I like the fact that we are now being referred to as "Man Utd/United" instead of that horrible "Man U/Man Yew" expression.
Hmm... my first time at Old Trafford, Bobby Charlton was still playing... I feel a bit old now.

No he's not. But the way he spoke publicly about the struggles he had when his wife died and how hard it was to steer himself and their kids through that was great. I know he had had affairs and shit, but the struggle is real and it's a good thing that men speak out about this kind of thing, all too often we're expected to 'be a man' about it and to hear that a multi-millionaire's struggles are the same as the rest of ours can only help others in a similarly dark place.

True, fair play. That aside, he has come out with some dire shit over the years.

This is probably the first time I will cheer a Utd player, ever.When fans return to stadiums I foresee nationwide support and cheering for Rashford.
Unprecedented for any Man Utd player

To add; talk about impeccable timing, Mr rashford

Rashford has become the public face of what is a very simple problem with a very simple (and inexpensive) solution. It's completely uncontroversial since who can object to feeding hungry kids bar the odd crazed plonk on twitter (see post #775)
Last nights impressive performance has utterly nothing to do with this issue of course but because he is so strongly associated with his cause, there is no way anyone can talk about one without the other coming up.
Even better Bozo can't come out and criticise Rashford since he is sufficiently self-aware to realise that he is completely on the wrong side of public opinion on this so he has to heap praise on Rashford whilst desperately trying to convince people that the elephant in the room is actually a fluffy rabbit. It's fun watching him squirm.

The number of twonks who keep coming out with "Well I can make a meal for £1.50" is something I find eternally depressing. So fucking what? not everyone possesses such cooking skills and far more significantly has the £1.50 either. Even Jamie Oliver can't make a nutritous meal for £0.00. I believe this scheme has been costed out at £15 per kid per week which equates to £2.15 or £3.00 per meal depending on whether you count weekends or not. No-one is suggesting prime beef or caviar at those prices.

Tone deaf, inflexible, out of touch, and incompetent.
To which we could add, if we are being less charitable: vicious, heartless, bigoted, brutal, and very, very stupid indeed.
When the tipping point comes, it's going to make a tsunami look like a kid stomping in a puddle.

I went to watch the second team once for a pound, if I recall. I think Dennis Irwin was playing.
I was far keener on The Willows and am still annoyed about the Leeds result.
Still, the Salford Reds are very much rising.
(Don't go out tonight, if you're not red and white).....

Dunno how much it was for my first visit as my big brother paid me in to the new cantilever stand (United Road). When I started going myself with mates, I think it was 40p to get in the Stretford End. We moaned about it when they put it up to 50p 
I too was a Salford Red... and a bit of a hoolie during the Tommy Docherty era
Occasionally went to the Willows but more often jibbed in at Station Road for Swinton RLFC when they still had a ground.

I went to Swinton a few times too, because we'd moved south and when I came back to visit my relatives, I'd go anywhere for some "proper" rugby, but my heart belongs in the shed.Dunno how much it was for my first visit as my big brother paid me in to the new cantilever stand (United Road).

Never really watched the match at Swinton, to be fair... spent the duration in the bar 
Where the ground was is a B&M store and Morrisons now. Tragic.

According to that article he bought it for home protection. The company he bought it from alluded to it coming from abroad but stops short of actually saying that. The ears are hideous.
