what's life like in manchester?

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

I've only been there once and that was to visit the Uber-Fuhrer-for-life...I imagine he'd know better than me.
I would have waited a ******* eternity for this!!!!

Same here.

Well I could say I've been there twice, but that was technically Salford. Being as, true to everything about the club, Man Utd's ground isn't actually in Manchester.
