#235 – Bored Stiff




Rant Cast show

Summary: Goals. There was a time when Manchester United scored them. Sometime before Sir Alex Ferguson retired, as Rant Cast recalls. There were none as United drew with Newcastle at Old Trafford on Saturday; and just two in three Premier League games this season. Ed & Paul look back on an uninspiring fixture – one in a pattern from Louis van Gaal’s side. Is the Dutchman’s obsession with possession making football boring? There’s also a look back on United’s victory over Club Brugge in the Champions League – a 3-1 win leaving United on the precipice of a return to European football. Also on the show: your questions answered, a preview of United’s weekend fixture with Swansea City in Wales and a quick look ahead to the game with Liverpool after the international break.
