Yeah, that's what's happening. It's all a big anti City conspiracy.

****ing streaming.

I've yet to ever watch a football match with little or no interuption.

As a wise man once said, "Wooooah, we're half way there"

Green and gold till the club is sold.
It's a protest against the Glazers.

Green and Gold are the original colours of Newton Heath, which is what Man Utd used to be called back in the 1800s, when they were formed.

From the BBC: "German researchers say football referees forced to make a snap decision on a questionable foul are more likely to rule against the taller player in the challenge. Niels van Quaquebeke and Steffen Giessner, German scientists at Erasmus University's Rotterdam School of Management, have reached the conclusion after studying 123,844 fouls from seven Champions League and German Bundesliga campaigns along with the last three World Cups."

Bet they regret wasting all that time now

Scholes is now one tackle away from a Red Card which means he can't even act as a defensive shield, so he is now useless in both directions. Take him and Carrick off and bring on Berba and Valencia. So sick of Carricks lack of effort. It looks like he's not bothered. And people slag Berbatov off for looking lazy. :mad:

Xavi6

Actually we're not even half way there yet. Still about 55 minutes to go.

rizzee

Nani has impressed me in his last 3 matches. He's vastly improving, although still making simple mistakes. Sure, he's not as good as he thinks he is but heck, he's getting there. PLayed 2 or 3 good balls into the box. Bring on the second half, 2-0 United, Rooney & Giggs, with Giggs to be taken off after he scores! Great game

CR 7

I bet Peter Crouch part funded the study. Anyone who watches any amount of games at all could have come to the same conclusion though.

bullvine

What is the point of Michael Carrick?

Fletcher hasnt been his usual assertive self either!

The bitterness is strong in this one.

All you have to do is watch how Fellaini is treated.

Fro + being lanky = bad combo

CHD

Wow, denied a cracker

Washington Irving

Hopefully United will play more attacking this half and City score a few on the break
WHOA! Nice save there from Van Der Sar

Xavi6

Micah on the left! :eek:

MagicMarker

Ridiculous, off side but play on? What possible advantage is there in your own half?

redout

Bellamy

LoL

GSPfan

Carrick gave up trying to improve two summers ago. He went and got married, won the league and European cup and decided to put his feet up and decided he's made it.

Aidric

That's harsh tbf.

Xavi6

Yellow? Bit much. Ball was there.

I love Bellers

MagicMarker

That looked like a bottle?

*edit* Looked like a bottle on the floor, obvious wasn't what hit him!

Washington Irving

Oh oh :eek:. Few more arrests on the way

BELLAMY SMACKED WITH A BOTTLE

DOWN LIKE A HOUSE OF BRICKS

Mitch Connor

If United are to win this, Fergie needs to grow a set of balls.

disgraceful to be chucking something at Bellamy, but nothing will/should come of it.

Good to see the Utd fans covering themselves in glory!! :rolleyes:

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

amacachi

Given very, very poor in the build-up, should've been his ball.


Really classy stuff in the corner before that. :rolleyes:

Aidric

Scholesy! Good hold up from Giggs.

everdead.ie

Once scholes got it on the edge of the box I knew that was going in

titan18

That ball by Rooney was magic
