Correct. Arguably bang average for some people though.

Ure - still one of our very worst signings ever

I vaguely remember a claim that Sartori became something of a cult figure?

I dunno. I'd want to see some kind of evidence of cult status, like his name referenced in forum usernames for example.

Ure was decent earlier in his career but we bought him fo the price of a new “casey” when he was about 49. Always hated the @#%&! anyway for kicking Denis all afternoon when he played for the bummers and as per, guess who got sent off for retaliation? @#%&!o went as well.

Who claimed that, his mam? Scooped a passable cornet and swept the barber shop floor.

Soz Carlo. Did better than me tbf.

I've just googled United managers first signings for the club, I wonder if it says anything about them? See what you think

Jose Mourinho - Eric Bailly

Louis van Gaal - Ander Herrera

David Moyes - Guillermo Varela

Sir Alex Ferguson - Brian McClair

Ron Atkinson - John Gidman

Dave Sexton - Gary Bailey

Tommy Docherty - George Graham

Frank O'Farrell - Martin Buchan

Wilf McGuinness - Ian Ure

Always thought froggies first signing was viv Anderson

Moyes doesn't get Varela either, he was signed on the back of a trial in April.

His is Fellaini. Wish he could have kept the @#%&! tbh.
