Oregon_Geordie Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Not his best game, lacks a little bit of pace out wide at times but I love him. Hope he's around the first team for years to come. Solid and gives every drop every week. Great signing! Actually think Schar gets caught more, and I love him too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 https://www.nufc.co.uk/nufc-tv/latest-videos/burn-im-not-planning-on-taking-armband-off/ Hilariously honest interview. Not his best game but playing him gives license to Trippier then I'm all for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Thought he was probably our worst player today, very shaky. But trust Eddie if he thinks he’s the best option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pata Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) Fulham have Mitro and Brentford are really good at set-penises, probably one reason Howe wanted Burn’s height on the pitch. Would expect Targett to start against Antony. Edited October 9, 2022 by Pata Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do get the uproar around the whole ‘United’ issue, and I make a conscious effort to not call them United, but on the flip side I think man United are referred to as United to differentiate between them and Man City, Newcastle is a one club city so Newcastle identifies us, saying Manchester does not identify them. Certainly for me being from the North West, all you hear is it’s either United or City, never a mention of Manchester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theregulars Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 It’s such a non-issue. It’s just what they’re called to differentiate the fact that a big football city has two teams with that name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Does anyone even call us United? Never hear anyone say “good result for United at the weekend”, or “can you believe it, Isak has signed for United!” Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living in Manchester for 30 years I've never heard anyone refer to either as Manchester United or Manchester City. Pull them up on it and they'll stare at you with blank incomprehension. You are totally correct, they are only interested in diferentiating from each other. Newcastle United isn't even on their radar ... might I say pricks.

Never hear anyone say “good result for United at the weekend”, or “can you believe it, Isak has signed for United!” I recently watched MOTD from 1977. Throughout the game the commentator described us ad 'United'. Back then, our fans called us 'United' - just as Manchester and Sheffield described half their clubs as 'United'. Things started to change in the 1980s and United started being used nationally for Manchester United alone. Surely it was because football became increadingly commercial and ManU were/are the epitome of that. It helped that SheffU slumped after 1976 and NUFC after 1977. Whatever the reason, it caught on like the plague and sadly the United tag has been hijacked by a singular club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone made a good point that it's probably just habit to differentiate the two Manchester clubs. Either way I don't see it as a big deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Apopros of nothing, I recall Alf-Inge Haaland's quote - "There's only one Manchester and there's only one United, and I've played for them both.". Class, that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 (edited) I wonder if its more of a sky era thing ? Growing up in the 70s it was always "Man U" or "Man City". Edited October 11, 2022 by madras Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 We used to sing “United” regularly at games. Pretty sure I also had a white “silk” scarf with just United on it. Worn tied to my wrist and not with my Smoking Jacket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You didn't have tha national media calling anyone United and just expecting everyone to know who it was. Jimmy Hill never said " First up Coventry playing host to Arsenal followed by United at Burnley" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
