im getting sick of premiership football--- people like mike taking the place of real footy fans inside the grounds... people are far too quick to call for the managers head when there is no one better to do the job...... people talking about allerdice as the next man u manager.
allerdice or ferguson? know which one i would rather had

If Sam Allardyce got the job I would be selling my season ticket... no offence to him. but the football is boring to watch..
Man Utd and Arsenal are the best to watch from a neutral point of view IMO, unlike the likes of chelscum, Bolton liverpool

You've got a season ticket and I only ever watch them on telly so cant I cant really comment on all the games, just seems to me that there is only ever a good atmosphere when teams like Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City play you, when teams like Bolton, Boro and the "lesser" teams of the premier league it seems as if you fans aint really arsed as they know they are going to win.
Been to OT about 10 times to watch England and its never seemed to be a great atmosphere compared to somewere like Anfieldm, but as i say im only watching UTD games on telly and sometimes you cant always pick it up

Yes I'm sure I would. But how big your team is doesn't reflect how good you are. You can be the biggest team in the world and if you get knocked out of the CL group stages then
I love the way Arsenal play their football. In fact I'd go as far to say that I think when they're at their peak they play better football than any other club I know.

Disagree... i still say ours is more attractive than yours... Ronaldo, Rooney etc ...
I used to hate arsenal, but they dont bother me now because they arent really a threat... yours last prem campaign was a disaster... 10+ defeats for you guys aint good at all

LMAO
Rooney I'll give you, but Ronaldo I won't. A - He's shoot at set pieces which is surprising for someone who is supposed to be 'great' and B - His stepovers look like he's having spasms in his legs. He very rarely get's himself anywhere with them. Take a look at Ronaldo's (Brazil) stepovers and note the difference. Actually fooling the defender instead of just making yourself look like a tit.
Your arguement above is irrelevant also. Finishing 4th and getting to the finals of the CL isn't exactly 'crap'. Even we can't compete with the amounts of money Chelsea are spending, all will change next year though with the increased gate receipts.

Gate receipts dont have that much of an impact on clubs making money, ud be surprised
