Whups,

Yourself and many other United supporters need to top living in the past where United winning trophies on a regular basis is concerned.

When it mostly happened in the period under managers like Busby, Docherty and Ferguson (all Scottish), United were the richest club in our game, buying many of the best players from within the British Isles and abroad and also signing many of the best young players like Charlton, Edwards, Beckham Giggs, Ronaldo etc.

Now, as a result of foreign investors buying other top clubs who are richer than those who own United and who also can buy the better players and sign outstanding young players, the days of winning trophies on a regular every season have gone unless of course, United get richer owners like neighbours City, Liverpool and the London clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur etc.

Perhaps, the reason why Ferguson retired when he did as he obviously saw the writing on the wall where future success of United was concerned.

United supporters cannot live on past glories for ever.
