Ferguson: Slipping Standards and Refs to Blame

Sir Alex Ferguson has been charged by the FA after the half time spat last weekend with referee Mark Clattenburg. Kevin Davies was guilty of several dirty challenges on Patrice Evra in United’s recent clash with Bolton, but received nothing more than a yellow card. At half time, United were 1-0 down, and Ferguson launched […]

Not The Smartest Move - Queiroz Dig At Sporting President

Miguel Veloso has been linked with United over recent weeks as he has emerged as Sporting’s latest young talent. After previously signing Nani and Ronaldo from the Portugese club, it comes as no surprise that the papers claim we are after signing him.
Veloso’s agent, Paulo Barbosa, spoke out about the situation a fortnight ago, saying […]

Neville Fit For Dippers?

United have been lacking the leadership and passion on the field from Gary Neville since last March, and there are some games where this is desperately obvious. At times, United need to grind a result out and don’t quite have what it takes, that extra bit of fight Nev provides us with. Whilst Ryan Giggs […]

United Doomed Following Ronaldo’s Freekick

As Cristiano Ronaldo and Owen Hargreaves stood over the ball in preparation to take a freekick against Sporting Lisbon last night, I imagine I wasn’t the only red pleading for Hargreaves to take it. We’d seen two great freekicks from Hargreaves against Bolton at the weekend, one forcing a great save, and the other rolling […]

Isn’t It Time The FA Made An Example Of Someone Else?

Rio Ferdinand was bannedfrom football for eight months by the FA and fined £50,000 after he failed to show up at a drugs test. Ferdinand was one of the four United players selected at random to be tested for drugs in September 2003. The players were required to stay after training to take part, but […]

Feed The Scousers/Five Cantonas

It’s that time of year again. The nights are getting colder, the mornings are getting darker, and the little uns are compiling their letters to Father Christmas. It can mean only one thing. Christmas is on the way and the festive chants can get started. Our Cantona Christmas song started doing the rounds quite a […]

Tonight at Old Trafford: Sporting’s Cup Final

United fans are hated for their arrogance, so singing “three nil in your cup final” when beating a weaker opposition is never going to endear this country to us. However, United will have every right to sing such a chant tonight at Old Trafford, following the comments of Sporting’s Joao Moutinho.
“For us the match at […]

Which Striker Will Win Us The Group?

People questioned Sir Alex Ferguson’s decision to sell Ruud van Nistelrooy last summer, with the media dismissing any hopes of winning the title due to his departure. United went on to score eighty three goals, a tally which has been beaten on just three occasions since the origination of the Premiership (by ourselves and Arsenal. […]

United Are Just A Two Man Team

It is no surprise that United struggle without Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney, but it is a surprise that they struggle so much, writes Football365.com. I don’t like blaming injuries, and whilst I think there can be a lot of truth to that argument at times, I think it rarely gets you off the hook […]

No Surprises Here, Ferguson Charged

Sir Alex Ferguson watched the second half of our defeat against Bolton from the stands, after laying in to the useless Mark Clattenburg in the tunnel. Fergie deemed many of Bolton’s challenges unacceptable, only for Clattenburg to ignore the foul, or prefer a stern word over a booking. As I said after the match, Bolton […]
