PFA: Rooney Punishment Totally Disproportionate

Professional Footballers’ Association deputy chief executive, Bobby Barnes, has slammed the FA’s decision to ban Wayne Rooney for two games because he swore after scoring a hattrick.

“It is always talked about the money these type of players earn, but it is not about the money, it is about not having the success, not living up to the extraordinary high expectations, it is almost a fear of failure,” said Barnes. “That is why it was such a release of pressure, enormous pressures on this young man’s shoulders over a whole year. Obviously it was not an ideal way to react, but while I would never condone it, I can understand it, and a two-match ban is totally disproportionate. It is unprecedented that the FA has taken action after a player has said something into a TV camera. This is totally different to what Didier Drogba did in the Champions League. He followed the referee, and was sorry for his actions afterwards. Wayne has not been disrespectful to any official or opponent, and I feel there has been a lot of discussion about what might happen next season. But the game needs to set parameters so everyone knows where they stand: for example, if you take your shirt off, you know you will be booked. There is no precedent for this, and Rooney needs to be treated differently. I would suggest a severe reprimand and suspended sentence, but surely not a two-game ban when he was clearly not intending to cause offense and apologised immediately afterwards. No one is saying what he did was right, I am not, but let’s give Wayne Rooney a little bit of understanding.”

    Wtf? Everyone is on our side?

    Is the world ending?

  2. Jamaica Red Devil says:

    I figure they’ve gotten word about us calling them ABUs so they are now coming to our defense, so in the future when they go at us, they won’t seem unfair or ABU…LOL

  3. Jeet says:

    This is their inception to our seige mentality…sorry, it still doesnt work. What? Fucking what?

  4. otonis says:

    Is anyone listening to these cunts on talksport?

  5. MalteseMancunian says:

    After Bobby saying this Wazza should obviously NOT accept the ban.There are no rules talking about the kind of incident he was part of and also why should Wayne accept the ban in an F.A cup match if the incident happened during a league game.

  6. Red Typhoon says:

    What?? Fucking Whaat?? Fucking Hell!!! Unbelievable..LOL

  7. bruce thomas says:

    I hope Wazza withrdraws from future England duty — and Rio.

    FA = Fucking Arseholes

  8. james says:

    You tell em Bobby.

    Rooney hasn’t had a great year, but since the amazing over head kick against shiteh he has gone from strength to strength.

    He must be feeling that he is getting his spark back.

    I don’t think he should have been banned, maybe repremanded by the club or even fined but banned? FUCKING WHAT? WHAT! He didn’t swear at anyone in particular and he wasn’t criticising the obviously poor refereeing.

    It feels at the moment that every time Man utd do something wrong we are getting punished quite harshly, and I don’t like it, in fact IM GONNA TELL MY FUCKING DAD!

  9. Costas says:

    See how much sense this makes?

    Unless you are the FA of course…

  10. rocketronny says:

    Anyone hear the Patrick Barclay interview on talksport this arvo?

    Possibly the most bias, anti-utd stance i have heard. Starting talking about Rooney and that it should be 4 game ban and then started slagging SAF off and comparing him to the “saint” Ancelotti.

    If they ever let us respond I would love to knock them down a peg or 2. As we know these pricks get an platform to air their views, we do not get that opportunity.

    An interview to make you throw the radio out of the window if ever there was 1.

  11. james says:

    …………………..my Dad is kind of a big deal!

  12. Stephen says:

    Lets just get it straight, he is being made an example of just like Rio was was his ridiculas 8 month drugs ban The FA seem to think it looks good to punish United as the press jump on anything the club does, we are certainly not perfect but why are all our faults highlighted when players and managers from other clubs are not? The answer it the typical English mentality of jelousy, we hate anyone who wins we love loosers in this Country hence which is an embarrassment.

  13. Real red devil says:

    I hate daily ail more and more everyday.I have never seen such a bad and biased journalism anywhere.They want us to fail and they want to demoralise us in any way they can.But i am sure they will be queueing to get an interview of Rooney.I could only hope that he would tell all the Abu media to fuck off at that time…I am sure SAF will be taking all this in his mind .He will show the the power of manchester united when the right time comes till then enjoy u cunts……..

  14. willierednut says:

    Bobby Barnes is ok, but Nicky Barnes? Don’t like him.

  15. ja says:

    AS IF THE WHOLE WORLD IS AGAINST MAN UTD,AS IF THE FA BOARD IS COMPOSED OF ALL LIVERPOOL FANS,THESE ARE WHAT KIND OF WORDS NEED TO BE USED AGAINST THE FA.THE FA HAS SHOWN BY THEIR EXCESSIVE ACTIONS AGAINST MAN UTD ,HOW MUTCH THEY HATE ,ENVY,AND ARE JEALOUS OF MAN UTD.THEY ARE DOING EVERY THING TO STOP MAN UTD TO WIN THE 19TH LEAGUE TITLE.BUT YOU CANNOT CHANGE THE WISH OF GOD.MAN UTD WILL WIN THE TITLE AND WILL SMACK SAME ON THE FACES OF MEMBERS FORMING PART OF THE FA BOARD.WATCH MY WORDS….

  16. gerkeo says:

    @willierednut: or john barnes?

  17. Stephen says:

    John Barnes, I can’t stand him!

  18. Nesh Eric says:

    What? Fucking What? Rooney’s ban plus Nani missing out on the PFA list six! he should have made it in alist of 1 not even six! this is What? Fucking What? Ludicrous….

  19. willierednut says:

    Johnny Barnes was a gifted player, but he played for the vermin.

  20. Tasty Geezer says:

    What Fucking What . . .

    There’s only What Fucking What . . .

    What Fucking Whaaaaaaaat . . .

    There’s only What Fucking Whaaaat.

    What Fucking What . . .

  21. T. says:

    Starting to get suspicious about all those people and journalists starting to take our side. Is this yet another trick from the fucking what FA???
    Where are the ABU:s now? They might realize that they have to suspend every englishspeaking player in the league for two games, every other 2 games.

  22. Stephen says:

    willierednut , He was but did fuck all at International level pal.

  23. dj decks luthor says:

    the logic people in the game are on rooneys side,

    the problem is all the ABU’s, dippers and supporters of le ‘arse that are ranting on blogs, newspapers and football websites that got the FA to ban rooney.

    pathetic attempt of the FArce to please the underbelly of society

  24. gerkeo says:

    @stephen Cantona was poor at international too

  25. Stephen says:

    20 goals in 45 games is bad is it? Especially considering how he was treated by the French FA I would say that was good.

  26. shubhangmanred says:

    Ok people, Rooney did train! He was
    just held out when the cuntmen
    came for 15 minutes. That ’s
    something that SAF would have
    loved to do.

  27. RLT says:

    Fergie gets suspended for NOT doing interviews…..Rooney then gets suspended for giving the on-field camera exactly what the producers and fans want…… raw passion and up-close, real game experience.

    Bloody entrapment those on-field cameras! The producers should be backing Rooney (=players) against the FA here.

    FA: “Nice goal son, but can you act like you don’t really care?”
    Rooney, fans & TV co: “What?! Fucking what?!

  28. concentration camps for ABU's says:

    the fa are a joooke
    the fa are a jooooooooooooke
    were man utd
    what!? fuckin what!?

  29. wiuru says:

    1. Is anyone here surprised by the FA’s action ?
    2. I think Sky sports carry some responsability in this to !

  30. Vilhelm28 says:

    Finally the PFA are acting, about time.

  31. Dazbomber says:

    On mutv last night a caller said a Fullham player was swearing .No action has Bean taken against him,I did not get his name United must use this in there defence

  32. RedAlert260599 says:

    Next time we score the players should do a quick hand-shake and walk back to the halfway line – like Bobby Charlton use to. Never mind all this celebration – obviously nobody wants to see passion – especially if its United. No passion = no game and no audience. Twats the lot of em. And that goes for you too Glazer!

  33. Dazbomber says:

    Are the F A saying some swearing is ok . Or we will just fuck Rooney and United

  34. wayne says:

    ok lets move on we all know the fa are cunts and abu’s but in the big picture its not going to make much difference to utd its highly unlikely rooney would have played against fulham and i have the upmost confidence in berba and hernandez.if anything it’ll turn out to be a good thing because rooney will be well pumped and pissed off tomorrow against the rentboys

  35. rnicolas says:

    Rooney should retire from the England team as a protest to his ban, as Rio should have done years ago when they banned him for months due to him “forgetting to take a test”.
    Fuckin Arseholes need to put themselfs into the limelight by giving United the biggest bans ever (Eric, Rio, Sir Alex, etc…)
    Please Rooney, they need you more than you need them.

  36. ManchesterMike says:

    Chelskis tomorrow, boys! Get’em Roo!

    Totally agree,check out Gordon Taylors comments on skysports page,he is basically saying if FA are going to change their criteria for punishments,notify clubs and players first.

    What?FuckingWhat?

    Get a load of this fellas. Very interesting, to say the least.

  40. Zibbie says:

    Disproportionate, great word.
    Hey all you Regulators if you want a laugh a chuckle or a wtf. Go see 175 th post on the rap up artical of the Hammers game where the picture of Chicha and Rooney with there arms around each other.

  41. Zelh says:

    willie – show the person who has the nuts to tell him he’s to old :)

  42. Zibbie says:

    Willie nice story I saw a similar one on 442 and it said 2 to 3 years and when Jose’s Real contract is up then he might become the gaffer then. He is already doing damage control saying he can develop young talent witch is so stocked and piled up and getting more of at Man Utd. This has been said to be his only weakness?

  43. Stephen says:

    Anyone but Mourinho please….

  44. Zibbie says:

    @ Wayne LOL!!!! nice

  45. willierednut says:

    I think StR will be posting a thread on Fergie’s comments lads. I’m surprised the manager has come out and said these things about Mourinho now. He also said, Chelsea were right to spend 50 million on Torres? Taking the piss? lol.

  46. CedarsDevil says:

    Just called into a show, the talk of course not about football but about Rooney swearing (yawn)

    ‘You should not swear into the camera’ was discussed at length, and now a days you have cameras and microphones all over the pitch….

    My question to the special guest Andy aka dick head Townsend ‘whats the difference between swearing into the camera and actually being caught by one doing so’

    Que the silence in the studio

  47. Stephen says:

    Also it is Ok for 25,000 to scream abuse at you for 90mins, then you utter one swear word and the Country turns into the most sensitive place on Earth.

  48. Zibbie says:

    Torres still since his knee trouble has never looked the same menacing threat. Speed is such a large factor of his game as confidence is for anything done well. It looks he lacks both
    Rooney true talent is he is a footballer first a striker second with speed being just a part of what he brings to the team. Many think his legacy will be made in the hole and as Scholesy has done he can go from a 9 to a 10 to the hole striker to Left wing to CAM to CDM and emergency left back. As his career progresses he can play many roles. Torres is a 50 million pound striker with one position to play in the Chelski system.
    GLORY GLORY MAN UTD!!!!!!!!!!! KICK THE RENT BOYS ASS!!!!!!!!!
    GO ROONEY GET A BRACE GET IN THEIR FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  49. NotoriousRedDevil says:

    The PFA should have spoken straight after the game not wait till today. Also don’t we have until 6pm to appeal the ban tonight. Leaving it late aren’t we because I’ve not heard anything.

  50. FletchTHEMAN says:

    SAF gave an interview talking about his future. Happy to stay because he is fit, but seems open to going if the club thought best. AKA, if another manager was available. Hmmmm.
    Not much in it really. But seems to suggest he might go down hill if he didn’t have much to do. I hope he considers the FA Chair, he could definitely find some china to rattle around there!

  51. parryheid says:

    Reckon Harry Hypocrite the Hotspur mans team is for a right leathering Tonight minimum Three with no reply,Milan will probably win their game but Schalke will score tight 2-1 to Milan which will leave their coats on a shaky peg,

  52. StatesideAussie says:

    Fletch … I saw that report (in a different paper). I thought the most interesting part of it was his comment about one Jose Mourinho:

    “Jose is a great friend of mine. We have spoken many times about his future and I understand his wish to return to England because here a coach has more freedom than in Spain, without the constant following of the media and radio. But it’s difficult for me to say when my position will be available.”

    Now there’s some food for thought…

  53. CedarsDevil says:

    Do not care for either team tbh, but for some reason I am hoping that Spurs get ass whipped tonight.. I am sick and tired of hearing about how fucking great they are, best squad in the league, Bale and all the other bull shit

  54. Doghouse says:

    There’s a new media narrative building about Rooney, they are trying to paint him as the outsider, the pariah. You can read the undercurrent of it in every story about him, from the stories about his supposed anger when he scored (rather than joy, despite his joy being obvious as well) to those about his being some how troubled.

    It’s all building of course to the familiar media tale of redemption, they want Rooney to come good for England, but first they have to knock him down. First he has to conform. First he has to say he loves Big Brother. Then he can be the media darling again. His defiance, his refusal to play by their rules, offends them.

    They were the same with Cantona and with also, always, with Ferguson. They want to judge these men because they cannot get them to conform. Why can’t Manchester United finish fourth like they were supposed to? Why does Ferguson keep building successful teams, why can’t he have a mare so the press can hound him out? Why is Old Trafford always full? They hate us because we Do What We Want. Not what they want.

    The ABU Media hate United because United make them look stupid. United show the media and the FA for the incompetent bias twats they are. And United do this, and they still win. And what fucks them off is we’re not defiant underdogs, battling relegation and clinging on by the skin of our teeth, we’re huge. We’re better than everybody else. We don’t lie down and We Will Never Die. And they hate it. We are a colossal testament to our own superiority as a football club over the current media darlings. They keep hyping all these different teams to take our crown and it never happens. The Red Devils march on, leaving the media embarrassed, humiliated, impotent.

    And that is why they hate us. And we’re going to win the league anyway.

  55. mattbw7 says:

    Somethibns been bugging me since the incident, why did Rooney say “What fucking what” does it not sound like a challenge or reply to a question? consider this those steadi cams have a bloke to assist the camera man so he doesn’t fall when walking backwards etc, now they will be in constant contact with the director and as such there will be dialogue and the reason you can’t hear it all the time will be two things, one the mike will not always be live and two it will be a directional mike in that its designed to pick up whats going on where the camera is pointing for obvious reasons.

    I suspect though I have no evidence that either the camera man or the spotter under direction have tried to get Rooneys attention to do one of those media friendly kiss the camera bollocks, to which our Wayne has responded in his best working class scouse, “what fucking what”

    Any takers?

  56. CedarsDevil says:

    Doghouse

    Love your posts mate… Well said buddy

  57. smartalex says:

    Nice one CedarsDevil! Bet you put Townsend’s big nose right out of joint!

  58. smartalex says:

    Great comment Doghouse at 16:02

  59. CedarsDevil says:

    smartalex, how are you my friend?

    That big nosed fuck face went silent for a few seconds after my question…. The whole studio seemed to have gone into panic mode….. Red Devil driving the ABU’s nuts

    Love it

  60. ManchesterMike says:

    lots of speculation about Jose coming to OT, and to be honest, i just don’t see it, BUT i did hear on a news show some bloke runnin spoutin his mouth off about Ronaldo comin with Jose if it happened three or four years down the road… what do you guys think of that? anyone else willing to have him back for the backend of his stardom? obviously we dont need him, with Nani and Valencia, but it’s an interesting thought

  61. Decks Luthor says:

    People don’t realise just how much power the media have. They decided to make this a story in the same weekend that Hammers fans racially abused their own players families, but noone is talking about that are they, because the media have given it little attention

    They hype people up when they want and then in a second knock them down. Theyve done it to Beckham, Cantona, currently to Rooney and their in the process of doing it to Jack Wilshere. IF, God forbid Arsenal ever become successful, they’ll go after Wilshere the second he does anything bad.

    Its the reason they lick Gerrards hole after years of diving and elbowing and assaults in nightclubs, because the dippers aren’t successful its not that large a drop if they bring Gerrard down.

    The worrying thing is the control they seem to have over the FA, it was media pressure that got them to ban a player for swearing for the first time in their 148 year history. Thats scary power, and part of the reason that fifa didnt want to bring the world cup here (obv theyre prone to handouts from oligarchs as well)

  62. Doghouse says:

    Ronaldo back? In a heartbeat. Ronnie is a red. But not paying what we sold him for, no way. :)

  63. Simmo says:

    Yeah, I believe it’s generally accepted that Rooney was relying to a question asked by the cameraman. Utd & Rooney have been getting a real kicking from the self important morons at Talksport since the incident! Can there be a more disgusting collection of Tossers anywhere?

  64. smartalex says:

    I am well CedarsDevil, thanks. Are you well? I expect you loved “the sounds of silence”

    mattbw7, I agree that the camera-team were communicating with Wayne, for at least 15 seconds prior to Rooney’s outburst.

  65. falsafa says:

    Off topic but who the fuck is Seamus Coleman?

    WHAT? FUCKING WHAT?

  66. CedarsDevil says:

    Simmo

    The FA?

  67. Stephen says:

    Nah Ronaldo will not be coming back, he behaved like a prick with his slave bollox. He is not a red he wanted to paly for his dream club Real, we need to realise we were just a notch on his footballing bedpost.

  68. St Scholes OF Salford says:

    was listening to Talk Sport this morning on the way to work, and some sports journo Paddy something was on air giving his views about the incident. All he kept going on about was how awful it is that Rooney was swearing infront of children and in any other situation he wouldve been arrested.
    He then went on to say that he hopes we do appeal the punishment because he hopes that Rooney gets a 4 game ban instead.

    I had to turn the radio off because i was fuming so much. Was literally shouting at the radio calling old Paddy all kinds of names.

  69. willierednut says:

    Patrick Barclay. He’s a Wenger lover.

    I am great smartalex….

    Will be missing the weekend action and be away from any internet activity. Its my niece’s wedding and in these parts we tend to go nuts over such events

    What? Fucking What? Having that printed on a t shirt

  71. willierednut says:

    Stephen – Notches on his bedpost? I would say, there’s a few lol.

  72. Simmo says:

    Lol. Your right my friend! The FA are right up there!

  73. Stephen says:

    Barclay is a smug cunt, but he just written decent bio of Fergie.

  74. mattbw7 says:

    It was Paddy Barclay of The Times believe it or not, I thought they did well to let him continue with his diatribe as he just sounded like that woman out of The Simpsons, “think of the children” deary me, I used to have respect for him but to hear an experienced journalist at The Times no less, repeat the same thing at least 6 times was embarrassing for him, I hope he listens back to it.

  75. Stephen says:

    Wilie, Funny pal his new bird is fucking lovely!!

    Your niece is getting United this weekend? Tremendous CedarsDevil!
    Please, give her the Republik’s best wishes! Have a great celebration!

  78. Stephen says:

    Probably true mate, but his book was spretty good. I can’t stand the prick especially as he hoses off Wenger at any given opportunity.

  79. willierednut says:

    Sir Alex’s press conference was at Lords cricket ground. Anyone know why, because I’m stumped?

  80. CedarsDevil says:

    Cheers my friend, knowing how these things go over here I would probably remember non of it! hahaha

    Fucking Lebanese, they are nuts!

  81. mattbw7 says:

    I meant the book, I got it as a gift, its just substandard Michael Crick.

  82. xol says:

    “We’ve submitted our case,” revealed the manager on the Rooney case. Wayne missed training with a bruise on the shin but should be fine for Stamford Bridge.

  83. StatesideAussie says:

    matt @ 16.07 … I was wondering about that too. It definitely comes across as a response to “something” … not something general, but something specific and immediate, and designed to provoke a response.

  84. Stephen says:

    Agreed, but any book about Fergie for me is a decent read. Not as good as his own, but certainly passed the time and saved me speaking to the wife on holiday.

  85. CedarsDevil says:

    Sir Alex Ferguson …. What a MAN. What a PERSON, what a LEGEND

    Harry, go and fuck yourself

  86. ManchesterMike says:

    Just another show of class for SAF in an interview with the US news (even though i disagree and think that Torres for $50mil was terrible decision)

    http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/902919/sir-alex-ferguson-stands-up-for-carlo-ancelotti-and-torres?cc=5901

    not much ABU sensationalism coming from the papers across the pond because many Americans still don’t have the same passion for the game, but at least it keeps all the bullshit out of the papers… i read some good articles on the regular from here…

  87. mikekelly12 says:

    Rooney has accepted the charge but appealed the severity of the 2 game ban!

  90. Ryandunny says:

    http://ryandunny.wordpress.com/2011/04/05/an-absolute-farce/

    Just a small reaction to the PFA awards if anyone wants to take a look…

    Seems like deja vu from last year Rooney going to be out for a couple of games around the same time… big difference this season is an inform Berbatov and Hernandez

  91. Doghouse says:

    I wouldn’t dismiss the Torres signing just yet. I’m sure a lot of us dismissed the Drogba signing too (I know I did) but he came in at a difficult time and he had a bad start, particularly as Sideshow Bob overshadowed him. He’s not somebody to discount, particularly if the Gaffer rates him.

    Course it could just be mind games. You never know with the Maestro. He’s a one man good cop bad cop routine.

  92. smartalex says:

    killing myself laughing at the one man police band!

  93. CedarsDevil says:

    sound of silence

  94. byron1970 says:

    With Rooney appealing against his punishment, in a normal world and because there has been no precedent for this I would expect the FA to reduce the ban to at least one game and maybe even let him off with a suspended sentence, warning, and a fine. Of course we all know we don’t live in the same world as other clubs when it comes to the FA’s treatment of United so in 24 hrs time we’ll most likely all be back on here expressing or rage and the predictability of the ban being increased to 3 games. They’ve made such a farce of this whole incident that I will be expecting nothing less.

  95. slim says:

    first of 50 million for torres may be steep but if he wanted to come here i think SAF could have sanctioned it. Fact is ladyboy is a very good striker, wasted his time going to looserpool and may be doing the same at chelseas

    I hope madrid tear tottenham hotpants a new one but my head keeps telling me madrid are under the cosh at the moment especailly since ronaldo’s not as fit and they looking about desperately for strikers even with adebayor in the squad. There’s something not quite right with los blancos and i think harry’s men could do some damage.
    Come on Ronnie you owe us big time, i don’t think i’ll be able to stand the drivel if harry’s boy beat madrid

  96. CedarsDevil says:

    Open your heart…. I am coming home

  97. willierednut says:

    I think United have a chance of getting the ban reduced to one game, because there’s no precedent. Arsenal were successful appealing Eduardo’s ban, for diving, because there was no precedent. That’s what I’m hoping for, anyway. United know the risk involved, so they must think they have a chance.

  98. billybowlegs says:

    @Fullard
    I been having the same feeling all week mate,just call it gut,but I think all this stuff recently is gonna fire us up,i pity chelsea tomorrow I think they`re in for one hell of a dicking off the countries finest,can`t wait,no doubt I`ll be too comatosed to really make any sense of it all when we are leathering the shite out of them cunts….I think I can hear Fergie now callin the shots and instilling the hatred into the United players….if I was chelsea….I would be very afraid….VERY afraid…

  99. mikekelly12 says:

    I’m hoping the FA will realise just how fucking stupid they have been and realise that trying to uphold this ban and all subsequent bans that will have to follow, will lead them to reduce the punishment to a fine and a suspended one match ban.

  100. Corea says:

    willierednut – surely Rooney has every chance of reducing it to one game but i sincerely thought FA are smart and honest enough to give him a fine AT MOST. Ridiculous to be honest. Every neutral knows it.

    Hope it’s one game but i am confident we will do just fine on the 2 games without him Citeh included.
    But i am sure he wants to play in the cup semi and fuck citeh over.

  101. CedarsDevil says:

    Just asked Gareth Southgate ‘ Have you ever sworn in a game?’ He said yes

    Next question ‘ So should you only be punished for swearing into a camera?’

    Answer ‘yes’

    Conclusion, why the fuck am I alive

  102. Corea says:

    And if you look a bit more carefully at the moment (i watched only once during the game itself) he did it in the heart of the moment but he didn’t do it instantly. He saw the cameraman who approached him and did what he did after some hesitation. He was clearly hesitating, he was so emotional but finally he surrendered and let the words flow from his mouth. Really emotional moment.
    FA are hypocrites because they don’t know what is to endure all this pressure these days and all the eyes watching every step.

  103. willierednut says:

    Anyone seen Andy Townsend? Try the gay mans choir.

    WOW. Even the PFA is supporting us? incredible. This however does not change ANYTHING. it’s still us against the ABU world. You are trying to hack into our siege mentality. NOT GONNA HAPPEN!!!!. LEAGUE IS OURS!!! end of.

  105. CedarsDevil says:

    Willie

    Why on earth would you mention ‘his’ name mate? spoiling my evening are you?

  106. Kings says:

    Corea – That City supporting bastard Bernstein will use his powers to make sure that Rooney remains banned for the semi-final. IF anything he will increase the ban, because he is a fucking cunt.

  107. Costas says:

    You know, among all this outrge from neutrals, maybe the FA will come to their senses. Either way, I think this means that Rooney will be allowed to play against City? That’s bad news for them.

    Was just reading Fergie’s comments. Our defensive options look better now. No mention of Edwin, so he should be ok. The game comes too soon for Ando though. Here’s the team I see for tomorrow:

    VDS – Rafael, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra – Valencia, Carrick, Scholes, Park, Nani – Rooney

    Rio is back and I think he will get the nod ahead of Smalling here. Just for his experience.

  108. RooneysMiddleFinger says:

    Evening lads

    I was wondering if we could fight against the FA in a proper court with proper judges, and proper barristers. I think this is getting beyond the limits of simple football issues, with all the money and contracts involved.

    I’d love to hear the opinion of anyone of you, who has any insight to this matter.

    Cheers

    P.S
    I hope spurs win tonight (and we get them in the final LOL)

  109. MyCowIsTheBest says:

    After two days, i still cannot find the word to describe the FA. Maybe we should put the FA into the dictionary, declare it as a word that means shameless act of indescribable farce that makes you sick even the thought of it.

    The dream would be for Rooney to announce his quit from any international football under the FA, followed by the every England player at our club.

  110. willierednut says:

    Cedars – It had to be done. :lol:

  111. FletchTHEMAN says:

    Costas, Was just reading Fergies comments as well. In addition to Rafael and Rio, he said Evans would available as well, back from his suspension. This is very good timing for the run of games we have coming. Sure would like to see O’Shea and Brown come into the picture, but we will have to patient.
    I think Edwin was only out as a precaution and because of the CL game in midweek. PIG filled in very well on the weekend which has got to give everyone a lot of confidence. Bring on the chavs!

  112. parryheid says:

    To me the important thing is the appeal reject it if they will and increase No matter.But thank Christ a line is being drawn and the FA minions would be well advised to pay heed.

  113. Zelh says:

    spurs looked really tired against wigan.
    will be interesting to see what they do tonight.

  114. CedarsDevil says:

    Fair enough Willie …. No swearing here

    I do hope ( And I disagree with some of my United mates) that Real beat Harry’s Spurs tonight

  115. FletchTHEMAN says:

    Costas, Your comment about outrage among the neutrals? Think it has no effect on those lads. It is like the puritans, only care about folks in agreement. Sad to say, but there seem to be far more in favor of a ban than not. Hate to say it, but WR10 needs to develop a completely different class if he ever wants to move into the next level. Otherwise this type of thing is just going to grow and grow. I will support him as a United player. Jesus wept, the boy is as thick as a brick.

  116. willierednut says:

    Costas – Maybe swap Anderson, for Scholes and as much as I’d love Rio to start, I’m not sure he will. I would though. Smalling has been a Godsend, while Rio’s been injured, but the latter’s composure on the ball, is second to none. Particularly in games, like this one. High intensity in all that.

  117. willierednut says:

    Cedars – You swear away friend. Give big nose and even bigger nose, a piece of your furious Red Devil mind!

  118. shubhangmanred says:

    @costas You know which team you’ve posted?
    A winning team. That’s probably the strongest team we can field(tactically).
    And then we have the Mexican gunslinger and Godfather on the bench. Not to forget Ryan Giggs(sponsored by Duracell).
    All game changers. All genii in their own right.
    Bring on the rentboys!

  119. Corea says:

    FletchTHEMAN – sensible words but who is the intelligent player nowadays ? Who is an intelligent sportsman ? I don’t think Rooney is thick, he is just Wayne Rooney from Everton.

  120. CedarsDevil says:

    Green Light given

    FUCK OFF ANDY you prick

  121. willierednut says:

    Corea – True that.

  122. willierednut says:

    Off to watch the game lads. Not too fussed who wins, but Ronnie is always an interesting player to watch. Fancy a score draw.

  123. Zelh says:

    balotelli is intelligent.
    who else can entertain millions with a bib? :lol:

  124. RedBlood says:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLo6ssAL0e0
    Extended highlights of our youth game Academy vs Sunderland (Home) 2-0 – 30/03/2011.Terrific football by the young reds with new kids and I must say Mats Daehli looks pretty good and so did Tom Lawrence.These two in particular along with Morrison (no surprise) were a class apart.Very good Viewing.

  125. Corea says:

    I don’t pray Cristiano comes back to our club one day. But every time Real fucks up there is the better chance for him to come back and keep that club from Madrid in there hole. So Hotspur for me in this tie.
    And i like little player called Marcelo. Don’t think though he is anywhere near our Da Silva twins. ;) Viva Da Silvas !

  126. King Eric says:

    Doghouse. Belter of a post at two min past four mate. Superb.

    Stephen. Ha. Saved you talking to the wife on holiday! Nice one mate. I know the feeling.

    Yeah heard that wenger sympathiser Barclay. What a fucking cunt. He sounded desperate. Fook off and die.

    I actually hope the media darlings spurs get hammered tonight.

  127. xol says:

    Clubs should each have a swear box and donate the money to chariddy. The passion would remain and the disciplinary aspect would all be dealt with in the right spirit. It would all be proportionate and the punishment would befit the crime.

    The way things stand (after the F.A changed things at the weekend), players from all teams will have to be aware of being targeted. Obviously certain teams/players will be targeted more than others, which isn’t fair. This will result in certain managers remarking about the fairness….

  128. Rai says:

    I want Ronnie to rip them apart

  129. Zelh says:

    not good enough spurs.

  130. portugueseprincess says:

    Of all the people to score against Spurs…hahaha

  131. Rai says:

    Fuckin sorted get in. I want Madrid to go through so we can beat them later in the competition. I want Ronnie to know we accept his decision to leave – but no one is better then United :)

  132. King Eric says:

    Ha ha ha. Shit cunts. Yes I do sound like a kid but don’t like twitcher.

    Priceless comment by the commentator. “Most of europe are scared of crouchs aerial ability and his skills on the ground “. Yeah sure they are shitting it about two league goals peter.

    Noticed yesterday the ysb hansen said spurs have a better squad than united or chelsea. What the fuck? Their strikers are sunday league.

  133. portugueseprincess says:

    Where’s £80m Bale?

  134. Zelh says:

    ahahahaha.
    crouch already send off.

    fucking hilarious.

  135. Kings says:

    The freeeaaaakkk has been sent off. Fuck off Crouch you useless cunt.

  136. gerkeo says:

    Crouch sent off and told ref to fuck off, 74 game ban if the fa get involved

  137. portugueseprincess says:

    Peter…peter…that was so silly

  138. Alpha_RS says:

    Tottenhams inexperience really showing here. Diving in for tackles when they don’t need to.

  139. Kings says:

    Come on the virus, butcher these jumped up cunts and put them in their place.

  140. mikekelly12 says:

    Let’s see ‘Arry’s managerial prowess now!!!

  141. portugueseprincess says:

    There’s gonna be more red cards in this game…Spurs are losing their heads…
    Please can you guys help me…has anyone seen Bale????

  142. falsafa says:

    That was really stupid from crouch, though la liga cunts are cheats. Did you see the elation from Marcelo?

    Damage control time for spurs.

  143. MG says:

    I wonder if Harry gives a shit about Rooney now?

    So beautiful Crouch getting sent off for seriously fucked up behaviour

    What goes around comes around and the world eventually balances itself out

    :)

    Fuck off twat

  144. Trafford Brown says:

    My hope is that Crouch’s red doesn’t mean Spurs shit themselves and sit back, squeezing out a 1-0 defeat to take to the Lane.

    I want Real to take at least a 3 goal lead to London.

  145. King Eric says:

    Yeah well done peter son. Freeeeaakk. Have spurs got out their half yet. How come Bale isn’t starting?

    Yeah not a bad goal by stancovich to say the least. Neur caught in no mans land heads the ball to halfway line and he catches it full on volley. Superb.

  146. Costas says:

    @FletchTHEMAN

    Don’t know what’s the general perception among rival fans, but the fact that Barnes and Gordon Taylor have spoken against the nature of the punishment might count for something. Plus, this is really something unprecedented and it’s not too late for the FA to correct a wrong without having to worry about getting accused of double standards. I know. I am hoping for too much. But I will agree with you that in a way, Rooney played into their hands. But you never know where the line is drawn anymore. Remember when Ronaldo swept away his tracksuit against City? That would probably lead to a ban in today’s “Respect” campaign.

    @willie

    Fergie said it might be too early for Ando. I was hoping otherwise. :( But even if he doesn’t play, Park’s presence in midfield should give us more bite. As for Rio, it’s a risk, but Fergie might worry about Smalling’s nerves on a game like this. Playing Ferdinand against Barcelona backfired. And he is out for 2 months now. I hope Fergie makes the right decision.

    @shubhangmanred

    Cheers. Hope you are right. :) No Martin Atkinson tomorrow. Lets not forget about that. ;)

  147. lawman10 says:

    Did anyone hear Patric Barclay on talkshite? in his opinion the FA ban on rooney was too light
    said he felt the ban should of been longer.
    the list of these newspaper twats having ago at anything to do with manchester united is growing by the hour,
    I for one have had enough of this over the top attacks on rooney & manchester united.
    fergie did not happy tonight, and who can blame him.
    the ABUs are really pissing me off.

  148. slim says:

    commentator talking as the manager in a half time team talk.

    “we need to get the ball to gallas on this free kick”

    “defending must be tight,we need to defend well”

    “lets keep this at 1-0″

    fucking hilarious

    Come on Ronnie

  149. rat1p says:

    wow inter-schalke great game

  150. portugueseprincess says:

    And this is the Ronaldo I love to hate or hate to love…I don’t know

  151. King Eric says:

    Costas. Hello mate. What do you mean “playing ferdinand against barcelona backfired“? Did you mean an Arsenal player?

  152. King Eric says:

    Lawman. Yes I did hear that cunt Barclay. unbelievable.

    Oh according to ray wilkins the ref is having a blinder. Err why’s that Ray. Anything to do with the non awarding of a blatant pen to the fascists and free kick?

  153. portugueseprincess says:

    Worst decision not giving a yellow card to Ramos??!!Are u having a laugh??? Worst decision was the penalty that should have been awarded to Real after Dawson’s handball…

  154. rachreddevil1 says:

    is anyone hearing ray wilkins on commentary i want to throw something at the t.v. i bet he will be co-comentator next week for chelski coming to OT

  155. james21 says:

    Lawman10
    I can’t listen to talkshite, Alan Green saw to that with his scouse Bias.
    It gets more annoying that rival fans don’t see all this ABU and still think Utd get Preferential treatment.
    Fuck the papers let all Utd fans boycott them all. Hit them where it hurts right in the pocket.
    Lets Knock Chelscum and Shitty out of the Cups and bring in number 19 ,12 and 4.

  156. dannysoya says:

    rachreddevil1 , you read my mind LOLLL. WTF is wrong with Ray Wilkins. soo baised in his commentary. CLEAR bale dive and he calls that a yellow card. What the hell. LOLL

  157. dannysoya says:

    Ray Wilkins…… one of the worst commentators i’ve ever heard. If you wanna suck arry’s dick all you need to do is call him and ask him rather than suck up to him on the mic. Bloody annoying.

  158. gerkeo says:

    Whats more offensive to youngsters, rooney shouting fuck into a camera or the fact that booze makers are one of the principle sponsors of all the big clubs, united and Budweiser, chelsea heineken, pool carlsberg. Christ, its the carling league cup. What’s setting a worse example?

  159. Costas says:

    @KIng Eric

    Hi mate. I meant the final in Rome. Rio was out for 3 weeks I believe and in the final he didn’t look his usual self. Based on his form at the time, I feel that maybe Evans should have started there.

  160. dannysoya says:

    Dawson BLATANT handball. if that was Vidic. It would be like Armageddon in the Papers.

  161. King Eric says:

    Costas. Aaah. Now I know what you mean mate. I wasn’t being pedantic. I genuinely didn’t know what you meant. How did exam go. Was it today or is it Thursday?

    Portugeseprincess, rachreddevil and dannysoya. Yeah what the fuck is with butch wilkins referring to spurs as “we“. ?

    What game has stelling been watching? “Spurs have their weapon in bale and he’s caused all sorts of problems“. Again just hype. He has done absolutely nowt again.

  162. parryheid says:

    Pay attention now lads in Schalke were looking at our likely opponents in the semi final.

  163. portugueseprincess says:

    Ronaldo does a Nani hahaha

  164. King Eric says:

    Fucking over rated madrid as well. Struggling to bury a ten man spurs. We hammer these cunts with ten men ourselves.

  165. portugueseprincess says:

    @King Eric, so true. Real are truly overated.

  166. portugueseprincess says:

    Inter are 2-3 down…conceding 3 goals at home in the CL is never good lol

  167. NotoriousRedDevil says:

    I’m glad I wasn’t alive when Ray Wilkins donned a United shirt. I’m playing a drinking game 3 fingers every time he says the words Well Done as a result I’ve had to put my laptop on a table and not my lap.

  168. portugueseprincess says:

    Ade scores again hahahaha Arsenal fans are celebrating next door to me are celebrating like their team scored hahahahahahahaha

  169. slim says:

    look at that prat pointing at his name Lol

  170. rat1p says:

    inter is getting hammered lol

  171. portugueseprincess says:

    Make that 4 goals conceded by Inter lololololol

  172. rachreddevil1 says:

    i can’t believe i’m watchin arrys one man band and inter are imploding on the other side

  173. portugueseprincess says:

    What a goal Angelito!!!!!!!

  174. NotoriousRedDevil says:

    Di Maria scores a cracker cue jizzfest. Nani scores 1 a month like that fuck all, same for when Ronaldo wore our shirt.

  175. Rai says:

    This is brilliant. Beetroot face must be melting even more the ugly prick. ‘arry for England I say :)

  176. Trafford Brown says:

    Surely facing Schalke in the semi is a huge motivation for our boys?

    Utd Barca final?

    Payback?

  177. dannysoya says:

    FUCKIN ELL!!! Schalke have scored FIVE times away. They are in the semis FOR SURE now. DAMN!!! Adebayor was brilliant today LOL. Gareth Who?

  178. portugueseprincess says:

    5th goal conceded by Inter!!!!!hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhaah

  179. Costas says:

    You see kids? This is what happens to teams that spent too much time with Rafa Beneathus. Inter have went from European champions to Schalke’s bithces.

    @King Eric

    Oh thanks mate. It’s on Thursday. Hopefully I will make time for tomorrow’s game.

  180. portugueseprincess says:

    Surely Inter won’t conced 6???!!!

  181. Devil310 says:

    We still gotta beat Chelsea. Some of you lot are too confident against the rent boys. Don’t like it. Let’s get a good result tomorrow before you all go running your mouths

  182. Saad says:

    Bale = 80 million quid??? Hmmm. Kinda full of crap, ain’t ya, ‘arry?

  183. rat1p says:

    an average team like schalke is destroying inter,i just hope.we face them in the semis the chances are huge to get into another final

  184. Che Guevarist says:

    Agree with Devil310, we aren’t even in the semi-finals yet lads. Chelsea will be really hungry and hard to beat.

  185. Costas says:

    Schalke do sound like an easier proposition for us in the semis, but lets not forget that underrated German teams have knocked us out of the Ch.League semis twice.

  186. lawman10 says:

    Oh dear the media darlings,spuds look like there going out!!!
    what oh what will the media say about this?

  187. portugueseprincess says:

    I knew he would score hahahahahah

  188. lawman10 says:

    good old ronnie get in there!!! good goal & fuck off wilkins you nob

  189. RedScot says:

    Goodnight Spurs, now do your buisness at White Hart lane on the 20th.You know it makes, you can still get in the Champions league for next season.Just hammer the Arsenal.

  190. dannysoya says:

    Devil310. i am in total agreement. I still fear Chelsea and they’ll be really determined to get one over us this time. Abramovich has shown that he wants the trophy badly. I can only hope and Believe that we can win this tie and most especially try and get something out of the game tomorrow.

    4-0 MADRID. SHUT UP WILIKINS!!! saying that spurs don’t deserve their beating. WTF?

  191. NotoriousRedDevil says:

    Of course Spurs deserve to be 4-0 down Wilkins you twat. Madrid have been parked outside Spurs box for the last 75 minutes.

  192. Saad says:

    I agree with Devil310, we shouldn’t jump the gun and get all over-zealous about a place in the final. Having said that, I feel confident about our chances against Chelsea over two legs.

    1) No English referees
    2) Most of our players are fit

    Man for man, and with no obvious refereeing prejudice against us, we are clearly a better team than Chelsea.

  193. parryheid says:

    No luck Harry robbed beaten by 4 breakaways.Are you liking it now.

  194. Costas says:

    Ronaldo loves playing against the Spuds. His 7th goal against them. :D

    What’s the matter with Wilkins? Wasn’t he unbiased?

  195. portugueseprincess says:

    Wilkins is such a twat…

  196. portugueseprincess says:

    £80m Ronaldo or £80m Bale? So hard for me to decide…please can anyone help me :)

  197. fergie is the boss says:

    portugueseprincess – I was shouting out loud earlier on at wilkins, YOUR NOT A FUCKING MANAGER SO SHUT THE FUCK UP lol

  198. portugueseprincess says:

    @Fergie is the boss, unfortunately I cannot write here what I was shouting at him lolololo

  199. dannysoya says:

    4-0…. AVE IT ‘ARRY!!!!

  200. King Eric says:

    Well didn’t bale and modric show what such big game players they are. Fuck off you overrated cunts.

    Ray wilkins. What the fuck? Talk about clutching at straws. Yet STILL stelling says bale was excellent till the last fifteen. Seriously he did absolutely nish. Nada. Fuck all.

  201. redrider says:

    It’s easy to equate. Bale = 80 mil. so calculating, Giggsy would be around 90-100 mil, taking his age into consideration. Boy i shudder to think bout Nani and TonyV then.

    No wonder Chamakh and Bendtner look world beaters in London lol.

    And saw the Inter defence? I thought the Schalke players looked embarassed to score.

  202. parryheid says:

    And tomorrow I expect a minimum Two goal advantage for United,I also expect Shakter to get an away goal against Arsenals B team roll on tomorrow.

  203. portugueseprincess says:

    Apparently a search party has been sent out for Gareth Bale…but dont say that to the Sky pundits!!

  204. Costas says:

    Giggs at 37 is worth more than Bale.

  205. Macedonia_United says:

    modric and sneijder just have the worst games of their careers

  206. redrider says:

    Wonder what Mano Menezes would be thinking had he caught the two Brazilian keepers in the act today. :)

  207. redrider says:

    *thought*

  208. portugueseprincess says:

    Saw this on twitter during the half time at Madrid:
    “LiterallyJamie‎: Dad ought to think about bringing Gareth Bale on.”
    hahahhaahahhaha

  209. redrider says:

    should’ve tweeted Dad ought to be thinking what to order on the flight back home.

  210. Saad says:

    @redrider

    Well, Brazil “exports” so many footballers to other leagues and even to other national teams (like Germany, Japan, Qatar, etc.), maybe they should think about “importing” one of those really good Spanish keepers. Right now, they have an embarrassingly high number of world-class keepers!

  211. portugueseprincess says:

    Harry Redknapp second mugging is Spain…unlucky mate!! haha

  212. portugueseprincess says:

    *in Spain

  213. redrider says:

    Saad

    Think any keeper from the N.Pole would do better than those two clowns after their stellar performance tonight.

  214. willierednut says:

    Crouch cost Spurs. You can’t dive in, when on a yellow card. Pretty hard to get your better players on the ball, when you’re chasing shadows for majority of the game. Inter got a tanking at home and wee Wesley wasn’t at the races again. Great incentive for the lads, to reach another final.

  215. Doghouse says:

    Crouch practically did a Ballotelli. Though he won’t get as roasted for it. Really stupid, twice. But I think Tottenham would still have been thumped. With the best will in the world Crouchy is not worth four goals either way in Madrid.

    At least now they are out of it they can concentrate on getting 4th.

  216. Doghouse says:

    And for the record, what happened to all these so called amazing Tottenham players on the very big stage? And at crunch time in the season? Much as I have some respect for Spurs, they are really failing to deliver on their early potential, and Bale of player of the year? Hell no.

  217. King Eric says:

    Portugese princess. Ha ha. He certainly has been mugged hasn’t he.

    What the fuck is that cunt saggers on about? Says crouchy is just another arrogant idiot like the “other top english players“. Hhhmm. Not a dig at rooney is it you posh public schoolboy cunt?

  218. redrider says:

    Sit children…Let me give you the subject of the day.
    Who is Gareth Bale?

  219. willierednut says:

    Never been convinced about Gomes. Too many mistakes in him.

  220. King Eric says:

    They are talking like had fucking lennon played he would have been the difference. Oh fuck off. The little cunt choked before the game even kicked off. Laughable.

  221. willierednut says:

    Dawson was Spurs best player by a country mile. Don’t think Madrid would’ve beat them by that margin. Madrid are a good side, but I honestly think, we’d beat them over two legs.

  222. MG says:

    Breaking News

    Harry Redknapp interview after 4-0 thrashing at Madrid

    So ‘Arry how do you sum up your feelings after that kind of thrashing?

    Well Jeff I think as you know it’s not been triffic er I think that all you can say is that Wayne Rooney deserves to be thrown the kitchen sink at him I mean you know you can’t have that in today’s game. I think at the end what he did was out of order and Alex better sort it out because we don’t like to see this sort of behavior on the pitch you know?

    ‘Arry why are you talking about Rooney for – you just lost to Madrid and talking about unprofessional players how bad was that from Crouch?

    Well Jeff at the end of the day I think that I didn’t see it – I only read it from the paper like at what the boy done and all I can say is it’s disgusting – he should not have sworn.

    ‘Arry are you feeling okay, you do know that you are in Madrid on the end of a savage beating in the CL?

    Well Jeff I have to say that no one did that in Bobby Charlton’s day you know what I mean?

    :lol:

  223. portugueseprincess says:

    To me the problem with Brazilian players is that even defenders and goalkeepers want to show off and attack. Just have a look at Rogerio Ceni the golkeeper who has scored 100 goals lolol nothing wrong with that except the fact that sometimes he actually forgets that he is a goalkeeper haha. Gomes is so unreliable it’s umbelievable.

  224. Costas says:

    So Crouch is a top player now?

  225. willierednut says:

    Lennon said he had no energy? Did his bottle go? Strange one.

  226. portugueseprincess says:

    @Costas,what are you on about? Crouch is world class!!! World class I tell you.
    Sorry to say this and I don’t mean to offend anyone but British,especially English, players are so overated its sad. As soon as they show something good they are worth £25 + millions… I remember how much Darren Bent was worth some years back :) and now dear old Arry wants to compare Bale to Ronaldo. Come on now,behave!!

  227. King Eric says:

    Willie. Ha. I like it mate. I have a dig at modric and you reply in kind with one at sneijder. Only messing mate.

  228. redrider says:

    Great theatrics from Carvalho tonight btw… Seems to be the hallmark of all Mou’s teams.

  229. willierednut says:

    King Eric – Never mate! Modric was poor tonight, but he did have Jenas beside him lol. Also, you had some on here a few weeks ago, saying we should go for Sandro. He looked distinctly average. Hard to judge Madrid, when they played against 10 men for 70 minutes.

  230. dannysoya says:

    AHAHAHAHA. Crouchy throws it all away. and now they come up with an excuse. if crouchy was there they would have scored at least a goal. Ray Wilkins what a knob. Out played from head to toe. In the second half it was quarter pitch not even half pitch. They could have used 3/4 of the pitch for a party and real madrid would have been fine with that.

  231. King Eric says:

    Willie. Yeah mate. Of course lennon bottled it. You really couldn’t make this shit up.

    Portugeseprincess. Has that goalie you mentioned really scored a hundred goals? Wow

    Didn’t realise in 91 brucie scored nineteen goals!

  232. MG says:

    ‘Arry how much is Bale worth now?

    Well Jeff all I can say is that I would want 160 million for him you know I think that’s a triffic price – boy what a player.

    ‘Arry he didn’t do anything?

    Well Jeff I mean I thought the lad was superb tonight – the way he got up after nearly missing the rest of the season with an ‘amstring – you know – triific.

    ‘Arry are you sure you are feeling ok?

    Well Jeff I mean you know what I mean – I thought Crouchy was triffic too. So much composure on the ball and the way he ‘eaded them two goals – boy what a player!

    ‘Arry Crouch was sent off – are you talking about Adebayor?

    Well Jeff the chairman said to me you want to buy Ronaldo? I said okay – then he told me it was a bloody game – football manager or something – dearie me – I think Jeff that if Ronaldo could come that would send a message out to the rest of the premiership you know?

    Bloody hell ‘Arry what is wrong with you?

    Well Jeff I think Jamie he’s a good lad you know he was down at half time and we were talking about him coming on….

    :lol:

  233. willierednut says:

    Your man Di Maria looked decent. Cracking strike, as well. What the fuck was Neuer doing?? Thinks he’s an outfield player!

  234. Rai says:

    Leonardo is gonna get some shit for that. He’s ruined his legacy I used to respect him too. But swapping Milan for Inter was stupid…he’ll be known as a mercenary

  235. redrider says:

    Willie
    that was a good header aye? :-) thought he’d saved a certain goal but whoops!

  236. Redbladkenyan says:

    A dream all London final prayer by the ABU media….the God of football (SAF) and His side-kick mourinho would hear none of that.

  237. portugueseprincess says:

    @King Eric,yep. Last week he scored his career 100th goal. In 2005 alone he scored 21 goals!!Could only be a Brazilian keeper :)

  238. redrider says:

    portugueseprincess
    he takes the penalties and free kicks doesnt he? Like chilavert…Seen some of his goals. Thought he’d be retired by now… How old is he?

  239. andrehillz says:

    the FA re taking this too far. This is totally unacceptable.

  240. portugueseprincess says:

    @ Redrider,yeah he takes penalties and free kicks. He was 38 in January. When Chilavert retired he had scored 62 goals.

  241. Kings says:

    So £80m Bale went missing and the real £80m man nicked one, albeit a flukey goal. I flicked over to watch my mate Sneijder in action briefly, largely due to the fact that Wilkins was making me bring up bile with his over the top gushing of praise of how great Spurs were in containing Madrid and how they would have definitely scored if that lanky streak of piss was still on the pitch. Where do they get these fucking idiots from? Sneijder may not have been at the races, but he certainly made more of a contribution than that magical Modric. I can see why beetroot cunt would be loathed to lose him. Wilkins: ‘They don’t deserve this beating, they really don’t, they have been great entertainment this season’. Oh fuck off please you huge centre parting cunt. I’m actually gutted Spurs didn’t win because I wanted to see that silly cunt ‘Arry’ run up to the gantry and give his boy a manly handshake like he did when they won in Milan. Roll on tomorrow. Come on United.

  242. parryheid says:

    Don’t you think you are a little premature writing Spurs off they only have to score Four and win a penalty shootout they should find that do able.

  243. King Eric says:

    Willie. Ha. Yeah mate. After ONE game sandro was THE man for united. Pathetic.

    Just heard a spurs fan say “ OUR teams are just not good enough against the madrids and barcas“. Speak for your fucking self you cockney cunt. Do not fear madrid at all I really don’t.

    Ha. Straw clutcher Stan just said “there is only one team that cam score four against madrid. That’s liverpool“. What the fuck relevance has this? The same dippers that were knocked out the mickey mouse cup in europe? For fuck sake.

  244. slim says:

    Hehe, i was worried spurs would pull of the unthinkable, instead Harry looks like his face has fallen…..Oh wait, my bad. Done and dusted this tie.
    This Madrid side look delicious, its a shame we can only meet them in the final if we go through and its a shame its led by mou because without him this lot will be languishing. Their president will be smart to keep a hold of Mourinho because he’s the glue holding it together.

  245. slim says:

    oh i almost forgot, Gareth Bale? 80 million ? tut tut tut tut . what is this world coming to ?

  246. redrider says:

    portugueseprincess

    maybe we could bring him over… :-)
    we had a keeper here where i play who used to nutmeg players too much for the coach’s liking… Used to dribble till the halfway line until some one shouted what his position was…

    Can’t wait till tomorrow…
    Bring on the chelski scum…

  247. slim says:

    the result against inter is testament that United can and should tear Chelsea a new one, they look yummy and there for the taking, no fucking about putting too much emphasis on tactics,get in there and rip them a new one

  248. slim says:

    @King Eric

    honestly that bloke should be tested regularly for drugs by his employers. Surely he must be on something. LSD? Cocaine ? something

  249. redrider says:

    King Eric
    by that logic, West Brom ought to beat madrid too…

  250. MG says:

    ‘Arry can you be champions of Europe?

    Well Jeff you know we tried to get the Olympic stadium but you know it wasn’t triific but I can tell you the chairman was in the office the other day and he was asking me about Wembley.

    I think if we can get into Wembley then we will be up there with the big boys you know Jeff and that helps buying better players you know – we might be able to afford Bale at 80 million ;)

    ‘Arry what the fuck are you talking about?

    Their you go Jeff talking like Wayne Rooney again – I swear it I won’t ‘ave it. It\s bad for the kids you know

    :lol:

  251. King Eric says:

    Slim. He is a fucking mug mate. Even dragging the vermin into a spurs debate.

    Redrider. Ha ha. Absolutely mate.

  252. willierednut says:

    Kings – Ha ha, Magical Modric. Not tonight. Only seen the highlights of Inter’s game, but they poor by all accounts. They got out – played in the derby as well, on Saturday. Inter are too reliant on Sneijder, as are Spurs on Modric.

  253. MG says:

    Okay done with the Arry interview

    Was that me or did I just get no laughs on that one ;)

    Anyway goodnight Manchester United – tomorrow begins another chapter in our history and one which I believe will not be forgotten this year.

  254. Rai says:

    Fuck me gently just seen that goal from Stankovic. What a strike goal of the season without a doubt. Imagine if an English player (not playing for United) had scored that they’d be creaming over it

  255. King Eric says:

    Kings. Ha. Amusing as usual pal. “Huge centre parting cunt“. Quality. Yeah mate its a shame isn’t it we cannot watch harry running into the gantry and getting giddy again. Daft cunt.

    Wildly off topic but just watching jools holland and what a talentless ian brown wannabe cunt liam gallagher really is. They aint produced owt of note since 94. Citeh cunts.

  256. Red Dave says:

    I never used to believe the media was dominated by ABU bile and prejudice but the facts are clear. Barclay on Talkshite! 60fucking 6 5 live Saturday and that merseygobshite Mike Parry going on and on about Rooney and making out it was as serious as that poor young Irish policeman being killed. And drivel from Robbie Savage criticising Rooney and claiming he didn’t swear on the pitch (for those who don’t remember former United youth player – not good enough. bitter). Or, last night news on itn 6.30. On comes Shearer, yes, Shearer, who sticks up for Rooney and ‘cos they believe in balance, to criticise – Mickey Quinn. Such an honourable ex-pro. Just the man to take the moral high ground. Oh, didn’t he go to prison -yes prison – for repeated drink driving, and wasn’t he invesitigated for benefit fraud??? To ITN no problem. It’s saying fuck that’s more serious.

    Why do we tolerate these scum bags? Do what I do. Complain regularly about them especially to the BBC and force some twat to respond week after week until they get heartedly sick of the hassle and start doing something about it.

    They just can’t stand Mancunian success. Bastards.

  257. NotoriousRedDevil says:

    On topic read this of Skys website regarding Rooney.

    “WITCH HUNT? I don’t think so. Its bad enough he chose to use the language he did and if he’d used it in a pub or club in the manner and with the level of vitriol towards the camera man he may well have ended up in a cell for the night and in front of a judge! ”

    Pray tell has this guy ever been in a pub or club. Theres some of these places I know that if every guy got arrested for swearing there would be just bar staff, DJ and a few women left. Or does the DJ get banged up for playing The Next Episode?

  258. FletchTHEMAN says:

    I know you lot are trying to ignore him, but honestly. MG has been having a good piss on O’l Arrrwy!
    Nice one son!

    80M for Bale, 60M for Modric. Ha ha ha ha ha h ah aaaaaaahhhhhhh aha ha; ha ha ha.
    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Haaaaaa ha xcz azzackkkkk ha hckkk chort… …… .l.lllll …… errrrpp.
    Oh my.

    No value in this market. Let’s all look elsewhere……mmmm Mexico, mmmmm Fulham’s bargin basement mmmmmm.

    Come on United. Chavs should be well worried. No english ref to save them tomorrow!

  259. smartalex says:

    MG, your interview/s were hysterical, as always!

  260. King Eric says:

    Red Dave. Spot on mate. Quinn is a fat scouse bastard whose only achievement is winning celebrity fat club. He is clearly confused. Or just a cunt. Yesterday pre ban he was saying it would be too harsh. The same self cunt today then starts saying its justified. He fancys himself as a real joker. A scouse scally if you will. A muppet is the word. In august he said city would walk the league and united wouldn’t get top four.

    M G. Yes its you mate. Get your coat. Only joking pal. Love ya posts.

  261. Real red devil says:

    The main difference between the last time we faced rent boys and this time would be Tony V.Its no secret that ashley cole hates facing Tony v.So there is one positive point to take up to the bridge…Its time to say that again…BELIEVE……………

    http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/parker-and-adam-worthy-of-pfa-nod-in-season-without-an-obvious-winner-2263479.html

    No mention of Nani, from this baby faced cunt. Bale is his player of the year, for two games against Inter. Both games against United, he was poor. He didn’t perform against Liverpool and Chelsea, so why is he player of the year?

  263. Rai says:

    MG – controversial and funny all in one day, we all enjoy your posts mate I haven’t read everyone today been hectic.

    We’re very much due a win at the Bridge but a score draw I’ll be chuffed – we shouldn’t go into the game with any fear we know we are the better team.

  264. willierednut says:

    MG – We love ya man! lol.

  265. Arse-seen, Wonk-er says:

    Team For Tomorrow…the team fergie will realistically go for !

    Vds

    Fabio/Rafael
    Rio
    Vida
    Evra

    Valencia
    Carrick
    Scholes
    Gibson/park
    Nani

    Rooney

    & bench: PIG, chicha, berb, giggs, park/gibbo, smallings, rafa/fabio

    Ideally i’d like chico to come on for gibbo/ park at half time so we can catch them off guard through our strengths out wide then with chico’s n rooneys ability throught the middle plus the little peas headers :)

    Then when Scholes tires the graceful Giggs to come on & tie up loose ends for a 2-1 away win :)

    We should play to our strengths , chelsheet’s only threats are set pieces where they have bigger players ( terry, ivanovic, essien, drog, lady-boy & Lumps)

    BELIEVE =D

  266. pibe says:

    Anybody know anything about Alberto Undiano, the ref for tomorrow at stanford bridge..

    I heard at the world cup Germany vs Serbia he gave 9 yellows, including one for Vida awarding a penalty and 2 for klose earning him a send-off, shouldn’t be a problem with our disciplinary record but I hope he does a fair job

  267. FletchTHEMAN says:

    Pibe, Don’t know that much other than some folks think he has some class. Hope he hands out some cards to Senior Terry when they mob him, and toss essien for one of his trademark studs up. Maybe best that we keep Evans on the bench ;)

    Undianos wiki page says he has won the Best Ref Award award twice in La Liga. Sounds like a quality guy.

    @MG

    Bloody genius, tirrific you know. Honestly the interviews cracked me up, after reading went back to watch his interview i swear its so similar. Poor harry

    Okayon a more serious note i hope this piss taking doesn’t come back haunt us then again shipping four past us i don’t see it,looking forward to the game tomorrow i’m all for tearing the rent boys a new one, Come on United

    Woolnough’s wiki

  272. Debred says:

    Chelshit have only 1 title to aim for so they would be really up for this one and with inter milan already knocked out…they know there is a good chance of going on the finals…having said that I really hope we give it our all…if we can score an away goal and not conced any or too many…it will be great….but too many fans here talk about the ref and how it will not be an english one which should ensure a fair game…have we all forgotted last year to Bayern…Rafels sending off…We need to be up for this one and play a physical game…David Luiz needs to be given it back…I just hope Rio or Scholsey can ensure that…
    Feeling very very jittery though…Our record sucks at the bridge…

  273. Kings says:

    willierednut – Hello mate. Schalke looked good in that game and could have had more than the 5 goals they scored – they have pace going forward. Yeah Inter massively rely on Sneijder. I think Inter are a poor side overall and with the exception of Sneijder, there is no one else in that team I would take to United.

    King Eric – Hello mate. As much as I hate Madrid, I am well pleased they absolutely butchered them cunts and put them in their place. Everyone has been talking about them as if they are the new powerhouse of European Football. Fuck off please. Now Wilkins is saying that Chelsea will beat Barcelona in the Final, obviously dismissing our chances before a ball has even been kicked. Yeah we’ll see you Dr Evil look-a-like cunt.

  274. theboogeyman says:

    Debred- No Luiz today. He’s cup-tied.

    I think we’re gonna beat them today, I really do!

  275. theboogeyman says:

    Morning guys.

    Is anyone here?

  276. Dazbomber says:

    I am good morning

  277. pibe says:

    good evening for me although i cant wait for it to be tomorrow morning!

  278. pibe says:

    12 hours away from the whistle! not that we need it but anyways good luck!
    BELIEVE

  279. Jeet says:

    @Boogeyman – yeah mate; not to jinx it, but somehow I fancy our chances. Interesting to see how Fergie lines up today. It’s a CL match, but Chelsea is always better tackled with 2 upfront. Also, does he risk players like ando, rafael, and park? and would Valencia be available for 90 minutes after saturday, and so soon after serious injury?

  280. Kings says:

    Rai – Hello mate. Yeah I saw that. Fucking sheephead cunt. He just wouldn’t let it go last Sunday on the Sunday Supplement calling for him to get a ban, a wish that was eventually granted. Just goes to show what a massive influence the media have on the FA’s decision making. CUNT.

  281. ancha says:

    good morning jeet, theboogeyman

    my line up would be

    EVDS – Rafael/fabio,smalling,vidic,evra – nani, carrick,scholes,ando,park – rooney
    if he goes for 4-4-2 then ando/carrick out berba/chico in

    for the last two seasons, its been very difficult to predict what SAF is going to put out, its the injuries the reason for this unpredictablility fucking hate them

  282. newtown_red says:

    ancha

    I guess the back line will be about the same.Although i think Valencia has to, and will start.Nani on the left.With no Fletcher, i would say Park may get a role in the middle.Don’t think Ando will be included in the starting line up to be honest.He has been out to long.Maybe Rooney may drop back into the Midfield like the Arsenal game.
    Whatever the formation or line up Sir Alex selects, I think the team will be really fired up.Although i hope that we do not lose our bite like we did in the second half against Chelsea at this season.If we play a high tempo, we the wingers and fullbacks we have, their midfield be stretched a lot more often then the last time we played.
    Come on United.Don’t give the Abu’s any more chance to belittle our great club.

  283. parryheid says:

    No way is he going to send a team out that doesn’t contain Valencia.

  284. ancha says:

    jeet, Costas
    how are you ?

    been held up at a remote place so wasn’t able to post the whole week, seriously missed ROM

    who’s sheen ?
    did you guys miss my lecture on history to Mr Frank Lampard ;)

  285. ancha says:

    newtown_red, parry

    sorry for replying to your posts in different thread
    but I am surprised at the way we are using valencia, I have excluded him from my predicted line up for today just because of that only reason that he has been relied upon very heavily considering that he has recently returned from a long lay off he has to be rested properly, if he starts tonight that will be 180 mins in a span of four days which is very hard for player returning from such an injury, I’m very much worried because of that, hence I feel he should be on the bench and can come on later if needed,

  286. ancha says:

    sorry my last two posts are supposed to be on the Lampard thread

  287. newtown_red says:

    ancha

    Thats a fair enough point i guess.Maybe a impact sub than.I really feel that Valencia will be involved in some way.He provides us the directness that is needed at times.

  288. parryheid says:

    Every body goes on about the ref because it’s the biggest factor British football with it’s take that you cunt tackles are alien to them and they don’t mess about.Interfere with an attacking player cert foul and likely card I am sure we will be awarded a penalty tonight we have to many tricky players for Chelsea 2-0 us game over Chelsea.
