Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread.
Feck me did we need that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Unlike recent years this was one of the 1st times when we had to win for more reason than braggin rites. With recent results, the demise everyones praying for, injuries and Riogate we just had to turn the season around somehow, I thought it'd be in Lyon last week, and to a certain degree it was but after the woeful defending and the seemingly potent strikerforce of Sissy and Baros I feared the worst tonite.
I heard the team get called out and my mood didnt improve, it was the usual one striker and the "choose a player out of position for the most important MF place" we've had Fortune and P.Neville this year its Sheasy (???). Anyway as you all know Ronaldo stole the show, and he's gonna get better, but for me the way Rio slotted in after 8months out was class, it was far from a flawless performance but the kid did good (liked the little dummy he sold sissy) but to be honest when you beat the scousers you rarley give a fuck how anyone plays, shit Fuckwit Forlan got a song.
So its back to winnning ways at OT, funny thing is, is that a few of my peeps have been stating for years that although winning all this stuff is the bollox, that the days we grew up supporting United when we really didnt know what was gonna happen from one game to the next are more interesting than the recent years of "turn up and guess how many we're gonna win by"
I'm half and half on that, yeah we're unpredictable but for me its different nowadays, when LFC's empire crumbled, it wasnt under the spotlight we're under today, apart from enjoying seeing us on the top in (for me) our rightful spot, it makes no difference to my support, but seeing my clubs name dragged all over the media and having to face fuckwit ABU's getting off on us going thru a bad time piss me off to no end so I'm happy for us to stay at the top and until the arse wipes match and beat our record its gonna stay that way just as we've got away to go to mach the scousers mantle of "most sucessful football club"
Yeah success has got its downsides with the hangers on, day-trippers, merchandise monsters, sponsors (vodafone cup anyone) not to mention the club sacraficing the sacared (we used to be MUFC now its MU PLC) plus alienating the next generation of mancunian football goers, FFS how many kids have got a credit card to order tickets.
However its not hard to see the legions of ABU's watching and hoping for us to fail I've heard, read and listened to all promises of "a shift of power" but they've been faker than Lesley Ash's lips (thats for you Eric) I see how that pisses people off to no end, and being a proud manc I love that.
Which is why beating our scally scouse neighbours for the three points and bragging rites was crucial tonite, the table looks alot better than it did on Sunday morning, yeah the arse wipes are still way ahead but we'll get them later, one step at a time peeps.
So Rio back, Rooney on his way and this time no need to rush Saha, G.Neville to return in a few weeks, the 1st team squad will improve ten fold and also out of young MF's Fletcher, DJ, Kleberson and Miller its hard to think that at least two wont make the grade, then Spector, Pique, Rossi, Eagles and Mcshane in the youth team keep us stocked up for the future.
Well im kinda fucked up right now, high as a mofo and cant sleep a wink, twist one for the road and im off.........
Peace out peeps!!!
