We always had a contingent from London, the feared Cockney Reds, a few hundred from Ireland and gangs from Yorkshire. So yes we had fans from across the so-called UK, but so did Liverpool and City. As a percentage not much in it. But we had/have a bigger actual figureCaoimhin O'Murailehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014116388545562992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-83090090182765877792021-05-14T20:03:59.286+01:002021-05-14T20:03:59.286+01:00The reason United had a bigger support was because...The reason United had a bigger support was because you had supporters from all over the UK. Remember the jokes about United fans being soft southerners?

What you must remember is United have always had a bigger support than either City or Liverpool. Even after the Second World War when Old Trafford was bombed and United played, courtecy of City, at Maine Road our crowds were larger than City'sCaoimhin O'Murailehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014116388545562992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-57790273887133839062021-05-14T13:02:42.480+01:002021-05-14T13:02:42.480+01:00Caoimhin

The Reds only won twice at O T during the eighties, last night was the first victory away ๐ Utd since 2014. Salah, 124 Lfc goals in 200 games, 9 strikes short of chart topper Sir Roger Hunt. We want fourth spot.

Two cars park across the road, blocking access, no other fans to speak of about, then the police turn up out of nowhere, probably part of the script, and move the vehicles, politely along! Manchester constabulary are not renowned for their manners. <br /><br /Caoimhin O'Murailehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014116388545562992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4807238897188927967.post-75888204719696982462021-05-14T11:13:25.308+01:002021-05-14T11:13:25.308+01:00AM

It is officially called VAR but in reality it is artificial refeeing. It is just not for me Anthony, not the game I was brought up on. VAR was the icing on the cake.

Why should the Glazers bother, they're sat back on their billions tossing it off in Florida. They have written to MUST (Man Utd Supporters Trust) apologising and asking how they can "work with the fans". Fans which they officially call customers!
