Go on and tell us again how anyone who has ever wore white boots is now a county footballer...
I could do with a good laugh.

[The arrogance of some on this thread is quite astounding.]

The point is if a cyclist is an idiot (of which clearly there are some) they are moving at relatively low speed on a machine weighing under 10kgs. If a motorist is an idiot he is likely in a machine weighing enough to maim, crush, kill someone should they hit a cyclist. The arrogance of some on this thread is quite astounding.

I agree. Cyclists are very arrogant.
Especially the lycra clad knobs.

Including cyclists on phones even though crazy Eamonn says it doesn't happen.

Lycra isn't all bad.

Have you anger issues Eamonn?

I have a low tolerance threshold for stupidity.

I think you're a little unhinged myself.

[Those lads are all winning medals with clubs and counties and it doesn't matter a shite what they wore or how they did it.]

Regardless of the debate - anyone who wants to classify the cyclists on the basis of what they're wearing is showing themselves up to be the traditional bog hopping, begrudging curmudgeon fool that's been berating anyone who stepped outside of the norm for years. Probably complained back in the day about the lads that wore white boots, the lads that had a fancy haircut, the lads who were too tan, the lads who had tattoos or ear rings, the lads who own a nice car or the first guy to wear under armour on a cold league day. Those lads are all winning medals with clubs and counties and it doesn't matter a shite what they wore or how they did it.

All of them? What kind of nonsense are you talking.

It's the way United fans say it like it's a badge of honour is what makes it so funny.
Shows how far the club have fallen really..
Son.
United used to win major titles. Now they are happy having the most twitter followers or spending "their" own money on over priced Chelsea rejects.

Jesus lad, get over the obsession... What club doesnt spend stupid money?

Exactly. It's the nonesene that it  make a difference where the money comes from that makes me laugh.

Lol. It's funny how no cyclist has ever done it when you ask them yet 99% of the ones I see do it when I'm out driving.

Jesus! A lot of anger on this thread.... get a bit of perspective, nearly 70 people died on the roads last year, bad driving, drunk driving, texting or on phone.... drivers would need to get their act together

exactly - start with the morons on phones before worrying about cyclists i'd suggest.

Plenty of cyclists use their phone to text and whatever whilst cycling.

Well they shouldnt. Doesnt make it right for a motorist to make or take a call. A car is essentially a lethal weapon.

Have you ever broken a red light when out for a cycle?

Next seasons side must be one of the tallest in the clubs history. Set pieces shouldn't be an issue anyway.

Most expensive too . . . United no longer able to look down their nose at other clubs spending!!!

United spending their own money though.  Still, City have spent a lot more than the rest this summer again.

Oh look they still think they can look down their noses at everyone else because it's "our own money"

What utter nonsense!!

It's complete nonsense.
What amuses me with anyone who makes that stupid argument they seem to forget that City have won the Premier League twice and have been in champions league regularly  and also have the same share of the TV money so they would have actually generated a lot of their own cash these past 10 years or so.
It's  a ridiculous argument.

City have spent well over £1 billion the past ten years.  That doesn't correlate with the above.  United have had to start spending to keep up with the rest, but at least its money they have genertaed over the years from expanding the club off the pitch due to on-field success.

Another fool.
