Hell of a day for football and the craziest finish perhaps ever. One of those instances where it's such an unbelievable turn of events you can't even be mad but just laugh at what you just saw, and as an MUFC fan take your hat off at MCFC's season as they were deserved winners.
How sad is it that after what we witnessed today and the huge achievement MCFC just accomplished with their history, the majority of the posts are blindly anti-MUFC? Speaks for itself regarding the quality of posts when you see that. Although I suppose when another team losing is of greater importance than your own team winning it makes sense, as funny as those priorities are.

What you guys call inflated, logical fans call smart. I still haven't found a source that shows that MUFC was the only team that could have paid £12M for Ronaldo while other teams were rejected, as you guys constantly imply...can you provide one? What is MUFC supposed to do? Turn down the fees offered to them for players or negotiate lower ones? I don't understand the logic here. Do you think whatever team you support would have stopped and said "you know what, fans on the internet will whine about how that price skews net spends, can you offer us less"? They paid for him as any team could have, developed him into a star as any team could have, and profited off it as any team would have. Seems like simple and logical business but apparently not.
If Barca was to sell Messi for the incredible fee that would be required, are they suddenly guilty of being a huge evil team that gets inflated prices? No. They are selling Messi for what another team is willing to pay, therefore it's sound business.

What does that even mean? So all of us North American residents suddenly can't support big clubs because of where we currently live? I guess as a Calgary resident I should just quit having an interest in NFL, MLB, NBA, F1, etc., as there are no teams in those leagues that call Calgary home. Sorry, Jagger, even though you grew up in Liverpool (I think) you can't support them any more because you are a resident of North America. Sound logic.
