Which bit is great line, the "jumped up egomaniacs 98% of them" part? I agree it is a lot of fuss about nothing, but that's Phil Brown for you, he's so far up his own arse it's no surprise he's got such a brown face.

>> Scholes at his peak could have walked in to any team.


We're talking about the current United midfield :) Not Scholes from a few years back but the hunched, slow, ineffective Scholes of today, that was the squad Ferguson was talking about, i.e. the vintage squad destroyed by Liverpool last week.


>> How many of those players would want to get into the Chelsea or Liverpool team?


I don't think any of them would want to feel inferior.

United bypass the midfield - so can play whoever they want when Rooney and Ronaldo are running the show. But, none of those United midfield boys would dislodge Lampard, Gerrard, Alonso, Mascherano or Essien. I'm just surprised that Ferguson says it's his best ever squad as I think they have a real weakness in the middle.
Mancs bypass the midfield????? Listen, as much I despise the Mancs, I could never level that accusation at them, and wasn't the Vidic sending off the result of a long upfield punt by Pool. Let's not all go down with the shortsighted Wengeristic disease.

Join the queue Anna!


Our old M8 Atila was going on about his arse earlier on this thread, yesterday, but then again he's probably gone off him now as his now going on about MY arse on the online dating thread.


So the coast is clear for you and Phil Brown:))

I'm not your M8, very street cred, nor would I wish to be. You're too tough for me.

Talking of "cheeks" my tongue was very firmly in mine when I made that comment!


"I'm not your M8"...


....AT-TI-TUDE!!! I like it. I see you don't take any sh*t from anyone AR.


p.s. Don't mind me referring to this, but when one attended The Elephant and Castle's finest Educational Establishments one learnt that it is correct to say "You're" too tough, as in "You are", NOT "your" as in "your possessions etc"...


I trust you don't mind me mentioning that little faux pas, as it seems to be a night full of them AR.


p.p.s. Please can you be my "M8" as I LOVE a Man with AT-TI-TUDE.(tu)

Go to bed and take your medication before you hurt yourself, and check the content of a posting before you respond, otherwise you might find you've made yourself look like a bit of a chump, M8.

Don't mind me saying but your "ripostes" are getting lamer by the sentence AR.


Ironic comment by you about "checking the content"...Nice Touch!


p.s. ..."chump, M8."


So we ARE M8's NOW!! Make up your bleedin' mind before I depart!

"At the beginning of his brilliant teenage career it was just great expectations that followed Cesc Fabregas around. Now it is great expectorations."


just good, witty writing, right or wrong, and I admit possibly wrong, but as a fellow spaniard I'm willing to forgive... ;)

Alex Ferguson said his biggest regret was not signing Paul Gascoigne - although he used to say John Barnes.


Anyway Gazza, had the chance to join United or Spurs. Although, his favoured move back in 1988 (according to his autobiography) was to Anfield, but Liverpool never bid. I think Kenny told him to wait another year.


Gazza told Sky News: "Maybe if I had joined United I would have still been there. Sir Alex Ferguson is someone who makes men out of boys."


Obviously he'd have had more chance of winning trophies under Ferguson, but would it have him a fundamentally better person/role model had he joined United (or for that matter Liverpool 12 months later) than what we have today?

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
