I'd forgotten about Spurs being relegated, funny ole decade that was with two big clubs going down...although I think we can add Chelsea to that list as well, so that would be three.
To be fair I'm a Fairweather. I don't really know much about our history. Just from the bates period and onwards. Mark stein and Paul furlong as our forwards
Yeah you can’t say his signings have been good overall but dross on big money like Rashford and Maguire were always going to take time to shift. Not saying he’s done a good job of that either. Don’t rate the bloke but still like that they’ve backed him at a time every club bins managers so readily.
Good job Chief is playing golf this morning, and Trebs has disappeared... @Diego you seen this bruv ^ #grass
No idea about his popularity amongst the Utd fanbase but he's often been a source of ridicule from rival fans despite the silverware success. I think their fans, somewhat similar to ours, may just be sick and tired of managerial merry go rounds and want a manager backed over a few years. As for the squad, I think that's largely on him and who he's working with on transfers. As I said, a lot of former Ajax/ Eredivisie amongst their ranks now, a decent bunch are who he's previously managed too.
You missed the best times mate, Hollins, Osgood, Harris etc playing on dodgy pitches, when there were no rules about knocking lumps out of one another. Then Bates came along and wanted to electrocute everyone.
Don't bother - if your choice of foliage is as poor as your wit it will be too green, lacking in any real substance and potentially poisonous...
Yeah funny enough I did think it might not be such a bad idea at the time, as mental as that sounds now. Unfortunately the absolutely awful side of the game back then, along with the reputations that some of the London clubs had.
Maguire and rashford are pennies compared to the pounds he's been splashing. To be honest i hadn't realised it myself until it was pointed out to me. Its admirable what united are doing as arsenal done the same and lego head is coming good. Malacia 15m. Martinez 50m Casemiro 65m Anthony 85m Mason mount 60m Onana 45m Hojlind 70m The above signings are like Chelsea signings. Superstar prices for not really superstar players lol. Nearly 400m for that rabble above. Time will tell with the below but he's got to get top 4 at a minimum for what he's spent Zirkzee 40m De ligt 40m Yoro 55m.
Heading off to Salisbury as the mighty Bwood continue to steamroller the sixth division. All Novichok Aren’t We.
