If it was one of those foreign-owned mega-rich clubs we were playing I might understand you viewpoint. But Man Utd are the poor relations of Lancashire football, having stayed true to their aptly-named Small Heath origins. Even now, I gather, they are owned by some local firm of glaziers.

Their playmaker was out and if we had rested ours it would have been a fair contest. As it was we blatantly cheated by including Hoolahan, and won easily. It was, as I predicted under those circumstances, a quite one-sided encounter. I really don''t see how any true fan can be happy wth that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
