    Happy for Ange. He should walk away and go somewhere less toxic.

    Fucking Levy. Spends nothing. Gets £100m champs league windfall. Fires the guy who won his first trophy for 17 years.

    United deserved nothing and got nothing and would have been relegated if Lester and Ipswich weren't so shit

    United are in a proper bind, just based on what we've actually seen in a few months I find it hard to believe that he's actually a coaching genius who needs a few players to come right, like he can't manage to get a tune at all until he brings in a new team?

    Even with the Europa League title, I don't think he is in a position to walk away and expect to land anything close to where he is now. Spurs fell from sixth to 16th in a season.

    Tomorrow will be the 8th Scottish cup final between Celtic & Aberdeen, Celtic having won 4 to Aberdeen's 3 of the previous 7. Probably the coolest thing about the fixture: the first one in 1937 saw the biggest attendance in world club fitbaw history: 147, 365 not including all the turnstile jumpers. Hyuge.

    Yes but last week's women's FA CUP FINAL between somebody and somebody else was attended by 18,145 PERSONS, some 4,500 of whom had actually paid for tickets.

    It makes on wonder who is the true poison there. Ownership/management has yet to figure it out.

    I stopped watching Arsenal Fan TV. All the interesting characters are dead or in jail.
    Plus Arsenal win too much these days. I replaced that with Man U fan reaction videos. Good shit.

    This fan base was acting like it was the end of the world when Man U started qualifying for the Europa League instead of Champions League 10-12 yrs ago. Now they're dealing with the reality of 17th place in the Prem. Every manager they hire is worse than the one before.

    I don't care either way, the schadenfreude i get is because of the media's insistence om mentioning them in every breath. As a Canadian i'm sick of Toronto dominating articles as if somehow they are a national side. I imagine it's similar in the U.S. but with New York and Los Angeles.

    When it comes to managers I think Van Gaal, was on to something. It's not a club, it's a brand. If people are still paying and reacting that's really all that's important.

    Fuck off Sheffield. Sunderland might be gash but they're fresh air compared to that lot.

    Next season's Prem will have more of a Northern flavor to it.

    Leeds, Burnley & Sunderland replace Leicester, Ipswich & Southampton.

    Leicester IS North , to anyone who lives in London.. lol

    I'd much rather see teams like Coventry make a comeback than fucking Burnley with Smug Scott in charge.

    Have we not had enough of Burnley?

    QPR, Coventry, Millwall etc make far more sense.

    I'd sooner have Norwich back than Leeds.

    Leeds think they're big time. Massive town, no competition, still crap and badly run.

    I'd rather have Leeds back & established, they are a Newcastle, Villa sized club it'd be better if they got their shit together again

    Yeah but they don't. They just show up and chat shit and the commentators and pundits lament their "sad plight" etc.

    I've a bee in my bonnet about them ever since they played Liverpool in the league Cup years ago.

    They all showed up with this "get at them" attitude, hacking and fouling, and lost anyways.

    Liverpool finish TOP with two fewer points than when Benitez finished 2nd and 1 more point than when Rogers finished 2nd.

    Tough business.

    I have to say that Lineker send-off, including the role he himself played in it, was one of the very very few genuine non-bullshit TV moments I've ever witnessed.

    I've had more than an axe to grind with him -he could have usefully been fired ages ago- but like a lot of wokesters when they finally came for him it was for something forgiveable.

    I have to admit I will miss him.

    Kelly Cates is ok. Can't stand that fucking Logan.

    Yesterday in many regards had the potential to be a highly significant day. If Forest and Villa had made the breakthrough with Newcastle, that might have shaken things up for a good few years, maybe permanently.

    United dropping out won't hurt them. They'll pull £100m out of the sofa.

    But had Chelsea missed out that might have been that.

    Mugs. Fucking mugs club..
