Not the best footballer at United, IMHO. You mean “most over-rated footballer in the world”, don’t you? Not the best footballer at United, IMHO.

Funny; every fan wants to be in the Premiership, but I'm sure I'm not the only City fan who considers the Football League championship winning season under Keegan to be the most memorable for many years, and the Div2 play-off final against Gillingham as our most memorable game.

It's a bore-a-thon of the highest order. I've packed my season ticket in, I've had enough of the Premiership and I don't think I'm alone. There is a lot of disgruntlement out there. 14% ticket price increase at Old Trafford??? Agreed - especially about the quality of commentary coming from the likes of Motson and Tyldesley.
