Of course that 49 game stretch would have been 50, if Wayne Rooney had not done his disgraceful dive to cheat United to a penalty. A dive so bad that even Ronaldo would have blushed. One of the most diabolical decisions in any given season was that penalty.


Let's face it when United won the treble they were extremely lucky. We can talk about Liverpool being lucky in Istanbul due to be being 3-0 down at half time when in the end they fought back and deserved their win... but United in 1999, 2 corner kicks in injury time against a dominant Bayern Munich, oh puuurrlease...


Chuck in the all the diving over the years, snarling, kicking, conning referees, United would not have achieved half of what they did if the Referees in this country had any bottle... and that's a FACT!

I've no axe to grind, in fact, if I had to choose I'd like Arsenal to have won out of the big teams...but Man U are a class above the rest of you 'big boys' so why don't you pick up your toys..it really sounds sour grapes from big teams moaning about luck and refs cheating etc.... try being fans of sides who don't have you 'luck' and bias decisions as a matter of course....

What chance United slip up at Newcastle tonight.. is it possible the Geordies (a club I've always admired for their winning mentality, team work and resolute defence), can pull off a shock!? Is it possible Ferguson will take pity on Newcastle and only send out 8 players to make it a competitive game before putting Van Der Saar back in goal for the 2nd half instead of Rio!?


It's twenty years ago almost to the day that Liverpool trailed Arsenal by 19 points and swung it 22 points before that final, fateful night at Anfield when ... well you all know what happend ...


March 1st, 1989, Liverpool started the ball rolling with an unconvincing 2-0 win over Charlton at Anfield ... does this ring any bells for anyone!? Title charge, not over yet!?

I can't see Mancs slipping up against the geordies. As I've said before the title is there's to lose. Liverpool and Chelski haven't got a prayer. When a bookie pays out on Mancs winning title ( yes I know they got it wrong once before) you can rest assured they know what they are doing.

Now we are getting to the true crux of a football argument...who has the ugliest players! :))


I am of the firm opinion that Fergie, having had his fingers burnt by 'Brylcream Boy' Beckham, now has a policy to sign players that only a mother could love.

Which bookie has paid out Atila - is it Paddy Power?

    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous.
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
    • if I think of Corbyn dealing with a global pandemic (a lot of his supporters and some of his family come from the woo end of the spectrum - his brother is a proper anti-vax nut), then the  invasion of Ukraine (Corbyn long record of not exactly condemning Putin even as he killed people on British soil and many other matters, I  really do shudder
