players like valencia, obertan, sir ryan giggs etc.
    Sorry guys i know some of you guys might go on red rants and i’m sorry to say this but i fucking sick of the fans there they fucking slag united off the players and most sickening fergie. those people don’t deserve to be united fans and are a clueless bunch of glory hunters, well most of them not all of them. GROGNARD is the biggest cunt.that guy is fucking UNBELIEVABLE!!!
    another thing guys is biram diouf at OT? think i heard someone say so. just want some clarity.
    GHTT
    are the villa and silva rumours true mate? are they going to come in january?:-l

  6. jellybean says:

    @ ghtt- hahahaha! emily looks like she takes almost as much amusement at the rest of us at the dippers’ misery. i showed my liverpool-lover friend this video and the stevie me one, and he thinks she’s adorable lol. lol, i was talking to him about pool being in the europa league, and he reckons its a top competition…i mean sure, there are some good teams playing in the europa league, but given that they’re so proud of their 5 european cups and don’t really care much about that “treble” they won, even they know it can’t be held in as high esteem as the champions league!

    was very amused by the daily mail article. as always fergie proved to everyone he knows best :)

  7. Gotta hate tiny tears says:

    Martin Samuel wrote what I said a little over a year ago and what Scott wrote about not too long after, and I don’t get any money for my brain. Where the justice. Jelly bean thank you.

  8. Ulster Red says:

    “With all due respect to Owen Hargreaves, he is hardly the second coming, is he? Since being in England, he has given us only about one good game in four, and his performance in the Bundesliga was hardly any better. He has acquired a totally undeserved reputation for infallibility, during his convalescence. I’m afraid he may prove a huge disappointment to us, on his return to action.”

    not my words but some guy on the times, just thought id post it here for a good laugh!! the guy is clueless

  9. Gotta hate tiny tears says:

    Told off by sir Alex and banned from having bebo or myspace pages , some players don’t seem to know it’s a complete ban as we’d brown has a facebook page with over 600 mostly female friends on it, from a page 3 model in jakki degg to bottom of the barrel big brother failure and sex offender sezer yurtseven

  10. five says:

    GHTT mate can ye link me?

  11. Drew Vader says:

    Micah Richards?? No f’ing thanks

    Rafael is 18 for fucks sake! Give him some time

  12. adamo167 says:

    How about ljajic’s strike. Wazza-esque. He’ll be a welcomed addition come january.

  13. King Eric says:

    Is it me or are even the dippers fans jumping on the Rentboys wagon? Just heard that daft fucking voiced cunt Tony Evans from I think the Times on Talkshite saying that the Chav’s will win the league by a good 10-15 points. Wait for it. The dippers will come second as United are “poor” now without Ronaldo. Are these “experts” actually paid for this shit? The thought of United winning four on the trot is just too much to take for the abu’s. John Cross from the rag the mirror reckons Chelsea are just too “powerful” for anyone to touch them. He also reckons that Citeh will be in the top 4!! Getting sick of hearing how powerful they are. What does it mean anyway? It ain’t just about how powerful you are but the type of football you play and for me United on the day are still the best by a country mile. Nice one touch football but can mix it when needed. They are that powerful that their midfield are still in Fletch, Ando’s and Carricks pocket. It is getting fucking silly now this Chelsea love in. It’s moved from the dippers pre season, to Arsenal 3 weeks ago now the Chav’s. Surprising that United are never talked about in this way. Our lads just go about their business with no fuss unlike the rentboy cunts. Every man and his dog has come out this week saying how “the team spirit is great” and “we will win the league”. We will see in May but I still believe this will be a record season for Fergie, Giggsy and United. 19 and 4 on the spin.

  14. Jandsdad says:

    @ drew vader

    just what i was thinking. If you want to see the prime example of a young footballer let his personal successes go to his head it’s Micah Richards.

    Re the Times column, kay talks some bollocks by saying he would play gerrard @ right back instead of the neviller, then he says he would prefer lumpard over the ginger prince he is simply an abu twat

  15. King Eric says:

    I echo others comments on here. Really excited about Ljijac’s arrival. Looks a top top prospect.

  16. Jandsdad says:

    @ King Eric

    I have decided to stop listening to talk shite and five live(rpool) anymore its just a cockney/scouse love in everyday.
    It is comical how hypocritical these tossers are.

  17. King Eric says:

    Is this a joke? This ain’t a United fan who wrote this. Most United fans want the waiter to stay.

    http://timesonline.typepad.com/fanzine_fanzone/2009/11/manchester-united-benitez-exit-would-be-music-to-our-ears.html

  18. King Eric says:

    jandsdad – I know mate, it has become a piss take. Most people will be wondering why the fuck I listen to it when I get so riled. It is for exactly this reason I DO listen to it.

  19. Ulster Red says:

    im liking the rumours goin about regarding villa and silva, not getting my hopes up just yet tho, them 2 wud be imense in our side!

  20. Gabriel says:

    @ King Eric,

    Just watching a clip of his on the tube and he does look promising. Wonder which position he’d play, as he looks quite versatile in attacking positions.

  21. HARGREAVES' CURLY HAIR says:

    Guys those fucking rentboys will be shown as a mediocre side who can’t play football and is only praised as “powerful” mainly for the season that they have many internationals. their team is full of cunts and dirty rugby tacklers who know nothing but cheating and diving! honestly most teams play better football than those mafia!
    king eric mate i agree on their day united is the best and can beat any team in the country convincingly and in style. we certainly shouldn’t be written off those who dare and insist those anti football hooligans down in london are too powerful should ask kevin keegan with newcastle in the 1995-96 season where united cut a 12 point lead by the geordies to win the league! oh i know that people always talk about barca and their football but honestly if united play the fast paced type of footbal like in the premier league we can certainly beat barca and any team in europe with vintage united!
    guys remember that guy we were linked with pre season DODO?
    is that guy still going to come next year february cos i have’nt heard nothing from him since or his representatives.:-l

  22. Gotta hate tiny tears says:

    This time last year Chelsea were 5 points clear of united

  23. Bebeto says:

    Chelsea are annually deemed to be an unstoppable entity. They were just that this season, prior to the Wigan game. Heck, the media’s come full circle, forgetting all about those two losses to their name.

    We now have to endure talk about Ancelotti being a genius, the cohesion at Chelsea, Terry’s Alexander-like leadership, how Drogba and Anelka’s partnership will solve global warming, etc.

    We can’t help the short-sightedness of the media. A couple of weeks ago, Arsenal were ready to mature into the side every fan of theirs persistently promises us.

    Writing about Tevez, I liked Martin Samuel’s observation: “Ferguson who suffered plenty of lip from Manchester United supporters mistaking Tevez’s perspiration for inspiration.”

  24. Larry David says:

    Oliver Kay putting Stevie G-string at right-back for the sake of fitting him in! Arf! Here’s a better Premier League team of the decade:

    E. van der Sar
    G. Neville
    R. Ferdinand
    J. Terry
    A. Cole
    C. Ronaldo
    P. Scholes
    F. Lampard
    R. Giggs
    W. Rooney
    T. Henry

Just heard that daft fucking voiced cunt Tony Evans from I think the Times on Talkshite saying that the Chav’s will win the league by a good 10-15 points. Wait for it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~

    Laughable! If United are poor, what does that make his beloved Liverpool? Don’t tell me he’s written off the mighty Redmen already? He was no doubt tipping them for “number 19″ in August, along with a lot of other journos. Bunch of twats.

  26. Gee says:

    Im glad the press, the shitty fans and the rest of the world have woke up to Tevez, Ive always said stamina of a stallion, touch of a rapist!!

    Cant wait for Ljijac’s arrival, Im expecting big things from this lad!!

    Bebeto, lovin the Drogba, Anelka qoute!! classic!! Chelski are getting as carried away with all the hype as the press, thinkin they are the best team in the world, and it will cost them big time, we will catch them and push clear of them by mid Feb!! In Fergie we trust!!

  27. theres only one Keano says:

    King Eric
    hes pethetic tony evans I cant stand the guy last year he was bragging how crap united were last year despite united winning 4 trophys its 5 pt gap jes united are still the holders of the league where is the credit there, and most of the media jurnos wanking over chelsea because their fav team arsenal were beaten easily. its like did united drop pts or something I tell you something if united win this league I hope fergie throws it in their faces never write united off. hmm lets think where are essien drogba kalou going oh yea african nations cup. chelseas midfield is so good lampards 32 ballacks 33 their other midfielders are not much better, without essien that midfield is waiting to collapse.

    what did fletcher anderson and carrick do exactly to that midfield outclassed them when united should have had a pen, chelsea goal should have been dissallowed drogba was offside and he fouled brown. hey king eric what exactly did durham and the other idiot say say. in 06/07 season despite united looking far better playing great football they still were wanking over chelsea and even arsenal its a joke. oh yea they hyped chelsea and arsenal in 07/08 and the next great thing phil scolari in aug 2008.

    HARGREAVES’ CURLY HAIR
    told you about redrants GROGNARD is pethetic thats why he is canadian.

  28. Jandsdad says:

    @ King Eric

    I stopped listening to them after i caught myself shouting @ the radio that they were a bunch of wankers.
    Worst offender is the “dogger” on talkshite. If you listen to him for any longer than 43mins u can be classed as medically insane.

  29. mancstan says:

    Well fuck me, someone in the press saying fergie was correct in his assesment of Tevez.

    At the time it was all how we had lost our ability to keep worlclass players, blah, blah.

    And how can Hughes drop him as he left us because he wasnt played enough.

    Fuck, he siad he would have won us the champs league if he had started that day.

    Not won the bitters too many has he??

  30. King Eric says:

    Jandsdad – Yeah spot on pal. Collybore is a fucking disgrace. You can practically smell his bitterness over the airwaves. He is the most opiniated twat I have ever had the displeasure to listen to. He even gets AGGRESSIVE if he doesn’t agree with the caller. Saggers even has to tell him to be quiet.

    theres only one keano – Durham is STILL wanking over the rentboys. So is Jamie Redknapp. He reckons they have it all.

  31. theres only one Keano says:

    King Eric
    I hope you can respond to this and I hope scott the red points these facts out. people should be totaly buzzing in the position we are in and we should be in better position. it could be worse when I point these facts out.

    united have lost ronaldo.
    to a lesser extent tevez.
    thats 41 goals lost if you take ronaldos 26 and tevez 15 in all compititons.
    we have had ferdinand injured nearly all the time and looking poor, and we have had to get away with foster who has looked poor at times with a depleted defence.
    van der saar has been out a good phew months of the season.
    vidic at times does not look great and has been injured also.
    evans has been injured half the time.
    brown and o shea have been in and out of the team.
    carrick has looked poor and in shock over the barca loss.
    anderson has been so inconsistant
    scholes has been poor and coming to the end of his career.
    hargreaves has still not returned.
    valencia owen and obertan we have had to bed in.
    nani has been average and moaning.
    park has been injured a good phew months of the season.
    berbatov has been ok and has been picking up injurys.

    if the spelling is bad ppl sorry, well you look at these facts add the fact the gap should be smaller, yet it is december and we are not far off from the so called greatest side in the world, we should be so proud of the team that we have lost the worlds greatest talent add our depleted defence, midfield, and attack and we are still in every compition, its about time people give credit to united. but yet we still hear twats go on and on and on about ronaldo ronaldo ronaldo I am sick of it. and that cunt tony evans who has lost all crediblility to say liverpool will finish second when they could not finish above united last year with a better team, united will have to go on an insanly bad run to let liverpool in which will never happen, or the bitter pricks, or plastic united fans saying this is the demise of united yet we are second ahead of this so called next generation of arsenal youngsters. again if the spellings bad sorry about that I am so angry still over the weekeed and we won 4 1.

  32. Ashish says:

    That Studs Up article was hilarious !
    I hope that Nani stays.His problem is psychological.It would be a real shame if he left.Fergie is human and prone to mistakes and he is definitely making a mistake with Nani and Anderson to a smaller extent.If Nani left,he’d most definitely fulfil the potential which has always been within him at some other club instead of Fergie mismanaging it.

  33. Mozza79 says:

    I didn’t see any trouble between the Red Star and Partizan fans I only saw a seat on fire.

  34. Ownershit group says:

    The Gods offer clues about the ownershit group. Not having any blacks working in-house was a clue not only did these proprietors have a family history against blacks but they also have a personal history in a prior life!!! Also, the “romance” event was a clue they are preditory on women as well.
    Once charecterized as good, now revealed as positioning.
    Reverse positioning. The clients fall along the same lines.
