The Man Utd thread (3)

No one really. But I do find acts of stupid but harmless football fandom to be quite entertaining. You could include the likes of Speedo Mick with that (although, in fairness, he has raised a lot for charity in the process).

Gross.

Thing is no one won 5 games in a row last season, it was a bit of a risk.

Three teams won 6 in a row in the PL last season.

In the PL not game wise…

I’m glad we have Henry.

Quietly rich and keeps his gob shu?

Ratcliffe is a nasty piece of work. You know when you say you wouldn’t wish something on your worst enemy? Well I hope he gets turfed out of United.

What Ratcliffe said was disgraceful. He an immigrant polluting Monaco.

He is adding more fuel on the flames and stoking up more tensions amongst our diverse communities. He got the population statistics wrong.

I thought making the Glazers look half decent was hard but he’s done it.

I bet this is a ā€œgambleā€ for the next election where he gets a government handout for showing support to Reform now. A donation now too perhaps.

How do we fancy paying for New Toilet?

The guy lives off government handouts. He’s pretty much the definition of a scrounger:

Oh! How cynical could you be?
Surely not! :joy:

Slightly off topic sorry but I’ve been looking at what is happening in the US, ( can’t think why) and this is exactly what happens there, albeit on a much larger scale. Big business getting huge government payouts (Musk for example or Panasonic) for their own investment, that the tax payer pays off through energy bills, taxes or whatever etc.

And we ask why we’re skint?

Hmm where’s Andy Burnham on this?

Yeah, I read what he said and in which context he said it, and find the outrage manufactured. Surely, he is well within the realms of civil opinion to say what he did ?

It’s not as if what he said was particularly controversial. If what he said is ā€œwrongā€, if people cannot even tolerate that someone says that you cannot have an economy so and so and at the same time have the high number of immigrants etc. And that this would in practice be some sort of self colonisation. That is a legitimate political opinion surely ?

Because if that is unaccetable (why should it be?), then meet Reform’s non-civil immigration criticism.

PR is amusing though. You cannot ruffle even one feather. So he was probably silly being honest.

Anyway, there is no ā€œhate speechā€ here:

Imo, if one cannot tolerate such an exchange of words and opinions in the immigration debate, then you have lost, as the outrage will in time be counter productive and usher in Reform with a far more damning rethoric that does not focus on the economy but on culture. It’s always better when such debates circle around the economy as regard to the far more explosive cultural bracket.
