I know he no longer plays, and is as irrelevant now as ever he was. But, ladies and gents, I present to you……..

Drumroll………

Joey Barton.

The case for the prosecution rests, M’Lud.

We have yeah!

Seeing the upper trinity closed was rubbish, the day we got back up it felt brilliant looking up to my left and seeing everyone back up there.

Just shows how fickle fans are though doesn't it! We has 3/4 years of dross, finally got relegated and closing the upper trinity was necessary.

After 1 season back up we have a waiting list of 30,000 for a ST..... :ROFLMAO:

Proud to say I stuck by my team throughout, some great memories from our Championship days.

Same here pal, all the way down to league one and back again, 2 relegations on the bounce 😭

We've got a hard-core fanbase of about 20k who are there whatever and then a load of fairweather fans.

You guys are probably the same but just on a higher scale.

As a side note, do you have less privilege's as a STH this season as opposed to back then?

Our price keeps going up but every year we get things which used to be included in the cost, taken away from us!
 
OK, you have me distracted from work big time, and me and my mate are now compiling a list (not even restricted to 10)

Bruno Fernandes
Richarlison
Antony (but I think this is a bit unfair, because I think his face is just a bit Richarlisonesque)
Joey Barton
Suarez
John Terry
Craig Bellamy
James Maddison (My mate: hates the little dart thing he does)
Robertson
Harvey Elliot (My Mate gave a long description as to why, and all I can say is that we retracted from the list when we realised he wasn't a local Liverpool lad, but seems to be a Londoner. His reasons became instantly irrelevant)
Fowler (
Simeone
Mourinho
Diego Costa
Jordon Ayew (My Mate: He reminds me of El Hadj Diouf. I did ask, why not just pick Diouf then?)
El Hadj Diouf
Martin Keown
Chris Sutton
Robbie Savage
Graeme Souness
Neil Lennon
Neil Warnock

I think the manager would have to be a top fella. One of football’s good guys, to show them all the error of their ways.

Juan Mata for me. One of the nicest fellas in the game.
 
Actually can we add Pogba to the list. Another player with immense talent that seemed to let it drift away to the point of being banned. He should have won lots more than he did and even in an average United side he hardly set the world alight on a regular basis.

Great shout in Barton but can we also add into what is becoming a football room 101 -
Casemeiro - another serial diver and whinger
Ronaldho - banned in Saudi for a gesture to the fans
Vincent Kompany - a manger that has stuck to a plan all season that clearly isn't working.

So we don't get cup games, just priority to buy own seats, at the same cost as general sale.

We used to get 10% off in the clubshop but we haven't that many sales that's gone as well.

The one we have is loyalty points for away tickets, so it's banded when you get chance to buy based on how many you have...but we have fans with high points who always buy but then sell them on, keeping themselves as priority through the season, the club did bring in a ballot for 5% of the allocation for away games, so you just have to be lucky.

I can't really think of any perks other than worshipping Gary every week 🤣

Casemiro a diver and whinger???? Having watched virtually every Utd game since he has played, I must have missed that. I'm not saying he has never gone over easy like all footballers,or complained, but I wouldn't put him anywhere near someone like Bruno.

Is Ronaldho a mix between Ronaldo and Ronaldinho?

I saw the gesture to fans. It really seemed like nothing, but you don't get away with "highly offensive" stuff like that these days. He's lucky he only got a 1 game ban and not beheaded.
