Thats wrong, totally wrong, as much as Durnan was poor for us, he didnt deserve that.
    Yea it's pretty shocking. Makes me wonder what the likes of brown and Griffiths have to read...

    To clarify I'm not against players getting criticism at all. I do it too so I'd be a hypocrite if I said that. I just think it goes to far sometimes and there are definitely some who get a kick out of the endless slagging of what is usual a select few every couple of years.

    You are wrong, very wrong!

    There isn't a single proper United fan who's enjoying this!!

    You seem to have a real downer on arabs who aren't oozing with misguided positivity and aren't shy in putting the boot in on here however, do you get a kick out of that?

You could see who was pushing to get involved in the first team and you got really great games, not to mention the quality trialists who played in these games. Two o'clock in the afternoon on a Monday, don't see much of a crowd being their to watch and encourage them.

    However at least the reserve league is back and the "Development League" has been binned.
    How can we not get them on the ‘zone?

    Was the story not that we brought him across here then his agent told him hearts were interested at the last min then he appeared for them in 'that' game? sure it was along those lines...
