What is the best number?
I met a genius on the train
today
about 6 years old,
he sat beside me
and as the train
ran down along the coast
we came to the ocean
and then he looked at me
and said,
it's not pretty.



it was the first time I'd
realized
that.

Unless Chelsea and City poo poo the bed and hand it to Pool on a silver platter I would be worried about that game the most. I think they would literally have a nervous breakdown from the pressure and be at risk for setting an OG record.

I suppose that even if we don't win the league, we'll have a repeat of the away game at St James's Park on the last day of the season. Which should be fun. 6-0, even Borini scored.

I was there, and the 3-0 to Sunderland too. Was far better watching my team concede 6 goals in person

He's also the crux of a spoken word riddle involving Beckham getting sent off Butt scoring the winning goal which is a good one for the pub.

Moyes isn't underperforming though, he's performing exactly, almost to the number, how he performed at Everton. He's the same manager. Why was he picked for the United job when he never won a single trophy with Everton and his highest finish was 4th, once? United got exactly the manager they signed. WHY was he picked in the first place is the question, everything that has followed his appointment is no surprise at all, based on a decade's worth of proof.

I think you're being a little obtuse. On paper Man u team was better than Everton. Van Persie was coming off a great season. plus £50m in transfers. All things being equal, there's no reason to think Moyes couldn't grow into the role. The irony is that the manager who could do this was Martinez

Moyes's pay-off will be 12 months money under terms of six year deal he signed last July - equates to around £4.5m

So the club's marketing head will melt down and resign and we find out some private benefactor has been holding the club aloft with massive donations out-of-pocket?
