As long as Sir Alex remains the manager i will continue to want them to win.

You could try drying your eyes and supporting a team that wins European cups, just for a night.

You know, since yours, and indeed no London club, never has.

If Sunderland did win trophies you'd be lost and have nothing to complain about. It's probably a good thing.

MH probably supported Sunderland back in the day when they were winning the league titles.

I'm completely undecided. Do I want the team with foreign players, foreign manager, foreign sponsors and foreign owners to win, or do I want Barcelona to win?

I can think of better reasons to decide than wanting a team to win because their stadium is built on the same island I was born on?

(not aimed at you Gaz, cos I know it's a different island, but this was the post that raised "wanting the british team to win")
But if you had no other reason is that not a good enough reason to support United?

No, I don't think so. I've got nothing in common with either team. My best mate is an avid Man Utd supporter and I sort of want them to win for him but want them to lose so I can take the piss. I suppose ultimately, if it's a good game and the better team wins, whoever that is on the night, then I'll be happy.

People tell me there were cup finals in 73 and 74. I'm sure this can't be right...

Rumours abound that Nasri has refused to even negotiate a new contract & handed in a transfer request.

Read the same thing. I cannot blame anybody wanting to leave Arsenal right now as their lack of top signings has been dreadful in recent years

Wenger needs to buy a big name, quickly.

A tester bid from a Lancashire club is in the offing.
