really - looked like the original shot was on target to me. Granted the deflection was a massive help, but as far as i know the rules are if it is on target its given the striker of the ball.

Paddy Power have 500/1 for a Pompey win, or 350/1 for a draw, if anyone fancies a punt.

From what I saw from two different behind the goal angles it was definitely going wide right.

The commentators I have (not setanta) have also said it has been confirmed an OG. That was about 10mins after it happened. Initially they said Carrick themselves.

How to Tell Which Manager Was In The Brothel

- If he paid for an hour but wanted 65 minutes, it was Sir Alex Ferguson.

- If he paid the money but refused to pay the VAT, it was ‘Arry Redknapp.

- If the girl got undressed but he didn’t see it? It was Arsene Wenger.

- If he paid a huge sum of money but didn’t last long? It was Mark Hughes.

- If he got it up, but couldn’t stay up, it was Mick McCarthy.

- If he failed but insisted that next time will be good, it was Rafa Benitez.

- If he was amazing one minute and dreadful the next, it was Roberto Martinez.

- If he took the cheapest one and claimed he got value for money, it was David Moyes.

is it true, it just came on BBC's website, that Utd's second highest scorer this season is Mr. Own Goal?

surely that's a bit mad?

Its true:

Rooney - 23
OG - 9
Berba - 8
Owen - 7

Whoever has the fantasy football Evra was given an assist though I am convinced Nani got a touch with his head for the OG.

Anyone concur ?

I think Berbs is 2nd after Rooney with 9 goals. If the 3 goals today, were own goals, Mr Own Goal would be 3rd with 8 goals.


Edit - or what Redout said.

I've both, think Evra gets more for an assist so leave it with him.

Oh I thought you where moaning because they didn't give it to Nani for FF reasons. Yeah it was obv a Nani assist.

Brilliant win . .

Must really grind on ABU's that United are top . .

Despite having no first choice Central defence or goalkeeper for most of the season and after losing ronaldo + Tevez, its been a remarkable feat to be in the hunt for the title at this stage . .

Uniteds squad is so under rated by its own and rival fans its not funny . .

Who underrates the squad?
They have a fantastic squad with quality cover in every position and have been in the title hunt since day 1.

I seem to remember a comment that Rooney was only a slightly better version of Kuyt.

but I'll give the person the benefit of the doubt they were taking the piss.

Don't know if anyone has noticed but on the United site, they are crediting one of the OG's to Carrick. I presume that would be the official standing on it?

One of the interviewers after the game said to Carrick that the goal was officially given as an OG, so I guess not

He said he'll try appeal it

Only seen the one replay of it, was the shot on target ? Maybe Andy Gray will solve it on the last word tomorrow.

Dave!

I couldn't really make out tbh, even after watching a few replays. It certainly wasn't going in the direction it ended up going, if it was going in it was going into the bottom right corner
