Dave Sullivan. Seriously..... Before you comment you do some research. Unless he thinks it was travelling Man U fans trying to get to LVG!!! Not that he was claiming it wasn't West Ham fans but to see that behaviour being reported and confirmed by the Police and then he states oh no some will miss their jelly and ice cream now at the end!!!!
Binners - I was just thinking the same! 😉
Why do they keep calling it the Boleyn Ground when really its called Upton Park ?
They seem to have resurrected the name just as they are leaving. We were discussing it earlier and no one had heard the name before.
Apparently there's a champions league spot still going begging. You wouldn't know it!
Harsh that binners there has been at least 5 % less sideways passing from us than usual. At one point I am pretty sure we were actually quite clearly attacking them.
Good to see us keeping our consistentcy in not having a shot on target in the first half! Ever! Under any circumstances!
I've been wondering this too. To me, the ground has always been Upton Park. At some point in the last few years it seemed to start being called the Boleyn Ground. Has it always been called that & I just hadn't noticed?
You boys need to get Roy Keane out of retirement. He'd do better than your current midfielders. Hammers should be 3-0 up.
If Wayne Roomey played any deeper he would be in the goal
😀
At least it solves Woy's problem. Kane and Vardy up front and Wayne as a sweeper...
'Boleyn Bouncing' according to Sky. Must be something to 'secure the legacy' i.e. sell more merchandise.
Paulo Di Canio. What a tit but the guy was gold to watch. Good memories of him trying to get himself substituted and arguing with fat frank for a penalty. Plus he scored the greatest goal ever (That Dennis Bergkamp or Tony Yeboah didn't score of course) all of which happened at Upton Park
To be fair Rockape, I could probably do better than our current midfielders.
I'm hoping this might be the archetypal 'game of two halves'. They must be nackered! They can't keep that pace up for another 45.
In a moment of madness earlier I stuck a fiver on both teams to score and a United win. I'd foolishly thought that with a champions league spot on offer we might actually turn up
I've heard commentators calling it the Boleyn for years but only once every so often,it was always upton park and then it changed and upton park never gets mentioned,very strange.I only remember because I always thought they were calling it the bowling ground:).
You're clearly not a proper Gambler Binners. Proper gamblers only tell you when they've won!
Wouldnt surprise me if LuckyVG sneaked a goal (or two) - actually that would be quite funny after the shite in the 1H!!
Always been Upton Park to me based on what TV/Radio called it. However doing a Internet search for programmes suggests is always been Boleyn Ground, Upton Park, London.
[b]boom![/b] It's that man again! 😀
We are Wimbledon say we are Wimbledon
Oh dear!
I always thought they were calling it the bowling ground:
Phew, not just me then!!!!
Might be enough to keep LVG at Old Trafford 🙂
Great defending of a set piece there!
Standard utd this year... Getting played off the park but might still walk away with something.
Blind could hear the pounding of hooves behind him there! 😀
He's done it again! 😀
OMG....what was the keeper doing. More goals yet I reckon though.
Just what I was thinking,what was the keeper doing there??

I was only joking...'kin 'ell
Louis will be signing "I'm forever bursting bubbles..."
Oh Crickey, this is a giggle now!!!
Arse! Martial hatrick?
bangin goal
BOOM!!!
****ity ****!
Lolz etc.
Poor old LVG....his future slipping through his fingers!
Did Carroll just do a stepover?
Thursday night, Channel 5 it is then!
Part of me hopes both utd and city make it at the expense of arsenal...
Looks like that's out the window. Arsenal are destined for another year of being knocked out by Barcelona after the group stages.
Great fun....well done the 'ammers
If Bournemouth beat ManUre and saints win are they out of The Channel 5 cup too? Could they finish 8th?
Yeah they could finish 8th if Liverpool win their last two games, Saints and West Ham win their last game and Utd lose to Bournemouth. For the football they play, 8th would be about right. Enter Jose!
So I just need the Barcodes to come good on Sunday and I'll be chuckling for weeks! ( assuming we beat the mighty Villa of course)
Players I'd still like to see at United next season:
De Gea
Smalling
Martial
And some of the kids. Who really shouldn't need to be starting every game.
That's it. The rest,,,,? Hopeless! The worst United squad I've ever had the misfortune to watch, by a country mile! Absolutely woeful! The style of football under VG is appalling to watch!
Usual stats tonight Binners - 60% possession, 3 shots.
I think if you're honest binbins, without DeGea the season would have been really bad. Champions League still not gone - wouldn't trust Citeh not to **** up their last game. If LVG had anything going for him, at least he got youngsters playing and is still in with a shout of 4th despite the football they've been playing (which, no disrespect to Leicester, is testament to the standard of the EPL this season). Jose won't have any interest in the youth team. It would be a shame were Utd to stop trying with the youth sides, but when the hunger for success sets in, all kinds of tradition goes out the window.
De Gea has been voted Utds player of the year 3 years in a row. Yes, he's outstanding, but a club apparently wedded to attacking principles shouldn't be so reliant on their goalie.
Agree re youth policy. No way Rashford would have got a game under Jose. The right back Fosu-Mensah looks a good prospect. Lingaard isn't very good though is he and LVG shouldn't have sold Welbeck. He's not top top class but he was decent enough and a local lad to boot.
You're bang on Bravissimo! Without De Gea we'd be mid table.at best! Can't see him hanging around for another season of bailing a piss poor team out!
The one positive has been the youth team players coming through. The big money signings, Martial excepted, have been absolutely woeful! Memphis Depay? A goalscorer? **** off! He's got 2 goals for the season and never even made the bench tonight! For good reason! He couldn't hit a barn door with a shovel! Blind had another shocker tonight! Same as Rojo! And in the middle of it all, playing in God knows what position, you've got Rooney lumbering about.
United squads in the past looked like they could score from anywhere. Martial is now the only player in the squad who will actually have a crack on goal! The rest just pass it endlessly sideways in midfield while the opposition defence get the deck chairs out and sit reading some poetry
