I can't stand United but am quite happy for them to fly the flag for England. I wont be watching the match and wont be at all upset if United lose though.

As a young lad I always wanted any English, in fact British, club to triumph in a European match against Johhny Foreigner.

Now - not so much.

Same. I'd want someone like Everton to win, but not really bothered with Manure.

So... Meh

Seems bizarre to be saying it but....

I hope United win and qualify for the Champions League on the off chance that it leads us to be facing a weakened team next season!

United all the way. Unlike a lot of people I do like a slice of Mourinho.

I always used to support the British teams,but there isn't such a thing any more. The fact that a team plays in England doesn't make them English any more. American owner, Portuguese manager. See Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool etc etc.

Are Ajax still Dutch owned? If so, I will be supporting them.

Ajax are a fan owned club still yes

So your own reasons for supporting a distant football club are valid, but others aren't? OK.

Ajax. To punish Mourinho's arrogance in abandoning the Premier League campaign and pinning everything on this for Champions League qualification. His record with United is ordinary at best so far and silverware would just help him disguise how poor they've been for the outlay.

There's a town just outside Toronto called Ajax. Of course it gets pronounced Aye-Jacks.

I shall be supporting the Dutch. Really can't stand United.

Thanks. In that case I am definitely Team Ajax, over the asset stripping American owned MUFC Inc Corp registered in the Bahamas.

I always want the English teams to win (unless it was to be Palace) but since Moaninho joined, my hatred of ManUre has reached nuclear proportions. So.... I'm not so sure now.

That makes no sense.

1. Before the fixtures are out that's an entirely random call - our relegation rivals are equally as likely to benefit from a potential weakened team. It could very easily work against us.

2. If they don't win, then they'd be in next season's Europa League, so would be playing us (or, again, a rival) a couple of days after a 3000 mile trip to Baku on a Thursday night.
