A Question of Two Birthdays (Rant) (self.reddevils)

AlpacamyLlama が 投稿

So today on Red Devils, two birthdays were discussed - Jimmy Murphy and Louis van Gaal. The latter somehow garnering twice as many upvotes and many times more comments than the former.

I'm prepared for an onslaught of downvotes, but is anyone else a bit irritated by this? The impact Murphy had on this club is absolutely profound - arguably only Busby and Ferguson are more important in our history. Van Gaal was mediocre at best.

Our history as a club is vitally important, and yet it feels like many would rather track Pogba's plane across the Atlantic than give time and appreciation to those who made us the club we are today.

Maybe I'm cranky because it's a Monday but there's something that really annoyed me about this. I appreciate this is Reddit, and not a matter of life and death, but this is a reflection of a fair amount of United supporters and I just get a bit staggered by such things.

Mate I have said it before and I will say it again. On says like this where there is so much going on you get every window licker under the sun on here and posting.

Unfortunately a lot of people don't care and don't want to know like that moron below.

Good on you for caring. Don't let it ruin your day. Pogba is back and people are excited that will rule the roost for posts today.

See, the thing is, I'm not comparing this to the signing of Pogba, which is clearly a big deal. Just a clear comparison of two birthdays summing up a lot of people's interest in United's history. But there we go.

You're coming off as a snob. Might I add, getting annoyed over how other people spend their time is a complete waste of your time. We all want to appreciate the club in own ways. Do not judge if you don't want to receive similar treatment.

Maybe I am. Maybe some people just don't like opinions that show them how they are.

If asking people to care a little about the people who made United what they are, then I guess I am a bit of a snob. Amazing that's all that is required for that.
