Regardless, I'll likely have more entertainment watching wrestling than anything our team can muster under Sourpuss.

Exactly right! Martial will be on the bench just to satisfy The Bitch's ego. merit and skill will not factor in his treatment, only necessity will determine home many minutes he gets. Just with the first match, the Tree will see more game time than Anthony. The Bitch wants to frustrate him out of the team, similar to his prior treatment of similarly talented young players. Lingard may well start if fit . to a regular football manager maybe, but this is Jose we are talking about. Jose sees The Tree as a emergency option for a goal. he has shown on more than one occasion that he more than prepared to bring on The Tree before he puts on a striker/winger. so i cant say i agree with your assessment there Karma. |

Martial went home in the last week or so of pre-season. he had done the majority of it and he will have still been doing stuff back in Manchester. he has had longer than most to get fit and ready for the season. he is better prepared than Rashford, Lingard and Lukaku.
title changed. don't see whats wrong with @ 16:00 GMT though. it tells our foreign members the time its on ? correct if i am wrong ?

It isn't an email address, and it's British Summer Time. Not GMT.

I would argue using @ is correct nomenclature, given today's tech savvy society.
Not saying I agree with it, but the evolution of the English language, incorporating all means of mutation/amalgamations. Which makes it better than French.

I'm inclined to agree, though I don't really like it. At the very least @ is used for more than email addresses - tagging people here and on Twitter for example. |

The Oxford English Dictionary's standards may have dropped to the lowest common denominator but that doesn't mean RoM's has to. Personal stylistic choice says there is no need for an "at", symbol or otherwise, at all. |

TBF, as I now help with recruitment in my job, if someone put 'I am good @ liaising with...' their CV is straight in the fucking bin. So, I do agree with you. |

Shit. Mourinho moan has spread to the use of @ It was a fairly tongue in cheek exchange. Also, you missed your full stop. It started well, too.  |
