I'm pretty sure it wasn't her.  I've never really had any problem with her when she has covered our games.

Most of the match thread were pretty sure it was her.

BBC headline for our match is "Soucek denied by VAR". Media is part of the VAR problem, they want the controversy and clicks. Headline shouldn't even mention VAR, and, if it does, that it was used correctly, not that it "denied" someone or a team.

Headline should have been "Villa denied by VAR", seeing as we were the only ones to have an incorrect VAR decision go against us.

Saw bits of a shoddy programme with the Sky clearings in the woods called Fan Debate.

Was about 20 fans in the studio and they mainly supported just 6 clubs, I think one Everton fan sneaked in but that was it. Tells you what Sky thinks of English football

I'm not a Danny Murphy hater like most. But it was funny when he was trying to debate Southgate being perfect for Man U. "He could change the culture, get them working harder, make a happy enviroment again". 

"'So he's that good would you have him at Liverpool after Klopp Danny".

"Errr, well, we already have the culture installed and the system is already there, so no we wouldn't need him, blah blah". 😂

The most mental set of fans ever. They think they're a part of the football club.

What’s interesting about this is that he’s sort of right. Or more bluntly, United’s ongoing decline means the type of manager they can attract is such lower quality than it would have been 10 years ago. We’re talking about the southgates and potters of the world rather than the alonsos, nagelsmanns, xavis etc

Jeff Stelling has now had a pop at Ben White. This is the man who thought Gary Rowett was a better option than Marco Silva and Tony Pulis could do a better job than Louis Van Gaal at United

A football bigot

Like players managers go where they get the most money. United can get any manager they want because they are the biggest club in the world, will pay handsomely and will have a very good transfer budget.

If that’s right for why are they only linked with managers who are not categorically the best in the world?
