You know, City with all their millions and riches, could only beat us on goal difference says a lot. Still gutted, but this supposed shit United team pushed them all the way. We’ll come back stronger next season. Fuck City, fuck QPR, fuck Barton. United ’til I die.

It was a great goal and it’s a shame that his little redirect off Youngs mishit and/or 1 or both of his almost amazing free kicks didn’t go in as well. He could have tied up RVP with just a smidgen more luck.

I would like to congratulate City on winning (buying) the title on goal difference to the worst United team in premier league history (according to all the neutrals and papers). Enjoy your moment, we will be back. Treat the trophy with respect because we will be back bigger and better next season. United till i die.

Gutted. How did we blow it ? However let’s start looking forward to next season. After all as a lot of us have said, Shitty’s “best ever team” only beat our “worst ever team” on goal difference.
We’ll be back – although I also wonder if Rooney will be with us.

We all expected city to win the league today. It’s just the way it happened that’s hard to take.
Watching the two games was weird. Seeing the reactions of our players as the news filtered through from the wastelands.
Were all gutted but we will bounce back.
When Abramovich took over Chelsea and ploughed fortunes into the club, the bar was raised.
United responded with what was arguably SAF best ever team. Which delivered four more titles and another champions league.
We will respond again.

CedarsDevil – Neither did I, but resignation and acceptance at the start turned to that small bit of hope during both of the games, especially when QPR were leading, but I never got too carried away due to the time that was left. I honestly thought City would get no more than an equaliser though. It’s the manner in which we lost it that was the most gutting of all. We were Champions for a good 20 mins. United til I die.

Kings, LOL! FWIW, that cheered my up a lot. My cousin who’s a Liverpool fan will be extremely happy today as well and they lost to Swansea.

The biggest joy for millions of other fans over the world will be that United lost the league.

I can take joy from the fact that I will never be in that position. Even if United are down in the dumps, I will always take joy in supporting United than taking joy from the misery of others. I think that is the difference in class that separates United from the rest.

Costas, So, that is what the 12 signifies. I am weak with history and stats and I thought for a second that they had 12 trophies in all. The calendar year they won the title. LOL!
May 13, 2012 at 17:54
Costas says:
@Shebangsthedrums

Ah don’t mention it. Someone had to answer, lol.

The 3 stars is more proof of their stupidity. From what I’ve read on wikipedia, they are purely decorative. They added them to their badge because they wanted a continental look! I guess no one told them that stars actually represent trophies. Mind you, it was 35 years until they remembered what those felt like…
May 13, 2012 at 17:54
Xyth says:
@Costas

Totally agree. Despite everything, we were very wasteful in front of the goal this season. We seemed to be happy just winning by an odd goal or two when we should have scored 4 or 5.

We played QPR at home with an extra man, and failed to take advantage of that, Aston Villa were the poorest team this season at OT, Against Wolves away we seemed to stop at 5:0 when we could have had plenty more. Today we should have won by at least 4 goals…..

One can surely argue that this title was lost due to our inability to finish teams up.

Finally how pathetic British media and Shitty are. They can brag for all they want but a matter of fact is that they did not win (read buy) the title but we threw it away.

@Balaji

It’s actually 14 trophies for them in total. 3 league titles. And knowing their knack for twisting history around, it’s 10 league titles if you include their Championship wins.

Ash says:
Cheer up people of RoM. It almost happened but it didn’t. Its Ok, I thought there would be poetic justice and city will lose the tittle on last day like we did 95 season but it wasn’t to happen coz of QPR’s display in last 5 mins.

Barton should have injured aguero. He should have kicked him so hard that he didn’t take any part. One thing is clear city are overdependent on Yaya toure. Once he got injured they crumbled and almost lost the tittle.

We faced all injuries yet we finished equal on points and lost the tittle on stoppage time.
May 13, 2012 at 18:02
Sandeep1878 says:
Can it be more painful than a cross town bitter rival scoring the 95th minute title winning goal?

It can’t be..

We will be back stronger next season!!

come on reds, chin up..

we will keep the red flag flying high coz Man United will never die!!

@Costas, Ah, that explains it then. Still, gotta admire the fact that they did come up with a number, however non-meaningful or inconsequential it is.

I think ROM knows exactly what cheers me up in the summer.

booandman says:
Calmed down a bit now so heres my afterthoughts. Nobody on here really gave us hope before kick off so the result is not surprising. The fact that we were minutes away from glory makes it harder to swallow.
Fair play to city for going till the end, something we have done and been famous for, as for Barton costing us etc don’t forget QPR scored after he was sent off so it was backs to the wall before he got sent off.
Maybe not winning it may not be a bad thing in the long run as surely now will WILL spend on a much needed centre midfielder in the summer and the disappointment will makes the younger players more hungry and the experienced players more determined to win it back next season.

prasan_UTDfan4life says:
To lose the title this way is just sickening to the core! I can’t see the blue mercenaries celebrating..hate them with a passion! But, we will have to bear the pain till August and one thing which I am sure is that to lose the title in such a cruel way will live with the players more than the fans. Because it will make them realize it all the more that we have simply thrown it away this season rather than City earning it in the truest sense.
Without denying any credit whatsoever to City, we have still taken it to the last fucking minute in spite of going through a horrendous spell of injuries, riding on some bad luck and doing some self inflicting damage as well in the process through complacency. So fair play to the lads, we did what we could do but still wasn’t good enough to finish as Champions.
What we should remember though is that this team is still not the finished article and last time we had a similar challenge, we responded back with 3 EPL titles and a European cup! We will add in the summer for sure and we have a great man leading the ship who has seen it all, done it all and won it all! As fans, our support should be unconditional and the love for this club should never go whatever be our success rate! Yes, as fans we have a right to question the players, the medical staff etc. but what we can do at the very least is not resort to any sort of abuse towards the gaffer because he has built this club into an absolute monster on the great values of Sir Matt Busby that we pride ourselves upon!

Yes, it hurts to lose, as we have been bloody used to winning all these years but we can’t win ‘em all. And, on the positive front, this defeat would surely see some plastics jumping ship and fucking off somewhere else which I would gladly welcome. This will take some time to get out of the system but I am absolutely sure that eventually we’ll see this challenge off and respond back emphatically!! We have a fantastic group of players coming through and the young players in the first team would have accumulated invaluable experience this season. The “cows” craving the greener side of the grass can fuck off gladly and the ones who will want to say and contribute & eventually become world beaters!

This club has always come back and we will come back, be it the next season or the season thereafter. I have absolute faith and unconditional support in the club, the gaffer and our players. Let the poznan jumping cunts rub their pussies against each other and enjoy their moment. We will see the blue cunts come August.

GLORY GLORY MAN UNITED!! Keep the Red flag flying high!

Kings says:
Balaji Sivaraman – Ha. Glad you enjoyed that. That is what being a supporter of a shit club does to you. They cannot gain any pleasure from supporting their own team so they look for crumbs of comfort elsewhere – they certainly have found some today in seeing us miss out on the title. Losers. I felt more sick in 1995 than today – even though it was out of our hands back then, I actually thought we would beat West Ham and Liverpool would beat Blackburn. I am actually feeling calm now and looking forward to the start of next season when we will get our trophy back. One Love One United.

Time to put today into some prospective. shit bang fucking wallop, we finished second, shit happens. We lost the title on goal difference FFS. We finished behind a team put together with lottery money. We have had terrible luck again with injuries to key players. We WILL improve next season. Vidic, Fletcher and hopefully, some new signings will strengthen us. We will still have Sir Alex, and we will always have our history and heritage. We will have tartan shirts ( alright forget that one). Yes finishing second to anyone hurts, but let’s not forget that under the circumstances this season, that we have done better in the league than Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and tottenham. We finished second we didn’t
Get fucking relegated. Not expecting fans to be happy today but let’s not forget just who we are and just how privileged we are to be reds. United United United.

Tevez and Balotelli, you are still a couple of cunt mercenaries.

I think that we all feel proud to be United fans.

This season we have had to contend with an incredible injury list. Fuck when Shitty had YAYA and Peanut out injured they fell apart, so much for their wonderful squad!

“The worst United team in living memory” have stood toe to toe with a squad of players that are better than Barca’s (laughed my gonads off at that one) and ended up 90 seconds for being champions!

Our wonderful owners have sucked £500 million out of the club while shitty’s owners have pumped £930 million into their club a difference of approx £1.5 billion but still only lost on GOLD difference.

Don’t like giving scousers any credit (or anyone associated with them) but this quote from Bob Paisley seems rather apt just now:
‘Mind you, I’ve been here during the bad times too – one year we came second.’

Let’s put things in perspective, we’ve lost the title to settee, we lost it in 92 to leeds (scum) we lost it in 1980 an 1988 to the scouse scum, we’ve lost it to l’arse and chavski – so this is not the first time we have lost it to a hated rival and we’ve lost it by the slmest of margins (90 seconds from glory) – we’ll be back and we’ll be taking our trophy back too – sette will not susain this kind of challenge no matter what the media would have you believe – they have no real foundations for it.

I rather have this dissapointment then be a fan of any other football club.
Well congratulations to City for winning it. As the saying goes- Reaching to the top is not enough, its being able to be there that matters.
Manchester United and Sir Alex have achieved it. Now that City have won it, lets see them play once the pressure is on them. Last time they won a trophy, they lost it in 93 minutes.
Its the pressure of maintaining the top position that is the most toughest thing to do.
And if not for the horrendous injuries our team had to suffer from, things would have been way too different.
And to add further, Do city even have a plan for the future?? Is throwing money at the best players off the world their only plan? How more long would they do it?
Atleast at United, We are pretty sure of our back five for the next decade. Chico and Welbeck our strikeforce for years. Its just the mid field that Sir Alex has to work on.

And to City, Plastics and all others rejoicing at United’s lose: We`ve been in this position before and we have bounced back. Just ask Chelsea. They crummbled as soon as they lost their title. Ask Arsenal, after loosing the title they haven’t challenged for it for years.

And for all the Rest of the reds around the world: Defeat is not when you fall. Its when you refuse to get up!!!

This is a disappointment, but I wouldn’t swap it for anything in the world. Mancini and Gallagher will feel the effects of Karma very soon. I personally hope they both die due to their despicable and disgusting nature. Fucking cunt mancini was waving an imaginary card when Mackie scored. Fucking bastard.

Our WIGAN performance..
and our unlike United play in 9 games which we dint win when we conceded first..

In a way, it is a bit silver lining, now we will be more concentrated on adding quality players..may be coupla..and also next season we wont play like dead team sometimes and throw away winning leads..

London rivals winning doesnt have this much impact since its down the road team,

This will freshen up the entire United, right from squad to approaching the games..

denton davey says:
MG @ 19:02: “I’ve already started the transfers – let’s focus here people”

You’re still a day behind the wily OldFootieKnight – he was in Germany yesterday sizing up Shinji Kagawa and I’d believe that he liked what he saw.

Contrary to those who think the be-all and end-all of the footie world is in Ingerland – and the EPL – there are many, many highly skilled (and tough) players plying their trades elsewhere. A guy like Kagawa plays before crowds of 80,000 in all his home matches so he’s very unlikely to be star-struck in the Theatre of Dreams.

Like Mesut Ozul, Kagawa has “run down” his contract so that he has bargaining power which will translate into a relatively-cheap transfer-fee and higher wages. He is a “value” in the marketplace – and a fucking good player, too.

Perhaps the most worrying thing about this year’s “transitional” season was the long, long list of injuries – was anyone, apart from Patrice Evra, available for selection each and every week ?

How do you legislate for injuries – bad luck ? or bad training methods ? AND, obviously, there’s no way to take account of an illness, like DarrenFletcherinho’s bout with ulcerative colitis, that will seemingly cut short a professional athlete’s career in its prime.

So, I’m warily optimistic about next season – and greatly looking forward to the “other season” when SAF does his business.

If anything, getting pipped-at-the-posst should free up the bean counters’ hold over the transfer budget. Hopefully, the in-comers will be quality – not just potential – who can contribute from the get-go.

This season was a real roller-coaster ride. It’s not life-or-death and, most definitely, it’s NOT more important than that. I enjoyed it, I was happy with the banter that Scott’s blog affords me, and I am already looking forward to more blood-rushes in the near future.

It’s amazing how the reaction on here is that we’ll be back next year to get our title??? On what evidence??? The last 20 years?? The experience we have in our squad???

Maybe it’s this attitude that we’ve developed by winning so much has got us spoilt.. The fact is that we have GIFTED city the title a year early. If we can win 12 titles then with their money can certainly do that.. And most probably more European cups too.

We are left with a skeleton of a side that has been embarrased and humiliated by their lowly neighbours and blown a lead that has never been done in history.

The writing was on the wall last season but was masked due to the achievement of the team.

No doubts if we don the same today SAF would have glazed over it.

Things need to be done NOW before we turn into the dippers and watch City do what we’ve done over next 20 years.

Things might look different when the dust settles but this is a key time for United. They need to get this summer and next season right.

I know the title was lost on details, but I hope Fergie and the club don’t misinterpret that and they strengthen the team. The truth is that we closed the gap on City and overtook them after we got eliminated from every competition because we couldn’t handle playing in more than one. Time to build a strong squad and stop relying on injury prone or players over 32.

Don’t get me wrong, Scholes, Ryan and Rio were fantastic today, but remember when our team was averaging 23 at the start of the season?

Fuckin gutted. I started today with not much belief……..but for about half an hour, I genuinely thought we could pull it off. It’s the hope that kills you!

Fair play to City – the best team always wins the League and this season that was them – but only JUST. It was marginal, fractional.

From our point of view – for a team in transition to take it all the way to the final seconds of the season is an achievement that they deserve a lot of credit for. 89 points normally wins you the League ffs! Throw in all the injuries we’ve had, and its an even better achievement. If City had been without Kompany and Toure for as long as we were without Vidic and Fletcher – they wouldn’t even have got 2nd IMO.

Their team is in its prime, ours isn’t. So can you imagine what we can achieve when this team fully develops and matures?

Go back to when Fergie was building his last great side, the middle of the last decade. I don’t remember that team competing for titles? Yet they went on to achieve greatness. So this current crop are already “ahead of schedule” if you know what I mean. A few more signings, and a few of the older players gradually eased out, and we’ll be fine.

Veron is perhaps the perfect example, was one of the truly top players when we signed him but his style just wasn’t right for United or England or look at how well Forlan has done in Spain when he struggled at United. Perhaps at lesser clubs they would get time to develop the attributes they need to succeed in this league that maye they haven’t needed in other leagues but you don’t always get that time at a club like United. And if they don’t initially perform the media can kill them, we almost saw that with De Gea which has to be taken into account

It’s easy as fans to be all Football Manager about it but we have to bow to Fergies superior knowledge of what’s needed to succeed (and even then there are so many factors that you ant account for so players he felt may fail). You mention Ozil and clearly United were interested but we don’t know for certain if united passed or if Ozil wanted to go to Real. If it was United passing I’m not sure it was an awful decision, he has struggled from a stamina point of view in Spain and our leagues a bit more physical and played at a higher tempo so you have to wonder how he would have progressed at United. Suspect he may have spent much of the time on the bench despite his obvious qualities whie his game adapted.

Of the young players we have been linked with as one of the older and due to knowing how to deal with expectation I think Kagawa as the best chance of making an immediate impact but not expecting anyone he signs from abroad to make an instant impact where as I would someone who is used to England and the league.

“I think we can take great credit,” Sir Alex told MUTV. “We’ve had to contend with a lot of injuries this season so I’ve had to change the team around a lot. That didn’t always help us.“I have absolutely no recriminations about our season at all. Yes, there were times we can look back and say we’ve done this wrong or we’ve done that wrong, but 89 points would have won the league in most seasons.
“We did our best today and but for their goalkeeper we could have scored seven goals. We hit the post, the bar, their goalkeeper made some fantastic saves. We conducted ourselves in the right way. It was a good level of performance.

I salute you buddy as you are one of the very few people here who are always there to lighten up the place when it all seems doom and gloom and your words along with fellow reds provide some much needed perspective when it’s so badly needed!

On another note, we will be back you Shitty classless poznan aping cunts! Enjoy your fucking moment and then prepare for a hungry Manchester United to come and wrestle back the title from you small time classless cunts!

United`s Positives from this season:

David De Gea- No more debates. The lad is going to have a brilliant future ahead.

Johny Evans &Chris Smalling: Well that`s the CB positions sorted out for atleast a decade

Danny Welbeck: The lead striker.

Ashley Young: Perfect replacement for Giggs.

And with Phil Jones adding a year of experience under his belt.

Thought Giggs was awful in the second half. I forgot he was even on the pitch at 1 point as he was so Anonomous. Shame as 1st half was one of his better ones recently

Sparkz says:
I actually thought Giggsy had one of his few good performances this season. Even Jones and Evra, who’ve come in for some stick, had pretty good performances. There was nobody who I thought was a weak link today.

Then again, maybe that’s because I wasn’t fully concentrating on our game!

Feel like shit but have an insight into how the Bayern fans must have felt – Christ, I can still remember their shell-shocked faces; they had it a lot worse.

So, we’re shit..We’ve lost our stardust…We have no midfield…we’re bloated glory hunters and deserve to suffer….City are the kiddies…Robbie is the man…Moyes going nuts when it’s 4-4 and we’re getting our comeuppance. Yet, despite all this we’ve got record points and have been pipped on goal difference after a slew of injuries.

Sorry to all the non – united cunts here but we will still keep going and we’ll get stronger. City aren’t even a real club , just a plaything and , yes, we’ve got parasites feasting on our blood but in spite of them stealing and wasting our profits, we will see you all out.

I love United and all my fellow fans, you’re my brothers. Everybody else can fuck off and die, no offence like.

Phil Jones' Birdshit Streaks says:
You know, since we’re talking possible transfer targets etc. It seems like Kagawa is odds on to join us, but I also think signing Clint Dempsey wouldn’t be the worse bit of business. Ok, he’s not a name that’s gonna set all United hearts racing, but I doubt we’d pay more than 8-10 million, and he would give us a new dimension from midfield with his goals and drive. I wouldn’t want us to just stop with those two, as I see Dempsey more as a squad player, to replace the likes of Park etc. I still want that midfield dynamo though, whoever that might be. That HAS to be Fergie’s first area to look at. Might be worth hijacking Arsenal’s deal for Yann M’Vila. Either way, onwards and upwards.

@vishal De Gea… No question marks??? Are you sure?? I think the defense has been at sea this season. And came back to haunt us in the Everton Game.

Danny Welbeck.. Our main Striker??? 1 goal in 14 games.. Well I’m rubbing my hands at that one!

I fully agree with Ashley Young.. Brilliant this year

I’ll agree with you on Evans… But smelling has done a John I shea.. Not so great second season.

As for Jones… Jury’s still out on him… Bit to giddy for me and one who believes in his own press too much. Maybe the comments of him being future captain has gone to his head.

I will add that yet again Scholesy showed his weight in gold and without him who knows where we will be.. He made Carrick believe in himself and brought back the player we know and love.

As for Rooney.. He did his best but needs more support.

2) Rooney’s 28 Goals – His personal best.
3) Watching Paul Scholes again
4) The youngsters: DeGea, Evans, Smalling, Jones, Cleverly, Welbeck. All played their part this season. Brilliantly at times…in some cases…most of the time.
5) We never gave up. Even after having on of the worse injury record this season

James7t7 – united need 3 to 4 players, and 4 or 5 players need to go. For me this is what united need?

players needed – a defender, 2 CM players, a striker

We do need to do some buying this summer and midfield does need sorting. Says a lot when a 37 years old who only plays half a season and comes out of retirement is by far head and shoulders above all our other midfielders!

Newcastle blew a 10 point lead in 95/96.

You make some fair points but not sure why so negative. We’ve just lost on goal diference to a team tipped to win by a country mile who have speant millions in three seasons. A team that has just been run to the final minutes by a shit team who have been injury ravaged all season.
89 points is a fantastic haul by such a shit team and on many occaisions would have won the league.

Granted Utd can’t match their spending power but show me a team that can. Until the fairplay rules come into effect we’ll just have to sit back and watch them implode.
SAF will bring in players, players that he’ll feel can improve the side and not players that the papers tell him he’s buying.

I thought the Owen transfer made sense and it did and then he got injured and carried on getting injured – I knew it was bad but not that bad – alas a fit Michael Owen would have been fun over the years especially in 2010 when Rooney got injured.

It just wasn’t to be.

Bebe thing I don’t get – Diouf good player not United type – Obertan no idea – lots of misses but of course lots of hits too.

Berba for 30 million? In hindsight no, not now – but for everything he did last year – it worked – though SAF lost faith in him – why didn’t he just sell him last summer and buy one midfielder for starters?

The team that wouldn't die says:
Ok, time to be constructive.
They were going to walk the league with a 15 points margin. They didn’t, and that against a United team in transition fighting more injuries than I can remember in my 27 years as a fan.
We handed them the title, so I guess we can’t complain.
First trophyless season since 2005.
Can this team go on to be better than the 2008 team?
Who should we buy.
Will City be better next year?
Can any one else challenge Manchester for real (in the PL)?

There’s no Ronaldo in this team, and there won’t be. The Sanchezes, Hazards and Neymars of the world are drawn towards money. But there are more promising players in this team than in the 2005 team.
I do believe Cleverley, Welbeck, Smalling, Jones and De Gae will improve and be the back-bone of the team in the future. Rooney will be the “father figure”
Competition is healthy all over. But we need two midfielders.
Kagawa and a more versatile one. And we need a left back. I’m sure this will be sorted, and that the cost will be around £50m. Will Keane will join the squad and someone we’ve never heard of will be added on the cheap.

We have a few question marks. Jokers. If one or two of them come good it’s like signing a great player:
Anderson – play consistently like when on top or leave. If he can do the first he’s better than that Newcastle guy.
Cleverley – Every time he’s on the pitch I like what I see. Most promisinng MF from the academy since Scholes. Hope he stays fit to proove himself.
Rafael – like Anderson. Please get rid of mistakes and you could make the RB your own spot for years.
Nani – Better and more important than Silva! Yet he has more to offer! Time to step up and stay there.
Tunicliffe – Well he must be better than Henderson??

City: Where do they go from here?
If FFP were not a reality, they could just buy Hazard, Neymar, Goetze, Van Persie and a few good defnders (they need that). It would cost them £200m but that’s nothing for their sugar daddy.Now they can’t. If they sell Tevez, Adebayor and Dzeko they could get around £55m, meaning they could buy Van Persie. Getting rid of some dead wood would maybe clear the way for Hazard too. But let’s just hope Bridge et al refuse to bow for the sheik. But if they are smart they should get 2 defenders. I don’t think they will. They should, cause there’s no way they will be this lucky with injuries next season.
2nd season EVERY ONE will want to beat them. They will have the same problems with their ego players, and new one will arise. They will be better, but only slightly. If no talents emerge from “Elite squad shit” they will last 4 years and then decline. IF FFP is a reality. We will see. Obviously the Ethad £400m deal is bollocks. Does that prick Platini have the guts to do something about it? 4 years.

X-factor is forces outside of Manchester. I don’t believe in Newcastle and Spurs. They will lose key players and nor be able to replace them.
Arsenal, if they keep Van Persie could come good. Wilshere will be like a new player, and they take some good vibes with them from the last half of the season.

Chelsea will have one last dig at glory. But that Mafia guy “in charge” is to stupid. He will blow it again. And I don’t believe for a second that they will beat Bayern. It’s been a pleasure watching them sink. And I will be there to wave good bye in a few years when they go under water.

Liverpool will make us laugh. The weong doings of this year will take many years to repair. They have so much crap they can’t sell. If the owners are smart and in it for the long haul, they may slowly get there. But not for 4-5 seasons.

I thought it would hurt more. But the thing is:
It took the arabs £950.000.000 to get to where they are. And in 2 years time the problems will show. Maybe even next season we will see a few small signs. Patience is a good thing when you have young, hurted talent comming through. We will build a new UNITED team!

I am glad for all the abu-fans out there. They rather want a random team with unlimited resources and 40+ overpaid superstars win the league then Manchester United. Still we lost the league at overtime and our own stupid mistakes. And that is a year where we had 10 players or someting on the bicycles all the season, including our captain. And a year where our youngsters were about to be pitched in. Not that bad after all. United til I die. Bring on next season. Let them think they deserved it, we all now what the truth is.

I have no idea what the fuck you are on about

I for one wouldn’t want a team built around Giiggs and Scholes and Carrick, and I don’t believe it has been – the youngsters have gone in made mistakes – hopefully will have learned from every single one of them.

You can take the piss out of me I don’t really give a fuck

James7t7 says:
@James21 … I was referring to the point that no one has lost an 8 pt lead that late on in a season… As we lost greater lead to Arsenal in 97/98.

I’m may come across as negative but to be frank.. I have every right to be after today.

I don’t buy the fact that City are better than us.. I don’t deny the fact that they were 8 pts clear of us at one point… But it was the nature of our team displays in the games that mattered is downright worrying…

Not only did we not learn from Basle n Benfica at OT but when we needed a win away in Basle.. We ballsed it up

We then lost to a 2nd rate Crystal Palace team at home… Regardless of carling cup or not.. It was poor.

The FA Cup defeat at Anfield was a bitter pill to take and the Europa Lg was a chance for the lads to salvage their European Cup exit.. And when it come down to it they bottled it.

I’m afraid the lg collapse since the Wigan game has summed this current team up in my opinion.. And yes it is negative and hence my negativeness.

I always believe in all of SAFs teams as that’s what we need to do… I even stuck a wager on us to win the league this morning.. Like to know how many others had that blind faith.

But now the season is over and I can say it how it is.. I’ll be the first one pumped up for the start of next season.. I’m already waiting for the fixtures on June 18th.. I’ll be there believing we can do it again.

But I’ll say again… I have every right to have a pop at this team. Its like the opposite of the 1999 season.
May 13, 2012 at 21:29
James7t7 says:
James21 did we not throw away a 14 pt lead to Arsenal… And nearly again to Blackburn in 93/94… However with so little games to go.. An 8 pt lead is a full on calamity as FITB states with our manager and our so called experience was a Devon loch

No problem with your points. And yes there have been some strange results this season. I remember lots of strange results over the years but just take them as football. Shitty won it on goal difference and goal difference only. So can’t really see many negatives. Our new goalkeeper took time to bed in, we have lost our best defender for the best part of the season we have had injury after unfortunate injury that have definately unsettled us yet for some reason some posters choose to ignore it ,come on here and only look for negative points that to be honest aint really there. The table speaks for itself. Goal Difference.

Costas says:
I agree with FITB that all things considred, this was the worst choking in EPL history. Newcastle lost a bigger lead, but that happened over a period of 2-3 months. Not like this. And not this close to the end of the season.

@Wakey

Giggs’ age started showing in the 2nd half I feel. One of the reasons United’s performances in the 2nd half tend to get worse is the fact that Scholes and Giggs start tiring. Nonetheless, Giggs for a while looked better than he has in recent weeks.

James7t7 says:
Couldn’t agree with you more James21 in regards to Vidic.. We should have won it after their defeat at Arsenal.. And losing on goal difference isn’t any consolation.. It in fact is worse when you consider that we had opportunities against Fulham and QPR at home and didn’t take advantage. Our naiveness at conceding 3 in the last 90 secs at OT against City.

These are such un utd traits that the manager needs to sort.

One point that has been mentioned.. Was SAF during the Everton game when 4-2 up laughing and joking with the 4th official? Wasn’t it that sort of thing that Bayern were doing in 1999 that spurred Ole on to score the goal and mimic Baslers celebration… Maybe I’m nit

My Dispondancy is best summed up by RedHarry4Lifes comments..

“no not because of all the above but because it feels like we have walked across manchester and handed the trophy to city.

It does not matter how long you are on this earth you will only get a few chances of glory ever and you have to grasp them with bith hands and this season these players have thrown it away.

James21 – so what, if it was a 10 point lead, they were 10 points ahead in march time, we were 8 pts ahead in mid april. Tell me another side that threw an 8 point lead away with 6 games left? no one. And newcastle had never won a league title, newcastle were up against a united side that would go on to win 6 league titles, a treble, and a world club cup.

This united side threw away a league title, with 6 games to go, after winning every trophy in the game, apart from the FA cup. If that is not enough to convince you it is the biggest throw away in prem history, then you do not know the difference between a winner, and a pretender. United were already champions, newcastle were competing to win a league title, with a terrible defence, and a manager that had no plan B. Newcastle were always capable of collapsing, you never would have expected united to collapse, when not only were there only 6 games away, the fixture list was basic. wigan villa everton shitty swansea Sland, out of that lot, I would have expected 15 pts out of 18, and the fact we give away a 4 2 lead against everton, makes this title the biggest collapse in prem history

Where united should have signed alonzo for 14 million, WS signed instead of anderson in summer of 2007 for 17 million, modric and aguero signed in summer of 2008 of cost of 53 million, sanchez in summer of 2009 for 17 million.

The club has for years commemorated the disaster on the shirt

Fair enough – they let the families come to the ground and let them grieve

Fair enough

But then now – now because of business greed there new shirt has the flames at the back – disrespectful and disgusting

Why Buch boy wants to come here and wind us up is no mans land job – he should be fighting for some justice – but of course he desk;t give a fuck because branding is more important than the morality of respecting the fallen

Wakey @ 19:57: “there is however the issue of them being suitable for the English league which is always an issue.”

I’ve heard this a lot but I don’t think that either of the two examples – Veron or Forlan – are especially on-point.

J-S Veron was in Keane-o’s immense shadow – Seba needed to be the lynchpin and as long as Roy was SAF’s first-choice then Veron was never going to be “the man” and the team was not going to revolve around him. Wrong place; wrong time.

Diego Forlan – who, let us not forget, made the scousers cry – didn’t get enough game-time on a consistent basis. I don’t think that his problem was that he was “unsuitable” but, rather, that self-belief was knocked out of him by a combination of circumstance: language/cultural differences, slow start, some astonishing and quite hilarious misses, and possibly being a “confidence player” who could never get himself on-track.

Leaving aside these two, who would have thought that David Silva was “right” for the EPL – small, tricky, lightweight, easy to knock off the ball but…..

Besides, I think that the differences between the EPL and other leagues is over-emphasized. It’s still all about having the ability to do things with the ball at your feet – and NOT being afraid of physical contact. BUT physical contact is part of the way the game is played – even in Spain and even by the BarcelonaDivas.

You could tell they were going through a rollerocaster of emotions and I know how awful it is finding out about results elsewhere like this.

Anyways, I just want to write in saying that, Yes a lot of people will be afraid and nervous. But then lets leave the criticism to the Cunts, we are the supporters, sremain United through thick and skin.

For those who think that There will not be a reaction, they are deluding themselves. As people have pointed out, this season has bee real fucked up this season. Just imagine City without Toure and Kompany, Arsenal without Persie and Vermaelen and so on. Does anyone here really think that they could get 89 points and push it to the last minute? Oh and not to forget the fact some great servants have retired. So in a nutshell keep your head high. Be angry, be furious. Its that passion which will get our trophy back. But for gods sake Dont turn on the lads. Not on the gaffer.

Seasons have ended everywhere now and there are some rather interesting final finishes that will most definitely have an impact on transfer plans around Europe, perhaps even our own plans as many have highlighted its time to buy.

Malaga finished 4th in la liga which means Bilbao and A Madrid won’t be in CL next year. Villareal were relegated so many of their players will be leaving.

Both Napoli and Inter missed out on the CL which will means some of their players are going to want to leave.

We all know who the main names are connected to those clubs so we have some major moves coming. Some of those will be “value for money” if we show interest.

Good post. There are many good players that can be bought for cheap if we show interest. Its not like we can’t spend. We need to spend around 75 millions on right players and then we can dominate in all front.

Kagawa deal should be done ASAP. No need to delay it. There are 3 top players in europe who will be available Javi Martinez, Hazard and Cavani. Now I would prefer Martinez but if we sign any one from these three we will dominate again. Ok they may cost more than 30 millions but I won’t mind spending 30 millions on a top player.

We also need a striker to replace Berba and owen. We don’t need to spend that much on a striker. Will keane will join the squad. I won’t mind if we sign Raul on free. He would be better than Owen. But if not then we could look for a decent striker at a decent price. No need to spend more than 20 millions on a striker.

Coming to defence, I feel we should promote some of our talented kids from reserves. M.Keane has been great in defence for reserves. Fryers should be given contract extention. He is a real deal. Can’t afford to lose him. He should be gradually promoted. Other than that we are frontrunner in signing Nathan Clyne from Palace. He looks like the future of england defence.

So from my above observation we have to sign 4 players and that would be enough for us to dominate

Kagawa – 15 millions (Don’t think he will cost just 7 millions)

Martinez/Cavani/Hazard(Any one) – 35 millions

A striker- Not more than 15 millions

Clyne- 5millions

So we have to spend 70 millions which is not that much. Remeber we will also sell some players.So we need to buy some quality players without fail

this paragraph below reminded me of how much we’d come to take the league for granted, i remember one particular article last season after the barca defeat, which insinuated that the premier league was no longer enough for manchester united.

“……..This might sound odd coming from a diehard Man U supporter, but I’m not that sad.

Manchester United has won the league title in four of the last six years. If you win every year it stops being a cause to celebrate, stops giving you something to strive for. This defeat gives every Man U supporter across the globe a reason to want to win the title next year more than ever.

A new season is only three months away.”

Why not? Last season we spent around 55 milions. This time Sir alex knows he has to buy to win trophies. Spending 70millions on 4 or 5 players is not that much. Spending that much of money on a single player is what United will never do but spending it on 4 players they will do.

And Like I Said we will sell some players so we will recoup atleast 10 millions if not more. Honestly if we are smart we could easily recoup 20 millions by selling Berba, Pogba, Park and other fringe players.

We need a star player and not a squad player only. In hindsight it is possible and it is the right way to move forward.

Would have preferred a comfortable Citeh win yesterday rather than the painful drama in the end.

United should be proud of their effort the entire season, but the huge question marks left on their poor European performances, questionable defending in certain games, and the horrible 4-4 draw with Everton (and losing at home to fricking Blackburn!) need to be addressed thoroughly and properly.

A basic over-haul of the midfield is needed. If the news about getting Shinji Kagawa or Nicolás Gaitán is true then I expect the fat to be trimmed. Sorry to say but Anderson will most likely be sold, as would the fringe players like Macheda. I expect Michael Owen to be released as well.

I have no problem with our defence – despite its inconsistent form – and our strikers, its the midfield that needs an overhaul. With Fletcher’s condition not getting any better and Scholes/Giggs need to be used sparingly, it is high time to beef up the centre.

Bring on next season. Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea have come and gone. Now its Citeh’s turn to face our reaction.

Kagawa deal is the most optimistic but he is an attacking mid, the role which Rooney has played most of this season. If he comes in, then he will be tried at the wings which will allow only Nani/Valencia/Young to start.

Ok, lads – the morning after…how does it feel?

Personally speaking, I was physically sick for a few hours, and then the defence mechanism kicked in and I said to myself, “What the fuck. Get a grip – this is sports. It’s meant to break your heart at some time or the other.”

Already feeling much better in the morning (though it is in times like this that I thank God I don’t stay in Manchester). Many thanks to posters on here for demonstrating a healthy dose of maturity, and particularly to MG for trying to lift our collective spirit.

I’ll say this – it is what it is. We could go on and on about what ifs – Vidic’s injury, Fletch’s illness, Fergie’s tactics, Evans’s redcard, Rooney’s nightout before the Blackburn game, Wigan/Everton, non-penalty against the barcodes, right up to Joey Barton. All of that is ifs and buts. Pointless. As Fergie said 2 years back, we could go on and torture ourselves like that, but we’re better than that. “What ifs” are not for us. “What is” is better and “What will be” is for us to shape.

The table does not lie. The table says that we were second best. By the narrowest of margins ever. So to Manchester City, I’ll say, “Well done. Congratulations, it’s been great fun competing.” No shame in that – after all, we are spotsmen. So accept it we must. If there are jibes coming my way (and you won’t believe – I couldn’t, how much shit we are getting here in India from Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool supporters), I’ll smile, shrug my shoulders and say, “We tried hard – not to be”. Suck it in. Use your anger constructively. Internalize it, stoke the fires gently for later use, don’t let the energy dissipate in trying to answer pointless taunts. Draw a line under it – no ifs and buts, and look ahead.

Being a part of the Manchester United community demands this from us – we take it on the chin, hold our heads high, be gracious to our opponents, and treat adversity the only way we ever should – as a challenge. Because THAT is who we are.

Believe.

Voice of Reason: “use Nani properly …grossly underutilised this year”

I’ve made similar comments before but SAF thinks otherwise. I don’t know why because Nani is the most skilled and most tricky of the trio of wingers – and he can play on either side.

Nani is a game-changer but “inconsistent” (which seems to come-with-the-territory) whereas Antonio Valencia – and to a lesser extent Ashley Young – are players whose job-description is to “feed” the strikers.

It’s the same story with Chicharito/DannyTheLad – one is a game-changer the other is a more complete player who isn’t as frightening for the opposition.

I reckon that one addition – someone to “replace” DarrenFletcherinho will suffice, as long as the injury list can be properly managed.

I asked yesterday if there was any out-field player other than CaptainEvra who was knackered for some period and missed matches = is that bad luck or bad physic/training ?
