    So all their commentator's judgements on possible penalties and fouls etc are not in real time. Which just goes to show the bias they spout as they've probably listened to what the other channels are saying like Skysports. Then the papers lead on the same agenda the next day.

    Reports today that Pedro regrets moving to Chelsea. Who can blame him?!

    I bet Chelsea regret Pedro moving to Chelsea in fairness.

    He's been gash.

    Certainly no Firmino <laugh> (who's now World Class again btw)

    Did he tear it up against Bournemouth? The Dippers would be just fine if they got to play Bournemouth at Anfield every week.

    I think he would probably have regretted joining us too to be honest. I don't think walking pace football is quite his style.

    And that's why you should ignore ex players in the press.

    That RS is a right pillock. If it were him, the RS are up in top 4. With more than 6 points more and United is down to tenth with 6 points less.

    Why the BBC still employs him as a pundit is beyond a farce, he is as deluded as the RS pratts on these boards <ok>

    The problem with pundits is they believe they know better because they played the game.

    Its safe to say that's rarely the case. Some of them appear to know almost nothing about the game.

    Rarely. Neville said the first half was the best he had seen all season v City and found myself disagreeing. It wasn't awful but it was more a tactical battle than a spectacle.

    At the end of the day, these guys are paid to push an agenda, make good TV. Right now the media take any chance to have a swipe at United. It sells, people want to see it.

    Right now because we are not winning everything in sight, people are having a good old laugh. If it continues then people will start to pity us. We will be claiming we are everyone's second favourite club and everyone wants plucky United to win the league.

    If we are successful, people will use the same ****e they use now, for 25+ years. Over and over again. Except they won't be laughing, they will hate us.

    Opposition fans, the media, no one will ever pity us. That's a ludicrous suggestion!

    Why's that then? If we were to become Liverpool over the next few decades for example.

    You think people pity Liverpool? Liverpool fans pity Liverpool. The Liverpool fans in the media pity Liverpool. They haven't won the league in 25 years and are still one of the most hated clubs in the country!
