Oh they’re popular, just not for the things you assume, and not in the numbers.

Well, we’re nothing if not predictable

One down in the first 15 minutes

EDIT: 2 down in 30 minutes. Sunday league defending. It’s just embarrassing

Wel it’s consistent. 2 after 30 minutes.

Going out, finishing bottom of the group by the looks of things at the moment.

I suspect Mo Salah might be rather looking forward to playing against this defence on Sunday

I thought the whole point of starting with McFred was that it was a more defensive midfield.

That’s going well, isn’t it?

You’ll beat Liverpool on Sunday and Ole will be the messiah again, for another few games at least, before the cycle repeats.

This is brilliant 🤩.

Actually it’s bad … nice 2-2 draw now would be ideal .. Ole in

Steve Bruce is available? Just saying like.

I don’t think Bruce will consider a job that low … think of his family

We’ll need Big Sam at this rate

This new kids not bad

If we ever bothered to show up for a first half, we’d be awesome

Ole in etc. Great comeback and he’ll come out with all the usual United cliches for sure. Making heavy weather of the easiest champions league group by a country mile but if it keeps him in the job I’m happy.

Norwich are going for lowest point count record…. Jorginho has the cigars out strolling around like a charity game. 3 academy players on the scoresheet for Chelsea.

7? Blimey, that’s a proper shoeing!

Looks like Watford are in for another tough day at the office too

great shout Binners!

My predictions are up to their usual standard then? 😃

The bookies bloody love me for a very good reason

Some bonkers scores today. I’m loving this season so far, despite us looking like Europa League candidates. Tomorrow’s going to be interesting

Police are responding to complaint that the banner was ‘offensive’. Hahahahaha.

That’s an interesting one. Truth hurts.

I wonder if non Newcastle fans will ever let this fade away. Will we see constant banners and hear songs every Newcastle away tie.
Interesting what the short medium and long reactions from all parties, police, premier league, Newcastle fans and owners, will be if feelings continue to be made.

That banner is brilliant!

United v Liverpool could be a goal fest today! Liverpool look good going forward again but are letting in a few. So 0-0 then?!

Yip. Got my scouse brethren round for the match later. We’ve both agreed that with Salah presently pretty much unplayable, two shaky looking defences, and with our second half goal flurry the other night, plus all the usual hype, this ones got nil nil written all over it!

This mornings Observer has the most on-the-money article about United I’ve ever read, which details pretty accurately where we are as a club under this ownership and why their priorities mean that actually winning stuff isn’t even really a priority

Solskjær the perfect frontman for United’s era of endless new dawns – Liverpool clash is being billed as make-or-break but that is typical of club where everything happens but nothing changes

What is important to note is that none of this is remotely contingent on United winning things here and now. The silverware has already been won; the myths forged; the brand established. If you can monetise the treble-winning side in China 22 years later, then you can probably keep doing it for another 22. All the machine really requires to keep it running is Champions League football every year, a steady supply of heroics and the idea that on some level United are still engaged in the “pursuit of excellence”.

As a United fan it’s a thoroughly depressing read as it just confirms what we’ve all known for years. The owners don’t give a toss about what goes on on the pitch really, they exist to simply rinse as much cash out of ‘the brand’ (whatever that is?) as possible

It’s not so much a football club any more. It’s a theme park

Spursy

oh dear 2 down in 13 mins

The old ‘go two goals down’ strategy again eh!

Defensive rankings for United this season:

Clean sheets – 18th

Tackles per game – 20th

Errors leading to shots – 20th

That is awful.

🔥 – Liverpool have scored two goals in the opening 13 minutes of their Premier League game against Manchester United today, just as many as the Reds scored in the first 13 minutes of all their previous 58 Premier League games against United combined. #MUNLIV

It’s our comfort zone

oh dear oh dear this is abysmal

Jeezo. Ole out yet binners?

Great to see Keita looking a lot sharper this season. I wasn’t sure he was good enough tbh.

Oh FFS liverpool, you’re going to get Ole sacked at this rate, at least let them have some hope.

dear oh dear this is abysmal

No it’s great watching Man Utd’s myth being destroyed in full view of a worldwide audience.

The initial tackle was worthy of a red in itself. Ronaldo is very lucky there.

too **** easy

Steve Bruce is available!

The first tackle was a yellow no where near a red, but how he doesn’t go off for kicking out like that I have no clue.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wild tackle from behind, nowhere near the ball, take a player out and knock him to the ground? I dunno
