Manchester United Football Club is an English Premiership football club, based at Old Trafford in Manchester. The club is one of the most successful clubs in England, having won the FA Premier League/Football League seventeen times, FA Cup eleven times and the European Cup/UEFA Champions League three. Manchester United has had the highest average attendance in English football for the majority of the past seventeen seasons!


Man Utd's greatest period of success came in the 1990s and early 2000s, when Sir Alex Ferguson guided them to eight league championships in eleven years. In 1999, Man Utd became the first team to win the FA Premier League, the FA Cup and the European Cup in the same season — a record that has still not been equalled. The club had been run as a Public Limited Company since 1991, and a takeover was a real possiblility. An attempted takeover by Rupert Murdoch had been blocked by the British Government in 1999, but in 2005 Malcolm Glazer completed a hostile takeover of the club, despite considerable protests from many of Manchester United's supporters. In protest a group of break away supporters formed FC United Of Manchester (or FCUM for short). However as much as the atmosphere at Old Trafford has changed Manchester United under the Glazers have continued to go from strength to strength winning the Premier League title for three out of the last 4 seasons. If Manchester United can win it again this year it will take them one above Liverpool in all time top tier titles, something that will really annoy Liverpool fans!


Manchester United fell short last year, even though the title did go down to the wire I think it was fairly obvious to even the most entrenched Man Utd fan that the team were just not firing on all cylinders, there seemed to be too much emphasis on Rooney. The 2010/2011 season looks to be totally different with the whole squad seemingly enjoying their football much more. Wise money would say that the goals should be spread around a bit more this season and whilst it might make games more exciting to watch It'll likely do nothing for the nerves of United fans.


Whilst watching from home is great, there is nothing you can do to beat the atmosphere of a live football game, Manchester United tickets are renowned as being hard to get but if you are lucky you might be able to buy some from this official Manchester United tickets exchange website.
