I need to update my Tom Tom map subscription.

Started up - typed in MANCHESTER and it said - not in Europe

(according to Fergie's first interview the Europa League doesn't count)

RobRoyal Has it been pointed out that Manchester United hasn't got an "L" in it?

No, but it's got an A, as in ALOL. :roll:

MU can survive with the income they generate, they may be disliked, but MC have a long way to get to be anywhere near MU.

Known as leveraged buyouts, from private equity investors. Instead of acquiring savings to invest, the owners take out a load of debt and use the business (in this case Man Utd) as collateral for the bank.

That means that Man Utd is almost entirely debt financed, which anybody will tell you is extremely risky. However, this risk and debt is not so much down to day to day operations of the club, so much as the risk taking approach the owners use. Which is why Man Utd fans like to protest in regards to them.

Man Utd 1-6 Man City

Basle 2-1 Man Utd

Man Utd 2-3 Blackburn

Three of the most desperate results in Ferguson's entire reign, all within a month or so of each other.

Worrying times I would imagine.

Not sure it's worse than 5-0 against Newcastle and 6-3 against Southampton within a week of each other.

That has to be the weakest Man Utd team to ever play in the Prem. I know they have a lot of injuries but also shows there lack of strength in depth. The penny pinching by the Glazers is really starting to hurt them now.

At the start of the season, there were those saying the De Gea looked a bit dodgy, and the usual Fergie apologists came on and said no, he was going to be brilliant......frankly, he has had half a season and looks like a skinny Simon Sheppard; his inability to deal with a basic high ball into the box isn't something that he is going to correct any day soon (he should be shown the video of our game yesterday as both Feds and the Ipswich keeper could teach him how to catch a high ball) and having a dodgy keeper is a disaster for a top 4 club (look at Arsenal since Lehman left).

And that is down - not to the Glazers (another knee jerk response by Fergie apologists whenever United lose) but to Fergie himself; why didn't he try and get the German keeper now at Bayern Munich?

Just watched the Blackburn debacle, De Gea has the physical presence of a child. Just had a look at his career and he only had 57 games for Atletico behind him when United signed him - perhaps a case of Fergie signing someone on pure potential, and it just isn't working out.

Dodgy signings.

And dropping arguably your best attacking player for having dinner out on Boxing Day evening.

Neuer was often quoted in papers in Germany as saying that he could see no reason whatsoever to play outside Germany. He claimed that Spain & England were good places to have holidays in but that he wanted to remain close to his family (in Germany).

Fair enough for him taking a risk, but why he is still playing only Fergie will know.

Is it possible to be 'bemused' and 'furious' at the same time?

These worrying times have seen us get level on points, slash the goal difference and get a trip to Amsterdam.

When are you going to start signing serious players again aggers?

You need to be going after the snijders, van der vaarts, modric's,etc of this world.

LOL @ trip to Amsterdam. Bet that's how the owners, manager and players are feeling about their champions league exit too.
