I assume you had read the thread and weren't here just to hop all over a post that you took way out of context.

I said we (united fans), others (people like slickrick who vote i think nearly every week) and then made a lil joke due to what had been said in the thread before.

Meh, no big deal.

Happy enough with the Draw from a city point of view. As for the red card, should have seen a straight red for the first challenge for sure. There have been many players sent off this season for lesser challenges. Should have the book chucked at him that lad, a complete injustice he will only be banned for 1 match.

That was the challenge where he played the ball? I thought a booking was on the harsh side.

But yeah, let's chuck the book at him.

Spurs impressed me.. the played at breakneck speed. United's defence though were savage.. especially Vidic, who was immense. Could have gone either way though as United looked dangerous on the break. Rooney still looks off the pace at the minute.

Seemed like a harsh sending off for Rafa, but not one you could really argue with in fairness.

Either way, seems like a fair enough result for both teams - neither of them were clinical enough going forward. A decent game to watch though, even at nil all.

Tell me how you can do that?

Cheers for that, your attitude is probably symptomatic of why there is **** all respect given towards officials these days.

No, they don't, but the referees don't make it easy for the players.

Ah no, United did well. Spurs won't get a better chance to beat them than that.

I think Spurs still lack a real top striker. Modric was excellent though.

Iago

meh.

Spurs probably deserved the win on the balance of the game, so I'll happily take the point.

We were fairly poor again and our luck is going to run out eventually. I think Rafael was unfortunate to be sent off, but them's the breaks.

Hopefully we actually kick into gear at some point, if we don't we'll be overtaken.

Yeh cause praising a player that reaches a milestone that no other player has done, like Giggs has achieved, is not worth mentioning ! ! :rolleyes:

Hearing positive things about United prob hurts you , yes ?

Ok,I'm not sure who you follow, think it's Arsenal, but would you not be angry at the ref for Rafael's sending off today if it happened to Fabregas for example.

Or how about if a player dived against ye and got a penalty.

Considering, that these bad decisions happen week in,week out, and the referees generally face no sort of punishment for any bad decisions.

Why should any player or any fan give respect to a referee who doesn't deserve and has never done anything to deserve it.

Hey Karma, how did it feel to see 2 top 4 teams going at it. Must be a big change from watching city afraid to come out of their own half and go toe to toe.

They should've just spent the two hours talking about how great he is tbh instead of showing the match. What an absolute hero.

Dave!

Vidic and Rafael were beasts today. Vidic MOTM though clearly.

TBH I think the reason is that other than the sending off there wasnt too much to talk about.

Very few actual chances, it was just Spurs playing in front of us - standing outside the door rather than knocking on it - and us repelling and looking to counter when the time arose.

So with that in mind they kinda focused on Giggsy's ridiculous milestone - fairly so imo

Spurs are in the top 4 now?

Oh and I must add also, Spurs played it very weird after Raf was sent off. I thought, with Fletch playing at RB and rooney then RW, that they would look to pick out Bale every time they were on the ball but he rarely saw it. Im sure Bale would have loved to have got at Fletch a lot more but instead they were coming to Lennon - maybe to get Evra sent of as well? :pac:

It was awful tbh but if we keep getting 3 pts and they get 1pt at the weekends I'm sure we will learn in time to live with it;)

Apart from Modric, all of their big threats - VDV, Bale, Lennon were quiet enough. As p larkin said they played in front of United for most of the game and didn't really make that many clear cut chances.

Finished fourth last year. I think that makes them top 4 for the rest of the season, at least.

Didnt you draw your previous game and United won?

united were poor enough again ,too many of our players just aren't on form.the 4 midfielders today were all fairly poor.I thought spurs could have done a bit more when united went a man down.

Lol conflicting opinions here. Which one is the party line?

(And Flah we were the best club in England for a period during the 70s which I know you're aware of.)

You'd think people would learn not to post in the match thread after the game is over. There is always some idiot who starts some stupid argument which generally isn't even related to the game.

Do I really need to explain it or am I giving you too much credit to know why we could be accused of wanting to live in the past?

I'll give you a clue - we were successful and you have a banner at your ground stating when it was.

All horribly off topic anyway so decent game, good result.
