    Re: Why do you support Man Utd?

     I was brought up to support United by my father. But, its the rich history of the club that grips me. Put the success to one side. The horrific Munich Air Disaster. The 50th Anniversary so much about it. I was gripped by it all. The reaction, stories etc. 

    But then you have such iconic figures. Eric Cantona, George Best, Steve Bruce, Sir Alex Ferguson, Sir Bobby Charlton, Sir Matt Busby. The list goes on. This great club is in my blood. 

    The success, well, what can I say?

    First English team to win the European Cup
    11 Premier League Titles
    Champions of the World
    The treble in '99

    I couldn't picture myself supporting another team. I'm United forever.

    Yes support a team closer to home and it might prevent them going bust.

    Re: Why do you support Man Utd?

    Not a Glory Hunter at all man or else we would all be too shallow to type about this ***.

    I love them because they're special. Lets face it Manchester United is in terms of its history and tradition is a unique club there is nothing like it on the planet.

    Okay i was kinda born into being a red but it didnt take long for me to fall in love with them and football in general. Since i was about 4 or 5 i can vaguely remember watching match of the day with my older brother, and i vaguely remember posters and action figure things in his room of Cantona and Giggs. Beckham was the first players name i remember oh and Scholes because my brothers nickname, christened by some English man living on my road, was the Irish Scholes because of his precosious footballing skills and ginger hair, But i also fell in love with the whole team in around 2001 because i started to really become big into football.

     I've been to 2 matches at Old Trafford so far, including a 1-0 victory over Chelsea and autographs from my 2 fav players at the time, Van Nistlerooy and Ronaldo. Im not sure why but Solskjaer was allways to me the most awesome and Keane also especially cos of his Irishness and that.

    I also, years ago watched a video which my dad bought called goals of the century, it featured the likes of Pele, Cruyff, Van Basten and Maradonna etc.. but also Best, Charlton, Cantona and Giggs which helped give me a sence of the clubs great history aswell as documentaries on the tragic Munich Air disaster.

     Have i allways supported them? Of course! i even followed them during the phill Neville/John o Shea midfield years and Roy Carroll the goal keeper and Ferdinands ridiculously annoying hairstyles, a period which saw us fail to win win the league for like 3 years.

    Re: Why do you support Man Utd?

    Since 1966 when my parents split up and mother took us kids back to her home town to live. I went to my grandads one sunday afternoon and The Big Match was on the telly, never knew about football as my dad didn't like it, and saw Man Utd v Spurs I think, and George Best was playing and that was it, hooked.

    Re: Why do you support Man Utd?

     i support manchester united because when i was younger i was watching my first ever Match Of The Day and Cantona scored a brilliant goal that day, can't remember who it was against, and i was three or so, so i have been supporting them for 12 years and i have supported them ever since, but before that i was forced to wear liverpool shirts becuase my mum and dad both supported the scousers, but since i watched that episode of Match Of The Day, I have supported Manchestyer United and no matter what happens to the club, i will always support Manchester United!!!

    Re: How I Became A United Fan!

     I've been a serious fan for about the last 5 years.  As a young player in America, Beckham was a big deal.  So naturally I was drawn to The late 90's/early 00's united squad.  Since I've started supporting United, I've fallin in love with the team.  The history, the best manager, the legendary players, its fascinating.

    Come on you Reds!
