Portsmouth vs Manchester United Wednesday 15 August (19:45 BST)

let me jus say this before I go and get drunk ... all these calls for bannings (just because a few dissappointed people have wound some of you up) are stupid .... ban them from the match day thread for sure if they are serial offenders but otherwise leave it, we drew 2 games in a row I don't think any of us would/should be happy right now.
 
A point is a good result in Portsmouth no matter what the time of the season, I'd be happy with a point against City aswell, after that we have to start winning.

I see what your saying, but in modern football you have to start well. A draw on Sunday and we are in trouble. However unlike some muppets think in here, we still would not of lost the title.

Well, the obvious ones will most definitely be repeat offenders. fecking talk about ruining it for everyone.

We are all on edge, but some of the stupid shit flying around is beyond belief. Thank feck they aren't there actually booing our own players, huh?
 
what a rotten day, chelsea, liverpool arsenal all winning and we drew again.
 
Its only 4 points!!! Don't panic.

One loss and a draw! I have a feeling this team will click into gear in a few weeks. Its early, please don't panic. Keep the faith.
 
I said great start to the SEASON, not league you cuntist. They have all played 2 games.
So if United had finished 3 or 4th last season, and got to play a crappy european team and beat them, you'd be happier? Beating Pompey is a hell of a lot harder than beating feckin' Toulouse.

After a draw on Sunday we still have 105 points to play for, plenty enough to get the 90 odd we'll need to win the championship.

Of course they're a hard team, but we SHOULD BE BEATING TEAMS LIKE READING AND POMPEY FOR feck SAKE! :mad: Just look at the quality squad we have.
 
feck the doomlords

am pissed off I didnt see game tonight,sounds like we played well,at least if we were shit we could moan,

Im not going into depression,it will come good,can't deal with people slagging our team off,2 games in...get real...


(not looking forward to work tho tomorro,blah blah blah....armchair cnuts!)
 
Everyone...Just remember how gutted you were when we drew at Fratton last season. I thought we had handed chelseascum the league. We pulled it out. Chins fecking up. Its 3 fecking days into the season! Nothing is over.
You don't think Chelsea are going to drop 4 points the whole fecking season? Rooney is a big loss. But Tevez is in now, and Saha will be back soon (before he hurts himself and is out for 6 months). Horrible start no doubt, but you can feck yourself with talk of "I quit if we don't beat City". fecking gloryhunter. Quit then.
 
Look at the players we still have out injured. We still have two strikers to come back, our captain, Hargreaves and Anderson will play some part. Tonight was the first test for Nani and Tevez and it sounded like they done well. We have a team for the future even if we don't win right away we have a lot to look forward too. And lets not forget there is the Champions League aswell!

Did anybody actually see what Ronaldo done?
 
Of course they're a hard team, but we SHOULD BE BEATING TEAMS LIKE READING AND POMPEY FOR feck SAKE! :mad: Just look at the quality squad we have.
If you're saying that Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal will win every one of these types of games this season then you're deluded. There's always a feckup or 2 away to mid-ranking clubs.

As long as the team gets into a long winning run quickly then it won't be fatal.
But to get that run going Saha has to come back soon. I fear we won't get that run going away to City as that will be another tough game.
 
I think all this is just because of how much we have come to expect from our great side. Seriously though this isn't a time when we should all be saying how crap a start it is especially with the new boys in the team this is a time we should be showing our support and getting behind the lads!
 
its beyond a joke, im seething....but im not a glory hunting twat that takes success as a given

some of the people on here are born and bred mugs

Exactly!, but most fans these days dont bother getting behind the team and giving their support, they want success instantly and they dont realise that winning trophies takes time and a lot of effort, we must keep our faith.
 
What to say, 1-1 is okey but we should have won it. No we got a little pressure because Chelsea have won 2 of 2 and Liverpool/Arsenal hav won 1 of 1.

Van der Sar - 7
Brown - 7
Vidic - 7
Ferdinand - 7
Evra - 7

Carrick - 5
Scholes - 6

Nani - 7
Ronaldo - 6
Giggs - 7

Tevez - 7


By the way...

STEVE BENNET IS ABU

...but that, we did know.

to be fair its not justa bout faith..its about support.

critisism is good if warranted.

Fergie has got his selctions wrong, and sold cover in areas we are now vunerable

and for that he rightly deserves that critism. im sorry the man is not untouchable. he has got it wrong in that respect.

But to call him a cnut and give it the season is over shite is dramatic to the nth degree

i hope some of these cnuts do indeed feck off and support chelsea...
