Man U is not a term United fans refer to themselves as. The term is only used by other supporters as a complete and utter insult to our club. The 'u' is meant to be 'you' by the rival fans.

An early example of its usage is this chant by West Brom fans: 'Duncan Edwards is manure,rotting in his grave,man you are manure- rotting in your grave'. The origin of 'Man u' is a song to insult the dead Duncan Edwards.

Liverpool and Leeds fans copied this with their own man you /u versions to insult all of the lads who died at munich.

'Man U Man U went on a plane Man U Man U never came back again'

and..

'Man U Never Intended Coming Home' (if you combine the first letter of each word you get the word 'munich').

I hope this makes it clearer that saying man u is an insult,particularly to the older supporters. For those who know this and still use it,its just utter shameful.

I believe United has earned the respect,lets give the fans and the team some respect.



Spread the word.



Time invested in improving ourselves cuts down on time wasted in disapproving of others

Kama ni research,my brother ulifanya.

The real measure of wealth is how much you'd be worth if you lost all your money.

@ Elephant,right you are.
Whenever I refer to Man Utd that is how I put it,I mentioned this in the heat of battle during the season but no one paid attention.
I hope this will get people to do the right thing.

Thinking is free...............so THINK!!

This is why I love sk,guys here are from all corners and for that reason know their ish to the bone. As a Man Utd/red devils fan I feel ashamed today by this new found knowledge - thanks @Elephant & Albertross

That aside,that goal by Macheda was orgasmic to say the least,as Benayoun's must have been to Liverfools. This is what futa is made of,I think this is how chics feel towards the last season of their favourite mexican soap and they have no clue whether Ignacio will die or not,enyewe hata mimi sasa nime elewa. Glory Man United

I just enjoy how nowadays you sweat your bottoms all the way to May without not being certain of bagging the premiership. Days when you used to win it in January are long gone,and shall never come back.
