		<description>DIVEDIVEDIVE...is an arsehole fan.....who loves loitering about on utd sites...he&#039;s always around any news regarding utd....

No news and trophies to comment in arsehole land...so he hangs around creating a tink here...in the champions of england and europe forums and sites...

And rooney did even touch arteta...he pulled out of the challenge seconds before...and all that was left was a dangling leg. No way a yellow

And yes neville may have got the ball....but the facts are he also got rons knee....and why go in sooooo hard and recklessly when ronaldo didnt have control of the ball...wasnt standing...was getting to his feet slowly. Thats what made it worse</description>

		<description>Rooney should have been sent off!! What the fuck for???  He got booked for a non foul that every pundit has said wasn&#039;t a foul.  Artita rolled about and got Rooney booked.  The Neville foul was a great tackle when you see it in slowmo.  On the day it looked a leg breaker.  divedivedive wonderful comment from the English school of diving.  Fuck off back to Arsenal.  As for kissing the badge then Felamini should have been sent off as well he kissed his badge after scoring.</description>

		<description>We all suffer from bad decisions, its part of the game. But when rednose gets a bad decision he goes apeshit. Rooney should been given a second yellow for inciting the crowd but when does that thug ever get a second yellow, never, despite all the cheating and dissent he has shown to refs and other players. How long are you going to keep crying about the tackle on ronaldo by neville, a tackle that he learnt from roy keane at old trafford. Ronaldo deserves tackles like that every game until he stops fucking diving and rolling round like a baby.</description>

		<description>Jake, Sir Alex Ferguson has the best team in the world (win, lose, or draw). Alan Wiley let the game get out of control, I thought it was just a matter of time before someone got really hurt. The Ronaldo foul could have been avoided if wiley would have called a foul against phil neville for a foul against Evra just seconds before. As I said once before, a committee consisting of the FA, the Refs, and Representatives from all EPL teams should formed to handle these situations. Conspiracy theories are crazy. I cant believe that people still think that only one man was responsible for Kennedy&#039;s death-that to me is a conspiracy.</description>

		<description>This is ridiculous, Ferguson&#039;s attacks on the referees are a reactionary defence mechanism. When other manager&#039;s look at their players and sigh, Ferguson can&#039;t do this because he rightly believes he has the best team in the world but even the best switch off and behind the scenes Ferguson no doubt lets the players know. The media is not the medium for hammering the players, so why not the ref and as for Terry&#039;s card, he&#039;s a muppet with a turning circle of a double decker bus but it was a bit harsh and it wasn&#039;t a rugby tackle. There is no bias against United, it&#039;s ridiculous to suggest otherwise, it&#039;s just that with the stature of united and the media attention it often appears that way. If anything, I would suggest it is probably harder for refs to give decisions against us some times because of the circus that inevitably follows a negative decision, factor in the 70,000 odd crowd at old trafford and that we are supposed to win every game and you can imagine that the human brain would edge on the side of placating all these caveats. The circus that follows a positive decison for us is far easier for refs than the always well-scrutinised Ferguson tirade after a negative one. Refs make bad decisions in all matches, not just ours but sometimes we&#039;d rather think it was a refereeing conspiracy that caused our 1-1 draws and not the fact the players just switched off. ROM writes good artcles but this isn&#039;t one, can&#039;t we be different and just have United websites that are reasonable and step away from the irrationality akin to someone who believes in the 9/11 conspiracy theories...?</description>
