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.
What makes me squirm is watching a club legend tarnish his reputation every fecking game he plays by putting in dogshit performances. It's gone on too long now and if he were in a defensive position, he'd had to retire about the same time Neville did. I don't want to watch a player I love and wanted to emulate as a child ruin my memories of him by replacing them with memories of constant fecked up passes. I love Giggs and it's for that reason I want him to take a back seat.
Granted I may be exaggerating there and I don't really wish for Giggs to retire but he shouldn't be starting games at all now, and if he does he certainly shouldn't be playing in a midfield fecking two with Michael Carrick when the pair of them have the pace of a fecking tortoise turned on its back.
feck's sake Phelan.
It should be entertaining that's for sure 
carrick and giggs in the middle brought us to a champions league final last year. stop being such drama queens and watch the fecking match
Anderson was the defensive one? Did you watch the game?
Not read the thread as I'm on my phone but I have to imagine, having seen the lineup, it'll be a lot of grumbling about Giggs instead of Anderson. Seems crazy to me too.
There he goes again...
Just get use to it
No, last year we were knocked out in the group stages by fecking Basel.
What does Anderson have to do to start a football match ahead of a 39 y.o. winger?
We have three midfielders on the bench while a almost 39 year old converted winger is starting in what was a tough away game last season. Does that make sense? Also, he has been terrible so far this season.
Both are better than him in a two man mid. If they are not, then we should have bought a central midfielder in the summer. And I am not talking about a 18 year old or an AM.
Leave
wisdom teeth
last year we didnt even qualify for the knockout stages - what you been smoking - i'd like some.
We'll go 1-0 down bring on a midfield at half time and win 2-1.
Ferguson will talk in his press conference about how we need to 'stop conceding early goals' and 'how good it is that we have so many players capable of turning things around'
fecks sake.

So what ? Carrick & Giggs will get overrun again, and Van Persie or Chicha will get us out of jail again. It's written in the stars.
Giggs shoudn't be anywhere near a starting line up, away from home and in a 2 man midfield.
Had his wisdom teeth pulled this week and can't play.
We were nowhere close to the CL final last year.
Giggs is a club legend and deserves his place in the squad. I'd keep him forever if I could.
But he shouldn't be starting in a midfield two.

Carrick and Giggs - Resistance is futile.
Except for maybe Giggs, that is the strongest team we can field today.
I'm criticizing SAF's to start Giggs but if he plays well I'll be my usual hypocrite (most of us will tbh)
no last year was 2011 and we were in the final
i never said last season.
and people who keep saying rvp or hernandez will "get us out of jail"...theyre our strikers...they will likely score the goals..does messi get barcelona out of jail every week. no. this constant need to be negative is incredibly annoying, the game has even started and minds are made up. lets say we win 3-0 and giggs plays well, it will of course because "norwich were shit". bunch of idiots for the most part.
so what is it....Norwich go 2 - 0 up and we make changes in the second half after playing shite in the first and come back and win 3-2?
No room for sentimentality in football. If he's not good enough anymore he can start coaching, it's a farce he's playing today.
We cant keep coming from behind every week. We will get caught sooner or later if we keep falling behind.
But it was also 2 seasons ago. Long forgotten by me, as it was one of the most one sided finals in history.
When people on here write 'I wish Cleverley or Anderson were starting instead of Giggs', it must show up on some other people's computers as 'Giggs is a complete cnut, I hope he contracts AIDS and dies a horrible, slow death.'
Show some goddamn respec'!!!!!!!!
Show some goddamn respec'!!!!!!!!
Yeah, let's hope we'll have the chance to display some immense hypocrisy.
Hopefully Norwich won't insist on this pressing and harassing and closing down thing.
He could have retired a couple of seasons ago with the memories of him untarnished, now...
fecking hell. Don't like moaning about the manager's decisions but it's just baffling why we're playing with that line-up. Valencia and Young out of form, Ando's been in good form and Giggs is just Giggs. Fergie on a WUM.
Rubbish. They've got a very good team and for all we know they are certainly capable of putting up more of a fight than "title contenders" Spurs of last season.
Have a word with yourself mate, the difference in form compared to last year and the season before that is massive.
We don't have Rooney today. Don't be so sure.
Let's hope Valencia and Young come to play today or we are in for a very long day.
When I blast specific players before a game they sometimes have a tendency to play well.
On that note, why are Giggs and Young in the fecking team?

Need to cut Hoolahan out of this game....he can do us damage if given the space...
I will back SAF yhan 90% of the wankers on here, we have become muppets go support City
