What are you talking about? Who’ve I backed that’s got your knickers in a twist? Probably someone who’s not walked their contract down and got their bother the slag the club off on a regular basis via social media?
We pride ourselves on good players from the academy getting a send off they deserve. Not weasels who’ve stolen a living for years and blamed everyone at the club and even gone to the extent of calling his manager a liar.
The PL is littered with youth players from United, should they all get a standing ovation when they come to OT?
The thing about respect is it works both ways. If you want to launch a brand on the Eve of the Derby, pose on social media in other teams colours while your employer is getting hammered, or leak random stories to the press, it really shouldn’t come as much of a surprise when they tell you you’re free to leave out of the back door. Regardless of how many years you’ve bothered to show up for.
