In a short period of time Mick Phelan has used his Utd coaching experience under Fergie to convince the players that it is a reasonable idea to pass the ball to someone in the same colour of shirt, e.g. red with a hint of black!!!
🤔
Coach, players, system, shape, tactics, bollocks!!! To win red team need to run harder and faster than the white team, i believe it’s occasionally referred to as desire!!! 🤔
A few months ago, I had the privilege of visiting Harry Gregg at his home, he showed me his astonishing collection of memorabilia. We sat in his front room and I listened to Harry’s tales, some sad, many of them joyous. I was blessed that day.
Deepest condolences to his family.
At Utd Liam Miller, was a quiet, unassuming, humble lad who loved playing and training always striving to give his all everyday. A model pro.
condolences to his family & friends.
Sad to hear of the passing of Billy McNeil, a true legend of Celtic and football, I am eternally grateful to him for taking a chance and signing me for Celtic in 1983. Deepest condolences to all his family and friends

If United can look after Greenwood in the same way Ferguson did with Giggs/Scholes then he can be as good as they were, as he has the tools for the job that they had! 🙂
A number of years ago I was taken to OT by the “Gaffer”, where to my surprise and delight, Gary Rhodes was cooking our lunch. Gary was hilarious, entertaining and humble. Great food, great day, vivid memories.
Deepest condolences to his family and friends on this v sad day. 😢
“28 years ago Arsenal lost it, apart from Spunky!!!”
Each year of the anniversary my throat contracts where Michael Thomas throttled it and my ear twitches where that brave lad Limpar punched me from behind and ran away to the toilets to hide!!!

🤣🤣🤣
Steven Gerrard has just been asked what would happen if there was a substantial bid for Morelos, he asked interviewer what substantial was, the reply was an 8 figure bid, Gerrard said as much as a £1,000,000!!!
Just listens to dude say Gerrard won almost all the major honours while a player, I’d like to claim that I almost won all too, including Scottish League Cup, Champions League and World Cup!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Having a coffee in Edinburgh with my mate Brian. A year ago suffering alcoholism & the death of his son he tried taking his own life. As his recovery continues he found
#breakthestigma
a big help, he’s an inspiration to me & others whom he’s helping with their problems
Always found Eric Harrison was hard, but fair with the players & had a cracking wit & humour. I played in the Youth Team once under him, he was also pretty impressive at delivering the “hairdryer treatment”!!!
Deepest sympathies to his family & friends on this sad day
Regarding my mullet:
Everyday Tommy Burns, would come up to me and roar like a lion pretending his hands were claws and then he’d sit down and get changed!!!
🤣🤣🤣
In ‘92, SAF brought in Trevor Lea a nutritional guru, his first act was to confiscate the custard creams, bourbons & choc digestives. He had a Jiffy bag from which he pulled the performance enhancing superfood that was key to Utd’s success over the next 16 years!!!
I’ve managed to walk from tram past Utd Megastore to Hotel Football through the milling hordes and then to Bishop’s, walk in buy a drink, sit down without anybody recognising me!!!
I guess I not big in the Far East!!!
🤣🤣🤣
Roy Hodgson will become the oldest PL manager tomoz 71yrs and 198 days, the world not understand it is not the number of seconds, minutes, hours, decades that we roam the earth that defines us, it is ones energy that should be the measure 🤔
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Roy
This morning 3 guys in Scotland arrived at their place of work, got changed into their Black uniforms and started their shift, soon one decided to be the star of the show, another decided in one instance that he was going to be famous...
MOTD pundit Shay Given: "What a player he is - the £34m LFC paid for him looks like an absolute bargain. Will be interesting to see if they can keep him in the summer. All the big clubs in Europe will be looking at him."
Is Shay saying Liverpool are not a big club?
🤣🤣🤣
🗣️Jamie Redknapp: “If Utd want to stop playing boring football, Jose should go out & sign him. Mourinho is not going to make a player like Bale track back and help out the left back. He will want to get the ball to him at the top of the team & win them matches.”

Very sorry to hear the sad news that “Meekie” has gone to the hockey pitch in heaven. An excellent journalist, always fair. He & I shared a similar sense of humour, a pleasure to have had so many enjoyable debates with him, deepest condolences to his family & friends.
Sad to hear that Terry Beckett has passed away. Terry trained & played with “The Babes”. And scouted for Utd for 30+ years.He was so proud of his achievements at Utd, which were numerous. He loved family, Utd, life & football. Deepest condolences to all his family and friends
“Manchester United & English football were robbed of part of their histories when that plane crashed at Munich 60 years ago. But the legend of the Busby Babes, the dream of what they might have become & the memory of their youth & their promise lives on & on.”

👀 my memories of United v Arsenal, including the 21 man brawl where I was harshly treated by Keith Hackett after it all calmed down, he allowed me to remain on the pitch!!!
🤣🤣🤣

I’m in vincity of Celtic legend Ľubomír Moravčík, one of his ex-team mates said that at at Q&A he was asked why he hadn’t gone into management, he replied, “because I’m a lazy b####

Paul O’Connell the ex captain of Ireland is exactly what a media pundit should be, Clear, concise, intelligent, knowledgeable, informative, humorous, neutral, cliche free and humble
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
❓Do you know who was the first United player to score over 20 league goals since George Best?
📝
@Matthewjcrist
takes a look who achieved this in their debut season...
@ManUtd
@adidasfootball
A figment of Alan and Gary’s fertile imagination! Fergie wasn’t happy with Tina Turner, he wanted “Walk Away” by Matt Monroe, when I laughed at this, he stormed off and suggested I pick a tune(not his exact words!)
I chose the Roses man!
In 1998 I was sitting in the coach’s room at The Cliff when The Gaffer brought Hugh McIlvanney in, wasn’t long before he had us roaring with laughter with hilarious tales about Busby, Stein, Shankly & some boxing dude delivered with impeccable timing with that velvet voice...
Recently spent a bit of time with an ex-colleague who has just brought a book oot, he told me that, he wasn’t much of a reader, he declared that he’d read 3 1/2 books over the last 31 years 🤣
He read 1/2 of his own book, stopped as it was boring him!!! 🤣
@GNev2
I had to read because my parents wouldn’t tell me anything. The answer to all of my questions was, “if you want to know, look it up”!!!
It very humbling that Gaz should award me such an accolade, thanx.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Once after his shift bagging coal, Gordon Banks went to watch his local team & ended up in goal in work clothes, bemusing all with plumes of dust with every save! Had the pleasure of meeting him, a legend of football & humble human being. Deepest condolences to his family
Ings and Mata did today, what is expected of sports persons by Managers, Coaches, fans and loved ones, roll their sleeves up, put in a shift and when their tanks were empty get replaced, content that they did their best. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
How many others? 🤔
I’ve just been chastised, v politely, by a 4 yr old girl, who informed me that one wasn’t allowed to cross the road when the man on the lights was red, as I had done! 😱
Rail travel chaos, lines down between Carlisle & Lancaster, gave up my seat to MCR Airport, to a pregnant woman whose earlier train was cancelled.
Several ppl who should offer to give up their seats to others, pretending not to notice!!
When did we become so selfish? 😞
So it begins...finally joined Twitter to see what all the fuss is about, here over in Norway meeting some Norwegian Reds and enjoying the warm weather and the Aurora Borealis! 👍 😎
Bernard Halford, City personified, a gentleman, loved his football, loved his club, whenever I was in his company he would always come over for a chat, he was humble, dignified and humorous, he will be sadly missed by the football family and the people of Manchester
