Weekends Games

[JackBuddy]

is that not the aim of the game.

also shockwave i thought you supported united? who do you support?

I'm referring to teams that park the bus.

Tottenham have now experienced the "European Hangover". I believe it's the worst one of it's kind.

This European hangover thing is ********, if a team has to fly back from Siberia then fair enough. It's no different to playing a mid-week Carling Cuo game.

From what i heard they were shocking but that was SSN so i will be watching MOTD to make my judgement.

Well take into account that you are playing much better teams in the Champions League opposed to the first few rounds of the CC, and there's no flying abroad involved in the FA & CC, that kind of stuff takes the sting out of teams, especially playing most, if not the full team that played during the week. I think United last season dropped a shed load of points following fixtures mid-week in the CL. I'll tell you, European Football isn't all about big money income and being more recognised. That's why, in my opinion, you won't be title contenders, in fact, you'll find it hard to retain your position in the top 4.

That statement would be true if we qualified for the CL or not. If United played their first team in every domestic cup and league game like most other teams do then it would have the same effect anyway. Fly to Ukraine or Siberian Russia on a cold, wet December evening then fair enough but we managed fine when we were in the UEFA cup (against some decent opposition teams, too).

Not saying that the games won't take it out of the team but it won't be much different to having a mid-week game.

I'm basically saying that playing wednesday wasn't to blame for the defeat. As a team we struggle to break down teams that park the bus and defend well.

Why do you support united just out of interest luce lol

Nobody has been around for the past couple of seasons? What does this comment mean? I and other users were here last season? The majority have been banned recently. Adam appears to be banned, Jack.LFC I think is lost looking for someone to buy Liverpool, AlexOC has recently come back from a ban for attempting to access the cpanel and I've been allowed off the autoban list because users like you had left and the sports section appeared to have died. I state users like you, those being the ones not banned and free to post however having nothing to post about because they're club have been inactive over the summer. Well let's be honest, it's hardly been the summer which has bought fruitful delights to Old Trafford is it?

You've signed a homeless tramp who Fergie has admitted he's never watched before and has recently been dropped from the reserve team because the coach doesn't deem him good enough. And you bought him in the region of four to seven million! You've also signed a Mexican lad for around ten million who I'll be honest, looks a tidy player. But then you've also bought an ex-pub league player who wasn't good enough to get into Fulham's side. This being Fulham a decent mid-table outfit, not a team who should be challenging for the title.

You've bought in three signings, could have been four however Ozil decided to reject the prospect of signing for United because Real Madrid came calling. So then, so far you've signed a tramp, pub league player and a lad who looks alright. Not quite on the same levels as Arsenals apparent signing of Given, Bellamys move to Cardiff and Balotelli, Silva, Yaya Toure etc to Manchester City. You did get that right? Cardiff making bigger headlines than United.

So with all of that I've not seen much of Clowgon or you. You appear to have run off whilst we've been discussing the latest transfer goings on and discussing the previous weeks games which you appear to have missed whilst emerging towards the back-end of the transfer window, I presume to dodge transfer questions.

Credit to Arran though, he's the only one whose stuck around. A true fan in my opinion, he'll stand by his club. He wont hide away when they're not making big headlines. He doesn't just show up when he has something to shout about.

As for Manchester City fans finally coming round to us being 'crap' I have to admit, I generally don't understand? You've come back onto the forum five days after we put 3 (three) past Liverpool after collecting a valuable point from WHL, a ground where last season Arsenal and I believe Chelsea, failed to pick up a point. If you believe we're getting deluded with life at Manchester City then you're wrong. If anything, we're on a bigger high than ever.

This year we have a realistic chance of finishing higher than an ageing Manchester United. Ferguson has stayed too long, he should have left a year or two ago. He's not got much money to spend, every year he stays it's another ounce of pace deducted from his team. Chelsea look strong, Tottenham look good, Manchester City look to have improved and Arsenal seem to have a bit more steel about them. As for Manchester United? Well an opening day win against a new side in awe of there return and a lucky point away at Fulham they don't look too good.

Speaking to Manchester United fans who go week in week out cracks are appearing in the stands, murmurs are occurring. Fergie out. Fergie out.




I believe November is before February? Are you not going to the game at COM's? I mean, if you wish to play that game may I ask can we play too? So come on, where shall we meet at COM's in November? I'll buy you a drink, my treat.

As for Manchester United away in February, I may aswell. I mean I went in January. Although I must admit I'm a bit disappointed in the contradiction you've made on a single page. I mean fair enough if the two posts were on separate pages but come on, contradicting yourself in the space of minutes? I'll explain. You hinted to Alex whether or not he's going to the Manchester derby away from home knowing full well tickets are hard to come by in the away end for such a high level game. Although in your OP you stated it's a shame the West Ham match is on ESPN. Why is this? You hinted to Alex that he's not that good of a fan if he's facing the possibility of not going in February although you're not turning up to a home game where it'd be easy to gain tickets? Of course you can hide behind the fact that you live far away however surely if you're angling for a bite by teasing Alex you're going to get a bite.

I think it's a shame that users still result to the teasing about going to games. Sure, a year or two ago maybe. But now? The sports section is a small community, most appeared to have matured. It's a shame the OP appears to have not followed the crowd and has decided to still tease about games (bit of a shock considering she followed the crowd in supporting Manchester United).

Oi I'm here too
