In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) look forward to a new life under Ruben Amorim. What system will we be playing? What players will impress? and how will it all go? We also say goodbye to Ruud Van Nistelrooy and review United's 3-0 win at home against Leicester City.

Feck hope it ends up being nothing
Holy shit. Hopefully it's just a case of better safe than sorry, don't want to think about the ramifications if it's an actual bomb.
Sounds like I'll get an early night instead then. If it does turn out to be a legit threat, credit to the security
It's for the best. City winning anyway so not like our game matters.
Safety comes first.

It's what the FS1 commentator recently stated (FS1 is the US broadcast).
Well done to the staff at OT, could have saved lives
They shall only get the points if it goes into the record books that we had more possession! // LVG
You'd think they would empty the stadium if so.
Honestly glad they abandoned the game. Would be ridiculous to go ahead if there is any doubt whatsoever about security. I wonder when it'll be rescheduled. I hope it won't be mid-week right before the FA Cup final.
poor Andy_Cole made a sign and everything.
100% the right thing to do, something was found, they could not do anything else.
Worst post of the season, well done you
Hope everything is alright. If City do win today, I guess it'll be a chance for Van Gaal to put out a young side against Bournemouth, meaning we can rest players for the cup final.
Surely they would have evacuated everyone? There's still people in some of the stands!
It's true. They basically went from the tip of the South of England to near North of England.
yeah. Fantastic that all the systems and processes managed to detect it before it could cause any carnage.
Absolutely the right decision to take. And saves me from 90 mins of mindless boring football - will find something more interesting to do like mow the lawn!
Stop spinning this into a joke for FFS. I don't see what's so funny here.
I hope everything's ok and it's just precaution. It's just football, safety comes first
Disappointing for us, but absolutely the right decision. Just hope we have something to play for when it get's rescheduled.
What was the 'suspect package'? LVG's renewed contract?
On a serious note, always better to be safe than sorry. Very impressive organisation from the security staff.

fA should have really delayed the city game and then postponed there's...'but this is the FA after all
Well we could still finish in the top 5...
OMG! We should have risked lives for the sake of a sporting occasion!!
Surely tomorrow ? And it likely won't mean anything by then and we can play a youth team.
I think we deserve 6 points after all that 
This is bullshit. The fans outside were informed long before the announcement in question over the PA.
What about all the City fans who travelled to Swansea today?
I suppose this is a good thing in the long run.
Football matches are soft targets for terrorists. But abandoning a game at the biggest club stadium in the country, on the last day of the season, for a vital match is proof that the authorities won't take risks because of outside pressures. Hopefully this will mean that would-be bombers won't bother with football again.

Surprised John Cross hasn't been on Twitter blaming the club.
Shambles... in the sense of things not working out for us. Calm down.
I knew I shouldn't have worn tight shorts to today's game...
Get a grip you arsehole.
Glad the evacuation took place, better to be safe than sorry.
Still not sure why the South Stand aren't allowed to leave ?!

Scary stuff. Hope it's a false alarm.

No they shouldn't. City fans have travelled around the way down there. It's a shame it has to end the season this way, but we shouldn't disrupt more than one game.
That's just daft. Cancelling a game on 30,000 travelling people because it's potentially unfair on the team? Come on.
