    Never liked the tiny ginger ****.. Possibly one of the only united players I never liked.

    Have you ever disliked a united player? Or have you any insults you'd like to waft in his general direction.. Discuss.

    He's got a face you'd never tire of punching. As a manager he was an obnoxious twat who thought he was a stand up comedian. Twat.

    I never liked Silvestre as he had a funny shaped head and he was **** at football. He deserves his own thread.

    Agree with the never tire of punching him..

    With him as manager of Scotland I've had a tenner on them getting relegated..

    Yeah, agreed, I never got on board with Gordon. His enormous ginger head grated somewhat. He was an ok player, just nowt special.

    I was at his debut, the halcyon big Ron eighties era and him, Jesper Olsen and Alan Brazil made their debuts together, first day of the season, in a sun baked Old Trafford.





    We drew nil nil with Watford.

    I never liked Roy Carrol.

    He was ****.

    We've had worse goalkeepers but I disliked the ****er for not admitting he'd let a 135 yard punt sail over his head into the net then scooped it back like he'd saved it, the hopeless twat.

    I remember vividly as what felt like the whole Stretford End turned to look at me as I, loudly, called him a ****ing useless ****, when he spilled a shot straight to Hernan Crespo to bury so that we lost 1-0 at home to Milan and exited the champions league.

    No, did not like him at all.

    I've met Alan Brazil a couple of times. He is HUGE and looks like a big red grape that is ready to burst.

    If we were doing a sweepstake as to ex footballers to die soon he'd be a good shout.

    I think he's one of those that is indestructible Sweats. He'll live longer than most. He was battered both times I met him, early doors, midweek on both occasions!

    Yeah, he used to have a pub in Ipswich before he got the Talk Sport gig, may well still own it. We went down there one year, early 90's, and went in, he was there serving behind the bar with a head like a massive Shiraz grape!!

    Bolton league, he played for Heaton and I played for Farnworth. He was way better, obviously. Bowled me a couple of times and hit me for six many times. ****er.

    Ha! small world. I used to work in sports management so met a few "personalities" during that time of my life.

    The ship will never sink matey <ok>

    As for ours I can't think of too many to be honest. We've had poor players like Traore, N'gog and Nunez, but I didn't hate them as they all tried but generally were not up for it. Traore redeemed himself too.

    Diouf was always a useless, bastard of a man. So probably him. Downing im not too keen on but I don't hate him.

    I've dissliked more managers we've had to be honest. Roy was an absolute disaster, although I don't hate the man, just wanted him out. Kenny, although a legend, made a number of decisions which has financially cost us dearly, and the way he dealt with the Suarez case has left a bitter taste in my mouth.

    As for your lot. Neville, Ronaldo, Evra. Don't hate that many to be honest.

    There must be someone you haven't liked.. That said you've had that many bad players over the last 20 years you're brain has probably blanked them out. Bellamy?? He was a hateful ****. Another who used to get my back up and still does is Danny murphy. A face that need beating.

    Saw Strachen walk into a womens toilet once. I liked Gordon. Never liked Bosnich.My dad hates Dwight Yorke. (Which is funny considering he comes from the same island as him!?)
