6-2, 6-2, 6-2, 6-2, 6-2!!!!!!
UNI-TED, UNI-TED, UNI-TED!!!
Oh what a fine day to be TYNESIDE!!!
haha! you ******s! really, this is what you deserve! You Toon Army fools think you are big time, and you get capped big time! Same old Shearer, Always Boring!!! You know, perhaps now you Geordie freaks will shut up and leave the elite to the elite. Plus, you have enough to worry about with Chelsea Foreign Mercs and Everton & Co. nipping at your heels.
This game on Wednesday is gonna be huge! The RED DEVILS shall persevere though. aRSENAL ARE A GREAT SIDE, BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU WISH FOR IT, NO MATTER HOW MANY WINS AND WONDER GOALS YOUR TEAM PRODUCES, YOU JUST....DON'T .......HAVE CAPTAIN FANTASITC, DAVID BECKHAM HIMSELF...AND YOU NEVER WILLL!

You're winning nothing this year mate.
We are the true UNITED, the east and west end of Newcastle merged to form Newcastle United. Manchester United was never united, it's just a meaningless name which they shamelessly took. Before 1903 they were known as Newton Heath but they decided that sounded crap so they hijacked the term 'United' which Newcastle had already been using, rightfully, for over 20 years.
No matter how far Man Utd and their riches go the true United will always be in the geordie nation. For you it will always just be a meaningless name which you cling onto. No wonder the chants of "United" are so pathetic in Old Trafford, you know it doesn't mean anything.
UNITED! |

Actually mate, I have always enjoyed reading your posts, because I can tell that you are an educated football fanatic. I give you full respect there, and trust, I know all about Newton Heath and the change to 'United'. Though it doesn't matter in one sense, I certainly understand your admonishment of M.U. on the other.
That issue aside though, the riched of Manchester United have been well earned, and may I once again point out that the core of that team is British and has been brought up through the system. Rivalries aside, when you take Arsenal and Manchester United, you can't honestly tell me you respect the Arse more. Can we at least agree that they have purchased their entire team? Manchester has to get some respect for bringing Wes Brown, John O'Shea, Gary Neveille, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, and David Beckham all the way up from schoolboys. Give credit where credit is due. Anyway, the championship will be an interesting one to be sure. I know that football is increasingly a game of high finance, but living over here mate, I have learned all about that.
Baseball is a e sport, yes. But you have the New York Yankees estimated at approvx. 825 million U.S. dollars competing with teams like the Montreal Expos who were are owned by the other major league teams by way of financial collapse. They can't compete, plain and simple. But everyone loves the Yankees right? The disparity gets waayyyyy worse over here. Let me put it this way. A-Rod from Texas Rangers signed a monstrous deal....I believe he earns more than the payroll budget of severl Major League teams. Economic Parity in sports is not to be.....but I believe that Machester United could be like Real Madrid and buy all the players.....Raul is their only notable local product.....at least Manchester have some principles and integrity when it comes to the matter. People will always be haters to those who support a huge team. That is the reason so many on this continent hated Jordan and the Bulls. There will always be bandwagon jumpers. I have liked United for years, though at the age of 24 you do the math) I really could not have been a fan during the woeful 80's of 'Scousedom. Let's just say that I know the history of the club, and I followed them (though to be fair, cable only started carrying football at any rate of mention after Cantona left). All I can say is that I like them in and around 1993, but that an element of my family hails from Salford.....and I have stuck with them even when they have had off years. At the end of the day, as a fan, you have only to answer to yourself. If you start following a sport, pick a team and stick with them faithfully, I see no reason to hate on others. I DO realize though, that people follow the best teams so that they can be on the side of the winner. This is a pitty, and that hallmark of the casual sports enthusiast. Along with the evolution of modern sport to become high corporate games, we must acknowledge that added element of the casual (AND FICKLE) team followers.
Your thoughts?
Cheers mate,
