Fans Singing Ole Songs

What’s Cole got to do with it?
I suppose you think Rashford is better than Dennis Law and Bruno is better than Robson.
Maybe because he scored less (even had a worse goal per 90 ratio), won less and moved on to play for 8 other clubs after he played for us. He still gets love here though.

So much sentiment here, and people wonder why Ole was manager for so long. He was given a role he was never qualified for and allowed to stay for longer than he should have.
It was sentiment that got him the job in the first place.
There are umpteen examples from years of posting of you being a WUM and if you aren’t then you are severely uneducated.
One of those clubs was City too
What is even passion for sport without sentiment?
It did go on a bit though. The whole game was soundtracked by the Ole songs, when it was our new manager's second game in charge. A bit wierd.
Seems like a complete non starter in terms of trying to find an issue or grievance.
He was sang about before he became manager, during his management, and it'll continue now his tenure has ended. There isn't really a story there.

I answer all the points but just at different times depending on what is said. All it is is people coming from different angles and then using my other points to answer different questions.
I was very clear. I said depending on age Ole might be consider more of a legend or a legend to some and not others.
Yes I based this statement on sentiment and feeling ( yes everyone is different) but supporting United and witnessing late 80’s to 99 right there and then is different to supporting United through the 90’s.
Someone younger mentioning what Ole meant to him at the time as a 6 year old was just odd to me as there isn’t much a 6 year old takes in at that age. Hence why I was very aware of 93 but it’s more of what I’ve looked back and seen than what I witnessed live as I was 6…
My intelligence wasn’t the same and I assume his wasn’t.
He had a worse goal per 90 ratio because he played longer minutes in the game. What happens when your the actually first team striker.
Great list he sits nowhere near them man.
As I said his ratio is so high because he would of accumulated less minutes.
Angry? Imagine a United fan getting angry at chants for a legend.
I think when fans chant at stadiums, its to generate atmosphere, not tele. This is very much a recent thing, where everything is for tele, insta etc...
Also, Ole is and will always be a legend, just ask Liverpool fans about Origi. His name will forever be sung at Anfield too because they achieve cult hero status.
Finally, the likes of Greenwood and recent players need to earn the right for chants. Bruno came in and earnt his name being sung around.
Kind of agree with this. Didnt make me angry, but yeah singing his name so emphatically so shortly after he was sacked for having us 10th in the league and playing like shite and practically wasting 3 years is a bit weird.
I cannot see the Oles at the wheel chant making an appearance again after it was mocked by seemingly every club in the country when he was losing games left, right and centre. That’s the chant I associate with Solskjaer the Manager.
Huge chunk of our online fanbase are absolute twats.
Don't think they would ever Be happy.
I mean I’m pretty sure the loudest chant was the donny van de break chant to be honest
RvP was maybe a better footballer but that does not mean his contribution to the club was greater.
Almost as if Ole was at the club longer, played more game and scored more goals, isn't it? Although Andy Cole does still get his name sung from time to time & was serenaded by the away end at QPR in pre-season.
As for that other ridiculous post being quoted on this page by @sonjacross493. Firstly, nobody in the ground sings for the TV, what a ridiculous insinuation, frankly I don't give a feck about the TV, we'll just make as much noise as possible for 90 minutes and there were several players past & present who got more airtime than Ole yesterday. Second, yes, Greenwood does have a song and has done for about 3 years now, pay more attention. Third, if you want to change what people inside the stadium sing then get your arse inside the stadium & sing rather than sitting in your bedroom crying about it.
If they were singing his songs of him as a player that's very good as it has been sung before too. If it is Ole is at the wheel then it is terrible as we have a new manager.
Ole is a massive legend , always conducted himself in the right way but most of all ingrained in the most magical moment this club has ever known.
After winning the league in 99 the FA Cup was pretty straightforward then the excitement and nerves in the days running up to the Nou Camp was like nothing else. The whole week running up to the match was brilliant knowing that the Treble was on then the match itself came and for the most part we were totally outplayed and it looked like it was going proper pear shaped , but then in added time Teddy scuffs one in to reignite the dream and you start to believe we can win this in extra time , then Ole sticks out a leg ..........
Legend.

Would you care to list those other strikers who contributed more to the club than Ole but aren't as loved?
Its because people love the song. Its catchy and easy to sing so people will keep at it. If you ask why they will tell you all about Ole and the reason why he is a hero etc but the real reason is that its stuck in their heads and easy to sing when drunk
He wears a bastards hat, when he saw Old Trafford he said I'm spoiling that
He didn't stay at Molde, or Cardiff 'cos they're shite - he came to Man Utd purely out of spite.
Ooooohhhhhh
Yeah cos United fans have a reputation for always only singing the easiest songs to sing.
CHELSEA CHELSEA CHELSEA CHELSEA
Godamm right that's what you mean.
This is one of the worst takes I've read in a long time.
Who's. That. Twat from Argentina.....
Wow! What a sad little man you are.
What a load of crap!
What serious damage?
I know you're an Ole-hater but, come on, he turned this club round after the poisonous era of Mourinho and left Rangnick with a much improved squad.
Lampard was in no way better than Ole, just stop.
Why would Ole resign? He still believed he could help United. Think the names you've called yourself are apt.
You Mou lovers are a funny lot.
