Excellent performance today. Dance of a champion. We were far better team. Should have score more.

Valencia to Cole - Catch me if you can

Hernandez, what an amazing player. What movement. He pushes the last line of the opponent deep in their half. I am expecting a bid for him from Real Madrid, for about 40mils

So clear penalty after Lampard`s hand, everyone saw it. Web and ref on the line were in great position.

Congratulations United!!! Well done!

Quoting my self

Part about Hernandez. I still can't believe that we got him for about 7-8 mils and that United spent same amount on Bebe???

I think also that one player did not get a proper chance in UTD. Gabriel Obertan. Would like to see more from him.

[boomer39]

explain what that has got to do with the comments i made because I'm standing by what i wrote as a fair point. if it upsets you tough sh*t because that was my intention!

talking about winning the league... we won it in 1947,you in 1967, lots more before and after. football is NOT about 1,2 10 seasons etc, but about history and records.. but for you lot, history only started in 1992/3....

Mate you wouldn't like to see more of Gabriel Obertan hes been shit in the res and i wouldn't be suprised if we get rid at end of the season he is not good enough for United, I watched him last week against Liverpool, I no he scored but he was shit!! hes fast i no but cant do anything with the ball, and he moans all the time, So much more quality in our res. he needs to go.

in brief (from my own head btw )

we were formed in 1878 by railway men and were not to clever apart from a brief spell under ernest magnal after that we struggled for money and were a bit of a yo yo club until sir matt joined the club

he invested in youth and won the title with a squad average age of just 22 in back to back seasons playing cavalier attacking football that has become a brand

making the club the first english team in history to enter the european cup whilst in 58 this ended in disaster some would say that this me included made manchester united the biggest club in the land

if not for munich and at an age of 22 its pretty fair assumpmtion that at the very least the title would have followed again in 58 as it was looking very good pre munich and also real madrids stanglehold in europe would have been cut

as it was we started again 8 players were lost and some never played again we slid down the league winning only once or maybe twice before the season ended and finished about 9th

busby then slowly rebuilt the squad adding law and best and won the league in 65 and 67 before being the first english side in 68 to win the europen cup all be it belatedly by about 10 years

after that busby went and come back for a bit the team declined injuries to key players like law and general ageing of players like charlton seen utd slip not helped by george best and his boozing

we were relegated in 74 not by dennis law btw as some people think to win the second division and bounce back after that we became a bit of a cup side losing in 76 then winning in 77 stopping liverpool win a proper treble in 77 losing again in 79 but won it twice under big ron in 83 and 85

after ron got sacked in 86 fergie took over a manager who had achieved amazing succes in scotland by breaking up the celtic and rangers domination even winning the cup winners cup with aberdeen against real madrid

after what looked to be a good start we were near the bottom when he joined he took is too second in his first full season the next 2 years though were poor and some fans were calling for his head

he changed the old guard got rid of the drinkers apart from robson and in 1990 won the fa cup in a game that seen the emergence of ian wright after a cup winners cup in 91 it wasnt too long before we won the newly formed PL in 93

and thats when our history started

you started by robbing evertons ground

and were a bit of a yo yo clib like us you started big time when shankly set the wheels in motion and got you from the second division doldrums in the 60's

in fact in the 60's we both had a remarkably similar succes rate regarding trophies won you just lacked the glamour

after united declined in the early 70's you became a force at home and in europe by becoming the second engliah team to win europen cup in 77 stopped from doing a proper treble by united ( did i mention that earlier) after that admittedly you ruled the roost and added more silverware until kenny dalglish decided to walk out for a bigger club stating too much pressure

or was it a declining squad only he knows really after that and a few failed managers you beacme the worst team in history to win the CL i think milan had bet on themselves at half time not to turn up cos the thought it was already won

you won old big lugs for the 4th sorry 5th time i forget i dont hear it very often

you the managed to scrape a win in the fa cup in 2006 and the rest is history

so there you go boomer is that enough history of the 2 clubs

You might find yourself wrong on that fact Boomer lad

Still at least you don't sound bitter lmaooooo

[boomer39]

[mrgasman]

please explain how!!

Does the fact that Utd first won a league title in 1907-08 not actually slam the point home enough

what i was delicately trying to say was that all we hear from you lot is that we have never won the "premiership", as tho' this is when football started! is history not "faactt"?
how am i wrong???

obviously you know sweet fa about our club!!!! what a load of cobblers... no disrespect to northampton..

[mrgasman]

how am i wrong???

Well this is true you have never won a premiership title

But a league title is a league title no matter what they decide to call the league itself. Utd has one of the very best histories well beyond 1992 as the red's post above is testament to.
To say history only started for Utd in 92 is rather lame to be fair given what they had achieved previously.
Ok so league history ended for Liverpool in 1990 and only a liar would say that watching Utd lift their 19th title wont leave a bitter taste.

The true measure of greatness is league titles (no matter what the leagues called) but you already know this

[boomer39]

Does the fact that Utd first won a league title in 1907-08 not actually slam the point home enough

and when did we first win the league???????????????????????? 1900/01
what is your point??

[yasminandrio]

what i was delicately trying to say was that all we hear from you lot is that we have never won the "premiership", as tho' this is when football started! is history not "faactt"?
how am i wrong???

instead of concentrating on UNITED you should start concentrating on your own team and your big game tonight, I know you love talking about United but hay man ur boring FACCT

[mrgasman]
