So ManU win another Cup.

Does anyone else find this just mind boggling boring. To think that the richest football club in the world playing in the most un-even competition in the world have just won another cup. This is not a dig a soccer just that I turned on the TV and here were all these manchester fans (all born in manchester - not) going off their brains with excitement and adoration for something was virtually assured at the start of every premier league season. Fair dinkum I don't know why the even bother with the season. Just have a 4 week round robin with the 4 richest clubs. As for ManU supporters, talk about downhill skiers, they probably support Ferrari and the Filth too. The culture of the (rich) winners.

There, that made me feel better

    As a Gunners supporter, i totally agree....YAWN 2010-2011.

    I can appreciate skilled players from ManU or any team for that matter for what they are and what they do.

    But the fact they play for ManU or that ManU win some more silverware does nothing for me.

    If I watch Premier league it is to watch the elite players or to see an underdog team put up a good performance

    Like watching a rich person with a Maserati outrace a poor person driving a Proton. Thats not competition.

    You make some interesting viewpoints. And yet I follow Manchester United. Maybe because I saw them as a kid more times than any other. I had a soft spot for Leeds Utd when Kewell & Viduka played for them. But for some reason I was just drawn to Manchester United. I've always had an interest in Sir Alex Ferguson for a long long time. I think that more than anything has strengthened my "support" for Man Utd.

    All that said, I find myself in a sense of deja vu time and again in the club winning title after title. :P

    I just wish it would some how rub off or translate into success for the MFC. :rolleyes:

    After being converted very early to the cause by my United mad grandfather I can actually still remember us being relegated. I think I was 7 or 8 at the time. I think those growing up in the Premier league era don't realise our struggles post Busby Babes and pre SAF. Bring on those trophies I say, because who knows when the wheel will turn again?

    Crystal palace wear red and blue, they have just been promoted to the EPL.

    Aldershot wear red and blue, they just relegated from League Two (essentially League Four)...

    Crystal palace wear red and blue, they have just been promoted to the EPL.

    Oh...

    I think that with United it is easy to forget just how saddled with debt the club is. A few bad seasons and we are in real trouble... So I will never take our trophies for granted.

    Bolton wear red and blue...but mainly white :P

    Hmmmm.... :)

    a friend once told me soccer would be more interesting if they didn't have keepers

    the scores and boredom factor would be quite different and the game may then be worth following

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
