They are back to the United of normal, when they don't have a genius manager like Busby and Fergie, now they are back to the United who go decades without winning titles like pre and post Busby and post Fergie.

The self proclaimed biggest club in the World with only 3 European cups has only had 3 managers in over 130 years that has won a league title.

Nothing wrong with them, they have gone back to the norm that they only become relevant when they have a once in a lifetime great manager.

Yep Fergie is casting a long shadow over the club just like Busby did.

Great to see though, the demise of them back to mere mortals as a football club. the fanbase who latched on to them during the Fergie days are at wit's end as all they have known is success.

5 years without a trophy.

10 years without a title.

14 years without a European Cup.

The real United are back.

Oh damn just realised i replied to the wrong person and i'm to lazy to copy paste it and delete this post and rectify the mistake Mate.

It’s amazing they have the brass neck to brag about European Cups after getting a whole nation banned from entering European football.

Then again, it isn’ that amazing I suppose. I remember McMahon saying “imagine how many we’d have won if it wasn’t for the European ban”

From what you say there mate, I`d say he`s being a bit " selective " with the truth.

Regardless of whether the CPS are under pressure to bring more cases to trial, there`s no way they`d get it to court, it if the only evidence, was that of one single person alleging a sexual offence took place, without any other evidence.

The defence would quite rightly ask it to be thrown out, at what is called a " pre trial hearing ".

Without any other form of evidence, the only way that it would get to court, is if other women, were alleging the same things took place and the fact that non of the women knew each other - " similar fact evidence" and that could meet the requirements to get it to court.

A lot of historical child abuse cases - grooming gangs / kids homes etc have relied on " similar fact " evidence.

They actually went on the same run as us in the early 90’s. Won the FA cup, Cup winners cup then the league but then went on to that amazing run.

The Pantheon of the great British managers has to be Stein, Paisley, Ferguson, Shankly, Clough and Busby.

Be fitting to see a Mount Rushmore with them on it, call it Mount Benchmark.

And yet...count them if you don't believe me...in the 10 years of the 60s Catterick won more 1st Division points than any of them - Shankly, Revie, Busby, Clough, Nicholson.

But sadly your claim is only a 6.5 out of 10 on the GOT wumming scale - must try harder !
