I watched until some American tried to take the ball hostage and then got a telling off from some redneck in a Utd shirt. All got too much for me at that point. Football late at night, and in the US is not for me.
The modern footballer, especially foreign, has no clue or care about our history. They weren’t even born when we won Stuff.
It’s all about money, and selling them our ambition. It’s not hard to see why we miss out to other teams.
They had less distance to fall from though. Only been a top flight club again since early 2000s and been relegated in that stint. Im agreeing with you by the way, just think our stock was already pretty low.
