United go for 17th title, not 10th

The most annoying reports of the last week are the ones mentioning United are aiming for a 10th premier league title. What happened to the other 7 don't they count, because they were before the inception of the premier league. By that yardstick Liverpool have never won a title, whilst all United fans would love that to be true, obviously it isn't. What will make this title all the sweeter is the thought that we will only be one title triumph behind them with every possibility of overtaking their championship haul before they actually win one again. Especially with the ownership shenanigans going on there. Meanwhile Fergie advises us he is not the retiring kind.
