If my original post had said Quote:
The same would still be true if Edwards was in charge of course. The only time Manchester United ever belonged to the fans in any real sense was when a (too) small number of the shares in the PLC were owned by fans. I wasn't trying to get into an emotive discussion about the soul of the club and who is responsible for it's success etc. The cold hard facts are, Glazer (or a consortium of faceless banks) owns Manchester United, not you or I. |

What i cant understand is why some United fans want to go out of their way to try and paint FC United as having nothing to do with MUFC.
Obviously they do; they were formed by United fans. Many of the United fans that go to games have never been to an FC match and dont really care much about them but at the same time they do recognize that they are a team created by United fans and that there is a connection with MUFC, they take a sort of 'fair play to em' type of view. A small minority though cant help themselves but to go out of their way to discredit FC and try to detatch them from MUFC. I dont know why they do this but if i was to hazzard a guess the following reasons would come to mind; - Insecurity, fear that one day FC United might be in the same league as MUFC and that there could be two United's in Manchester - Guilt, the mere existence of FC reminds them of how they did £#%&! all when the glazers came in - Jealousy, they dont live in Manchester and so cant get to the games or watch them on TV so they dont like them - Closed mind, only have an ability to think inside the box 'there's only one united', 'its always been that way' etc There may be other reasons that i'm not sure of - maybe Shenwen or some other anti FC forum member could explain it better to me? |
