Sean.

For a neutral it must have been exciting.

It infuriated me that it could go to penalties after being 3-0 up.

I was actually laughing sarcastically and almost wishing Coventry won.

That's how bad I felt.


May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.

Pat,if the Coventry goal had stood,there wouldn't have been penos,and the Coventry player kicking his penalty over the bar sealed their fate...

Dunno if you saw it Pat, a great match. Now, maybe it was Ten Hags tactics, but City weren't really themselves,especially in the first half. But having said that, Man U were really super all match. A well-deserved win ...

... but will Ten Hag be there next season??? 🤔 
One of its legs is both the same

Glad Manu won it Pat. I dont like to see one team win more than one trophy and good to see the honours shared. As Gerry says, the big question is Ten Haggs future now.

Hi Gerry.

Saw the game in the Irish pub here. I had a good feeling all dsy that United would win so we went out to see the game. KO was 10pm here and met up with another man whose Manchester born and whom I've got to know over the last few years. He also loves traveling so we share travel tips etc.

Fabulous win that had me jumping for joy. I was on Sprite for the  night as I can't drink alcohol at the moment due recent dental surgery. It didn't affect my voice though 😂😂.

I so hope Ten Hag is kept on. He deserves it and as he says himself we're in a transitional project and our season has been plagued by injuries. 

Plus he came into the club that's in tatters, underfunded from that shower of owners the Glazers, having to panic buy through lack of funds and inheriting a squad that had too many wasters in it. 

A clear out of deadwood has already begun, young players are coming through from the academy and with a few good signings during the summer transfer window I reckon we could be a force next season.

It makes no sense to change the manager now. We've being doing that since Fdrguson retired without much success.

Thanks Brian. Appreciate that.👍👍.

Have replied to Gerry.above re the Ten Hag situation. 

I sincerely hope he's our manager next season.
