My first inclination was to gloat about how I had predicted this result in the match preview. Then I took a look at the standings, noted that we’re top of the table and West Brom… well… aren’t, and I realized that it probably wasn’t exactly the Nostradamus-esque moment I had initially thought it to be.

KO – 19:45 GMT (2:45 PM EST)
I can’t decide how I feel about the current rate of United fixtures. On the one hand, I love that we apparently have a game every 43 seconds, but on the other, half our squad may be dead by April. It’s a [...]

Dears Spurs,
Thank you for Dimitar Berbatov. You’re welcome for Frazier Campbell and the opportunity to pay off some of Darren Bent’s awesome contract… that £16.5 million figure must look quite nice while you watch him nod sure-thing goals over the bar.
Sincerely,

Two tidbits I wanted to pass on regarding the FA Cup match this weekend between United and Tottenham. Despite vehement protests, the FA has refused to take any action against Spurs manager Harry Redknapp for his declaration that he would, “go to Old Trafford with the weakest team I can possibly find.” The Fiver chimed [...]

I know this isn’t really Manchester United business (in fact, it isn’t at all), but in reading articles regarding Citeh’s latest move for former Hamburg midfield Nigel de Jong, I was forced to write something. It has been reported today that de Jong’s contract had a buy out clause which could have been activated in [...]

A good day today for United. An exciting if not very solid win against Derby County in the Carling Cup Semi-Final sees us through to the Final to face either Spurs or Burnley, probably Spurs.
Aside from the usual stuff, turns out that Sir Alex was today voted the best manager of the last 12 years. [...]

Points to Ponder
Rio Ferdinand may be 1) dead or 2) suffering from hypothermia. Our defensive stalwart remains sidelined with injury and, after taking in his brother’s performance at a frozen Stadium of Light, may indeed have frozen [...]

I was just checking the United website, and came across this bit of rampant speculation… err… newsworthy reporting from the Manchester Evening News. It appears that newly imported Serbian attacker Zoran Tosic may make his first team debut tomorrow night against Derby.

Sorry for my ridiculous absence on here lately. The guys here at the The Offside know the reason and have been great guys, seriously. But I thought the fitting time for me to return to the Man Utd blog was now.
After a fairly poor (okay, terrible) first half performance against Bolton from the boys [...]

Despite the crushing news of Manucho’s loan, reports from Spain are providing me the opportunity to continue living. Soccernet.com is reporting that King Franco FC President Ramon “I’m A Colossal Failure” Calderon has resigned from his post as President of the Madrid based club.
