Remembering Terry Hall on his birthday. #2ToneDublin 🖤🏁

Agree?

Is that a real question?

The message from the @premierleague couldn’t be clearer. If we think you’re an important part of our brand, we’ll only pretend to punish you. But if you’re Everton or Forest, guilty of a much lesser rules breach, we will try to relegate you. Transparent and indefensible

What a picture. 😍

Got to admit I’m starting to really like Jimmy Carr 😂🤣👏👌 Listen Jimmy’s new Muslim joke.

And that is exactly what he did. Some board members were advocating shutting the club down entirely. Murphy wouldn't hear of it. He persuaded a reluctant Bill Foulkes, still raw with grief, to take on the captaincy when Foulkes felt he simply wasn't up to it. Murphy's son later said of his father in those weeks: "There were football matches to be played and that's what he'd do, he'd just get on with the bloody job." Within a fortnight of the disaster, United fulfilled an FA Cup fixture against Sheffield Wednesday, winning 3-0 on a wave of emotion at Old Trafford with a patched-up team. Murphy then steered them to Wembley beating Fulham 5-3 in a replay, with Alex Dawson scoring a hat-trick before Bolton defeated them 2-0 in the final. That United reached Wembley at all, just three months after Munich, remains one of the most remarkable achievements in English football. Bobby Charlton once recalled finding Murphy alone in a hospital corridor, sobbing his heart out at the loss of so many young players he had adored for their talent and loved like sons. He never showed that grief publicly. He kept it for the corridors, for the quiet moments when nobody was watching. Then he went back to work. What few people realise is what Murphy turned down to stay. Offers came in from Arsenal, Juventus, and the Brazilian national team. He refused them all. He was happy, as he always had been, to work quietly in the background at the club he loved, away from headlines and credit. When Busby recovered and the pair finally rebuilt together, they led United to European Cup glory in 1968, completing an emotional decade-long journey that made them the first English club to conquer the continent. Sir Alex Ferguson said of him: "Telling them what Jimmy did, it's the most important thing you can tell a young player who is representing Manchester United." Murphy died suddenly on 14 November 1989, aged 79. In his honour, United created the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year Award. There is also a Jimmy Murphy Centre at Carrington, where the club's young players are still developed today. And in May 2023, a statue of Jimmy Murphy was unveiled behind the Stretford End at Old Trafford, exactly where he belongs. Busby once said that signing Jimmy Murphy was the best piece of business he ever did, better than any player he ever brought to Old Trafford. Coming from the man who signed Charlton, Best, and Law, that tells you everything 🇾🇪

We have five home games left across March, April and May. Not important in the big scheme of things but hard for fanzines. We have the latest mag and two new RedNews’ across five rather than 9/12 games so supporting the fanzines ‘til end of season is massive help. Cheers Reds. ❤️

🤔

And we lost to these useless cunts in a Final. FFS.

V good footballer but turned out to be a right fanny.

Eu-se-bio And I say Kiddo 🇾🇪

Turned 18 in March 2025. Tickets went from £20 to £50 literally overnight. Now I’m a uni student living in Manchester £50 is my average ticket. +£20 with travel. +£15 with food/drink for the day. £85 for the lot. How am I as an 18 year old student supposed to keep affording to see #NFFC twice a week? How? The lack of a Young Adult Bracket is nothing short of shameful, and will price out many in my situation, and me soon enough. Absolutely breaks my heart to think I’ll have to stop watching Forest in person if nothing changes I’ve done 36 games this season in MARCH! as a STUDENT! and my reward for this loyalty from the club is an outstretched hand asking for another £50 (which will turn into £150 with travel, accommodation and food) to watch a game against Midtjylland (I paid the same to watch the same fixture in October, which was dreadful) in a half empty ground and no atmosphere due to the price. Something needs to be done and sharpish. Good luck NFCT. Hopefully our voices are heard 👌

Some fantastic egg-chasing that 👏 🏉 Go to go boozer now to see couple of mates sat in their fucking checkered skirts.

It’s been way beyond worrying about the ‘masterclass in recruitment’ for ages - there’s been so many examples. All we want is to be shot of the useless, lazy cunt.

Lou Costello was born on this day in 1906. The Naughty Nineties (1945) is peak Abbott & Costello and includes their iconic “Who’s on First”. Performed countless times, this is considered the best filmed version. It plays on a loop at the National Baseball Hall of Fame in New York

Great photo this. Pele on the Brazil team bus leaving Bolton Wanderers training ground preparing for a World Cup game at Everton's Goodison Park back in 1966. The clobber two of the kids are wearing is classic. 👌

That's a fucking joke #cpfc The game has absolutely fucking gone.
