    We are the best team for united to face after Brighton. He will set them up tactically and will get a win. We have never beaten a Jose team away from home ... think we got 1 draw ... 3 all about 12 years ago.

    and yes I know we won at Wembley last season but was technically a home match you pendants!

    So for those keeping score, the current tally for Saltypool this season includes...
    * Two offside goals
    * One penalty given for Salah tripping over his laces

    But sure, they're the unluckiest team in the Premier League...

    <laugh> that's a challenge for a pedant to ignore pedant being misspelled. Although he could be talking to people who like holding on to chains round people's necks?

    In 2004, we got a 0-0 against his Chelsea at SB. Mourinho accused us of having "parked the bus." I think it was the first use of that phrase that I remember.

    For once, he was probably not wrong.

    All I remember about that game is the Mourinho line about the bus, which is why it sticks as being the first time that I heard it.

    I'd seen them beat Palace at Selhurst a few weeks previously and they looked pretty good doing it. I was pleased with the point given that we were pretty much a scratch side at that stage.....

    He's always parked the bus. His Porto side won the Champions League doing it.
    Like his money can't buy class and Liverpool spent a lot of money quotes, he constantly projects his worst traits on others.

    Interesting game at Crawley. They trail 1-2 but Swindon down to 9 men. Can they hold out. Been the situation for 15 mins with 20 more to go.

    The money Jose has spent to build his Man Utd squad.
    Not even Fergie could have matched/bettered that trophy haul
    spending that money.

    Brentford look really good this year. Still hate that they got rid of their academy but otherwise a very well run and likeable club.

    Embarrassing record really...think these kind of things need to be erased from our psyche. He's crap, his team is crap...ours is better. Yet he will have everyone saying on Monday Night 'this is why you can never write Jose off' when the reality is we probably went all Spursy and got jelly legs away from home against a team with a bigger aura than us.
