All of them or just TFK’s band of United fans who’ve stopped posting on their team thread?

All of them but especially the TFK lads who have mysteriously stopped posting.

On sale outside Old Trafford at the moment
:joy:

Can’t believe the only live game today features two also rans. Why not show something relevant to the title race like Spurs or Woolwich?

Woolwich?

Poor as United were up to mid December they weren’t conceding goals. Schweinstiger and Schneiderlin being out and more important Jones back made them porous at the back. Expect Martial will give Ivanovic a rough afternoon. Will big Louis let them go out and play? Not sure he has much option as a win is probably the only thing that can save him.

Big Louis is turning things around.

Can the United fans (@Mullach_Ide apart) log back in yet?

Terrific result for Big Louis tonight but it doesn’t get any easier. Next up one of their nemesis Swansea City visit Old Trafford. Swansea have won the last three meetings and won in the FA Cup at Old Trafford as well two seasons ago.

Jesus you’re a sad bastard Geoffrey. But you are wonderfully consistent.

Manchester United’s playing style is not what kit sponsor Adidas “want to see”, according to the chief executive of the German sportswear giant.

United began a ÂŁ75m-a-year deal with Adidas at the start of the season.

Herbert Hainer told Suddeutsche Zeitung “business with United is going very well” but expressed doubt about the team’s “way of playing”.

Manager Louis van Gaal’s possession-based approach has been criticised by fans, former players and the media.

Saturday’s 2-1 victory over Swansea was their first win in nine games, their worst run in 26 years.
In that time, the Red Devils slipped out of the top four in the Premier League and went out of the Champions League at the group stage.

Their record-breaking deal with Adidas is worth ÂŁ750m over 10 years.

Hainer said: “We sell more jerseys than expected, the foreign share is 60%. We are satisfied, even if the actual way of playing of United is not exactly what we want to see.”

Man U drawing 0-0 with Sheffield United from the third tier of English football coming up to the hour mark. Of course Man U are a large part of the reason why Sheffield United are languishing in the third tier. I was talking to a fellow from Sheffield during the week and he was saying nearly nine years on there’s still a seething rage at Bramall Lane at how Man U fielded a weakened team last day of the season which resulted in the ineligible Carlos Tevez scoring the goal to keep West Ham up at Sheffield United’s expense. All a matter of mere weeks before Tevez became the latest in a long line of West Ham players to sign for Man U.

Depay has the audacity to shoot. Van Gaal looks livid.

67 mins gone in the game, and 1 shot on target and that was for Sheffield Utd.

United fans leaving to beat the traffic.,
