have sky asked mike the question? have sky door stepped mike ashly over the way the club has been run?

I don't give a s*** about mike ashley, the geordies want some questions answering as i posted. My criticism is sky doing the bidding for one club.

Mike ashley trending today and why? cos lots of geordies asking sky why the f*** the roving reporters haven't been door stepping mike ashley asking the same damn question they've asked of the glazers? they know where ashley f***ing lives too. It's almost like sky have a vested interest in man united being successful and don't give a s*** about the geordies.

Confirmation the rearranged game against Manchester United will be played on Thursday May 13, kicking off at 8.15pm. Away fixture against Burnley also now set for Wednesday May 19. hope the manc t***s pitch invade the remaining games. No surprise our club has bent over backwards to accommodate them, that the premier league have said f*** all, and that everyone involved is like 'yep just another day in the office'

sly got one their roving reporters to door stop the glazers. Talk about doing their bidding for man united.

under 18s played derby earlier on - won 3-0 goals from kaide Gordon& Frauendorf. We rested the youth cup side, no musialowski, balagzi and obviously morton was absent. Just to compare and contrast the homer referees. Today derby's right back catches the ball like michael jordan to stop it going out of play. Should be a booking but no action taken. Then 5 minutes later, the same derby lad cynically chops one of ours breaking away, booking all day, freekick given, no booking and so it went on. Away from the s*** standards of refereeing - Mabaya was superb in midfield, similar to balazigi, hard to shake him off the ball when he gets moving. Scanlon was subbed on, played at left back, similar gait to trent but obviously very young and just getting going with the side. It was an excellent performance from all round

Middlesbrough have been deducted the points for illegally calling off their game with Blackburn on December 21st and they will be required to play the game at a later date. They were also fined £50,000 and they will be required to meet the costs of the FA hearing. Everton should have also got awarded 3 points when city played hooky with 'covid' earlier in the season.

The problem is the genie - the anti glazer protesters - is out of the bottle, and they are going to have a devil of a time putting them back in, by not only encouraging them, but also downplaying the vandalism and violence. The esl has been scraped but united fans aren't protesting that no matter how much sky try and make it seem that way, united fans want a rich overlord to buy them success, they don't want to play second fiddle to city and chelsea. Once fans are back in the ground and if united drop a few points and city look like they are strolling to another title there'll be more pitch invasions. Sky's mess, the premier leagues mess.

of course they will - because sky and all it's pundits bar souness legitimised their actions.

We might be without tyler morton for the tie. As i've said before the referee's at u23 level are s***e. Yesterday we had 2 players (Morton) and the manager sent off v leicester. It wasn't a dirty game by any stretch of the imagination but conditions were not great. After 10mins we had boyes sent off, straight red, for a last ditch tackle. After that the referee was blowing his whistle every two minutes. we had players booked for taking a throw in from the wrong position of two yards. Tyler gets brought on around the 70 min mark and gets booked. Then in the 93rd minute of the game morton having run the ball out of play for a goal kick, back heels the ball backwards while he runs to get himself back on to the pitch. For this he gets his second yellow for kicking the ball away. Ref blows final whistle and the manager goes over complains and he gets sent off too. Will be a shame for him to miss the semi-final cos of this d****ead of a referee.

sorry for linking talks***e but he has a point re the hypocrisy and self interest of gary neville

So Bill Gates is getting divorced from Melinda. Anyone wanna take one for the team?

It's all bulls*** isn't it. This isn't about 'the good of football'. Not even about 50+1 2003 Abramovich buys chelsea and begins to outspend united for targets. 2005 Glazer buys united out and the first gripe from fans before the deal is done is that this isn't an abramovich type takeover. 2008 sheik mansour takes over city and immediately gazumps united for a signing. Since then 8 years without a title for united, a cycle of Liverpool and City contesting the title and champions league, and they even fell out of the cl places. United fans with signs outside the ground yesterday with glazer out - gazprom in. The esl is just a means for united fans to try and justify longstanding gripe they aren't the ones with the deepest pockets anymore. I'm hearing rumours of a salary cap, needs to be a transfer cap too imho and massive clubs like the big six will have to accept a new competitive element of the league instead of billionaires buying success. It's one way or the other. It's a race to get a billionaire owner or there needs an overhaul of rules to limit billionaire rulers buying success.

For us presumably, given the way neville tried to drag us into today's debacle.

Watching fsg do the football side of business is like watching ready steady cook where you have a celebrity chef trying to make a michelin star meal out of 5 quids of shopping and they've bought a pot noodle and a mars bar and have 3 quid change. Don't know why gary neville hates on them, they've done more damage to this club in one season than any rival could possible have hoped for.

Should thank the big six for the esl farce, I mean there's always been a level of delusion over the competitiveness of the premier league, money distribution etc, but thanks to sheik mansour there's should be no doubt now. It's not a competition anymore. 1 side is financially in a different league to the rest and the results show it. Arsenal, united, spurs all out protesting cause there's no delusion among their fanbases that either their current owners can compete with city or that there's a benevolent billionaire out there who has their club crest tatooed to their arses who's willing and able to bankroll their team to success. They know exactly what they want and who is most likely to be able to provide it. There was a chance with financial fair play for others to be able to compete with oil money but as that's dead in the water they know so too is their chances under current owners. United will finish 2nd this season but there 'challenge' ended the same week it started. We won it by going 3/4 of the season without dropping a f***ing point. It's not sustainable to produce that level of performance season in season out without dropping points and burn out. Unless there's a fundamental change with some sort of attempt to make things more competitive - either transfer spend caps, wage caps, everyone is competing for 2nd place as things stand & for the foreseeable future. If others obtain their sheiks and they bankroll their team like they have man city and we don't, we'll get left behind like blackpool and bolton of the post war era. The sooner everyone involved deals with that reality of the situation the better for all of us.

cerefin wants to ban all super league teams from the cl next season. Good luck to him, hopefully he gets his way.

being linked with Yves Bissouma - if it happens and he sets up one chance, or scores 1 goal, he'll surpass everything gini has done this season. Think him and fab infront of a back four of gomez konate virgil robbo would be very difficult nut for leeds or newcastle to crack.

good take the money and f*** off. Onto the next set of s***c***s.

firmino - used him like a cart horse and now he's fit for the knackers yard. Bobby has scored 2 goals from 13 attempts inside the 6 yard box 9 of those @OptaJoe categorise as Big Chances Counting up to 6.1 eXpected Goals

course they f***ing did.

Sorry, klopp had this team of 'bottlers' top of the league despite injuries to everyone and meanwhile our journalists are telling everyone can't spend cos of covid from the summer into january and even this upcoming summer. Meanwhile the s***c***s that own us had signed up to a guarenteed cashcow of esl worth about 300m On the 30th jan - under pressure from our journo's and fanbase - oh alright here's a million quid go get a cb. Don't get me wrong jurgen's made poor subs and has loyalty to gini and firminio i can't fathom. If anyone f***ed this season it's the s***c***s that own us and all that sailed on their ship.

in fairness to our midfield. Fabinho has played the majority of it at cb cos our owners are d****eads, then we've played henderson alongside him at cb, cos our owners are d****eads. And thiago has had half a season out cos richardlson is a d****ead. Overall though milner, ox, keita, gini, offer f*** all as an attacking force and need to be binned with players who can.
