The plastic club have robbed a group of U18’s a once in a lifetime chance to play a cup final infront of 60k fans instead opting for a 7k stadium in a training ground.
Totally bottled hosting it at the Etihad because the Red side of Manchester would fill their stadium for them
🔴🗣️Patrice Evra on Michael Carrick:
"I really don't understand the LACK of support behind Michael Carrick, he's one of us and he's doing very well. There's been NEGATIVE analysis from Scholesy, but also from Roy Keane and Gary Neville.
It annoys me because we want to be in the top four, and those comments are unnecessary, but this is what you do when you work in TV. You can’t be positive, you have to be NEGATIVE ."

An emotional Mugzy fights back tears after his emotional win over Clay Guida at RAF 06:
"I was you and dumb, I was in jail, selling dope, I got four of my cars repoed, I tried to kill myself four times, and now I'm on stage wrestling somebody I love. I can't even gather words."
Paul McCartney once called The Beach Boys’ ‘God Only Knows’ “the greatest song ever written” – and fans agree
He also previously described the classic as “one of the few songs that reduces me to tears every time I hear it” https://t.co/0Cfe50ZNuq
🇾🇪 A fantastic clip of Lou Macari from 1981, criticising the media about the biased nonsense they write about United. 44 years on, and nothing’s changed 🤦♂️
The bit at the end about City never being able to overhaul United because we’re the home of football is pure magic 👌🔴⚪️⚫️

🗣️Ticket price increases by stealth and the systematic marginalisation of fans
Yesterday the club announced the ticket prices for next season.
The fact the ticket prices were not frozen and the club did not follow the precedent set by other Premier League clubs, is really disappointing. Especially after serving up one of the worst teams in decades.
We have campaigned tirelessly with the FSA and in collaboration with other like minded fan groups to ensure the club know fan sentiment on ticket prices. Without these actions who knows what the club would have done otherwise.
Our thoughts:
👉Disappointing the club didn’t freeze season ticket prices for next season inline with other PL clubs
👉There are some stealth rises for
👉Our seniors facing effectively a 57% increases on next season. Our most loyal generational fans who have supported the club for decades
👉Exec club increased by 20%
👉The increase of 15% in car parking across the board
👉Category pricing for members. We announced long ago that dynamic pricing was coming after we had this confirmed by a source
👉Additional stringent measures being enforced by the club. We are supporting the club we love not applying for a mortgage
👉Attendance guidelines have increase to 16/19. This was only supposed to be implemented with supporting data. To our knowledge this has not been provided by the club
👉The fans are now directly paying for years of Glazer greed and generational damage they have caused to our club and fan base
These are all stealth increases to change the optics of the 5% increase across all Season Ticket Holders. Again, penny wise and pound foolish.
This is the first phase of reducing the amount of ST holders. We have always campaigned the club are trying to marginalise match going fans. Cutting the 50% OAP concession to 25% for those who had it is a total disgrace.
This also paves the way for there never being any new Season Tickets issued now.
Why would they do this if they are increasing non ST prices by more? It is also a stay of execution to put them up to whatever they want to if we ever move to a new stadium.
We also reiterate our views on the Fans Forum and the FAB. This is what we spoke to the club at length about.
The system needs a revision to be more democratic and accountable to fans. This is not an attack on the current members of these forums. However, a lens on the fundamentally flawed process of appointment to these forums is needed.
We will be campaigning for this to change.
We want a custodian of the club that puts fans first, cares about this once great institution. Instead, we have a club that is crumbling beneath our feet and we are expected to foot the bill for 20 years of Glazer decay and damage.
The elephant in the room is, and always been, the Glazer debt. The clubs losses include a £35 million payment to service this.
YOUR DEBT NOT OURS!
