Ok, I don't usually go snooping about on other fans forums but I was bored and thought I'd see how the rags are judging their excruciatingly embarrassing transfer mis-dealings . . . . I bullshit ye not it's hilarious and I you need a good laugh then I recommend it for the comedy.
These are the words of a full member rag who, having had a good slap from reality, is writing with a modicum of stunned sense.
. . . I suppose that the lesson is that if you want sense from a rag then slap away.
Ahem;
When you act with at times, a breathtaking arrogance, you often get what you deserve in life. Manchester United have got everything they deserve out of this summer transfer window.
No clear transfer strategy
No major targets acquired
Ridiculous media statements resulting in the heightening of expectations and in turn pressure to deliver
Pissing off virtually every club we have contacted with at times appalling arrogance and lack of foresight
Overpaid embarrasingly on someone who should never have been the sole acquisition of note
Made Moyes a target for derision in his first few months
Probably unsettled and upset our best left-back, who incidentally was our best player at Anfield
Significantly reduced our positive reputation in European football, carefully upheld throughout Ferguson and Gill's tenures
Potentially damaged a young Spanish footballers' short-term career with amateurish actions & borderline contempt
Made the institution a target for uncomfortable criticism from the media and indeed our own supporters
Just when all we needed was a quiet few months post-Ferguson. Let's hope there is a positive reaction where it matters most...on the pitch.
Fucking joke....and yes.....embarrassing.
If we had De Gea and the rags had Hart, we'd be top with a 9 point lead and they'd be in 12th place - that's the difference between a 'good' keeper and a 'top class' keeper - 12 places - think about it.
