OTD 49 years ago at 1500hrs GMT my first Manchester United game kicked off. From that point I have been enraptured, enraged, elated and enervated by them. Sometimes all at once. An unconditional love supreme #MUFC

This is outstanding. Man City's £900m of cheating was only ever the starting point: the extra revenue that illicit spending unlocked was always going to amount to a much larger sum. The question is: how much larger? substack.com/@sportingint...

Today is 2026-10-27, the sun sets at 17:02:28 GMT and the grand auld stretch tonight was 56 mins and 45 secs. #GrandStretch #GrandDrawingInNow

If it’s good enough for Camus, it’s good enough for Carrick.

Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo are currently dropping bricks on their toes rather than get fit and play in this United.

The can has been kicked down the road I see. What in under fuck is that kind of decision? How is he going to motivate a bunch of men that don’t seem to a) give a shit about the club or the manager b) know that he is now a zombie c) get their wages no matter what pish they serve up?

Despite the dire performance on the pitch, it was great to see how a huge amount of United fans turned on the ownership on Sunday. There are many reasons why good players have gone bad when they go to United and I don’t know the answer, but leaking roofs and changing rooms don’t help (imho natch)

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

I’ve put out the bin (blue) washed and dried the dishes, brought in the washing, sorted that and now it’s time for the scratcher, a tad jet lagged after falling back an hour and then gaining an hour last night. Hopefully I can now ramble to myself until I fall asleep….

Foyle Harps at the Brandywell 🤝 Great to have the local 2019s side at Friday's game to show off their recent silverware collection!

Pal just asked me what I think caused the biggest problem at Man Utd since Sir Alex announced his retirement. For me it’s no contest, the loss of David Gill was catastrophic and we’ve never recovered from that. Woodward and now this bunch of cowboys have caused immense damage.

Love NFL me

Et Tu Bruno?

Brian Kerr - the ex Ireland manager - said on Irish tv as United got tore another new one at Como, that players that go to United seem to get worse. They never improve.

I’m not sure any of our players - on the pitch or on the bench - would get into that Bournemouth side.

Buckle up lads

Hopefully we will also be spared that huddle carry on now, with no Bruno telling every one what he’s having for his dinner, starter, mains and side and dessert.
