Came across this on the web this morning 😢

[Tunstall Fred]

I have and he agreed with me.

How very convenient for you,I have asked 2 lads I know,and they agree with me,how convenient for me

 

[SUFC Guy]

They were promoted in 1991 so it's 28 years.

Ah, my bad. That's the last time they graced the top flight in 99/00

I should have worded it correctly

 

[benn5712]

How long since SWFC were promoted to the top tier of English Football ?

20 YEARS / 240 MONTHS / 12,480 WEEKS / 87,360 DAYS / 2,096,640 MINUTES / 125,798,400 SECONDS - if my memory serves me correctly

And that was a curtain raiser to " MONSTER TRUCKS "

Even if you count it as a major honour (which nobody does), it was still 50 years ago.

So my original point still stands.

You mean your mate and you don’t count it as a major trophy,I don’t think that is a wide spread belief and think you two are in the minority

I'm getting a wiff of summat from this op.

Yep. Rancid reek of

Brilliant thread.

Would have been even better in its proper place, The hidden section of Pork Talk

Oh dear.....

Posters who moan about fellow United fans accusing obvious Pigs of being Pork,are extremely tiresome,you need to get down from that high horse.

Poor old Bladesmanscotty , only 5 posts in 2 years and it's no wonder as he's got savaged for this one. A quick check of those previous posts does not suggest he's a pork infiltrator - quite the opposite. I think the post is genuine if a little naive.

Sometimes it must feel like a jungle coming on here.

It makes me wonder,how I keep from goin under

 

[Bladesmanscotty]

Wow, I wasn’t expecting that response! 100% Blade here. I just came across it this morning on a site where you can see the last time ANY team had won a trophy. I was having a laugh at Liverpool not winning the Premier League since 1990 and just typed in The Blades and this is what came up. It wasn’t meant to offend any Blades, if it has, I apologise, you check it out on: lastwonatrophy.co.uk

 

[Tom Bott]

That is a major honour to be fair.

Though Rumbelows went out of business in 1995, luckily the Co-Op bank survived their brush with oinkers.

Don't push me, cos I'm close to the,,edge.

Why do I live here.

You're in the sugar hill gang

And the winner is...

The website mentioned by the OP agrees with me.

Yes it does,no mention at all of the 1969 Fairs Cup win,but does mention the Intertoto in 2005.However I still maintain that in 1969 they won a major trophy,we are going to have to agree to disagree on the matter.

 

[ucandomagic]

They won my heart in 1971.

Fuck the rest.

 

[Shanks]

Maybe true but how many cup finals have they been in, we have been in nil,none,zero we have always failed at numerous semi finals, one against Newcastle, my point is I can’t think of a club in the top, say 30, that has more loyal fans with such a poor record

Just to clarify, I certainly wasn’t imputing the pong of pork to Bladesmanscotty It’s the odour of his source that I was questioning ⚔

 

[Sean Thornton]

Yeah I've never heard of half of them.

Never even heard of the team Newcastle beat in the final.

Highly unlikely looking at the teams involved.

Little clubs like Leeds, Chelsea and Liverpool. Clearly tinpot. If the Pigs were in it, he'd be singing their praises......

 

[BushBlade]

While the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup is recognised as the predecessor to the UEFA Cup, it was not organised by UEFA. Consequently, UEFA does not consider clubs' records in the Fairs Cup to be part of their European record.[3][5] However, FIFA does view the competition as a major honour.[6]

So you can argue either way, there isn’t a definitive answer.

But on the basis Dirty Leeds won it twice, it’s shit and tinpot and means nowt.

 

[Living In a Fantasy World]

We won league one, so that's wrong.

It does say this also..............So, here is your chance to share the page of their football team, which shows a count-up clock since they last won a trophy. Have fun, rub it in their face and remember… it’s all a bit of fun.

 

[Peaktrade]

Let's be fair, we don't support united for trophies... It's because we are deep rooted and proud of where we're from and hate the pigs... can't do with man city supporters from London or the pigs

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

If the Pigs were in it, he'd be singing their praises......

Why would I?

 

[Sean Thornton]

You defend the Grunters more often on here than their own.

Prove it.

Prove it.

Very mature.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Very mature.

Because you can't.

It's only in your head mate.
