Gonna get shot down for this but have a horrible feeling those c**ts are gonna win tonight . If they did would it make the board think again and get ruthless with the manager. Nothing more embarrassing for us than a trophy at last and a European one at that.
Maybe I am in the minority here, but I dont care which of them win it cos it doesnt make their season better than ours (and ours was for most part shit) - I would usually go along with the argument that it is all about winning trophies, but their league seasons have been such utter dogshit that even a trophy cant mask that. For years we all talked about clubs needing to get to 40pts to avoid relegation, and their league seasons have been so shit that with only 1 league game left each, neither have reached 40pts There is no escaping that fact, and for clubs of their stature, that is beyond embarrassing. I have had victims fans trying to wind me up saying that whichever team wins will have had a better season than us, but I cant agree - mid table and winning europa league then maybe I would agree, but 15th or 16th in a woeful league should be totally unacceptable to them, and that will shine higher than winning the europa league and getting into champs league as a result

You might be right augie, but the fans of whoever wins, will be giving it to us. Trouble is, so will fans of clubs with no involvement.
Doesn't really bother me with Utd, partly because their supporters will largely acknowledge that it doesn't even begin to paper over the cracks, but the scum fans won't give a damn about their league position, or the de-valued nature of the Europa and they will be crowing. Can't bear that idea.
Saw baldy spittingc.unt pre-match interview on Sky just now and noticed that he wasn't doing the spitty thing. It must be a nervous reaction he gets after a match especially if they've dropped points.
At the end of the day, despite their fall from grace United are arguably one of the biggest clubs in the world and definitely the biggest in England!
Winning the elge will mean nothing to their history!
Sperz are one of the most overhyped shit clubs in the world, whose fans would see winning the elge as a defining moment in their history!
Thats why its important that utd win!
And they will 4-0 or 4-1
Question for all those who want manu to win tonight -
If manu winning affects our transfer plans, will you still want them to win tonight ? Was talking to manu lad I know this morning, and he told me that all the talk in mancland is that if they win tonight and are in next seasons champs league, then Viktor Gyokeres will sign for them ahead of us. I said all along that the scum winning tonight will be hard to stomach for us fans cos of the shite we will have to listen to, but as a club, manu winning poses a much bigger threat to us imo - if us and the scum go after the same player to sign him, 99 times out of 100 the player will choose us over the scum, but imo it would be much closer to 50/50 if we were battling manure for a players signiture. I cannot stress enough how I dont want sesko as our striker signing (osimhen still my preferred choice), and while I cant claim to be convinced by Viktor Gyokeres, he would probably be my second choice.

So they are signing Delap, Cunha and Gyokeres? Apart from the fact they haven’t got a pot to piss in, I thought at least two of these players played as lone strikers. How is this going to work? Plus they have a load of dross that no one wants. Surely they can’t sign players without moving some on for huge losses. They’ll be breaching PSR well before they even start trying to fund their new stadium.
i am going with scummy spurs as i think qualification for the champions league for manure would benefit them more. They would have a greater pulling power and we could end up without that striker as he might well go there instead.
I wont watch it but will follow it online , i bet near the start you will get 80,000 singing are you watching Arsenal.
Good point by Augie ,about 40 pts normally needed to stay up.
I can see augie’s point, but there’s just a visceral hatred for that lot up the road and it can overcome logic.
That said, I’ve got a horrible feeling that they’ll win. They ship goals, but they’re also able to score them, while Utd can tend to be toothless. If the scum do win, I’ll try to console myself with the notion that it might pile some pressure on Lego Head from our supporters, but given the state of our fan boys, that’s probably wishful thinking.
In truth, this final is a tough one to call. Just depressing that it’s come to this.
Proper nightmare scenario game for us tonight . The two teams I hate most in this world (Chelsea third and also in a Euro final, such as it is, is also a bit of a kick in the teeth!)
As much as I despise United and see the logic in them losing as having a modest effect on our short term fortunes, I simply can’t stomach the thought of Spurs having their worst ever league season and walking off into the sunset with a European trophy and fluking their way back into the CL.
So am hoping United win but certainly won’t be watching!

My nightmare final is spurs verses liverpool like in the CL a few yrs ago, I hate both with a passion.
Whilst like everyone else I hate both these Cũnts...
If .. IF I have to choose a Winner it would be the one that impacts Us the Least, whether that be financially or in any other way in terms planned signings that we might have in the pipeline.
I had already presumed that Gyekores (sp?) would go to manure because he previous enjoyed a good played / manager relationship with Amorim ... But rumours have been rife that his preference is Arsenal as they have a greater potential to Win the Prem and Other Trophies ....
So whichever team threatens us the least... which I would guess might be Scum, but whether that would have other repercussions in the near future is unclear...
Just hope there's lot's of Needle and some Nasty Injuries; which would benefit us.
??? Like most others although it's Free on Drogon, I won't be watching.
