The Man Utd thread (3)

Good to see Ratcliffe’s ability to get and nurture sporting talent covers both cycling and football. Undecided on sailing yet but one shouldn’t specialise.

He’ll be splitting peas at home soon. Getting practice

Thought he’d done that already

Hang on. So they want the squad to do well in the Prem and qualify for Europe while at the same time banging on about how not having European commitments is such a good thing because they can do well in the Prem… :face_with_spiral_eyes:

Yeah it’s a point I made earlier in the season about not having European commitments this season so they could concentrate on the league and get err into Europe.

And before anyone says it their only chance of Europe was the CL.

There was a story on him pulling large investment in North Sea oil (I think it was) and moving it to the US over the last few days.

Maybe Ratcliffe has a very big United kit collection all of a sudden :thinking:

Probably just old Jim pleading poverty again in the hope of getting the taxpayer to help fund his new toy, the eight wonder of the world.

Ps. We seem to have broken this one.

That they have to face this reality along with the knowledge of how shit that United are makes it sweeter.

We had it for years and them some.

Fergie this fergie that.. this is what used to happen and that’s why I hate them..

It’s cute as to how every season , they start with some semblance of positivity only to see the positivity die a brutal death 2-3 games in.

I was naive too once. Thought that we could finish in the top 8 with Hodgson. But this is entirely different.

We didnt spend fuck loads of money under Hodgson to be in the relegation battle. These guys routinely spend upwards of 200m a transfer window for the last 10+ years and still remain shit.
