Look, Mr Wring-Neck or whatever he’s called is doing an absolutely bloody fantastic job in the Old Trafford hot seat. I mean, did you see how the plucky Rags managed to overcome ten-man Brighton at The Swamp last night, without even needing a penalty to help them do it? Marvellous work rate all round, every one of those boys really put in a shift.


The players will have only themselves to blame if they’re not up for the Europa Cup next season.


Glory, glory Man United, and all the rest of it………..

I suppose you can’t blame Mr Garner (who was brilliant as Jim Rockford, by the way) for wanting to move to a club who might have better prospects than the Rags. It’s really just a shame that City didn’t put their foot on the gas last Sunday; we could have done with the extra goal difference, because it might just end up deciding the Title when May comes around.


As for Pogba going off to Milan, does he realise how far away it is? It will take up much of the day to travel over there. I wonder if he can be bothered to stir himself that much?

How come Chelsea may close the doors? do they have no cash in their own bank/charity fund?.

Don't know,  but the fans were all cheering for Abramovich and I can understand that,  he didn't start the war and he has donated over a million to help Ukrainians.

It might be worth pointing out that Putin didn’t start the war, either. That was Zelenski, egged on by NATO.

Ukraine has been goading and discriminating against its ethnic Russian minority population for many years. Eventually, in February 2014, largely in response to this, the Russians took back the Crimea, which has historically always been a part of Russia; however, it was conceded by the drunken crook Boris Yeltsin when the Soviet Union fell apart in 1991. This caused the regime in Kiev to cobble together a new Constitution that is grossly discriminatory towards the Russians, alongside every other ethnic minority in that corrupt cess pit of a country. Independent and reliable sources estimate that more than 14,000 ethnic Russians have been killed by Ukraine’s armed forces in the eight years that have passed since then. They have been subjected to recurrent artillery bombardment by the very same army that is, in theory at least, supposed to be their protectors and who also delight in preventing terrified civilians from fleeing for the safety of the border. Oddly enough, nobody in the West seems to feel the urge to signal any virtue for these unfortunate men, women and children.


Anybody who is tempted to weep for Ukraine might be well advised to conduct a little independent research of their own, rather than listen to the lies spewing out of that Idiot Lantern in the corner of the lounge. Ukraine is the only country on Earth, and the first one since 1945, to include a Nazi regiment inside its own official armed forces. It is also steeped in National Socialist symbolism. It is, for example, the only place on the planet where you will be confronted with the Black Sun motif on an almost daily basis.


If you are a foreigner of any description, if you are black, if you are Jewish, if you are gay, then Ukraine is a very bad place indeed to be. Somehow, the boys and girls in the media bubble appear to have been too busy to notice.

Couldn’t put a supermarket there instead? I’m sure Asda would be interested.


Just saying.

Probably best not to say anything about the Rags and their latest escapade in Europe. It is never advisable to intrude upon private grief.


And by the way, I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but isn’t Mr Ronaldo worth every penny of United’s 78 trillion pound investment in him, even at the age of 63?


😂😂😂😂




I just can’t believe they fell for it last summer. Again……..

'Whatever we do we are going to be criticised': Gareth Southgate insists England boycotting the Qatar World Cup is NOT an option... but admits they will have to use their 'voice in the right way' when highlighting human rights issues


Just leave the politics out of it, either go and take part or stay home, but spare us the bulls hit you boring little man, I hope you get pumped.
