Football Thread |OT13| This title has been fixed

To be fair, TC (he does have his uses) found that particular video after watching the video I linked before, I think he's been watching them for a while haha
 
"Man U have included a graduate from their youth set-up in every game since 1937. That's 3,623 straight games."

Blimey.
It's a wonderful run and i'm glad it's come to the fore this week, poignant.

United fans may be interested in this site which documents this run and plenty of other MUFC youth-product related stories/stats.

Bosstuber signed a new contract until 2017
 
BTW, that stat about United's youth system was alot better until a couple of years ago. Until that point it was a youth academy grad in every starting line up for about 3500 games.

Sadly that run came to an end :(

I bet one of your £30m signings took the place of a youth player and ruined that streak.
 
Kitchen Nightmares is such a hilarious show. Ramsey is amazing and the people they find are even more amazing.

Guy in the episode I'm watching said that he prayed for months for a sauce recipe and finally God gave him a recipe for the signature sauce for the restaurant.

It came to an end against Arsenal at the tail end of the 2010/2011 season.

John O'Shea was on the bench, the only youth graduate in the squad that day. His place was taken by Fabio da Silva.

Which BTW might be of note to confuziz. The run consists of genuine youth academy graduates and not players like the da Silva twins who we signed aged 16.

We lost the game 1-0.

Doesn't look like Ade turned up for today's training session.

I still like Ade but he needs to sort himself out, the season has been a totally damp squib for him so far. With JD injured he has a chance to nail down that starting spot and reboot his season but I don't see any real desire from him. Very disappointing.

Oh my god. So good.

Getting really hyped for Feb 20.

If there's a 'no used game' thing, do you reckon they'll tell us on the 20th, or will they drop that particular turd on us when the hype has died down a bit?

Will anyone else be watching it live? I have the night off, so I'll keep you squares on here updated as it happens :D

@Wilbury, I think they're the heads of MS's various Xbox divisions. Steve Ballmer, Don Mattick and someone else I think
