Thread Name: BS: Manchester United !?
Subject: RE: BS: Manchester United !?
Bests: The genius of Eric Cantona, Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs, Old Trafford Stadium, long history in the Football League, winning anything and everything often more than once.
Worsts: Miserable manager who intimidates referees and linesmen, self-aggrandising fans, massive financial backing, turning football into a faceless corporate machine, Gary Neville.
P.S. They're not as good as Aston Villa, who were formed in 1874 and founded the Football League in 1888, and won the FA cup in 1887. Manchester United by comparison, only rose from the Ashes of Newton Heath FC in 1902, making them young whippersappers by comparison.
