It shouldn't say Manchester United at all, it should say "Manure" lolz! #fumin

"I very please to be here. I look forward to play and show my qualities. I speak to Gaston Ramirez. He say it very nice but he say, "watch out for Alpine, man, he will call you Fartin Craperes and say you lazy asseshole".

The coin had a hot side and cold side. Fact.

What about a classic white polo shirt?

The train home after the EFL final is going to be horrendous if we lose.

Should have gone: 1. STs with two or more EFL matches 2. All other STs [arguably not necessary to have two ST windows but does help stop system crashing on day 1 and gives some seat selection priority on a "merit" basis to those who have been most interested in this cup] 3. Members with 10+ matches (home or away), plus members who went to every EFL home cup match and don't already qualify (not many people in the second group to take tickets away from other members but if you've been to all our home ties in the cup I think you deserve a final ticket) 4. Members with 8+ matches (home or away), plus anyone who went to Be'er Sheva away or the away-leg of the EFL Semi-final and doesn't already qualify 5. Members with 6+ matches (home or away) 6. Members with 5+ matches (home or away) etc. until sold Getting down to "Members + 2 home" is pretty ridiculous. That's only 1 in 10 of our home matches this season. Away fans with a bunch of games, people who regularly attended this competition, people who contributed to our brilliant support at Anfield or those who spent the time and effort travelling to the Middle East should clearly be treated better than people who have only managed two homes. If there was a really material financial benefit in trying to flog memberships (ie. something that translates meaningfully into what we see on the pitch) then I could understand it but how many extra memberships have we sold? Even if it was 5k, that's only £100k revenue. I can't imagine we've suddenly sold more than that.

Good dinosaur.

Team should do that more often, even if their regular keeper is decent. It messes with the other team's mind.

I would back us to lose a penalty shoot-out against most professional or semi-professional teams in the country, to be honest. I think we've got plenty who would miss and I can't imagine Forster saving a penalty.

Well, that's an interesting point, actually. We were actually very good indeed for the first 25 minutes or so and could have blown them away. We lost confidence when they scored (from a slightly flukey deflected cross). After we lost confidence they were able to dominate the ball and won comfortably in the end. So, whilst the end result and overall 90 was indeed "pants" - I would say that was more mental than physical. Physically, we were all over them in the first 25 mins and our usual failure to stick it in the net more than occasionally is what cost us a 2 goal lead.

The fabled Top 7.

Slagging off my Mrs. I'll 'ave ya!

Yes!

But a Ferrari performs in a way that a lot of other cars can't. Most of these watches do nothing, in terms of output, that a £10 Casio can't do. So you're paying for craftsmanship for its own sake, or for investment purposes, or to show off. I would imagine the third category is most common. That's not a value judgment, just my expectation.

Gray is basically Redmond. Got all the raw attributes, needs coaching.

Well, they were talking about the "top 7" (even if they didn't realise it) for some reason. So the answer to that is that it has happened. It happened the last two seasons. And it nearly happened the season before. So the obvious answer is: you become a solid mid-table club, and you have a good season when one of the clubs with a massive budget underachieves.

You were doing ok until the last paragraph which has reduced this from a solid 6/10 to a rather flat and uninspiring 2/10.

I have that flag!

It also depends if they are on the blob or not.

You miss a lot of what's really going on watching on TV. And a lot of the pundits are inarticulate morons.

Bournemouth, Glasgow, NJ.... a man of the world.

I hope something works out for you!

Haha! Well, I do commend their effort Actually, I did think about you and feel guilty when I wrote that. There will never be a perfect system. I think that match should certainly count for priority for European aways but I'm not sure it should be treated that importantly in the context of a domestic cup final. I think most people accept that for a cup final it will be season tickets first, then whatever's left on a descending scale based on number of matches attended, rather than number of obscure matches attended. Where the club has arguably been unfair here is in excluding away matches from that calculation. Your situation is probably pretty unique, unfortunately! Are you heading over? Surely for the cost of flights it's worth trying to get a ticket through "secondary" channels? The marginal additional cost, all things considered, shouldn't be that high?

I'm not sure that's necessarily true. I'm sure the minimum allocation must be provided on a sale-or-return basis. It would just be unfair otherwise. That's why we often only take the minimum - so that there isn't a financial risk.
