One similarity is they both appear to have bipolar disorder.

Festy

They both hate the British

Pic looks like someone walked in on him having a crafty one.

The start is wrong. Most fans see bad results as a hope of Moyes being sacked.. Then he gets a good result.

Lapin

At least most people agree that the Irish economy is showing some signs of recovery.

Man Utd on the other hand are going from shíte to worse with and their fans are split down the middle over the future of David Moyes.


Also, unless you're trying to sell your property, negative equity shouldn't be an issue.

Man Utd and their fans on the other hand have to suffer the double whammy of ignomany and humiliation by witnessing their historic rivals LIVERPOOL FC flying high at the top of the league on their way to winning the title in style.

I'd rather have a crippling mortgage and a house on the market for a fraction of what I paid for it than be a Man Utd fan right now.

It:s more a comment on sentiment which binds mass movements.

A bit of editing wouldn't go amiss.

there are just enough fees for all the various snouts – from financiers, lawyers and large estate agents – to hoover up without appearing greedy

And er providing god knows how many journalists employment as commentate on it.

McWilliams and his brand of 'economics for the masses' schtick is wearing very thin at this stage.

anncoates

They sit in pubs pretending to be Mancunians to the mortification of all and sundry and are all currently nervously contemplating switching to being plastic scousers for the next few years.

Not sure about property developers.
