There's only one United

Touch the ball, Phil. You'll never make as big a fool of yourself in your life.

Nice timing - no doubt plenty of "old" shirts were sold over Christmas.

Virgin Money bought Northern Rock from the taxpayer.

I think you're a Manure supporter? So eat shit. Because that's what they were today.

Wild hypothesis.

I hear offers are being sought for the following: Ba, Cabaye, Tiote and Collocini. This is on the basis that the 10 points or so needed for another season in the premier league are achievable without them.

I don't hear that although I follow these things rather closely.

A hostile offer from Manure for Tiote is anticipated and, as I alluded to upthread, might be accepted by the FCB if the FCB wants to piss off all Toon supporters even more than he already has.

There's been speculation that the Pool are interested in Collo, but I'd be surprised if he agreed.

After today's debacle, (see above post) I'd think your lot would be thinking about that too.

Oh, and Toon only need 7 more points. Thanks for being shit.

Picked up a beautiful 1983-84 Spurs replica shirt for £24 at JD Sports in Gatwick earlier this week.

Also the home shirt although the kit this season is pretty drab. We have fancy new Under Armour shirts next season to sport when we are back in the Champions League.

If they add a top class winger and striker to the squad I think Spurs really could push all way.

United have a poor central midfield and Citeh are about to lose the Toure brothers to the African Nations Cup.

Someone from COYS forum is sending me a Spurs programme from the last game. Nice one on the shirt. I quite like this season's kit but would love to go back to the Adidas or the Pony one from ten or so years ago.

I have a great adidas holsten shirt in my collection from 2000. A little warn from 5 aside games.

The pride of my collection is a yellow and blue Pony shirt with "Ginola" and "14" on the back from 1997!

Back on topic, I've just been reading a blog in which this magnificent sentence appears, "Will somebody take the Virgin sign off our shirts, because last night we f***ed Man U."

I wish I'd written that.

Annoyingly from a Newcastle and Fantasy Football perspective Demba Ba is now away at the African Nations Cup!

As is Chiek Tiote. Knowing our luck, they'll come back crippled. Oh well.

BTW Newcastle plays Blackburn on Saturday in the Cup. The two titans who have conquered Manure in the last fortnight head to head. Oh my.
