Everyone calls man u the scum. It is there official nick name. Calling mu the scum isnt being mad or angry, its just obeying the rules of the football lexicon.

[/ QUOTE ]I thought that Liverpool was called the Scum (because he term is close to Scousers).
I just started following EPL last season and for some reason, I hate Pool much more than I hate any other team in the EPL. (Except for Peter Crouch, he's so goofy, he's almost cool.)

Nah, you have to remember that there was a long period when MU totally dominated the EPL starting about 1992 with the arrival of Cantona, Keane and the emergence of Giggs, there winning it was practically a done deal at the start of every season and they won 4 out of 5 between 92-97 with them going on to win the treble in 99. Obviously during this period all fans of other clubs began to hate mu and if you spoke to any other fan and said scum it was understood you were talking about MU.



Eric Cantona.
