By Iain McCartney. It certainly does not seem like twenty five years since Aberdeen lost their coveted manager to Manchester United. Mind you, it doesn’t seem like that I have been married for twenty-six years, but that is another story! If the Aberdonians found the departure of their manager hard to take, then those of [...]

By Jason Freeman (forum member JSNFRMN_MUFC) Introduction: This fixture last season served up an easy 2-0 victory on Boxing Day with Berbatov getting the first and the 2nd could have been his too but it was later credited as an Anton Ferdinand own goal. It was a game in which United dominated and perhaps should [...]

By Thomas McGovern Romanian champions FC GOtelul Galati are the visitors to Old Trafford in tonight’s Champions League showdown. The European minnows enter the contest sitting at the foot of group C, meaning anything shy of what would be a remarkable 3 points, would eradicate their chances of progressing to the latter stages of Europe’s [...]

By Nathan Thomas. After another assured performance at Goodison Park on Saturday the general opinion on David De Gea’s ability seems to be changing. Belief in the young Spaniard never wavered amongst most United fans however fans of opposition clubs as well as some sections of the media were quick to jump on De Gea [...]

By Nathan Thomas. Yesterday was torture, there, I said it. I had the misfortune of being sat in the old scoreboard end on Sunday afternoon and was given a goal fest to feast upon, however much to my eternal horror the goals came from the team in blue. It is a game that will be [...]

By Mark Young (forum member mark_young) Introduction The noisy neighbours are getting louder and nothing would turn the volume up more at the Etihad Stadium than a win at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon. This fixture last season saw a turning point for Wayne Rooney, who had been playing well below par since his well [...]

By St1pe from nufc-forum.com The signing of Obertan came as quite a surprise to most Newcastle fans because it arrived at a time when we were faced with the prospect of losing some of our then bigger stars such as Enrique and Barton. Also unlike most of our dealings towards the end of the summer, [...]

By Barry McEvoy. 1. Something’s Up With Valencia We’ve always known that he has trouble using his left peg, but he usually manages to counter-act that by taking the ball down the line. Not this game. He seemed afraid to take his man on, which is completely unlike him. He was determined to cut inside [...]
