Pep cheats ? Never ,I refuse to believe that a man caught twice for using steroids ,and who has employed the biggest drug cheating dr in the world of sport would ever deliberately tell his team to tactical foul ,I mean apart from everyone at Barca revealing the ‘6 second rule’ and the City coaches telling them to commit tactical fouls in the training session shown on that documentary ,and the statistical evidence ..what evidence is there ?
And certainly it wouldn’t be accepted at a club like City with their owners who have shown nothing but strict application of the football laws since they took over.

I agree.

City get a remarkably easy ride for being, in essence, the dark side.

You know, with Wan Bissaka I'd completely forgotten about Dalot. Not even on the bench or being talked about.

What's the best way to grab a pair of OT tickets for a one off trip? Don't much fancy paying the membership fee just for one match

Then you’ll be paying above face value. You can’t by a ticket without a membership from United.

The best way is to buy a membership then be first to get an email on the multiple releases throughout the the season. All pre Christmas games are sold out I think. The remaining games will go to ballots to official members in the next few months.

Thanks for your support.

There are a few decent agencies who don't charge rip off prices. I can put you in touch with someone I've used if you send a pm

Thanks, I'd stump up one membership but one for each ticket holder for one match just doesn't seem worth it (think I have that right). Might see if I can get some home tickets for local matches, Blades game is likeliest as we can honestly say we're supporters and all four of us are registered having been last season.

Just remembered I saw Ronaldo miss a sitter against SUFC last time they were in the prem. Ferguson just yelled at him to run back for some defensive cover - this was the season before he really hit goal scoring form.

I might be wrong but I think you’ll find the blades will also insist on a Sufc membership before selling tickets for a Manchester United game now they’ve been promoted.

If you won’t be a member you’ll be paying a lot more than face value. Been advising mates for years. There are no cheap tickets for United. You want one at face value join the club membership scheme or be fleeced by a reseller or a tout.

I’ve a mate with 3 sons that has had tickets for the four of them for one or 2 games a season over the last few years but it’s needed membership.

Our next league game is, would you fathom it, a Saturday 15:00 kick off.

Tickle my balls.

Only if not already busy on Saturday, if that's ok? :-)
Looks like Utd still struggling to get rid of Sanchez due to his wages even on a loan deal. I'd keep him now as back up and make him get fit. Even as a distraction running about as a sub.
There was a link floating around on man Utd FB feed showing all 50 of Martials goals for Utd. Reminded me how sublime he can be at times, some great finishing. I think he's going to have a great season if he remains fit.

3 points is a must against the Palace.

A hatful of goals, pleasing.

A clean sheet, confidence building.

Rashford to resume penalty duties.

Bring on Sanchez if 3 or 4 up.

Bring him on to see if he can throw the game? He should never play for us again - if he does, it has nothing to do with football and everything to do with the politics of his wages. He’s god awful.

I am the eternal optimist. Sanchez to net a league winning or European Cup winning goal for us sometime soon.

Lay some money on that bet. You'll be retiring with the winnings. :-)

Doesn’t he get £100k per week if he plays? Hopefully it has to be at least 30 mins of the 90 or something (in which case tempting to bring him on at 61 mins every game just to piss him off)

Any truths in the rumors we are looking to sign Llorente?

No idea, but I would be in favour.

Anything less than 3-4 goals against Crystal Palace and a clean sheet will be a disappointment, they are so poor!

2 goals in last 36 appearances - surely youre better than that?

Nope. We don’t have any recognised strikers beyond Rashford and Martial. We are desperate.
