In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
This commentator is full of shit. Implying that Fergie has intimidated the ref into the 4 minutes.
Bet you wished you put money on that
Cheers Wes
One request for Christmas. Buy a bloody midfielder.

The commentator said earlier that Welbeck didn't celebrate much - so it must be an own goal.
Yeah, nothing to do with him playing for Sunderland for a season?

Not really, in fact there's nothing ironic about it at all.
He's big,
He's bad,
He's Wesley Brown,
The hardest man in all the town,
With orange hair beware,
Come and have a go if you dare...

Welbeck will get the credit, it's not an OG...but still 
No idea. I've only been tuned in for the last 10 minutes or so, but he's come off as an absolute tool so far.
He hasn't seen all the different stoppages during the half ?
Hope Welbeck gets it though for his confidence
Well, thank you Wesley!
It's been dire again but he saved our asses. Hopefully there will be some football from United in the second half, for a change.

Wesley Brown is a RED!
the normal numbskulls commentating you mean.
Time to put Sunderland to the sword. Bring the One on in the second half

Was never going in until Brown hit it I think. Will almost certainly be recorded as an own goal.
That Brown OG covered up what was a pretty forgettable half from us. You can't really say we even had an attacking spell out there. There's been very little urgency from us and the tempo has been so slow.
We must improve. Play some football to get people on the edge of their seats at least.

Lads, we can't play champagne football every single week. Try supporting Carlisle for a few years and then go back to United, you spoilt bunch of knobbers.
Welbeck got a touch so surely they'll give it to him?
The move that lead to the corner was honestly the only half decent move from us all match. Rooney is wasted in central midfield
Well, that was another horrible half. The football we played at the start of the season looks lightyears away from the shite I'm watching now.
Up your game lads !

Irony of fate (cosmic irony)
The expression “irony of fate” stems from the notion that the gods (or the Fates) are amusing themselves by toying with the minds of mortals with deliberate ironic intent. Closely connected with situational irony, it arises from sharp contrasts between reality and human ideals, or between human intentions and actual results. The resulting situation is poignantly contrary to what was expected or intended.
The words ironic, irony, and ironically are sometimes used of events and circumstances that might better be described as simply "coincidental" or "improbable".[14]
Shouldve been more than 4 after the Wickham and Richardson injuries.
Did the commentator really say that?
and we scored in the first minute of the 4 so dont see how its important
Nani play better towards the end....
Brian Little is as good an analyst as he is a manager.
HINT - He has no managerial job.

What do you expect when we're playing a winger and striker in midfield. Any team would've struggled having said that our play has been painfully slow.
Welbeck's touch was never going to be a goal without someone else getting to the ball. Definitely an OG.
Brown o.g 89th min
Well...sunderland have to open up a bit now, so hopefully we will step on the pedal a bit
Definitely an OG. We should be better in the 2nd half with the lead to play with.
Don't know what people expect, we've had the much superior possesion, playing against a team that is being very defencevise hoping to catch us on the break.
Brown
It looked like it was headed goalwards to me. As long as it was an on-target shot, it's Welbeck's goal.
Hernandez has touched the ball about 5 times in the whole half.
Safety first approach taken by both teams has led to a stalemate. I recognise that the team must have been stung by the City result but is really necessary to be this conservative? Jones' overlap on 45 minutes was the first time either of our full backs had given that option when we were attacking. Sure we were too gung ho against City with 10 men but we could do with being a bit more attacking in a game like this.
Hopefully it'll open up a bit. Evra seems to be our only player who wants to play at a high tempo.
