You do realise that the "Who te fuc are Man Utd" is an ANTI Utd song? Lol ! YCMIU

Thank you Alan Medic. You're right I have been quiet, mostly because I have been busy working but also because the whole bloody reason I set this thread up was to try and meet new friends that I could go and watch the match with. However, despite a lovely initial response, the thread has been hijacked by some very petty people who feel the need to question my loyalty as a supporter and I'm sick to the back teeth of it! I am loyal to Manchester United because of my heritage, a family pride that I should not have to justify. I CANNOT afford to get up to Old Trafford every home game and that is a shame but it doesn't question my loyalty just because I'm not flush enough. Have a little think about the generalist comments you all make before posting them because as I have said before, we are now in an age where money is being thrown into clubs by rich owners that it isn't just Manchester United that get glory supporters tagging on any more.


Stop bringing it up and stop insulting those who actually care - its boring and pathetic. How about we start questioning all your loyalties hey?

It's not unique to them of course, just to success. Do you remember all those Newcastle shirts you used to see about 15 years ago, where are they now?


I've plenty of mates who are Liverpool fans as they picked up that team in the late 70s early 80s, and to be honest they're pretty shrugged shoulders about it all and will be happier down broadhall way these days.


I don't mind cockney reds too much if it was a passionate dad that foisted support on them, it's the glory hunters that wind me up.

My poor boy is going to be a hammer even though he'll grow up in Ireland, though I will at least take him to London for a match once or twice a year in a desperate attempt to make my indoctrination stick!!!

    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
