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?

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance). 
    • Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft.
