Got any suggestions on how we can improve and grow as a community? Let us know!

Basic rules:

  1. Fuck the Glazers
  2. Be civil to each other
  3. No non-Manchester United/football content (non-United content is allowed if it affects United in some way. Will look at starting a Weekly Discussion thread for this)
  4. Fuck the Glazers
  5. Posting news from other social media sites is allowed, but stick to reliable sources (may implement a tier system in future)
  6. Keep it legal - no streams please :)
  7. Have fun!
  8. Fuck the Glazers

Welcome to any and all Manchester United fans. I couldn't find a United community on here so figured I'd start one myself.

I'm quite open to suggestions as to how fans would like this community to be. My goal here is to make this a welcoming place for all fans to discuss and share news about our club. I've chucked some basic rules in the sidebar which will be developed as the community grows.

Feel free to start posting, GGMU!

Gunner here visiting, nice first rule you've got there :) And fourth, and eighth

It's definitely an important part of being a United fan!

Let's hope you keep it going if Qatar takes over... As much as I dislike your lot, you're a damn sight better than the oily bastards.

I'll be gutted if Qatar end up taking over, I have hope they won't but I'm not optimistic

Word was that they're probably just gonna buy another club if they don't, so the fate of the sport might be doomed soon anyway... making me wish my local league was actually accessible (Hong Kong, we're not even on Fotmob/onefootball lol)

Ah yeah that sucks! I'm a season ticket holder for my local team in Wales. The Welsh Premier league does get shown on TV a bit but it's not a great experience!

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's only made worse by the fact that I'm studying abroad most of the year now and my team is in the second division in Hong Kong (South China AA, we used to be one of the biggest teams in Hong Kong but self-relegated due to financial issues, you may have heard of us due to the Premier League Asia trophy) which has even less coverage. Our rivals Kitchee are doing better than ever as well, which feels ever-so-bittersweet.

Ah yeah, we (Barry Town United) just got promoted back to the Premier - no games in the leagues below ever get broadcast. Fortunately we are at least on Flashscores, and we have a Cymru Football app so I was at least able to keep up to date with what was going on

[–] Astrealix@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The only ways I can keep up are either the HKFA website, or Transfermarkt. I haven't been able to find any other way, and I've not found any streaming of the second tier (the first tier is on pay-per-view for a fairly pro-China news network...)

It's Qatar or a Petrochemical firm so I think we're gonna turn oily either way 😔

Glazers: well if you say that, guess we'll not sell
