Yep, they'll all be Biden their time

Can't see anyone trumping that pun

Nothing like a Sky sports United fixture with a Neville 10 minute rant that follows. One goes with the other now

He's on tomorrow night, build up will be 55 mins of him crying over the Glazers then 5 mins about our game

I'll Grant you he has probably Hoover(ed) that award. Adams fine job of it, too. A Truman of great puns.

It's great to see Ronaldo's career come to an end like this.

In football terms Man Utd are an irrelevance. A win against them is just 3 points these days. And there’s not a lot of jeopardy to be honest given how bad they are. Treating them as anything more than that is showing far too much respect to what is a complete basket case of a football club.

That man is raging against the dying of the light. I think he genuinely still thinks he’s the best in the world.

Reckon he gets more cards than goals this season.

Rio's at the wheel - or not as the case may be...

[So… Howard Philips]

Shows you how lucky Ferguson was to have so many good young players come through the ranks all at once, I know he headhunted a lot of them from other clubs like Oldham and City etc but he never stopped trying to recruit the best young talent in the country yet never managed to replicate what he did with the class of 92 (or whatever their hype machine calls them). None of his successors have managed it either so there was clearly an element of luck in what happened.

It would be like us having Fowler, Owen, Gerrard, Trent and Elliott all coming through at exactly the same time.

Interviewer guy wants the owners to spend 700million on new players, !00 million isnt good enough seemingly.

Competing for the league isnt good enough for these guys. They want it bought.

[harleydanger]

I'm sure it's been said, but for a 40-odd y.o the shit I had to go through watching United for 15 years is now all well worth it.

This is just absolutely hilarious.


"but this in MANCHESTER UNITED?!?!"

lmao

I'm lucky in that I saw them being a laughing stock for two decades before Ferguson got their arses into gear, only for them to revert back to type and become a laughing stock once more.

It's absolutely hilarious watching their ridiculous fanbase having a public hissy fit and emotional breakdown whilst begging for an oil state to bail them out and buy them trophies.

[TipTopKop]

We'd probably make them walkout after a few minutes anyway, to be fair.

[afc tukrish]

Rather sporting of us to do, no?

[Tokyoite]

Have they also tried protesting against their players?

Am worried there's a very big chance our game against them gets postponed again. No repercussions for them, of course. 

[the_red_pill]

Yeah let's assist them in their efforts... by scoring a few goals before half time. They can thank us later!

I would be very surprised if life threats haven’t been sent to their players.

It's Stephen Howson, absolutely thick as pig shit that fella, although he seems to make a decent living from talking bollocks on the internet so probably not that thick

Sorry for a minute I thought that was a typo and this was going to be a story about Ole

Really?!  Thats...thats interesting.

Although i imagine he's had takers for that offer so hard to determine which one is more sad.

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

It's all subjective opinion of course, but the Mancs are still our biggest rival for me.

Yes, they are currently irrelevant when it comes to fighting it out for the biggest (any?) trophies, but we are the two biggest and most successful clubs in England by miles. Also, the other two current challengers are not even real football clubs. Both have been built by sportswashers for political ends.

Of course, if we are talking about the most important games of the season purely in relation to how it affects the title race, then yes, it's the games against the sportswash from Abu Dhabi. For me at least, those games carry no prestige whatsoever though. Due to appalling mismanagement by the football authorities we, in this league, are saddled with having to play against these political entities but, as football clubs they are not our rivals.

I'll never recognise the spawn of Abu Dhabi and Putin as footballing rivals, ever. They are thieves, parasites leeching off the game. At least the Mancs spend money they earn and their success was built by a genius (Busby) and a talented gobshite (Ferguson). They've earned our rivalry. The other two abominations haven't and never will.

Abu Dhabi will never take over Manchester. Ever.

I see where you're coming from but, let's be honest, younger generations don't really care about history and tradition. They spend their free time playing Fifa on Playstation and for them it's not important how great Gary Neville was, they would rather focus and admire their Playstation heroes, the likes of De Bruyne and Haaland. Even my youngest lad asked me the other day to buy him De Bruyne jersey. Plus, like it's been said before, even old farts will find themselves supporting City during the whole season, that means even when they play Manutd. Also, are Manutd really a proper football club though with proper football fans? They were fuming when Saudi Arabia bought Newcastle and not them. They know the only way to rival Liverpool is The City Way. The "citification" of Manchester is a process that won't stop and is progressing massively. Couple more years of success and one or two Champion League trophies for Mancity, and Manutd won't be the biggest club even in their own city. Ironically, they support Mancity in Champion League when they play us.

If we smash them 5-0 or something, how long do you think Eric has...?

Will he be bombed out Massimo Taibi style 

[gerrardisgod]

Moreso back a good few years, used to run a site that would take advantage of day trippers, charging them to go to pubs and on tours of the ground/National Football Museum (which was free entry at the time…).

Absolute scumbag of a prick.

Incredible he has asked De Gea to play out from the back, Eriksen to take up a new deep lying midfield role, and brought in a tiny defender then entirely blamed the players. 3 of his own decisions which led to all the goals.

Yeah but this is Manchester United we're talking about, look at the owners instead

i can't imagine them moving him on quickly, having moved some of their parts around and putting ten pence at the helm, would be seen as a huge failure on the 'new' regime

that said, poch is out there

[jepovic]

Neville has quite successfully made everyone focus the blame on the owners, again diverting attention away from his friends that run the club. He's a moron, but an influential one. He knows the Glazers won't sell. He'd be terrified if they did, because a new owner might revamp the entire management and the Neville would be just another ex-player.

[the_red_pill]

The media's also egging them on. They feckin better not get our game postponed! 

Anyway... followed by a lad whose finally starting to self-reflect...

[Circa1892]

11 years later and they're utterly shite and he's unemployable and about to go to jail. Life comes at you fast.

[TepidT2O]

And they did collapse…

Literally overnight.

[the_red_pill]

And they did collapse…

It has been said- "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall"....
What a perfect illustration of that! And like you said, overnight... I won't even speak of what it looks like for him.
