If it wasn't for SAF Man Utd would probably 'only' have been as successful as, say, Spurs in the PL era.

Atleast nobody here has latched on to the "Glory Hunter" thing, I get it all the time, it really gets on my nerves that people don't seam to believe it is possible to be a legitimate supporter of United unless you like within 5 metres of Old Trafford and even then loads of people would say you should support City.
People understand that those with Irish family have historical and domestic links that make United their team, but the same doesn't usually apply to supporters living in Surrey!

Those with Irish family have links? How about those with Mancunian family links?
If you're not from Manchester and support the red scum you're a glory hunter - no debate!
I wonder how long it will be before we see kids in Guidlford or Bromley wearing Man City shirts.....

It happens all over the world. I went to Northern Italy with my family in 1989, back when Maradona's Napoli were in their pomp, and I remember seeing a kid in a back street in Venice, dressed in a full Napoli tracksuit, kicking a ball against a wall. Napoli are obviously from the South of the country. Of course he might've just been visiting from Naples, but probably not.
Get your money on my beloved Bolton to get relegated
our squad is so small we have don't have enough decent players to fill the subs bench and of the players we have got about 6 of them have got broken legs or other long tern injury problems
were f**ked before a balls kicked
Everton's squad is small as well. I think Man United have got almost twice as many midfielders as us.
We have one right back
we have two left backs but one is on a manslaughter charge so will soon be doing porridge
we have two strikers
it's a joke!
1. Chelsea
2. Manchester City
3. Liverpool
4. Tottenham Hotsperm
5. Areshole
6. Everton
7 - 20 any of the rest
21. Sunderland
22. Manchester United - by default by cheating and taking the piss
WTF?????

Is Stockdale there too?

He is a talented young footballer. Your hatred of Manchester United is not very healthy.
