What's the problem with Man United? Has everyone got the British disease of despising winners?

the Scousers WILL NOT be happy,

Well if all they have to define themselves is a football team and a pop group then I guess they've only themselves to blame for taking it too seriously.

BTW I've not a Man United fan nor am I from Manchester I just think we should stop being so negative about winners.

No, generally other football fans just f*cking hate them for their players, their fans and their manager and most of all their utter arrogance.

Maybe you are confusing self belief with arrogance. Self belief is necessary to be a winner. Self belief without ability comes across as arrogance e.g. current candidates in the Apprentice. Judging by their performance this year Man United would seem to have ability. Get used to it winners quite often come across as arrogant because of their self belief e.g. Michael Schumacher

fair play to Liddipul, actually, they pushed manUre almost to the wire. Maybe they'll go one better next season.

meanwhile, for those of us that "don't deserve all this", roll on next year. If we can keep Larry & the run of results we've had since he took over, we'll finally get out of the third division...

MOT

And finally, congratulations to ManU.

What arrogance? I guess it could be predicting winning matches before they take place, for instance. Not something Fergie' done, but rivals did....

Sorry, is this some sort of game we're talking about?
I thought it was something important.

I thought it was something important.

When I see threads referring to MotoGP or Formula One or Cricket or Rugby League or any other sport in which I have no interest let alone the feeling that some might not be "sports" in the pure sense of the word, I just stay away rather than doing the "Oh sorry, thought it was something important..." thing. Because, you know what...they are important to some people and well, it would be boring if we all had the same interests.

I suggest you do the same.
