    If we're in it, I hope we win it. Plenty of players at plenty of the foreign clubs take the Europa seriously enough, especially those who want to climb the career ladder.

    I really hope none of our fans think it's beneath us - a small gathering of folk on the 14th of April of 2016 certainly looked up for it -

    absolutely no one to blame but ourselves.

    Totally agree with Miller. Our disgusting home record has all lead to this. Scraping the barrel wanting other sides to do us a favour.
    It's embarrassing and no bollox about injuries or VAR changes it.

    If that tonight doesn't drive us on next season nothing will.
    It could very possibly be a blessing that Jurgen won't never forget.

    I would rather gain entry into a CL season by finishing in the top 4, not by winning a competition I have no interest in. If other people think differently that's fine.

    I'd like for us to win the Europa League too if we're in it. Despite winning the champions league and falling short of winning the league by a single point in 2019 I don't think we have a strong enough squad to go all out for the league and Europe

    What tonight Ian? Solksjaer having 5 games in 10 games so having to play his second string? It's well known I absolutely loathe the filthy, largely because of the preferential treatment they get and have been given since the 90's and then even moreso after my own experience with Mancs, but to be fair, he actually looked gutted to have lost tonight and under the circumstances, he couldn't have fielded another side, he actually included Bailly, who will have to play against us and that surprised me to be honest.

    I think as a club we are too soft, I guess when you're in the middle of a situation like the one that happened at OT to prevent your game being played, it's all a bit surreal, you seem to be waiting around for ages, then you're probably rushed for a decision.

    Had any member of our staff had the thought that Covid protocols had obviously been breached and rather than agreeing to a postponement, made the filthy pull the game for those reasons, they absolutely would have had to forfeit the game, I think because it was very apparent they had to postpone the game for those reasons anyway that they should have been made to, but that's us as a club too much of the time, a soft touch and another good example of the preferential treatment they receive, had our fans caused the game to be abandoned for the same reasons, you can guarantee we'd have been made to forfeit it

    Seems a few of the rags aren't at all happy about last night's shenanigans either Ian

    Still, no better time for Jurgen to raise the lads to their first win at Old Toilet under him

    Harvey Elliott will surely be in the squad having returned from his highly successful loan spell you'd think, Edit: sack that he can't play I've just discovered
