getting away with murder against us at least since gerrards time, it must mean something
it has to, otherwise what are we even doing here *scatters various folders and papers across desk*

anyway-
fuck the pundits and print media who are clutching their pearls at forest, not only are the club 100% right to do what they did but they should play this out with maximum resolve and force the points deduction and whatever else in order to underline the ridiculous hypocricy of their treatment of different clubs in covering up their own feckless disinterest in the administration of the rules
cf how arteta, despite arsenal being a smalldick swot club who you are allowed beat up while the house master looks the other way, gets away with saying whatever he wants about it and behaving however he wants on the sidelines.
the entire establishment are a pack of cunts and im only really annoyed that spurs have only benefited three times in my memory, if this is big six ye can fucking keep it at the price

Bournemouth are good!
Heard them saying after they'd cleared the Everton goal as being not offside they were "just checking there's nothing else untoward", very slowly, yeah I bet they are

Man Utd managing to be 2-1 down to Sheffield Utd with something like 83% possession
think the latter have scored every shot they've had on target?

Yeah, it was a little too deliberate, poor refereeing on the field to turn it into a shocking late VAR spectacle if anything
Glad to scrape through that game, glad the lingering spectre of Utd finishing 4th by winning all their remaining games 7-0 has been banished, I wish everyone a very honourable fight for the remaining champions league place and also please lose 5-0 to Arsenal tomorrow cheers

I'll be surprised if United win another match this season, to be honest

Anyways I can't talk. I woke up and it was 2-0 so I decided to watch the dodgers (very smart decision h.p)

You guys hear about this shohei ohtani bloke? He's like Ronaldo and Messi combined, but Japanese and likeable.
Anyways yeah, put me down for $50 on United not winning another game this season. I like those odds

You must understand that both "Aston Villa failing to finish 4th despite appearing to be a lock for it" and "Manchester United Football Club post-1993" have a certain unshakeable psychological hold over us

Baseball doesn’t seem like a real thing that still happens and has new stars. To look up this name and see that he is the new Babe Ruth feels like he has resurrected something long forgotten that you only see in movies set in the 1950s. Sometimes I think American culture can’t stop trying to be everywhere and feels inescapable; it’s nice to know I’ve avoided one thing that you guys can keep to yourself.
