    Well documented on here that I am no huge fan of Europe apart from in an economic, social and cultural perspective.

    One’s domestic league title is always and will always be the first priority to me. We had scattered success in this respect as opposed to sustained.

    Certainly 1 was allowed to slip in the period you reference.

    It's telling, in fact, that during what we like to call our period of dominance, United won just as many leagues as we did.

    Well they are a significantly bigger club. What constitutes dominance for us is average for them.

    That's true if you ignore the 25 year period during which they didn't win the league once and were relegated.

    New to football, Rich?

    Can you imagine Vieira or McLintock relegating us, IUFG? Me, neither.

    That really is quite, quite beautiful.
