Childish.

I agree fussball is childish (but bl**dy lucrative)

Does anyone outside Surrey, and Thailand really give a to$$ ??

I do

But you don't appear to be too bothered about Liverpols result last night - it's not because they won by any chance, is it??

Excellent win by my home town last night......Come on the Reds

Its because we're not bothered

they're no threat to our world domination again this year

F.O.S......

Well at least L'pool know how to score an away goal in Europe


Utd should have had at least 3 or 4 on Tuesday Nite

You know nowt you big daft idiot

Ahhh, but we're getting warmer - Scousers gonna get ya (next season



)

Man Utd could win every trophy for the next 20 years and still they wont be as famous as the mighty Liverpool. You live in our shadow

Ha ha Remind me who s top of the league?

Whos already won 1 trophy with the 2nd to follow this weekend

I am not really a football fan but i would agree with this, and i think Utd fans know it and it drives them crazy.

Lets have a look at 3 trophys that matter eh

League titles 17 (18 in a few weeks time) 18
F.A cups 11 7
European cups 3 5

I make that 31 trophys to 30 and i'm pretty sure the 76000 fans that pack old trafford every week cast a larger shadow than the 45000 bin dippers

You will all be the same city in 50 years with global warming.

76000 cockneys every week in manchester, bet the m1 is busy

Lets break that down, and look at trophies won during the two clubs period of domination in football:

Liverpool (1972-1990)

League titles 11
Euro Cups 4 (won over a nine year period.....and 2 Uefa cups as well)
F.A cups 4

Man. U (1992-date)

League titles 10 (could be 11 by season end)
Euro Cups 2 (over same nine year period.....CWC won pre 1992)
F.A. cups 4 (could be 5)*

That breaks down as 18 to (potentially) 17......you're still behind!!


And should we even include the FA Cup in [i"trophies that matter"[/i??

Seem to remember United not being that concerned about the history and tradition of the FA cup a few seasons back!!

OK serious question to football fans, Does sitting in the Sky bar or at home with your Man Utd shirt on shouting at the screen make you a true supporter?
I only support Leigh Centurions and go as often as i can and if there was a struggle for tickets(as if) as there is in football i would do my utmost to get one, i class this as supporting my team.

I think its the other way around (as a neutral)

I would say its the other way around, certainly across the world most Premiership clubs are big news in the sports pages/TV (note for Leyther Matt, I said most, Horwich FC don't appear in many peoples thoughts in Malaysia, Seoul or even Farnworth

).

Man Utd ,Real Madrid , Barcelona , Bury (I wish

) and AC/Inter Milan seem very popular "supported" teams.
Liverpool , Arsenal, Chelsea , Celtic and Bayern Munich with a few other notable names in Europe appear in a 2nd tier of "support".

Most popular top.....
Brazil.

Football clus do get a hell of alot of money from TV company deals,someone has to pay it.

Hardly!

United are probably one of the biggest names in football if not the biggest, my girlfriend was driving accross america years ago with the family and in the middle of no-where they got asked where they were from, when they answered Manchester the yank replied hey manchester united!

Liverpool may have won more European cups and league titles (for now

) but United are certainly more well known world wide!
