Bluemoon goes into Meltdown

This post by some guy called hypnoticblue: "Just seen the news on Sky , did the rags just win the World Cup or WW3 or something, it looked like a typical 14 v 11 game they usually get, good goal disallowed, Rojo 2 footing and no card, Lingard 2 tackles the same but only 1 yellow, tossers.". But he is not talking about the 2 footed tackle on Martial, Lingard should have got 2 yellows it seems :lol:. They are so deluded.
 
Why do you think FA Cup lost its appeal? The League is defo regarded higher now that it used but...what happend to FA?
The PL becoming such a monied competition killed the FA Cup. Some will say we started the rot the season we went to Brazil in lieu of it, but the reality is once the huge money came pouring into the PL as well as the fourth place CL qualifying position, teams started playing weakened xi's in the Cup without hesitation and understandably prioritised their PL schedule over a tournament that no longer offered the prestige it once had.

For the FA Cup to become the genuinely huge competition it was, they would have to massively up the prize fund for winning it, imo. Even lower placed sides in the league will not risk their PL safety to go all out for the Cup these days, so unless you get two teams with PL security guaranteed and no chance of getting into Europe, you're not going to get many sides who will go absolutely all out in the competition. The rare occasions it will happen these days is when big sides are drawn against each other (derbies or scores to settle, or just plain pride) or when they get to the QF/SF stage and genuinely feel as though they could win the thing within a couple of games.

It's just far removed as a competition from the days when it was the biggest day of the domestic calender for a large portion of the country and would get insane viewing figures on terrestial TV and an entire day of well-followed build-up before kick off.
 
What's the mood like on there? Do they think they're over their shit spell?

My opinion is that their squad is very imbalanced imo. They have great strikers and AMs/wingers but the midfield is a 33 Toure basically and the defence has decent players but with no cohesion.

I see them spanking some teams and I also see the dropping points against teams that defend well and hit them on the counter. They'll continue to blow hot and cold.

It's not a form issue they have/had for me. It's the combination of the formation Pep plays and squad he has that makes them vulnerable.
 
Ah the usual straw man arguments

1. United are celebrating the league cup like it's the World cup
2. They call it the Mickey mouse cup when they don't win it but now they love it.
 
Tbh you guys aren't that better on here, were literally calling it a "Mickey Mouse Cup" when we played Liverpool last year. So *something along the lines of hypocrisy*.....

You don't have the right to call any trophy a mickey mouse cup. Pre-takeover Your trophy room consisted of a suitcase stuffed into a janitors closet. Anyone that wanted a look could go & have a mooch around. We on the other hand are now the most decorated side in the country. At the end of the day it's just another trophy racked up.

Why do you Bluemoon posters come to the Caf and waste your posts in the Bluemoon thread, wouldn't you just be better off just staying on Bluemoon?

Ibras nickname gets the height of their imagination then.
 
The Martial nickname is funny because he ripped Skrtel to pieces in his first game in England and sealed yet another win V Liverpool for Turtle, or Van Gaal as we know him.
 
City calling a trophy mickey mouse is a bit rich. Less than 10yrs ago you were relegation fodder. Settle down, a lottery win wont change my perception of you

They're unbelievable, instead of giving clubs credit they always come out with the usual "We are best side in England by a mile" "next year we will win the lot, we are the best"



When the Fa cup and/or league is won by someone else, theyll no doubt come out with the refs being biased, or the league being fixed and thats why they didnt beat X, Y and Z. And everyone being against City. its quite sad

How did his love for football survive this?

Sometimes, just every now and then, it's almost as if these conspiracy nuts are the ones trying to drive an agenda...

Ibra does something almost every game. Either a blatant dive or an attack on a player. Or both.

...And it hardly passes muster in the media.

Pogba wrestling (was) also a frequent blind eye - but now he's back to generally anonymous, so no worries.

Today might be the 1st time Ibra gets hauled over the coals. It's been far too late in coming - hence that exasperated reaction on Moon.

As an aside that was apparently only the 14th opposition person to ever score a penalty at Old Trafford in the PL era... so in 25 years... odd statistic dontchathink?
The statistics up to 2008 as quoted on the caf could be excused by football playing dominance, but now?

Because early on in his united career there was a newspaper story claiming that De Gea had been allegedly caught stealing a pack of doughnuts from a supermarket.

Not long after he first signed for us he went into Tesco and took a Krispy Kreme from the stand, ate it and walked out the shop without paying.

The Sir Bobby one gets me, why ticket tout? :lol:.

Haha really?! That's hilarious! It reminds me of the story of that celebrity chef who was caught stealing cheese from a supermarket.

The retarded reactions on BM are pure jealousy due to the fact that he has had an exceptional season. Many predicted he was too slow & would flop like Falcao. How wrong they were. To top it all we got him on a free whereas you paid £30 Mill for Bony, & countless more millions on strikers who have failed spectacularly. There are actually some on BM who still don't regard Ibra as a top level striker, the mind boggles?

A more odd statistic to me is the number of soft penalties you receive since 2008. You put this together with some of the crazy decisions made against teams when playing you & i find it hard to believe how you have failed to win the league more times.
 
Ah, something we agree on :-)

There you go, i knew there was a sense of humour in there, good on you. Most people would say spending over £2 Billion to buy 2 titles in a near decade was absolutely dreadful business. Glad you can see the funny side of it.

Iirc De Gea shat himself after it, apologised profusely, paid for it, and bought a couple of boxes for the store's staff.
