Not trying to be all sentimental and / or brown nosing. But I just thought I'd say how good the site has been today. Not sure if it was the 'calm after yesterday's storm' or what. But the page today is back to how it used to be. No conflict or unnecessary arguements (although I did ask if a new poster, Rollo, was actually JMB for which I apologise!!) and everyone with constructive and interesting posts. Also, a big thanks to the Eds, especially 001. I can't remember any other day when there was so much interaction and banter, as well as useful information from the Eds. We all miss Ed 002, but today showed that there are more than just him/her who can provide the info we all crave.
I know everyone is entitled to air their views, but the site is so much better without the bitching and attention seeking.
Have a good evening all :)

{Ed002's Note - That is because I have deleted the accounts of loads of people and deleted dozens and dozens of posts - and I will be continuing to do so on this page.}

Ed002
Not the hero we deserve, but the one we need. (S)He's been silently protecting us all along. A watchful guardian.

15 Jul 2015 19:52:38
We appreciate it ed02.

I agree bwetty been a nice mellow day.

15 Jul 2015 19:57:00
Betty, I have a tear in my eye. Any chance of us knowing who has been deleted?

15 Jul 2015 19:58:00
Thanks ed. I guess most of us can only imagine what you guys have to sift through, like you personally I was getting frustrated by some posters, glad to see that you are working behind the scenes to make this a better site as you know we would all like to see you posting your insights again. But I respect your decision and reasons,

15 Jul 2015 19:58:45
Well whatever you are doing Ed I am sure it is for the good of the site , as always. I'm sure you will get no complaints from the genuine members of the site if you see fit to ban the idiots. It makes it a much better site to frequent. Good work!

15 Jul 2015 20:03:21
u correct betty today was really interesting read and thx to ed01 for all the information

15 Jul 2015 20:07:02
100% agree BS, if it keeps it as enjoyable as it has been today, delete away ed! Ed001 has been on top form too.

{Ed001's Note - I am not feeling on top form now though, I went to the local little cafe I go to for cheap food, normally they don't speak to me much because no one understands me here. Unfortunately there was a Sri Lankan guy who speaks really good English, so I ended up with 40 people sat round a table for 4 having all this food forced on me to try, as I didn't know what it was. I feel sick, as it would have been bad manners not to eat it, and it was free, I like free. Free is good. Oh and it doesn't matter where you go, footie is defo the main talking point, that was all that they wanted to hear about.}

15 Jul 2015 20:20:35
Betty i was having the same thoughts myself this evening reading through thinking its been a while since I've enjoyed the page so much, thanks ED's for the addition editing

15 Jul 2015 20:06:12
Weeding out the trash, eh? As P.G Wodehouse said: "Flowers are happy things."

(And fingers crossed for Lewandowski and Otamendi!)

15 Jul 2015 20:26:11
Completely agree guys, haven't seen it like that in ages! Big thanks to Ed001! Killed it today, keep up the good work!

{Ed001's Note - thank you mate, not often I get on the United pages, as it used to draw in a lot of abuse with me being a Liverpool fan, but with Ed025 being busy, Ed007 being erm well Ed007 and Ed004 too busy posting under his nom de plume of Fresh! there were actually posts for me to do for a change. It is always interesting getting a completely different viewpoint on the game.}

15 Jul 2015 20:27:28
This is what I'm like when I go to my nan's 001, all she does is force out of date meals on me because I look "malnourished" I'm bloody 15 stone.

{Ed001's Note - compared to Ed007 and Ed025 you are malnourished mate.}

15 Jul 2015 20:34:31
Oh I feel for you ed I really do! A lovely country, beautiful weather and picturesque scenery.

Is there any hope left in this world :)

{Ed001's Note - it is a hard life CTR, but someone has to do it. Luckily I am still young and beautiful enough to fit in with the weather.}

15 Jul 2015 20:39:50
Totally agree with this post, good days harmonious banter and conversation and once again great interaction with the Eds, Ed001 for the detailed posts and wit, Bond for his bluntness and of course Ed002 for deleting the dross and anti banter. Long may it continue.

15 Jul 2015 20:42:57
You'll b crapping thru the eye of a needle 2 nyt Eddie

💩💩

{Ed001's Note - no doubt, it was all really spicy, I must have drunk 3 gallons of water to stop my tongue burning up. I swear there was steam coming out my ears at one point. I had to check the missus wasn't there breathing fire in my ear after a bad day, but it was only my ears steaming. Still it was worth it for free food.}

15 Jul 2015 20:48:41
Ha ha, just like me ed, if it's free I'll eat 'almost' anything :-)
Sounds like you had a good time anyway, and you are spot on about the talking point thing. I've spent hours and hours over the years, in some odd places talking to locals about United and football. One of my favourites was talking to an old chap about the 1999 CL Final while he was selling chips outside an amphitheatre in Tunisia!

{Ed001's Note - it is amazing how you can go anywhere in the world and they know the English clubs. Most of them where saying how they dream of going to England to watch a game one day in the Prem at the home ground of whichever team it was they supported. And there were a surprising number of different teams they liked too.}

15 Jul 2015 20:55:02
Quick test post to see if I haven't been culled.

{Ed001's Note - ooooo I wonder if a test post is a rules violation worthy of a cull????}

15 Jul 2015 20:09:34
Well done ed002

15 Jul 2015 21:03:18
Well as long as your going to be alright mate that's good.

15 Jul 2015 21:28:53
Yeah the chap in Tunisia was a Villa fan, but his son was a United fan, hence the CL final topic. Another I chatted to was a tour guide in Giza, walking up the steps inside the Great Pyramid and in the burial chamber, didn't learn much about the Pyramid but had a great time. He, bizarrely, was a Portsmouth fan. Great times, and shows what a wonderful sport it can be, and how wonderful people can be too, leaves you with fantastic, lifelong memories.

{Ed001's Note - it is also good to be reminded that no matter what team people support, we are all really the same in that we love the game.}

15 Jul 2015 21:29:55
Where abouts in Sri lanka are you Ed? Beautiful country!

{Ed001's Note - I am in Dubai mate, just happen to be in an area that is mostly Indians, Sri Lankans, Pakistanis and Africans. In fact I am the only white person I have seen here in this area since Ed033 went back to the UK! I feel like a zoo exhibit at times. People just keep stopping and staring. Though they could just be taken aback by my stunning good looks, I am not sure.}

15 Jul 2015 21:33:48
ed01 u have to visit my city u wil find the good spicy food and if u in lanka it just few hours we just can't eat with out spice

{Ed001's Note - if I ever get the chance to visit Sri Lanka I will be sure to do that mate.}

15 Jul 2015 21:04:59
Is bond in court again?

{Ed007's Note - I've not got any time to be a criminal lately. I'm left to do everything while Ed001 disappears for an hour and a half to feed his face and I'm left eating sandwiches the Mrs has made me before she went to work.
It's not all glamour and raking through Ed002's underwear drawer you know.}

15 Jul 2015 22:41:44
Good looks 001? All I see is a burnt Bruce-look-a-like from Finding Nemo! ;)

*hoping you catch on*

{Ed001's Note - you would be surprised how many women like the red.....}
