Think INEOS will have seen enough by March/April and make a change then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect the new man to be announced in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest lost in exactly the same fashion we did at Old Trafford. It will be a different story at VP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Forest sat deep and didn't give them so much space. They are toothless if you do that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves are in 11th and on an unbelievable home run so I'd make them favourite to win when they play Man. United as Neto should be fit to start and he'll run them ragged. Pretty feasible if Man. United lose their next two they'll be bottom half going into February. In any case 7th is a bad position for them anyway based on their general expectations most seasons and finishing a comfortable 3rd last time out.

Popular Post jayEm Posted December 30, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2023 Tuesday night BBC had a headline in their main news section asking whether this incredible comeback spelt the beginning of a new era for the club Tonight they have a headline in roughly the same spot: "Man Utd ‘inconsistent and awful’ - Neville on latest defeat" Shows both the ridiculous reactionary nature of things and the special treatment United get when it comes to coverage. Shouldn't be surprised but it's annoying. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of the morale boost throughout the football pyramid if they went down and were playing Blues, Plymouth and Rotherham every week. Honestly I'd have a permanent smile. In the immortal words of Al Powell, it's time they woke up and smelt what they've been shovelling. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
