Man Utd are always going to be loved and loathed in equal measure for that reason, regardless of how well (or otherwise) they perform on the pitch.

yes a good point actually.. in the 70's and until the 90's we were basically crap.. with just a few FA Cups.. the liverpool side of the 70's and 80's was prob the best England side ever 4 European Cups can't be wrong..
I do think arsenal have been the best side all season but not by as much as the press make out.. Just don't like the fact that they are getting over praised but as you said i guess it has happened to us in the past as well.
Thing that really upset me was when i read the FA were thinking about giving the FA cup to arsenal if they won it! Would they ever do that to United ? How about giving us the Premiership trophy when they had tp put the new sponsors name on it.. we did win it 8 times in 10 seasons..
