choose man utd

[Lamps]

Choose overbearing arrogance.

Choose an alcoholic as your manager, a memeber of AA as your club captain, and a drunken Irish wastrel as your best ever player. Choose not winning your league but still entering and winning one European Cup in the last 37 years in a league format which means you can loose several games and still win the competition and claim this is superior than winning 4 European Cups in 8 years like Liverpool did .

Choose drawing 99% of your fanbase from the ranks of the suburban English middle classes. Choose Gary Neville whinging about having to play too much football, presumably leaving the fans to pick up the financial shortfall which will come through less games with increased ticket prices elsewhere, the one-eyed tosspot.

Choose having one penalty being given against you at home in a league game in 8 years due to your constant intimidation of referees and choose Keane, Neville and Stam to leg the ref halfway accross the pitch after he had the barefaced cheek to give one for Middlesbrough.

Choose wasting as much time in fake protests at said penalty as possible in a transparent attempt to distract the penalty taker into missing (see Izzet, M ).

Choose righteous indigantions over Chelseas spending, whilst ignoring the small detail that youve paid 30m for Ferdinand and Rooney, 28m for Veron and 20m for Van Nistelrooy.

Choose systematic dirty play and calling it "competitiveness ", choosing, in the knowledge that you couldn't beat Arsenal at football, to kick players out of the game (having chosen Mike Riley, the biggest cheat in football to referee the game). Choose then grinding out a series of 1-0s and 2-0s and label it " pragmatic football ", but be up in arms when Liverpool or Chelsea or Arsenal do the same, and choose to deliver lengthy hypocritical treaties on how those clubs are " betraying their footballing principles ". but not Man United. Heavens no.

Choose being happy to take the PLC dollar through the 90s when it meant you commanded the biggest transfer budget and could bully your way round the transfer market (28m on Veron ? - *snigger*) but then trying to stop Glazers takeover and garner support from other fans by saying how bad it is for football when everything youve done since 1992 has been in Manchester United's self-interest and no-one elses. Choose dancing with the devil then choose shock when it jumps up and bites you in the @rse.

Choose walking round with bill boards saying you're not for sale, when by definition every company listed on the stock market is for sale every day of every year.

Choose constantly accusing scousers of being addicted to grief because that would never happen at Manchester United. Then choose annual memorial services for Munich 58, and choose constant euolgies to "the flowers of Manchester".

Choose your team wearing some little idiot's shirt to collect the cup. Choose this mawkish show of sentiment for not someone who died in Britains worst football tragedy, or being kidknapped and murdered in Iraq, or even through something as awful as a tragic illness but rather because the little no-mark had no regard for the
speed limit, or anyone else's safety.

Choose selling Jaap Stam to Lazio before a doping scandal broke and your manager was incriminated in it.

Choose turning the sports section of the tabloid press into a Man U fanzine.

Choose adopting feigned moral indignation over that fact not that turning up for a drugs test on the grounds that you're moving house is not a legitimate excuse. Choose Gordon Taylor to put forward the most ludicruous justifications for what is, after all, only the worst offence a sprtsman can commit. Choose a persecution complex nonetheless and never shut up about it, and threaten to disrupt the national teams Euro 2004 preparations by going on strike, just cos your mate got caught having a line. Choose then making a tv advert out of it with your player tipping over a sugar bowl (sugar - cocaine - geddit ? ) and writing his name in it whilst watching Euro 2004 at home. Hilarious.

Choose embarrassing yourselves by having the biggest prick in England play for you and have him marry the least talented spice girl and appear on fashion shows wearing a skirt, or choose said bitch saying your star right midfielder wears womens underwear at home on chatshows.


Choose the myth that Uniteds firm are gentleman pugilists who would never attack fans who weren't looking for trouble like they did vs Liverpool at OT in 1998. Then choose the same lads getting ragged all over Salford Quays and running for their lives from LFC 3 months later when they came face to face with a proper firm of lads.

Choose George Best coming out with his usual dreary "I am a recovering addict" spiel every time a Premiership footballer blots his copy-book, and sit and watch the drunken wastrel drivel away on soccer saturday whilst his tv mates have a laugh with " good old Georgey ". Wife beating, neglecting his kids, pissing his life and talent away? - He's a card, isn't he ?

Choose prattling on about what a great youth policy Man United have when a single youth player hasnt made it since the mid-90s.

Choose pretending that 11 years of success somehow erases the shame of not winning the league for 26 years.

Choose Veron, Forlan, any of your keepers post Schmeichel, Kleberson, Djemba Djemba, Neil Webb, Bellion, and all the other turkeys that nobody ever mentions when creaming themselves about how great Ferguson is in the transfer market.

Choose Man United.

[POL]

I didn't know half of that stuff

[Fat Tom]

Choose Arsenal

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Choose overbearing arrogance.

Choose systematic dirty play and calling it "competitiveness ".

Choose having the ugliest man on earth as your centre-back and the second ugliest as your manager.

Choose winning two championships in eleven seasons and acting like you've won eight in eleven.

Choose Patrick Vieira whinging about having to play too much football even though he gets eight games' rest every season due to suspensions.

Choose deliberately disrespecting and belittling the other team by playing keepy-uppy in their half with a few minutes to go.

Choose fancying yourselves as better than Real Madrid, then having Inter run rings around you at home.

Choose getting away with light or delayed punishments at F.A. disciplinary hearings because you've had every possible string pulled by David Dein.

Choose a persecution complex nonetheless and never shut up about it.

Choose watching an opponent miss a last-minute penalty against you, then running after him and jeering him. (then choose repeating this very same act fifteen years later against the same opponents)

Choose stepping forward in a four-man line with your right hands all raised in the air, then screaming abuse at the linesman when he has the audacity to keep his flag down.

Choose to see yourselves as one of the giants of continental football when you've never even reached a European Cup semi-final in your entire history.

Choose having the quietest stadium in the world ("the library") as your home ground, and then having the cheek to slag Man Utd about their fans.

Choose 52 red cards in just over seven years. Choose lying to the media that you didn't see a single one of the incidents that caused all these red cards.

Choose being a bunch of smug, self-regarding thugs who are well on their way to being even more unpopular than Man Utd in less than half the time!

[POL]

Choose substituting your hated rivals team for another team into a chain e-mail that being going around for 9 years and thereby implying that you are in some way innovative, original and humorous

[Fat Tom]

Never claimed i was just sick of this ABU shite thats been dominating with no proper football debate
