I was thinking those lines as well, 'congratulations, you've earned the right to be beaten by Barcelona'
We got some talent out on loan! Lukaku, De Bruyne, Courtois, hope to see them come back!!!

Cheers in advance.
 Probably around the same time St Totteringham becomes funny. We could be waiting a while

Lukaku has looked good all season. Chelsea would be daft to loan him out again.

Don't see what the problem is? Celebrating getting the final spot into the biggest club competition at the expense of your biggest rivals, on the last day of the season, after being written off and miles off the pace only 2 months ago?

Arsenal have done well this season, and credit to them after all the shit they had. Might actually be able to buy some decent players now and get to the last 16 this year!
Did anybody in North West get massively stuck in traffic after games yesterday? Was a joke.
Steve, how was your first game?

I would say that Spurs threw the opportunity away when we were points clear, Arsenal did well to catch up.

St Totteringham Day isn't meant to be funny? Although this year it was a bit due to the nailbiter last day scenario.

good m8, cant argue with ten goals.
The united away fans were awesome, didnt shut up the whole game and were mostly louder than the entire west brom contingency

Been to many United games at OT, and usually you can hear people coughing every now and then rather than singing. Home fans are shite. The away fans obviously found their voice for Fergie going, bet he was pissed you didn't win
The best home fans in the league are by far Liverpool & Newcastle.

apparently the away fans are always noisy like that, and yeah are generally louder than the home fans at OT. Perhaps they are more hardcore because they are travelling.
would be awesome at OT if all fans were like that.

The only place to be at Old Trafford is the Stretford End. That's where all the singing happens, top atmosphere and stand up for a lot of the game too. I only get tickets for there when I go.
The big stands along side the pitch have no atmosphere. I sat in there once and you felt like if you spoke you'd get the death stare off the people around you. It's weird, thousands and thousands of people all sat in near silence.

It's the same at most grounds tbh, one section where people sing and the rest of the crowd are quiet. Apart from the away fans who are completely going off their tits from the moment they enter the stadium to the moment they leave

I've witnessed similar at OT. Not having a pop either as our home support is shit 9 times out of 10.
Our away support is awesome tho. But as said, its usually the hardcore who will travel, and are more likely to be vocal.

Like where my FIL and BIL sit. Couldn't believe it when I went. They are fucking fanny's anyway. I keep telling them to go to an away game but they won't go out of their comfort zone with 60k United fans around them.

I'd love to go to a United away game. Would like to do away at Arsenal or Chelsea. Bouncing round like nutters with Gary Neville and Paul Scholes

Exactly this at OT. Stood up and was asked to sit down, WTF Obviously the Stretford end has the more hard core fans their, not sat in their I dont think before.

It boils my piss. My inlaws are season ticket holders, and live 10 miles from the ground and get to go to every home game. Then they get there and sit down all game and occasionally clap.
What a fucking waste.

The one thing I hate about some games, is when you get a numpty behind you that gives the worlds shittest commentary of the events unfolding

This is why I am not renewing my ST. I get non-stop bullshit from the bloke behind me. Plus as said away games are better, so the aim is to do more of those next year instead.

One game I was at the guy in front of me basically spent the entire match calling everyone of our players a useless cunt. I was wondering why he bothered going.
