No more than the malingering tosser deserves, tbh.

I'd forgot all about Ashley Young. Is he injured?

Ironically that actually made me laugh

pour it over lvg n set the @#%&! alight.

if that even works.

I've never seen tony so angry

Slickening thread

A lubricant partner, with City and Liverpool coming up....

Heh! Eddie and his wild sense of humour

Rooney is NOTHING without Valencia.

I get Rooney was holding a sack of spuds until Tony V bailed him out as per.

Anyway, this makes the threat of getting knocked out on Thursday a bit easier to deal with. Delighted we have managed to get this over the finishing line - good man Woody

Are they gonna have one of those cannisters in front of the team for next seasons official pic?

Pretty sure that's Valencia's happy face.

'I said smile, Tony'
'I am'

Does anyone actually not refuse to do this shit? If you're a decent player then surely you can get away with refusing this shit? Surely some of them aren't arsed about a bit more money?

• Groundbreaking partnership in oil and fuel sector for Gulf and Manchester United*
• Club’s first global lubricant and fuel retail partner*



(NYSE:MANU) Gulf Oil International has today been unveiled as Manchester United’s first official global lubricant oil and fuel retail partner.

To celebrate the three-year global partnership, the first of its kind for a Premier League club, Gulf Oil International’s vice president Frank Rutten and United commercial director Jamie Reigle were today joined by first-team players at the club’s Aon Training Complex.

With its heritage rooted in the first discovery of Texan oil in 1901, the now-global lubricants and fuel retailer’s distinctive orange disc will feature on the club’s digital perimeter boards during Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup matches at Old Trafford.

The agreement will enable Gulf Oil International, a Hinduja Group company, to engage with United’s worldwide family of fans, including its 325 million followers in Asia, which Gulf sees as a major area of focus, having a strong presence in India and rapidly developing-businesses in China, the Middle East and Indonesia.

With a Gulf lubricants presence in more than 110 countries worldwide, petrol stations in 22 countries and a thriving global marine business, this new partnership reflects Gulf’s commitment to continually add value to its customers.

Manchester United group managing director Richard Arnold commented: "While both Manchester United and Gulf have evolved and adapted since their foundation more than 100 years ago, neither has forgotten its roots. Gulf always seeks to demonstrate its core values of quality, endurance and passion, which are principles that are also held by the club.

"Gulf Oil International already has significant experience in sport and we are looking forward to working with them to expand that into football. Through this partnership we will further our commitment to reach our fans around the world, especially in Asia."

Gulf Oil International’s vice president Frank Rutten said: "Gulf is regarded as an iconic brand in motorsport circles, but this is a truly exciting opportunity for Gulf to expand beyond our motorsport sponsorships and to stand on the global stage - showing the ambition and growth aspirations of the brand.

"This partnership with Manchester United, surely the world’s greatest football name, brings together two brands with incredible heritage, a pride in performance excellence and the ability to listen to the wishes of their customers – the fans in the case of Manchester United - and turn this into action. We are extremely excited about the prospect of moving forward together."

Can't wait to see the fruits of Gulf Oil's engagement with the fans. It's gonna be awesome.

Leicester City fans must be absolutely gutted at this development
