Could someone please explain how Man Ure winning tonight is good for english football.....

More exposure and more sycophantic media means more kids, the football fans of the future, being 'converted' to the cult religion that is 'United'. Potential fans of Bury, Rochdale, Wigan, Bolton and of course, Norwich amongst others, all have their heads turned and grow up as yet more plastic fans.
A self perpetuating snowball effect which does nothing for English football but just benefits Man Utd PLC.
I despise everything they stand for and hope Barcelona stuff them tonight.
Rant over.

    - girls aloud? (n/m) (Other Football) - Cheltenham_Canary, May 27, 11:40:39
    - Not strictly true! Anyone can build one great team, not many have built three. (Other Football) - DiscoDaleGordon, May 27, 11:34:54
    - Earned respect though, innit. Cant knock him for getting to that stage (Other Football) - Yellalee, May 27, 11:33:32
      - The minute anyone asks him a question he doesn't like, he becomes rude, obnoxious (Other Football) - pants, May 27, 11:41:23
