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!!!

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
