Good morning ladies and gents, boys and girls. I used to post here a long time ago when it was just one page of total carnage and I have now decided to throw caution to the wind and weigh in on the debates on this site since the elusive Ed002 has gone MIA, which just leaves us common folk to educate ourselves and enlighten each other with perspective.
First off I would like to congratulate the many posters who I have followed on here over the past years for continuing their good work and even those who just ramble on like mad men, you are all very entertaining. Secondly, I will be the first to put my hands up and say I am at crossroads with our beloved club at the moment. Last season for me was tough to watch and I can only hope that this season we cross the finish line that we have been running towards since Fergie called it a day.
Of course I am stoked with the signings we have made thus far and have faith that we have able, committed lads, that can help us reach the heights of old. I will admit I am not fully sold on the LVG philosophy after last season but I saw Mourinho dither in his first year returning to the bridge and of course who can forget Moyes's baptism of fire so I am by all means willing to play devils advocate and reserve judgement on the manager until next season.
Finally I would like to take this opportunity to make you all aware that I do have a strong opinion like most on here and I may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. Just remember that sometimes different roads lead to the same castle.

Apologies in advance if I am wrong , and I mean that sincerely. But the way you talk (type), you sound an awful lot like the recently departed JMB.
Words like "folk" and "stoked" are very JMB'esque.
{Ed001's Note - could just be an Aussie thing?}

Hello Betty, I don't know whether to take that as a compliment in terms of being well educated or take offence but I shall give you the benefit of the doubt and plump for the former.
Then again who knows I could be a reincarnated JMB or Britney Spears for all you lads know. Anyway not to be a party pooper by putting a pin in your pink little bubble but unfortunately you are erring my friend and your jigsaw pieces won't fit togehter here. Anyway I accept your apology.
Pep - it's good to be back in the thick of it.

jred - JMB basically picked up an old post and tried to play the 'I told you so' card on Ed002 who suggested Schweinsteiger wouldn't leave Bayern (which was probably true at the time). No idea if JMB tried to say anything else but he has been banned from the site now. I won't be shedding any tears for him personally.

Having read the page for a while now Rosie I admit that reading JMB's posts were sometimes borderline lunacy but I thought he was a decent poster and brought a lot to the site like many others. I am not defending him here (I already have inspector Betty on my back after one post!) but as a regular reader I enjoyed the banter between all the regulars, even the menacing Kloot. Then again for all we know JMB could have been sending abuse day in day out to the editors and if that was the case then a ban is fair in my book.

He had done good points but far too negative and there's a line and he crossed it. We only saw what was cleared for posting.

Ha Ha Rollo , its Chief Inspector actually! No offence intended mate. It just sounded like JMB , that's all. Especially "not being sold on the LvG philosophy".
We did clash a couple of times , but JMB did have some good post and interesting things to say at times. He just couldn't help being a dipstick sometimes and courting attention.
Anyway , welcome to the site. I will now remove mysef from your back and leave you alone. Have a nice day :)

He used to be better to be fair to him. He posted under the name JuanMatasBeard. Then he pissed off the ed and everyone got annoyed at him and then after that all of his posts just seemed to be attempts at being edgy.

Maze,
Do not fret my friend I was also 'suspected' of being JMB by some posters on this site for reasons still unknown to me. It seems a little funny when you consider he was apparently the scourge of this page some people can't help but constantly mention him.
I would tend to agree with you about Januzaj but I also think like Harry he won't fulfil his potential here but may grow into a fantastic player elsewhere like the way Kevin de Bruyne has done.
{Ed001's Note - funny you have the same IP as MAZE.....
Right I am going to give you a final warning - we do not allow multiple accounts, delete all the rest and stop trying to back up your own posts using multiple accounts of your own or you will be permanently blocked from posting.}

I actually hope he stays put and proves to the fans he can replicate the form that made him a starter a few years back. He is one of our own from the academy, homegrown and is not on a significant salary compared to others I assume.
If he wants to leave for first team football regularly then fair enough but for example if you put Evans and Di Maria on the same pitch at Old Trafford I know which one would do his damnest and work his socks off for 90mins.
And no I am not comparing Evans and Di Maria's ability before I get executed lol.
