OT: Football Question Beckham and a scarf

Essentially he was showing his support to the united supporters who would like to see the end of the Glazer family ownership of the club. The green and gold where the original club colours I believe, but you are talking almost 100 years back I guess.

It's the old (maybe original?) ManU colours, thrown in by a ManU fan
Think he was just "feeling the love" or something, but the radio today says it's a
big*MASSIVE snub to LA Galaxy/Milan/all that's sacred(edit) - oh, didn't know about the colours being anti-owner
*MASSIVE HUUUUGE SNUB/DEATH-THREAT TO GLAZER

They're the old Newton Heath colours, he wore the scarf to show support for the fans that want to see the end of the Glazers ownership of the club

Cheers guys for the insight in the world of football
Personally I am looking forward to the 6 nation’s rugby on the weekend.

Who's playing rugby at the weekend I watched when England lost to Ireland it was exciting enough, although I do prefer watching Arsenal and United dish out thumpings in Europe. Are there any international rugby7s I like that when I have seen it?

Did like the humour of the united fans last night, Beckham comes on as sub and gets a standing ovation from the entire crowd with chants of 'Only one David Beckham' etc then he gets booed the first time he gets the ball, brilliant

Beckham wore that scarf to remind everyone that it's the players job to suck millions out of the club not the Glazers'.

He's thinking of joining the pride of East Anglia so he can win a trophy this season

That does look like your archetypal Man Utd fan. Is she from Taunton ?

Are you Norwich in disguise?

Saw that last night but surprised ITV did not mention it.
I did wonder if Becks has been approached by the Red Knights for a £20m contribution to buying out the Glazers. Wuld have thought he could afford it.....
