Just as there are tweets relating to United that are getting responses, you pop up with your usual attention seeking shit. Honestly to sit there and spend this much time all for recognition as a complete twat is truly sadness taken to a new level. You’ve single handedly ruined this thread. How the feck this isn’t considered a clear WUM is beyond me.
Why would you let yourself get this angry about a transfer tweet thread? :lol:

Some people also support lower league teams as well. Sometimes they are about kids who have moved on from United, so it is nice to know where they are.
Fully agree. Nice to read about actual transfers instead of the usual bull. I applaud all the work and dedication Fridge has put into this thread other the summer.

So the Dybala situation seems like he would be open to both joining us/or staying but someone representing him is asking for too much money and we wont pay it (based on Evra and Dybala instagram post). The Eriksen rumours might just be a smokescreen for us to seem like we’re moving on to try lower some fees involved with Dybala. If Sarri has told him hes not needed I won’t be surprised if he forces his move, just depends where.

You know it, I know it and he knows that those tweets are of zero interest to 99% of people on here. He’s doing it because he lacks any sort of attention in real life, so would much rather spend that much of his time to build up an online persona of some sort of meme. He’s even shit at being a WUM. feck me at least the likes of Pert, Weaste and to an extent @esmufc07 were entertaining. This cnut is just using a technicality to get around being banned.
Anyway I’m out of this thread, you guys enjoy reading about league 2 team signings.

The best way to deal with somebody you think is an attention seeking wum is definitely to moan and whinge about it. That way, he definitely knows he hasn't wound you up completely, and he also knows you're not giving him the attention he craves.

Bravo.

Cheers. So about 24 hours remaining. Would really like one more signing. Agree with the sentiment that midfield is more important than striker.
25 hours and 55 minutes as of now

I would be amazed if one person gave a shit :lol:

No one does. There's absolutely no one in this transfer thread that gives a toss. I would go further and say that actual Forest Green rovers fans don't give a toss about JJ Wolacott.

It's evident by no one actually even commenting on the tweet other than "Tune"

A lot of people do enjoy watching soap operas.
As do the media. It's always been a soap opera with United, but obviously most recent years United have been insignificant when it comes to the league.

It's no wonder why image rights for players are always a very important sticking point with potential United transfers, especially those of higher caliber (i.e. Dybala, Sanchez, Pogba, etc.). These are global names in football and United are highly relevant and valuable year-round.

Spurs may end up with a pretty fantastic first XI.

Media briefing that the deal is off as a smokescreen? hell, why not? :drool:

Fans who think that commercial success will continue endlessly while we continue to spiral downwards are deluding themselves. We will be in trouble sooner than many think.
Commercial success is not always guaranteed, however the global reach of United and ways they engage with fans on a social and digital level are top class in terms of monetizing.

United can't be midtable year over year and expect to sustain or increase their commercial revenue streams not including stadium (match days, tours, other events), guaranteed TV money, guaranteed performance money. United are a yo-yo Champions League club.

At the very least, United must be in Europe year over year and give themselves that added opportunity to make the next year's Champions League (i.e. Top 4 or winning Europa League).

It looks to me that they aren't really getting anywhere with anyone. No Dybala deal, Coutinho has said no and the Lo Celso bid isn't what Betis want. Could quite easily see them getting no one and Eriksen leaving to Spain post window.

And the Glazers can sell us for $3bn and walk away.

He isn’t posting about our kids though is he? Come on. How many threads do we see about lower league teams in the football forum? People on here care about major leagues and their transfers, I would understand if he posted a few about lower leagues but he has dedicated his time to just that. He’s a WUM and an absolutely shit one at that. Like it stagers me how pathetic someone could be to spend this much of their time and effort doing this for this long. It stopped being amusing after the first few tweets.
If he is a WUM (I agree he probably is), then posts like yours are his oxygen.

You have to admit that his timing is perfect. He threw in 5 or 6 tweets at peak Eriksen mania time yesterday that just cracked me up.

If we don’t bring anyone else in, where’s the motivation to even turn on the telly for the Chelsea game? It will take a modern miracle to scrape a top 4 finish this year.
So true! We should just turn the telly on for the City match on Saturday instead. They are actually winning things and have lots of shiny toys, much better idea than the hassle of supporting United anymore...:rolleyes:

Where are they gonna play them all? Seems a scattergun approach but probably ensures they'll get at least one in.
Haven’t Spurs released Llorente, sold Tripper and signed NDombele. I don’t see how they’ve improved so far. Honestly I think we’ve made much bigger strides forward in this window.

Behave - this thread makes for grim reading. Even is he is on a WUM, its entertaining and is probably entertaining himself safe in the knowledge that he is doing diddly squat wrong yet people are getting their knickers in a twist over it.

They monetized the Fergie generation, but it’s not out of the question to think they are struggling with a new younger generation. A few big sponsorship deals that were signed at our heights are due to expire over the next few years. If we’re wallowing in mediocrity still, I wouldn’t expect we set a new standard with those deals. More likely that they’ll be similar to the other teams around us.
