178: Late drama at Fulham, Copenhagen awaits & fancam nonsense Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

Dale and Brian look back at Manchester United's 1-0 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage.

It was another uninspiring performance from the Reds and Brian was at the game to tell us a bit more about the atmosphere, scenes at full-time and how he was lucky not to miss kick-off.

Bruno Fernandes stepped up like all good leaders do with a stoppage-time winner. A quality strike in a game that lacked real quality throughout.

As well as captain Bruno showing what he can do in front of goal, Harry Maguire was terrific at the back and Andre Onana kept his fifth clean sheet of the season.

We also take a look at the nonsense being spread about Marcus Rashford from one infamous fancam channel.

And of course, we look ahead to Copenhagen away.

That and more on episode 178 of the Strettycast.

177: Ten Hag pressure, players downing tools, Glazer rot Nov 02, 2023

Show notes

Dale and Brian digest another two home defeats as Manchester United suffer humiliation in the Manchester derby and crash out of the Carabao Cup a few days later.

*Includes a matchday bonus from the derby as Dale catches up with Jason and Matt in Manchester.

Then Brian helps reflect on what were two terrible results for Ten Hag, with reports now suggesting that United are considering other managers. We then look at where the rot begins - from top to bottom - and how the manager is on a road to nowhere with the current ownership. Things need to change on and off the pitch.

176: Copenhagen, banana waving Berties, a poor version of Matic? Oct 27, 2023

Show notes

Dale and Brian review Manchester United's 1-0 win over FC Copenhagen.

Old Trafford paid tribute to the late Sir Bobby Charlton on Tuesday night. A man that epitomised Manchester United.

On the pitch, Harry Maguire saved the bacon with a match-winning header before Andre Onana's stoppage-time penalty save.

We also chat about Sunday's Manchester derby.

That and more in episode 176.

174: McTominay brace, Onana form & Beckham series Oct 13, 2023

Show notes

Dale and Brian are joined by Stretty News columnist Matt Henderson to reflect on Manchester United's 2-1 win over Brentford.

Scott McTominay scored a brace in stoppage time after coming off the bench to force a comeback. Old Trafford erupted and the boos that were heard at half-time were countered by full-time cheers.

The lads then discuss Andre Onana's form. The goalkeeper made another blunder against Brentford, although the goal came from a catalog of errors. Brian hits the nail on the head with his explanation on why pundits will focus on Onana but not Liverpool's Allison whenever he makes mistakes. The Brazilian had a blunder of his own against Brighton last weekend.

Matt tells us he thinks Manchester United will go all the way in Europe... and then we slapped him with a bit of reality.

Furthermore, some chat about the new David Beckham documentary series on Netflix without too many spoilers.

173: Unfortunate taste of Turkish delight Oct 05, 2023

Show notes

Manchester United’s season goes from bad to worse with a record of six defeats in our opening 10 matches. Andre Onana is in a world of his own, the defence is makeshift at best and Casemiro picks up his first red card of the campaign. All while Rasmus Hojlund proves to be the only silver lining with his brace on against Galatasaray. Season ticket holders may wonder why there is sticky piece of Turkish Delight is stuck to the bottom of their seat, but we can assure you the Glazers aren’t being generous. That and more on the Strettycast episode 173 with season ticket holder Nathan Thomas.

We also discuss a new initiative from the Manchester United Foundation, which Nathan does work for. They are appealing for a winter coat collection ahead of this weekend's game against Brentford. It's a sobering thought that some of the youth in our community are fearful of being cold this winter and this is your opportunity to help through your football club.

The work Nathan and others do is something we can be proud of as Manchester United fans.

172: Doom, gloom & an old balanced voice welcomed back in the room Oct 02, 2023

Show notes

Dale, Brian and Jonathan get together to share their thoughts after watching back-to-back games against Crystal Palace.

Jonathan Shrager is considered royalty in these parts as a discerning Red who helped launch Stretty News TV back during the Moyesy era, so it was fascinating to catch up with up a good friend I've got to know really well through our love for Manchester United.

Episode 172 overview

Why was there a sudden drop in standards when Erik ten Hag made several changes to the team that knocked Palace out of the Carabao Cup before recalling some big names and losing to the same side four days later?

Do we have the same emotion behind winning the Carabao Cup this season?

Is Marcus Rashford really the problem like some sections of the fanbase suggest or does Ten Hag stand by our most prolific scorer last season?

Three months without Lisandro Martinez?

Rubbish surrounding the takeover as the Glazers continue to bleed United dry.

That and more in your latest Strettycast!

170: Reds in Munich Sep 22, 2023

Show notes

Dale and Brian set off on their travels across Europe to watch Manchester United take on Bayern Munich. Although there's a lot of negativity surrounding the club, there was excitement in the air as United returned to the Champions League. From Dublin to Frankfurt to Munich, picking up stories along the way that we'll never forget. The Manchesterplatz was something the two of us visited for the first time, which was a emotional experience and it was good to hear the club follow suit with a delegation on Thursday morning. There was also disappointment on the pitch as United suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of the Bundesliga champions, but let's not forget how Rasmus Hojlund get off the mark, right?

169: Ten Hag in? Ten Hag out? Relax... Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

The lads are back for yet another podcast after Manchester United suffered a 3-1 defeat to Brighton. Dale and Brain are travelling to Munich and there's more to come on that in the next episode.

Amongst the topics of conversation were underperforming players and a manager facing more pressure by the week.

Meanwhile, the message from the Strettycast trio is clear on Ten Hag.
