Write For The Manchester United Offside!

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 1 Comment

As I mentioned on Monday, The Manchester United page is looking for bloggers to cover the biggest club on the planet. I am planning on staying on and posting 1-2 times a week, but we were looking for someone to cover the day to day news stories. If you’re interested in the position, you can [...]

United 2 – Blackburn 0 : The Obertan Era Begins… with a scuffed shot wide…

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 7 Comments

So another decent performance sees United secure all three points at Old Trafford. Overall, I was pleased with the result, but still found a few things troubling. The inability of our three main strikers to score consistently when given the opportunity is slightly worrying, but Obertan’s EPL debut coupled with Berba’s world class finish left [...]

A Rudderless United

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 16 Comments

I really have only one thing to say about yesterday’s performance. My girlfriend and I were out to dinner Friday night and the topic of the Liverpool match came up. She asked me if I was nervous/if she should avoid being in the apartment Sunday morning and I (like an idiot) told her the following. [...]

The Friday Links – October 23, 2009

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 2 Comments

This week has been crazy in pretty much every sense of the word. From insane results in the Champions League to a magic fight in Madrid to Wes Brown’s Zombie Corpse making an appearance in Moscow, it’s been a bit of a random week. So, how better to cap it all off then another dose [...]

Things I Learned From This Weekend

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 3 Comments

• It’s good to have Edwin Van der Sar back. Bolton may have pulled a goal back, but the big Dutchman kept his area clear for a large portion of the game and definitely seemed to be a calming presence at the back. The play that most stands out in my mind is when Van der [...]

United 1 – Le Havre 0: Pogba to be a United player

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 11 Comments

And with that, Paul Pogba became a Manchester United player. After months of speculation regarding the fate of the French teenager, a FIFA-appointed judge upheld United’s claim that Pogba could not have been offered financial inducements to break a contract (because he didn’t have one) and was therefore free to sign with the English champions.

United Bits and Bobs – October 6, 2009

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 11 Comments

Manchester United have today confirmed that Ritche De Laet will be a United player until at least 2012. The Belgian defender was offered a new contract that will keep him at Old Trafford for the foreseeable future (not entirely sure in what capacity, but at least he’ll be here). De Laet, now 20, was a [...]

Ben Foster: Keeper of the Future?

By: Taylor Rockwell | Comments 15 Comments

Saturday’s match against Sunderland saw yet another questionable performance from current Manchester United keeper Ben Foster. United and Sunderland were tied at one all when a deft cross from Andy Reid was headed home by Black Cats striker Kenwyne Jones. Some (including Sir Alex Ferguson and Ben Foster) will argue that this goal was the [...]
