A memorable excuse from Ole...
The confusing red seats at Old Trafford are the reason Manchester United's away form is better than their home form, according to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
"You will see a change now," said Solskjaer.
"The banners around the club are not red any more. Some of the players have mentioned that when you have to make a split-second decision to find a team-mate, the red shirt on a red background with the red seats.
"We have tried to change that, and along with the anti-racism campaign [black Kick it Out banners], there shouldn’t be any reason.
Shalom
DGH, Bruno, Greenwood and Cavani start, to cruise them into another European Semi-Final.
^ should be a stroll for Utd, Arse is a different matter. I expect to go 2 down, then down to 10 men and heroically get a goal back, dangling the carrot of a come back but alas they'll concede 3 goals in the final five minutes. Such is life.
OLEgend's red-shirted heroes ensure another Europeam semi final date (our 18th as a club, I believe). The United connection with Roma will be there and it won't be easy, of course, but if we play to our ability and take our chances, we'll win.
What a team! What a club! What a manager!

Silverware for Solskjaer?
We all know United's track record with semis.

Given that they've won the European Cup twice in the last 22 years, plus losing one other EC final to possibly the best club team ever, not too bad....
Greenwood does a Gazza '96.
(no, not the goal against Scotland)
9.30 pm tonight - Utds struggles are over
^ i'd still rather support Accrington Stanley than wear that shitty top and be a plastic Lulu
I didn't mean a plastic Lulu that would just be weird.
Still if Utd join a new European Super League then get used to being consistently second tier, of course Hal will be on to suggest that under King Ole the 1st Utd will reign for a decade or more but then again we love Hal's optimism.
Barcelona 2008-2010 with the third.
3-1
6 wins in a row and 10 points clear of 3rd. :-)
Woodward stepped down and gone by the end of the year.
But will the leech stop sucking the blood?
Is there a Euro 2020.... 2021 thread?
There's a UEFA stipulation that stadiums are filled to 25% of capacity, and looks like the Irish are gonna have to pull out of hosting some of the games saying June is too soon. Many of Europe's elite players are considering boycotting the finals, I'd imagine.
