Someone sign up and tell him we just have a shit pitch because we had to sack our alcoholic groundsman for stealing in the till at the bar and the new guy isn't as good.
How the other half live.
I hope you can substantiate that claim with more than hearsay fella |

Just some perspective, I recall some years ago that Man Utd's youth team played a pre-season friendly against Swindon's first team at The County Ground and won 3: 0. I think that we were in League 1 at the time. Don Rogers should give the pre-game team talk on Saturday.
I think you are thinking of us playing Man Utds U23 side, last night was the U18s, so nowhere near as good a level as the U23s TBH. It was thought still a great result. |

Isn't it common knowledge? Thought it was already posted on here if I'm honest. Not trying to dig at him either. |

I don't think it was what you allude to. I believe (and I don't known this for fact) he had an alcohol problem which he sadly couldn't overcome and went to get help. |

Pretty standard for Utd fans, their 90's success has produced a generation of fans that act like thay are still a superpower so any loss must generate a conspiracy. Ollie at the wheel and all that.. |

Apologies if untrue. Thought I was working off something that was true and generally known.

Thanks, that makes sense, but shows the quality that should have been on show. |
