Exactly as I see it. United are like family. I can complain about 
them because they are my family. If some outsider makes negative 
comments then I'll jump to their defence. It's how families work.

Well said Terry. I was gutted after that Maine Rd performance. 
Luckily it looks like the players also felt that way and have given 
us 2 great results against the Scouse and the Arse since. 

I count myself as a United supporter for life. If we get relegated I 
won't be going anywhere. But I won't for one minute be happy about 
it. I won't be sitting back saying "we had out time in the sun". I 
get the impression some people on this list wouldn't sanction 
criticism no matter how bad the team got. 

Anyway, heres to another top performance and 3 points against the 
spaniards. 

Regards,

Andrew (IL Red - ex Sydney Red)
