We should melt them down and use the metal to make a new stadium.

Would be nice if we could bulldoze the south stand. With the journos and execs still in it.

They don't remember 1977-1989 when we just had an attendance of 1

For the players who are really desperate to leave?

I did the San Siro tour a few years ago. They spruced the gaff up (not for my visit) but deliberately left the changing rooms as is, their belief being that there was so much history in it that it shouldn't be altered.

It was like the inside of a Victorian lunatic asylum, but AF

My point: I don't know, probably something about who cares?

If I was to change anything, I'd put cushions around the pitch. I always wince when somebody runs off the pitch and tumbles down the slope onto the brick wall they conveniently placed to stop £90 millions worth of tumbling footballer

Stood looking out of the window pissing himself at the #@&%!s rushing to McDonalds to submit their match reports

I for one am devastated we don't have something similar to 'The Tunnel Club'.

Paying thousands to watch my favourite players amble past with an air of nonchalance would truly excite.


They really are an absolutely delicious hambles, even with billions in the bank .

It's not even their ground ffs.

Compared to the ground in the 80s, the current Old Trafford is a palace.

Wooden seats at the back of the Stretford End, piss-soaked terraces because of the queue for the toilets, seats in F-stand sun-bleached through the gap between the Stretty and the cantilever.

Miles ahead and that's without a climbing wall or a tunnel where players can ignore you.

You’re £#%&!ed if someone starts a Gyms & Libraries thread then.

You stopped going for 8 years.

Hardly the top red are you?

So it seems even Jim White has been bought by the bloo petro-dirhams. 2C etc etc
