I hope they go through the entire class of 92 and all "fergie's fledglings" one by one and United get progressively lower and lower in the league until they finally get relegated and go bankrupt under Beckham and Fergie cries himself to sleep in a pool of whisky.

he won't need to win any matches, it's all because of Moyes now so Giggs will get the perm position no matter what, and I said this as soon as it was announced. I can't wait for Giggs to get the job, and Moyes to get a job at some club who are always near the bottom, and moyes finishes above united and we will all do a massive lol.

He's been told. That's why he's turned into a petulant child the last month or so taking every opportunity to talk about how great he is and undermining the players. Also he did the whole "I couldn't go back to being an assistant manager now."

Most of Harry's old cronies in the press seem to also love Tim, and they've been talking up what a disgrace it is that an English manager is being treated like this.

If United don't bring in Klopp or someone of similar clout, it's a fairly easy transition where one manager with no chance of succeeding hands off to another manager with no chance of succeeding. Giggs ego has totally got the best of him here and I can't wait to see it blow up in his face.

Found this interesting, the picture gallery in the article shows how Anfield evolved over the years. I guess alot of the older stadiums followed a similar profile so its interesting to see how a simple football pitch almost organically grows to a stadium fit for the PL.

These are great.

I'm imagining now what would happen if Giggs did get the job, and then he won the league and all the other trophies including the crap ones. I imagine I would drink the sea and then replace the sea with all your tiny tears.

He's not asked for the job, they've said he's not in line for the job, he can't get a result in the last four games big enough to justify giving him the job

looking at previous tottenham point totals, it doesn't really seem like they're doing that poorly. if they win their final 3 matches they'll finish with a higher point total than they did when they made it into the champion's league
