Manchester United Thread

surely the train to Old Trafford at matchdays will be running, I don't know which one that is though

Sevilla game should be good, where are you sat
 
I am buying the tickets of ticketmaster tomorrow, i guess the game is on general sale to the public but the tickets are in th E236- E239 area
 
the station at Old Trafford or Picadilly?

Old Trafford is right by the Main (South Stand), Picadilly is quite a walk I believe

you can get a view of where you're sat on the United website as well

from Football Ground Guide:

Probably the best way to get to the stadium is by Metrolink or train from Manchester Piccadilly mainline station, as Old Trafford has both its own railway station next to the ground and a Metrolink station which is located next to Lancashire County Cricket Club on Warwick Road, which leads up to Sir Matt Busby Way.

Chris Kilcourse adds; 'The Metrolink also has another branch line going to Eccles from Manchester
Centre. There are two stops to leave the tram - Pomona and Exchange Quay. These are on the opposite (Salford) side of the ground - probably a quieter line on Matchdays. Pomona is the closest to the ground, only a short walk away and closer than Lancashire CC. Exchange Quay is the one to use for return journeys as the trams get full and may not stop at Pomona going back'.

Amit Basu informs me; 'If using the Metrolink, away fans are better off taking the Altrincham - Bury route and getting off at Old Trafford station, by the cricket ground - just follow the crowds for the football. While the nearest stations to the ground are probably Pomona or Exchange Quays on the Eccles line, they not particularly convenient for getting to or from the away end. However, when leaving, if you have a train to catch after the game, avoid Old Trafford Metrolink at all costs! The best bet is get the train from Old Trafford station to Piccadilly - the entrance to the station is immediately outside the away end'.

and heres a link showing the location of the ground

haha, yes! we have another fan! hurray! a word of warning, don't get a shirt from the megastore, £55 for a shirt with a name on, JJB you could get one for about £40-£45. Scarfs are on sale everywhere around Old Trafford on matchdays
 
What's all this Adriano talk? I'm not sure that's a great idea, especially for the money. Wasn't that impressed with him when I've seen him, plus with adjustment to prem and all that...no thanks.
 
Man Utd should sign:

MWHAHAH!
 
Just heard Inter paid nearly 17million for Ibrahimobitch from Juve. They got ripped off. So it would seem Martins or Adriano will either be leaving.
 
So when's this Senna deal going to wrap up then? Hearing rumours that Diarra might be an option again, he's definitely class, but the price being quoted before (more than Essien) was just absurd. Maybe Silvestre plus cash option, but personally I'd be almost as happy with Senna. If it's just the holding role do you really need to spend that much? What's the marginal benefit of the £20m extra!

I think we should splash the cash on diarra, he is worth it. Plus the guy has many years ahead of him as he is only 25 and is world class. Money shouldnt be an option. We need to stop being tight and start acting like the big club we are. Think of how much millions United generate through ticket prices,advertisments,sponsors etc and 20mil+ is nothing to this club.
 
And Bati was also saying that he would be interested in joining Man Utd at the time. But since we didn't get him he had to settle to going to Roma and winning the scudetto. :D
 
On LOAN? A reserve keeper on loan? :lol:
At least this shows we haven't given up on our young keepers.
 
I think we'll soon buy him cuz its a season long loan with the option of buying him at the start of next season. So basicaly it allows us to kinda try him out before paying the money.
 
I dont think its a loan according to Football365 with Tomasz Kuszczak..its a permanent switch. In exchange, West Brom will get defender Paul McShane and goalkeeper Luke Steele on a permanent basis too.The impressive Ben Foster will again ply his trade with Watford next season,this time in top flight football in the Premiership.
