OK, first of all I don't call us Man-U as I know about the Munich song. But...
Seems that hardly any non-Utd fans know about this, and (as confirmed by many of the posters above), quite a large proportion of Utd fans don't either. Rather than getting offended every time we hear it (when most people don't mean offence), isn't it time we re-claimed the 'U' as our own? Like African-Americans and the 'n' word?
For the few idiots who say Man U to cause offence... they're disgusting wind-up merchant low-lifes, but by getting wound up, we're giving them what they want, surely?!
