There will be 2 planes flying over O.T. Tomorrow. One will be the anti Moyes banner but the other one has not been announced. The pilot said, on radio, that his client has not given him permission to announce what the other banner will say. Maybe it's a backing for Moyes. Cannot see 2 banners against him. Either way it shouldn't happen. The man is trying his best and untill he gets his own players in you will not be able to judge him. Patience and support is what is needed. Maybe the other banner will say keep Moyes, paid for by Chelsea, Liverpool and city.
1.) Apparently its supposed to be a cheeky add by paddy power
2.) Paddy power are ruthless

Just read your report on the Liverpool site. Absolutely fantastic news. Been searching numerous times every day for an update and finally great news. All the best to you and your wife and treasure the little fella. It won't be the first time that he will cause you grief. I've now got 6 grand kids and I don't know how I've managed all of those years with the grief caused by my kids. Start him off with a tennis ball and work up to a full sized ball. Oh and pay for the windows he will smash. Again, great news Chris.
1.) Thanks mate :-)

Just heard about your newborn son. Keep strong mate and I, m 100% with you. If there is a god then your little one will grow to be another Man United fan. My thoughts are with you at this time. Rivalries are second when things like this happens. Good luck and all the best. When all is ok drop a line onto the Liverpool forum if you will, just to let us know. All the best from Liverpool

Liverpool fan here, not to gloat. Though I am a Liverpool fan I am also a football fan. You lot need to calm down a bit and do what you do best. Support whoever is in the shirt. Players come and go, as do managers but the shirt is what counts. Did everyone expect a smooth transition after Fergie went? We have been through what you are going through now and you should learn from our mistakes. Accept that this year is going to be crap and look forward and support. Any new players who are thinking of coming to your place would expect you to support your team always. Give the Manager time to build his own team and if any of the prima donnas don't like the way a manager wants them to play, get rid. Just remember who you are, you don't support players, you support the shirt. A lot of you will only have known success, just as I did way back but you will not achieve anything by in fighting. Accept that the club need you now, more than when you were very successful. Some of the older fans will remember the dark days and when you haved lived through them, the success becomes even sweeter. I am actually enjoying the way that we are doing things now. Seriously though, support the shirt whatever happens. If it doesn't work out with the present manager then keep supporting. I think, given enough time that Moyes will come good for you. It may take 2 or 3 years but you have to accept that. Constant changing will not help. Fergie asked you to give him your support just as some of you older ones gave Fergie your support. Hope it turns around for you apart from when you play us. What is that saying? Oh yes, united we stand, divided we fall.
1.) Gudonya Robbie.
It is true that we should be supporting the club and the way I see it, it is the hierarchy in the order of Club=>Manager=>Player. This should make it very clear that NO ONE IS BIGGER THAN THE CLUB. And that's what Fergie stands for.
All that said, I still am hopeful that MU will take this time to consolidate their strategy and look forward to next season and take the remaining of this season to filter out the "non fitting".
Everyone deserves a chance just like DM is giving to the players (this season). We will then gauge DM next season after he has refine the team. I think that is only fair.
2.) All very good coming on here telling us to be loyal, yet I would be interested in the assessment of Liverpools treatment of Roy Hodgson who they gave less time than we have given Moyes. I have said before Scousers I know want Moyes to stay and openly say it suits them the longer he does.
I am one of the older fans who stood by SAF but he had a winning CV, Moyes is clearly out of his depth and does not merit that loyalty
3.) Amazing how every other manger and group of fans says we need to give Moyes time and support him. However, we all know that privately they are praying that we never fire Moyes. I acted the same way when Liverpool hired Kenny back and when Chelsea hired AVB.
4.) You sack Moyes then. Who will you get? It will end up manager after manager plus their own back room staff, all costing a lot of money to sack. No stability, changing players to suit the particular manager. Dodgy route to go down. Fergie waited years to start winning and I remember fans wanted him out then. Patience and support. No skin off my nose, like I said, I am also a football fan
5.) Fair play to ya Robbie mate, thanks for the comments, appreciated bud
6.) Robbie, I know your game. Leave Moyes at united for another five years, win nothing, become laughing stock, all Liverpool fans in heaven. We know how u feel, as we've wished the same for Liverpool when beitez. Hodgeson and co were your managers.
Sadly, Rodgers seems to have turned it round for you.
7.) No midfield
You don't know my game as you put it. Football fans are the same the world over. Some are sensible and some are blind. I used to watch Bury in the 60s, I was at the charity shield in the scoreboard end (open) when pat Jennings scored over stepney. I was in the Stratford end against I also used to watch Bolton on a few occasions in the late 60s. It was in 1971 when I first went to watch Liverpool and I was hooked. Travelled all over Europe and the uk . As I said, a football fan.
8.) Oh, and by the way, George Best is the best player I have seen live. I remember him getting bombarded with oranges because he had done an advert on the telly for Jaffa oranges. Funny how I can remember things like that and forget things from last week. Suppose I am getting old.
9.) Against Estudiantes in the world club championship, 1968 I think
10.) Nice one, Robbie. People forget amongst all the over-hyped tribalism, that just because you support a particular team, doesn't mean you can't appreciate other players or clubs.
I always want to see strong Utd and Liverpool teams competing against each other. We need each other more than we care to think.
But maybe we're just getting old, mate.

Man City have gained permission to increase their capacity to 62000.
As Arsenal were known as the Invincibles, do Man City want to be known as the invisibles?
At many of their games there are masses of empty seats. Or are they invisible fans? Maybe it, s for concerts and other events.
1.) I wouldn't get too casual about it, Robbie.
A successful team can easily take hold of a new generation of kids.
When I was a kid, Liverpool shirts outnumbered our Utd shirts, by about 2-1. Through our great years in the 90s and 00s, you hardly saw a young boy in a Liverpool top over here.
Now I see young lads at my son's football academy with City shirts on.
There was never anyone in City shirts, growing up.
If the success continues, the fans will come.
2.) It's for show as you said they can't even fill it now it's just too make them look bigger and impress people
3.) The more successful city become the more day trippers and glory hunters will want tickets, don't underestimate there growth in world football, they have an owner with the money and the will to push them into the worlds elite.they give schools tickets for kids at silly prices but are snaring the next generation of fans.if you live in manchester you would definately more kids and teenagers wearing city colours than a few years back
4.) Like many have said they can't fill it now but why wait till they get to that stage where its full then do it if its possible now, maybe if we had the same attitude with our midfield we wuddent be in the position we are
5.) Excellent news for the city of Manchester. Should create some jobs and keep the development moving in a part of the city which can do with all the investment it can get.
6.) Also, begs the question, why aren't Utd increasing capacity to 100,000?
7.) Can we? I really don't know.

Sorry but Klopp is anfield bound when Rodgers leaves for Barcelona or Real Madrid
As a Liverpool fan I would like to say I totally agree with you. Any player who contrives to get another player booked or sent off is an ar**hole. Thought suarez stayed on his feet a lot more than usual yesterday. Hope that continues. We could, and should of had 2 more penalties and you should have had 1 when Johnson handled. It's time to rebuild and it does take time. Hard to accept but we have been through it although we didn't have any money to do it quicker. Mis-management by us over the years is a lesson that you
should learn from otherwise it could be a long time before you compete at the
top again.
Totally agree. Support any player who is giving 100%. Regardless of who he plays for.
Against Estudiantes in the world club championship, 1968 I think
