Man U

A contraction of Manchester United that is seen as a derogatory term by many fans, particularly those based in Manchester.

Previously used predominantly by rival fans in songs mocking the Munich Air Disaster ("Man U Never Intended Coming Home", "Man U are manure rotting in their graves" and "Man U, Man U went on a plane"), it is sadly becoming the most common term fans from outside the city refer to the club by.

The club does not issue any merchandise with the words "Man U" on them, nor do any terrace songs refer to the club as such.
