Horrible fans on train home singing songs about 96 people who died going to a football match. Just so socially unacceptable at all levels
Hanging Dalglish from a tree was what I had the pleasure of after Wembley

Oh not this argument again :lol:

Okay yes, I agree, but please not another ten pages about Twitter
Ten pages on twitter is better than ten (bob) Hag.

I'm especially pleased today, as I'm one of those 'bad' fans. who always leave a couple of minutes early to run to get a train for the long journey home.

Held off today, sensed a winner was coming.....cue header, celebrations up on my seat, etc, etc! Happy Days!! :) :rave: :)
I left on 85 minutes. I enjoyed the roar as I made my way to overflow car park Z :cheery:

3 points. Amazing feeling at the end, but…..

Defensively we looked very vulnerable today, we can’t give better teams than United that space and those opportunities and not expect to be punished. That high defensive line didn’t work and the players (more so Dunk) were quite obviously frustrated with the system and lack of cover at times.

To be honest, we were largely a bit shit. Van Hecke saved us a fair bit. As did Zirkzee (what a plum). The team don't really know how to play together yet. I think it's going to take a fair while until we're any good, so I'm just grateful we've somehow got 6 points already.

I don't hate the club, but their fans are incredibly hateable, when they post shit like that.
Utd are a horrible club with a penchant for signing horrible c#nt players and are followed by horrible c#nt fans …. Other than that there’s nothing wrong with them.

BIG rumours on Twatter that Ten Hag could be about to be sacked. Apparently today was an ultimatum result. They certainly didn’t play like it.

That has to be BS. If they were in a rush to replace him, they'd have done so at the end of last season. They won their first game this season, you don't then sack the manager for one loss in a tight game.

Just dropped in to see the Man U fan reaction and wasn't expecting this thread. My Schadenfreude level just trebled after reading this.

Hilarious! Not known for their commercial activity, are they?

Maybe Man U's next groundbreaking commercial deal should be an official Salty Tears Partner?

The amazing thing about our start to this season is that I feel we are still a decent way from showing our best.

I think we're a lot further than that. The counter attack and finishing against Everton was good, but they are a bit shit.

I know United tend to do reasonably in the league (with a heady 8th last season), but I thought both sides were full of mistakes today, and lacking much fluidity. I hope we improve quickly.

Like you say though, exciting times.

I came down the steps from the car park as I squelched over from the Swan pre match.... a more sinister, boozed or coked up bunch of dickhead gangster wannabes you would be hard-pressed to find....

That was a lovely afternoon at the Amex. Rushed out at the final whistle, but already looking forward to being back there again!
It was.
Had to have a pint or four to wind down, mind.
Talking of which, the queues for the bar after the game today were nuts, weren't they? Even by 'after a big win' standards...
