For some reason, you appear to be arguing that united winning the league caused a fall in support.
I’m arguing we did not have a dormant fan base in 1993, which is what you originally stated, no?

Work to increase the capacity was started in 1995 btw, and the timing of it was more to do with Euro 96. The proposed expansion was part of the initial bid, which was tabled in 1991. Nothing to do with us winning the league.

Pretty sure there was no Stretty 92-93, or much of it, tbf.

Vividly remember us getting tonked 3-0 by Everton early doors with Robert Warzycha bagging to an eerie silence and a weird breeze from the open end

state of united fans online (twitter) posting pictures of who has the bigger turn out just about sums the state of united.

From winning leagues to fighting about parade sizes. The utter £#%&!ing state of us at the moment is that bad that no one really realizes what we have turned into.

£#%&!ing parade sizes

We're arguing parade sizes, celebrating golden gloves, filming Deadpool adverts, our pets heads are falling off.

"oh is the camera angle"

"it was raining"

"no fans are allowed over the bridge"

"your parade was shorter so the fans are packed in to make it look bigger"

I've found it all a bit cringe as well, such tittle tattle should be beneath us really.

But £#%&! me it winds them up.
