Apart from AY being shot this week, a lot of stuff about United seems to be focusing on how boring they are to watch. This appears to come from the Moyes watchers who are awaiting the fall of the Empire. In my opinion United have for the most part been boring in CL matches away from home for some time now when it was more a case of ensuring they didn't lose than having to win. Not attractive to watch, though I actually thought this weeks game was one of their better ones.


As I'm not an avid watcher of other teams in the CL, do you think most group matches are more of an endurance test than entertainment?

Er. No they didn't. Not a poppy in site.

It's a shame that county decided to fold to the lowest of your fans knowing that a silence would be spoilt.

Pretty poor week for the reputation of 'the greatest fans in the world'.

You'd think they'd still respect the dead to be honest. I think that was a poor decision.

Maybe an interesting history lesson for some. Without the famine there may not have been a Glasgow Celtic or indeed Hibernian or Dundee United in Scotland. I'm not advocating disrespecting the dead of the great wars but there are historical reasons involved that make it a complex question as to why some choose to. Personally I think people should be able to keep quiet for a minute as a mark of respect to those who it means something to.


I can't explain the following though:

      If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.

      Ohh dear.  Fireworks can be great fun.  Where I used to live the kids would have firework wars/games.  Watching them was more enjoyable than watching  TV. (Which you could hardly hear due to the pops and bangs).  It's not like anyone/anything could stop them. I would still prefer organised public displays that are affordable.   And I agree that fireworks cause problems for wild life, pets and people.   It seems to be one of those things that just happens so we have to put up with it.  But it is still not as problematic here as in other areas in London - that's for sure.
