Stretford End Arising — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 10:58:32 +0000

By Tony Mogan After Manchester United managed the seemingly unthinkable and dropped points at home two games on the bounce, a perplexing end to November culminated in defeat at the hands of a plucky Crystal Palace side, a miserable end to Sir Alex Ferguson’s League Cup ambitions.
