United Road Take Me Home

Apolgies to the Mirror for stealing their headline. And apologies to anyone who occasionally stops by on the off chance that I might have got round to actually updating this thing. Naturally, United being United, the red universe looks very different from how it did when I last posted in December. For one thing, it's not red anymore, it'd green and gold (or as I was told by a colleague this morning, 'Don't romanticise! It's yellow!').

This comment came from someone who knows so little about football that a few weeks ago I had to explain which team Eric Cantona played for to contextualise 'Looking for Eric' for her. Now, the post-bond issue furore is being discussed on Radio 4, in no small part thanks to the picture above.

Naturally Becks distanced himself from any insurrectionary motives, but the lad is such a canny manipulator of the media that he can't not have known that image would adorn the front pages today. Even if he was just shrewdly swiping the headlines from under Wayne's nose, it can't not help prove something of a catalyst in the bid to erase the Glazer's from the history of our club.
