Or to people not going to pubs on a saturday night

Good point actually.

Do people still watch MOTD? In my youth it was must see tv and even if you went out on a Saturday night you would be craning your neck to watch it in the pub even with the sound down. Now with the abundance of coverage Football First, Goals on Sunday , SSN plus instant goal highlights and live match coverage on the internet I find I rarely watch MOTD (unless United have had a particularly pleasing result :)).

Oh for the innocent days of Jimmy Hill, Motty and Barry Davies..

United Pulling out of the Fa Cup in 2000 didn't help it & it's getting more & more like the league cup where the big clubs playing weakened teams....

I always watch MOTD it's kinda like a tradition same with the Sunday game

You could've ended that sentance with ".... like Leeds, but still losing."

IMO Leeds are a bigger club than Chelsea Norf, & it's not the first time united have lost to lower divsion team by playing a weakened team

here's a good example to my point http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/fa_cup/8468706.stm they treat both cups the same these days, strange for a team without a cup for 5 years

Ha. Fair enough then. I thought it was going to be something factual.

Chelsea were founded 14 years before Leeds so you could argue they have more "tradition" than Leeds, whatever that means.

Re the Glazers etc. Having just sold Ben Foster for 6M, United then announced that young reserve keeper, Ben Amos, will be promoted to number 3 at Old Trafford next season.
In other words, no money will be spent acquiring a goalkeeper with at least some experience to call on.

Not too bothered with no goalie coming in. We didn't really need both Foster and Kuszczak. Amos sounds like a decent prospect anyway, England U21 international and all.

Totally agree with you. However when you do express an opinion that one thing is 'bigger' than another, the least I'd expect is something tangible to back it up with. Not some watery auld drivel. Especially you stat man.

No subject change please.

I am still awaiting something intelligent and relevant from you to why you assume Leeds to be a bigger club than Chelsea.

For the record, I am not really into all this bullshitty we're bigger than you shite. Chelsea are the biggest club in the world to me, as I am sure United are to you, as I am sure Brentford are to fans of their club. Anyhow... over to you.

For the record again here you go.
