I want to point out something. The more you run means the more tired you are right? So Wiley ran more, so means he is more tired, needed more rest bite. period

Tufty – name just some of those hundreds of occasions where we have done well because of the FA. Give us that reality check because I’m struggling to think of any occasions when the FA have done us a favour. Referees have done us a favour (just like all teams at the top – we certainly haven’t got anywhere near as many pens as Arsenal do) but I don’t recall the FA having time to ponder on a decision and treating us better than they have another team in that situation. Care to give us a like for like example?

The FA couldnt fine Owen for his comments, as he was not playing in England at the time they were made.
You cant use Keanes example as a case of ABU’ism, as oher have received punishment for similar things.
Whilst ABU’ism exists, there are comments made by people on here that take bias to the other extreme. Its all well and good saying the FA etc pick on Utd, but we can find hundreds of exampled when Utd have benefited.
A reality check is needed by some.

Another one that sorngs to mind unless it has already been mentioned.

Roy Keane getting £250,000 and was it a 4 game ban for mentioning the Whoreland tackle, which whoreland got up and played on from. When Micky Owen said the same thing in his book and ronnie Johnsen had to get carried off and with to Hosipital and was out for a number of weeks later a big fat zero. The Stepdad commenting in his book about wanting everything United dead including tea ladies. again nothing.

From my point of view, we should use the Ngog incident to take down the FA itself. It will show them that to respect them is not by campaign but the ref need to earn the respect.

brett1985: Post all the info you’ve accumulated so far, on this thread, matey.
I’d like to copy it and then try to keep tabs myself. I’ve often hoped someone would do something definitive like this.
