It must be soul-destroying to be so consumed with jealousy. United had already won the Premiership 7 or 8 times and the European Cup twice before the Glazers had even heard of Manchester United.

So why didn't he follow on that success, invest more money, bring in a few better players - your one time hero Shearer has said that the lack of foresight in not improving the team after winning the Premiership is the cause of their downward spiral towards oblivion

I'll go along with that so long as the May Bank Holiday is also re-named, perhaps we need to offer up a few suggestions?

How about,

Jaysay Moanday or Accyman Dya?
