    One down, one to go.

    Chris Hughton, for the love of your old club, do us this one favour.

    Bookies all over the country rejoice.
    What happened to Late Penalty and Own Goal? Disappeared completely. May as well have not been playing.

    You're up against two relegated sides in your final two games that would give you a huge chance to get into the top 4, and you blow it in the first of those two games <laugh>.

    That was a truly shocking result and display from Man United, especially because they knew what was on the line. Huddersfield had nothing to play for, and yet, they still could have won that game.

    Pathetic stuff.

    I know we've got a huge rebuilding job to do in the Summer, but so do they. The money they've spunked up the wall already makes us look financially prudent FFS!

    Can’t wait for them to unmask Ole at the end of the season, a few months back you’d have thought you’d find Fergie underneath, now it’s more like Richard Hammond <laugh>

    Maybe you can do some more swap deals, as the Sanchez/Mkhitaryan exchange went so well? <whistle>

    They are still the Empire when it comes to finances, CL or not.
    Wasteful spending is a luxury they still have.

    They gave us Mikael Silvestre and Danny Welbeck though, so it's not evened out. I think it's only fair if they take Mustafi and Xhaka from us. We'll even drop them off at Old Trafford for free!

    Just don’t ask Ole to pick them up, they wouldn’t make it.

    You're right, but since they last won the league, they have finished 7th, 4th, 5th, 6th, 2nd and now they will be 5th or 6th again. They haven't competed in the league or CL since Fergie was there, they are dropping in and out of the Champions League/Europa League spots, there have been well-documented issues both on and off the pitch, and now there is even more competition at the top of the table.

    They are literally living proof that it's no good being a huge commercial powerhouse if you don't have a proper strategy and you don't invest wisely.

    They will never have that period of dominance again. So if their league positions continue to fluctuate as wildly as they have been, it will not be sustainable.

    They still have Ashley Young and Phil Jones in defence, hire a minibus and we can send all our cast-offs to them <laugh>
