Ha, ha. The last bastion is finally reached. I've been to Old Trafford a lot. I am a member and have been for many years. I'm not a Manc but I've supported the club since I was a boy, as my father was a United fan and watched Law and Best and the rest and fell in love with them. Now come on, tell me I can't be a proper fan and I'm a glory hunter and all the rest...

Respect. And I will gladly talk with you. Denis Law !!!!!!!


Ferguson has been a great Manager for United no doubt about that but as a man I don't think you can class him in the same bracket as Sir Matt Busby.. and come to think of it is 2 European Cups at the so-called most powerful Club in the world that great a return in 23 years..


I may be wrong here but didn't that gentleman they called Bob Paisley win 3 European Cups in just 9 years (at a time when likes of Forest, Man City, Wolves, Man United, Arsenal, Palace, Spurs were all beating Liverpool to the million pound barrier signings)..


SP you lost to Leeds United, now get over it.

Brandchester United being out of the FA cup effecting revenue for TV stations, what a shock, the arrogance shown here is amazing. The same could be said for Liverpool, and The Arsenal who also have large fan bases. By the way, did everyone notice how quickly Old Stratford emptied out in the dying 15 to 20 minutes of yesterdays game. Mind you it is a long old trek back to Hampshire and Surrey from Salford.

Is that a City pub? I was in there last year for a charity quiz. I thought I felt a bit nauseous! ;) If it's a serious invite and I wouldn't get glassed then I'd love to come, however, having spoken to the wife I think I might have childcare issues. Again, if you are serious I might be able to arrange something for the next leg.

    • I disagree with the who concept of tidying one room at a time. I find it's more effective to increase the overall level of tidy by 10% regularly, and take regular breaks.  Always straighten your bed first - your bed is your priority and your haven. Change the sheets if you have clean ones to use. 1. pick up all rubbish around the house; take it out. 2. pick up all crockery etc that needs a wash: put it all in one place and start to sort it out. Wash and dry whatever you can put away easily. Wash things by type - I'll do cups then plates, then cutlery, then pots..... 3. Kitchen surfaces - tidy things you can, be ruthless - everything is going to need a home. Sweep the floor, wipe the surfaces. 4. Pick up all laundry around the house. Start to sort it out so you are in control of it - wash types together - eg all sheets.  4. bathroom - so on..... Then, the entire house is an better environment. and you can just keep going.  
    • There was me overcome with memories of articles in women's magazines from the 1950s advising their readers how to be a good housewife and thinking it's like feminism never happened. Until I read the last paragraph. Be warned, this is PR from someone who runs a cleaning company.
    • Carpet can be a pain at times, the maintenance takes effort. I’ll look into that spray as a handy in-between for freshening things up. Steam cleaners are becoming more popular too and definitely seem more hygienic than a mop and bucket.  
    • I've found it quite a useful thread.  Apparently protein powders are toxic. Not that I have ever, or will ever, try them.   https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/the-hidden-dangers-of-protein-powders
