When Malcom Glazer bought out Man United last month, several hundred fans stomped off in a huff, vowing to not support the club as long as Glazer owned it. To their credit, these guys have decided to try and return something vaguely like the ManU name to glory on their own, forming a new club called United of Manchester. The team held tryouts this weekend and looks to being play at the very bottom of the English football ladder. Of course, the great thing about European footy is that if the team catches fire and gets good enough, it could slowly climb up the ranks towards the Premiership. Wimbledon AFC, formed after Wimbledon was moved to Milton Keynes, is already on the verge of breaking into the Football League. So it can be done.
