Man U Fans

[charlotte_se22]

Hey folks

Since moving to the area I have a definite lack of people to go watch the footie with. I have ESPN so will catch those games at my place but don't have Sky Sports.

It would be nice to meet some like-minded United fans that enjoy meeting up to watch the game. Is there any other girls/guys around that catch up each match?

Thanks!

Charlotte :)

Just got to any pub in the area. There's probably more Man U fans south of the river that there are in Manchester.

[Brendan]

Yes it is truly sad how the populations of quaint Scottish villages have to move down to the big smoke to find work on the offices.

Their only solace to gather together around television sets and remember the old country with tearful ballads about past glories.

Tugs me strings it does.

[huncamunca]

heres a made up fact that may well prove to be true - most mancunians support City, whereas those from outside Manchester who know nothing about football supprot United.

[charlotte_se22]

A little stereotypical I feel.

My entire family on my Dad's side are Mancunians supporting United and have done for I can't even tell you how long. I know it was my Grandfather that got me into the sport when I was only young and I have followed it ever since.

My loyalties lie with United because of my heritage and because of my love and understanding of the game.

Your comment would prove otherwise and although I am well aware there are many 'glory' supporters out there - have we not come far enough in recent years to realise that there are glory supporters with many other clubs these days - Chelsea since they won the prem and even City since they came into the money. I think the badge that us United supporters get is a bit old hat nowadays and people need to just realise that perhaps we just love football????

[Sandperson]

Charlotte, I like you. Come over to the Football Focus thread.

[Brendan]

Oh is this about soccer.

I'll shut up then.

[Jah Lush]

Only a mild little leg pulling Charlotte. Come and join us on the football thread (Football Focus). There's some Man Utd fans on there. I'm a long suffering Spurs fan myself.

[charlotte_se22]

I know, I know. Get it aaaallllll the time so quite used to it - especially being a girl and all.

I will mosey on over to the Football Focus thread and have a gander :)

[Atticus]

Hi, there are lots of different places showing the footy. My personal fave is the Crystal Palace Tavern (CPT), also, if you want a Sat 3pm ko game live, the Vale usually obliges.

[Jah Lush]

Another thumbs up for the CPT. Also there is Hoopers and The Actress.

[Laddy Muck]

Hey! Welcome Charlotte! Me and another forumite (she may pop by later) REGULARLY (:-$) go to the Vale to watch the Man U games. Staff are not the friendliest, but we have our regular seats there LOL with a good view to a pretty large screen. Good selection of drinks too. The last match we saw there was against Newcastle on Tuesday (Saturday we went to Wembley for the Manchester Derby FA Cup Semi-final). Unfortunately I shall be watching the Everton match from a pub in Chipping Norton, but you are welcome to join us in future (feel free to PM).

GLORY GLORY MAN. UNITED...

PS: Charlotte...GREAT THREAD!(tu)

And, while I'm here: my current favourite player...Javier Hernandez

[charlotte_se22]

Hey!

If it is Jenayr you are talking about then I have just been chatting with her. She said you were away this weekend so I think it is just me and her on Saturday. Definitely up for the Schalke game on Tuesday though if you are back in time?

Look forward to it! :)-D

[Laddy Muck]

Ah Fukkit...may as well...my all-time United hero...

Are you old enough to remember George Best?

A GENIUS!

[Bluerevolution]

Denis Law is my all time fave ! Bwahahaha !

[charlotte_se22]

Well not quite old enough to have knowingly seen him in action but old enough to appreciate his talent! I bumped into his son Callum the other week actually at Paddington, never thought he was my type before but definitely better in the flesh!

Yes! It is Jenayr!!! That's right, I am away this weekend, but will be back for the Tuesday game at the Vale LOL. My life virtually revolves around United's games LOL - much to my hubby's despair! But YES, my diary for the 26th states "Schalke game" - again at the Vale. And then it's Arsenal on the 1st of May (Vale!)...so lots to look forward to. Can't wait!

WHO THE FUC IS MAN. UNITED...

I HAVE to ask, are you the Charlotte who used to play for a certain University? Blonde? Eye-liner?

[charlotte_se22]

You've lost me...I'm not blonde - I am a definite brunette but perhaps I am being blonde! lol.

Who is this blonde, eye-lined, university player? I am intrigued! :)

Oy! create your own thread!

Only joking! Actually, I remember Denis Law very well...you must be well old! Of course, he was the better player when playing for the classier Red Devils rather than for those urchins the Citizens!

*legs it*

[Mick Mac]

Denis Law is relegation man to United Fans....

Charlotte. I like you assuming your Scottish team is Celtic.

[Bluerevolution]

Glad you saw why a Man City fan would see Denis Law as a favourite ! 1974 and that famous back heal, luvverly
