There seem to be FC freaking United thread fecking everywhere you turn, especially in the MANCHESTER United forum area.

Any possibility these things could be moved as a matter of course to the Football Forum, since they are not threads about Manchester United, or more preferably to the "Stop Smoking Crack, Kiddies, Drugs Are Bad For You" forum?

Shutup. You have no idea do ya...

You're right.

I have no idea how anybody could seriously talk about that silly idealistic crap, which is actually a betrayal of Manchester United, the team that presumably you actually support.

Mercifully, others seem to have recovered from the 'Shroom Festival, and the posts have largely disappeared.
 
There will be a big betrayal of Manchester United if this yank takes over.

I for one will not step foot into the ground again. And will start following this new team, who will have "football club" on their badge and have already got a ground to play on.
 
We have been owned by idiots before so why run away and quit now even if Glazer gets control?

jasonrh - you seem a whole lot brighter cat than to play the "Bigger Red Than You" card on this topic. No one is less of a Red than another if they get behind FC United. To bring up lack of support or faith is utter bullshit. It's hardly abandoning the club we love. It's loving it enough to know that if Glazer buys it...we'ld be doing it, and the memory of anyone associated to it in it's storied history, a disservice by supporting him in ANY way. He, and his weasly bastard sons, are the antithesis of everything the club and its supporters have ever stood for.

How more people wouldn't be willing to walk away from the PLC until the cnut pops his clogs and falls the feck away...I just don't understand. United is the supporters. Where the hearts and minds of the supporters go, the legacy of the club will come with them.

As stated quite eloquently by someone else, someplace else:

"This is my grandfather's axe
My father replaced the handle
I replaced the blade
This is my grandfather's axe"

FC United could be the single biggest threat to Glazer and his moneymen yet. It's a way to continue the fight, not a way to desert it.
 
But why does that matter?

Its our club and to me setting up another club is giving in to the cnut (assuming it all happens). If he buys us I don't think that it is the end. He can be driven out by a concerted campaign against him and the sponsors who support him. Unless all of those on the ground with sufficient passion desert the cause.

Of course the two aren't mutually exclusive but it would be hard to keep up the fight if there was a new club.
