Ronaldo basically started getting a bit huffy when it wasn't going his way. He also got very greedy a couple of times, which led him in to dead ends. Fergie was screaming at him from the touch lines.


Good as he is (and he is very good), he doesn't react well when it's not going his way IMO.

Ok, Keef, so what would you do in Fergie's position? Sell him straight away because he didn't pass the ball? I'm not sure what you want me to say. He could react by kicking lumps out of people like Joey Barton or disappearing from the game like Nicolas Anelka. Is it worse that he stuck his lip out a bit and tried to score on his own? I mean, give us break....

FA Cup Final tomorrow and I'm in two minds as to who I want to win. Hiddink to bow out with a trophy but having Drogba running around on a lap of disgrace like a spoilt brat, or David Moyes reminding the world from an open top bus that even though they can't fill Goodison Park they're actually the 'Peoples club'..


I think I'm going to cheer (very quietly) for Chelsea... maybe

Keef, footballers are human like the rest of us, warts and all, and yes Ronaldo can be a tw@t (is that what you wanted to hear?), there are even a few on this thread. I don't expect people to come on here praising Utd, but all we ever seem to get is cheap pops, it's easy to blank the juvenile delinquents amongst us, but I expect better from you.


To counter all this negativity, I'd like to say what a model professional Ryan Giggs has been, 11 English league titles, a feat unlikely to be equalled let alone bettered by anyone else, a credit to himself and his club, who took defeat on Wednesday with great dignity, a living legend!..I'm off with my rose tinted spectacles to enjoy the sun :)-D

got to be Everton for me just because they are the underdogs. Matt, isn't that whole 'people's club' thing just the same as people saying that people from Manchester only support City? It's a way that a less successful club in a city can try and gain some dignity?

Show me where I've had a pop at United (i can promise you that you both, SP especially, have had more pops at other teams than I have about anyone!)? Couldn't agree more about Giggs, and just think Ronaldo would earn a lot more respect if he behaved a bit more like that.


Victim complex or what!


Aaaanyway, hoping for a good game tomorrow. Not a huge fan of either team, but would be pleased to see either manager walk away with a trophy.

      Hand car wash

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      I can't answer your question. But on them generally: it's changed hands in the last year or so, I think. I paid £35 for interior and exterior and they did a crap job. I'll go to the one on Herne Hill (or just do it myself if health allows) next time.

      Shower enclosure installation

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags.

      Plumber recommendation - A.F.E Plumbing Services

      By yaymukund · Posted

      Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
