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.

Northern scum, very large fanbase, half of the fans however, are not even FROM manchester, making them a bunch of cocksucking, jump on the bandwagon, sheep. Fans ignore the team they are from, they ignore the fact that they are at the bottom of the premiership, or even in league 1, they have no loyalty, no pride, no nothing, they would rather be yet another fuckin sheep supporting man u despite the fact that they've never even been to manchester. Man uinted suck cock, and all of their sheep fans should be fuckin murdered
Sheep from south london or w/e- Wow, Man u are the best, I'm not even from manchester, I should really support a south london team, but they arent at the top of the premiership now are they?

Me- punches the faggot in the face, then kills all man u's fans

Short for Manchester United, which means, for a man who has sojourned long, and endured much, even to be thought to be a Manchester, to be finally united with his muse.
-- So, after being mistakenly thought to be all about the carbon cockprint, he endured being a Manchester.

-- Yeah, and now that he'll hook-up with his muse he'll be a Man-U.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
