Who cares about that?
Well, people love to hate us.
Yeah I'm not fussed either, was just saying. I'm all for Mourinho.
Good. It was ace when everyone hated us. It was because we were constantly a threat. Now we're the most inoffensive club in the league. We're practically Roy Hodgson's Fulham.
Good. Bring on the ABUs.
I think LVG is on gardening leave as well. He'll probably play Geranium at right back on Monday.
We've been THE villain for decades, it's nothing new. Look at the salivating over our downfall.
They're all hoping the death star isn't going to be rebuilt.
Just read some tweets saying that today's comments we a joke on Bedy Morattis part. Plus apparently Chelsea have started to rebuild bridges with Mourinho with a view to him eventually returning.
More chance of Rooney scoring sixteen hat tricks in fifteen minutes.
What makes it so unlikely, in your opinion? Bruce Buck has also said he's always welcome there.
No. They said he'd be welcomed back. Doesn't mean he'd go back as manager.
There's a rumour Moratti's sister said Mourinho is coming to Manchester.
The most exciting part about Mourinho is that I can see him put an end to the Guardiola wankfest that's been going around.
One of the most successful managers of the last 15 years who has actually won our league 3 times, or a guy with 4 games on his CV? Only we could even consider that a choice let alone ponder the outcome.
Mourinho is the lesser copy of Fergie, but as close to him as you can get now. Winning at all costs.
Anyone who thinks that Giggs can take over one of the biggest clubs in the world with one year of apprentiship under the tutelidge of one of the most outdated and backwards thinking managers in the modern game really needs their fecking head tested.
Forget about Giggs. Maybe in a few years time after he's gone away and managed a few clubs, he can come back and give it a go, but not before.
I will take Steve Bruce, Ole Solskaer, Mark Hughes, Rene Mulenstene, Gary Neville...hell.. even Steve McClaren above Giggs at the moment.

Mourinho is nothing like Fergie other than being stubborn to the n'th degree. Fergie loved taking a risk or two more than he ought to. Mourinho is quite conservative in everything from his transfers to his style of play, he hates the unknown.
Stubborn, arrogant, patriarchal, likes to hold grudges, determined to win, universally hated/respected.
The methods are different, but in temperament and character there are a lot of similarities.
Oh, for God's sake. This is beyond tedious. We fanny while others seem to just do their business.
The main reason I don't believe in the Giggs to manage us feeds is the simple fact we could have/could still put him in charge now or any time we'd like, yet we haven't. Whereas it appears Mourinho is waiting until the summer to come in for a fresh start and... surprise, surprise it looks as if we're waiting on making a final decision to.
This guy.
I admitted to Fergie's stubbornness but lets see:
1. Arrogance, determination to win and success can be attributed to any top level manager, player or professional. Pep has it, Jose has it, Van Gaal has it, Wenger has it and hell even Big Sam has his own brand of arrogance.
2. Fergie if not loved, was universally respected by top level players, clubs and football people, Mourinho on the other side would be thrown in the sewer in places like Barcelona. People at Bayern think of him as a buffoon in expensive clothes.
3. Mourinho might seem he is patriarchal but every team except Inter had tuned him out sooner than later, he lacks the charisma or ability to captivate a club or a group of players for the 25+ years the way Fergie was able to do. Mourinho by nature is a curlish person with his own inferiority complex that wakes up everyday holding everyone but himself to contempt. People like him cannot succeed the way Ferguson does in the longer term. He is a great short term solution if he's not been tactically solved yet.
Just got caught up on all this stuff. I assume it is true? See no reason as to why it wouldn't be anyway. Would still like to get rid of LVG now but I guess if we have to wait until the summer for Mourinho then I could handle it. Could be a negative for the players though. They'll go even further in not playing for the manager and our league position will keep sliding.
You have to be good to make longevity works
Moyes would stay here till his last breath but it wont mean much if he won nothing

I don't think so. If Jose is coming in the summer, it would behoove the club to announce it early as it would give the current players something to look forward to for next season knowing if they get CL place Jose will be their manager.

Inter My Nan
That's the name of my Ultimate Team on FIFA.
I wake up seeing that disgusting article in the Mirror and am totally depressed. I hope it's made up shit. But if a Giggs supporter is leaking this shit, I despair. Most worrying is the bit at the end of the article saying Ryan would need assurances if he were to go into a third stint as ass manager - are you fecking kidding me?
Are we just going to shove him on to every new manager's staff? How stupid is that? Is that what the hold up is about? I doubt Jose or anyone else will put up with that kind of shit. What are Giggs' supporters afraid of? Send him out to do his thing and prove himself. Why can't he leave the club? Is he so much of a coward? Or does he and his supporters know deep down that he's totally unsuitable and only through political means can they get him the job?
Finally, where are the fecking Glazers?! It's their club - make a decision and send Ryan on his way if he's stopping us from progressing. I swear the fans need to let the club know exactly what they think of this because Ryan doesn't seem to get how many fans are opposed to him getting the job at this point in time.

Went to sleep thinking Mourinho was all but done and now wake up to a nightmare that Giggs might get the job!!!!!!!
If Giggs is appointed then I'm done..

Just unthinkable. Giggs has been part of both the Moyes and LVG disasters and yet somehow this qualifies him for the job, it should get him the sack not a bloody promotion. How there is any support for this at the club is just beyond me. If it happens I would imagine a huge reduction in season tickets being renewed.
Hopefully its bollocks but my gut feeling says this is exactly what our club would do.
