It's no secret that I hate Man U with a passion, but this has really riled me tonight.

hyped up shite: said:
Another co-owner Gary Neville tweeted: "Incredible story on Sadiq El Fitouri. Well done to Phil and Scholesy for showing belief in a lad who was out of the game!

"Phil and Scholesy gave him his Salford City debut just three weeks ago and the boy has signed for United. #dreamscometrue"

So what was this footballing miracle? Who was this young kid that has made news with his plucking from slumming it in non-league and doing enough to finally get his big break? Is it another example of United signing another homeless kid like Bebe for loads of money without seeing him play? (note, that wasn't actually true, he played in a street tournament not the homeless world cup as stated at the time)

the truth said:
Libya-born defender Sadiq El Fitouri has joined Manchester United from Evo-Stik First Division side Salford City on an 18-month deal.
Sadiq, 20, joined Salford City as a trialist in December after being released by Manchester City.

Seriously? Is this news? Is this 'dreams come true' to play for Man City, then after a month be at Man U? Should that expression not be reserved for some kid kicking a can about outside the stadium and then being asked to fill in for Rooney upfront? Or for the average fan who's seat number gets called out to replace De Gea in goal as he crashed into the sub keeper during the warm up to injure them both.

Hardly Roy of the Rovers stuff. Rant over.
