If Dunk was let go in Jan I would seriously think about returning my season ticket! You would stop supporting just because dunk was let go? 😂

We might not see his like again. We've already got rid of Bonner; is anyone really considering shipping out the inimitable Dunk?

Hoping we try and tie down a few whose contract run out this summer too. That’s an area that needs addressing. Isn’t it 20+ players out of contract come July 1st? Can’t keep doing a rebuild every summer.

Can’t keep doing a rebuild every summer. We are much more likely to see a major re-build this summer given the change of manager. Neil has both this coming January window, and then the summer window to really stamp his mark on the squad, I think it is therefore very likely we'll see a lot of comings and goings.

Yes, as it’s turned out it’s fine this summer, but having so many players out of contract at the same time is something we need to solve. Easier said than done, but having seen the likes of Iredale, Smith, Knibbs, Jones etc leave for nothing in recent times is not ideal.

"We might not see his like again. We've already got rid of Bonner; is anyone really considering shipping out the inimitable Dunk?"
Indeed, his 'like' is almost incomparable. How many of his like have we even seen since football was invented in 1970. It's a very very small category he finds himself in across the whole of football never mind United.
These kinds of stories are increasingly important to me as I get older and soppy. That level of continuity and connection is something we've done really really well since...I dunno, maybe Chadwick signing? Maybe earlier. I get so much more out of supporting the club when the players seem like they care.
The fact that he's been part of our remarkable rise over his 12 years is just...incomparable.
Anyway, January. As well as one or two additions and departures I'd like to see some contract offers for...Brophy definitely. You'd want Lennett on a longer deal too I guess

Had the misfortune of seeing Keegan on a train a few years back. Very unpleasant chap. Told him I’d much rather have shared a carriage with Michelle…

Never understood this 'female pundits' should stick to women's football. Yes some of them I do find a little boring and out of place, but then there are plenty of male pundits like that too. I don't get the hate for Alex Scott at all.

I don't get the hate for Alex Scott at all. The trouble is most are there because they are women. Karen Carney is very good, Scott is ok, but most of the others are not very good IMO and there because of their sex, to tick a box. Can't remember her name but one on Soccer Saturday is awful. Yes, thats just an opinion but even though I think Merson and Morrison can be awful at times they are entertaining. Not a pundit, but people like Vicky Gommersall and Bianca Westwood are very good as they seem to be passionate football fans and talk very well but that Melissa Reddy is just shocking.
