Sonny Feehan;9580957Average season attendances make more sense and I think that United crowds more than held their own against Liverpool in the 70s and 80s said:In fact, "more than held their own" is an understatement - in the 19 seasons between 1972/73 and 1990/91 (those years selected because they mark the era of Liverpool's dominance, of course), United had higher crowds than Liverpool in all but two seasons (1987/88 and 1988/89).

we had the highest attendances in the country even during our stint in Division 2. 60K+ attendances against the likes of Blackpool is fecking impressive. I think we've had the best attendances since 55 barring a couple of seasons. No club can match that....not in this country.
The reason United are so good at it, is because they have good counter attacking players who play in a team who are unable to control a game from the first whistle. Nani, Rooney, Chickpea, Valencia. All pacey and can break away when the oppurtunity arises. I know you can say it about any team, but I genuinely wonder without the pace on the wings how United would fare in the league. They won't control a game, teams always have chances against them. It's simply embarrassing that a team that is so distictly average can probably, probably go on to win the league again.

Counter Attacking Football. I hate.
Could be a gold mine for RAWKish twitishness
We are both shite and lucky, Nick. Live with it.
To be honest, most of the responses are undermining the OP's suggestion.

Blimey, Arsene Wenger is on RAWK.
When football is scored like Ice Dancing, this thread will be relevant. You play to your strengths, always. If you can exploit a team's weaknesses by sitting back then you'd be daft not to do it. We've done it plenty of times. In fact, in our absolute heydey, there were always critics calling us boring. And you know what? I didn't give a shit.
Honestly, there's more sense in that thread than nonsense, even if most of the people talking sense are loath to mention us.
I've always thought A@A was one of us on a WUM, but now it seems I have to conclude he's a genuinely disturbed individual. A sad end to many good laughs.has not only wished Paul Scholes dead this evening, but also his family.
Andy@Allerton said:The idea of Karma actually existing and it doing in him and his family. It must be said. That would be funny.
But sadly. In this world. Evil. Wrongdoing. Being a shithouse.
All rewarded.
Andy@Allerton said:Paul Scholes sums up what's fecked up about this country. Horrible little shithouses getting away with murder.

Link -- Scholes horrific tackling. Why is it just laughed off?
Good to see that the bastard got pulled up for it further down the page![]()
That new Utd/Munich docudrama
According to one RAWK poster, it is a 'disgrace' that the BBC are going to air a docudrama on the Munich Air Disaster due to it being an 'advertisement' for Man United. A new low?
