"Bad sign for United Manchester United sign Ballack denies United rumours Manchester United's difficult pre-season continues after jokers altered a huge sign at Old Trafford, turning it into a four-letter word. The impressive neon construction - which sits at the top of the stadium, high above the statue of Sir Matt Busby - usually spells out the club's name. But somehow pranksters managed to change it to reveal the obscenity. United officials were alerted to the embarrassing situation by journalists at the Manchester Evening News and acted quickly to restore the sign to normal. A club spokeswoman dismissed suggestions fans angry at the takeover by the Glazers were responsible. She said: "We have had contractors in doing work on the stadium. It seems someone has messed with plugs at the back of the lights as a prank. "We would like to apologise to anyone that took offence - the sign now proudly says Manchester United again."
too funny... I had just read an article about that but it didn't mention the obscenity... Now i can sleep peacefully.
IORP.. you always keep em comin mate~ You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to its_only_ray_parlour again.
Rep to you! I had read the article and divined the offensive alteration, but as you say, to see with one's own eyes....
I suppose it's relatively amusing. Not much imagination though. It will be interesting to see if they ever get to the bottom of it.
LOL, fookin' gas. the one bright-spot on my day (gumline operation... not only are you drowsy, but I'm guessing a lot of blood goes down your throat, I've felt queezy all day. Or maybe it's just like Seinfeld with the dentist?) Either way, I might I landed myself a job since the guy lying in the bed next to me (that being a - seperate - ) works for Vodaphone and said he'd give me a ring, since they're looking for people going into college to work the phones - fvck it, money's money. My oh my, how painkillers & the like make me ramble .
Glazer is a CVNT?! - BRILLIANT! oh man... the sign was pretty funny to begin with, but now its legendary.
