Great win for us. ManU got a footballing lesson and they looked like a collection of directionless individuals. The rot really has set in.
Chant of the afternoon, "David Moyes we want you to stay, David........."
The ManU fans were holding a long banner which we couldn't make out, it was just above the pitch. Was it a protest?

You weren't at the game then?
That is an incredibly blinkered view, to say the least. For a home game your team looked fairly poor, if we had our two best players on I think we'd have done some damage to you. We'd have probably still conceded but could have won or at least got a draw.
Yes I was and we did that with hardly putting a foot in the gas pedal. You were lively in the first twenty minutes and were very easily contained after that it was just easy. There was nothing poor with our performance and we could have had more in the second half if we had wanted to. Your performance was poor because of errors and lack of conviction;
United looked to have conceded the game after the first goal, it was a spineless performance which is indicative of what is going on with the team at present. So you put it down to missing two strikers but funny how we win quite often with ours scoring or doing very much. You have a big squad and other strikers so using injury as an excuse is just lame for a club of your stature.
You need to stop clutching at straws. Your defence needs an overhaul, you need some creativity in midfield and come the summer maybe one or two strikers as I can see both of them leaving. Moyes had better sort out his tactics or he’ll be off as well. The immediate problem you have is one of a general malaise and it is one which requires good management. There is still time to sort that out but time is running out fast.
If Moyes asks for help I'm ready to come and offer more advice.
I’m surprised that you can’t work that out. It’s simple really. I go to games, watch on tv, read the press and so am a pundit. This makes me qualified to have an insight just like any other football fan.
I’ve been a fan since way before the Abramovich era. How far back does your
Man U support go?
I didn’t post much in the forums for a number of years and then lurked in here before finally coming in.
