isnt it interesting how the armchairs start posting again when man utd string three wins together. this forum was empty of 'i am an armchair listen to me' posts a couple of weeks ago get some consistency you lot.

We're not all armchair supporters Kippax! For most 3pm Saturday home games, I leave at 7am ( to have time for a few bevvies before the game ) and get home at 10pm. That's far from being an armchair fan!

I think you are starting to get a bit bitter mate, now we are on a run and looking good again after beating 'pool and the @rse with half our first choice team! Roll on 9th Feb when we can give you lot a good caning in revenge for our pathetic display at Moane Road.

Some armchair - I've been paying MUFC rent on it sat in the Stretford End for 30 years this year.

I'll be back up as well. Leaving at 6:00am and back at 7:00pm. It would be a lot less hassle watching it on the box.....from the comfort of my own armchair!

It cant be any worse than it is down here, cold damp and foggy, hence im taking the train, I just cant be bothered to drive up.

Don't jump on a Virgin train then Funkii! Every time I've taken one of those for a midday KO, I've had to get the first of the day and it has got me to Picadilly just after KO!

A mad dash in a cab to the lights on Chester Road follows, before a quick dart on foot down Sir Matt Busby Way! Last time was against Chelsea, I took up my seat just in time to see Scholesy bang one in to make it 1-1. Not that bothered that I missed JFH's opener, although when I saw it on TV a bit later it was quite a beauty!

Virgin trains reputation is very well earnt, that's for sure!

I prefer to drive or go by coach with a supporters club these days.

Funkii Munkii

Cheers for that Swin

Im on the 06.55 getting in at 10.26, 1.5 hours breathing space just in case, its the first time ive been up on the train in years, I just didnt fancy driving, had a strange feeling about it, paranoid or what

SwinYE5

That should give you plenty of leeway.....even for a Virgin train!

Now let's go out and do those Eastend boys for having the cheek to grab a draw against us at Upton Park!

P1Fanatic

2-0 after 17 mins and 3-0 final score. Very impressive going forward. Pity Ruud had a bad day in front of goal otherwise we would have made a serious indent into Arsenals 4 goal difference advantage. Ah well joint top on points after Chelsea could only draw with Boro.

Big up to the ABU massive who'd written us off not so long ago

Kippax

wern't ITV clever to show a mundane 3-0 at old trafford as a feature game when city's spectacular comeback got pushed to the highlights at the end. well done ITV. you really know how to please the armchairs

P1Fanatic

Surely you went to the man city match (not being an armchair supporter) and therefore wouldnt need to see the highlights??

Azide

Touche!

Kippax

P1, no i didnt. do you go to every away game?

austen_wrx

Leaving at 6am for a home game??? Are you local?
