I would like to explain the reason of Old Trafford being called “The Theatre of Dreams” through a story.
Here it goes.
The team lost its first ever Competitive game 6-0 to Bolton Reserves.
It got relegated in its second season of competitive football.
In January 1902, it was asked to shut down because of debts. It didn’t. Instead it came back up and won the league, a FA Cup and a charity shield 2 years later. That is Manchester United.
From 1922 to 1940, United were relegated again and again and again. Faced with bankruptcy in 1931, United were on the verge of disaster again. Instead, the team held on and fought on. Finishing 2nd in 1947, 1948 and 1949, 1st in ’52, 55 and 56. It won the FA Cup in 1948 and became the first English team to play in Europe. It had to wait 41 years for glory. That is Manchester United.
Blood, toil, sweat and tears. That is Manchester United.
Our squad needs a reshuffle you say. Our tactics are outdated you say.

You laugh because you think we are down. You laugh because you think we are lost. We smile because we have seen it all. We smile because we know we will ALWAYS be back.
Glory from the darkest despair. That is Manchester United.
This is why I love this team. We may not be the best team in the world, we may not be the greatest of them all but we are the most inspirational team ever.
That is what separates us from others, we are a team to look on to.
Here we stand with 20 titles, better than anyone else. LFC fans, enjoy your rare moment of happiness thinking United will go down forever, you truly deserve this rare moment after all the success United have had for the past 21 years with trophies and victories.
I don’t know, when we’ll be back, maybe this year, maybe next, maybe in 5-10 years time.
And no, this is not blind faith, but it’s the BELIEF in Manchester United forever.
WIN.. LOSE.. DRAW.. The spirit of MANCHESTER UNITED Never Dies.

I think this is enough to prove why OLD TRAFFORD have been dubbed THE THEATRE OF DREAMS!!
