Balaji Sivaraman says:
Now, this is obviously legit. However, whether it came from paint or more advanced image-editing software like Photoshop is anyone’s guess. But Windows 7′s version of Paint is decent enough for somebody skilled enough to come up with this.

Anyways, it is not my place to argue about that stuff. Congratulations and make sure to let your voice be heard. Paul Scholes AKA God deserves it more than anyone else.

Nice one, Jennifer: Gary’s kiss was sweeter than City’s whine!

Fred says:
Jenny Rix, your picture is class! Congratulations.

I found out about this contest too late, but I would have done the image of him scoring the goal in that game http://www.manchesterunited-info.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/manchester_city_manchester_united_paul_scholes_goal_.jpg

Congrats again to the winner and everyone who submitted entries. Enjoy the game!

Well we know she lurks on here, so maybe she can tell us!
August 4, 2011 at 15:12
Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Fred, I am pretty sure she has one. Nobody can produce that amount of awesomeness with a mouse. Which is why I said, “But Windows 7′s version of Paint is decent enough for somebody skilled enough to come up with this.” Key words being somebody skilled enough.

Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Costas, Yeah, I realized this is a bad time for me to watch House M.D. immediately after seeing these pictures multiple times.
August 4, 2011 at 15:28
Costas says:
@Balaji

It’s a day of man crushes. All we need now is for King Eric to pop up and tell us about his love for Chicharito.
August 4, 2011 at 15:29
Fred says:
Balaji – right on. It just so happens I have a Bamboo pen & tablet myself. I rarely use it though. Maybe I’ll have a go at making the picture I had in mind and upload the results.

I was wondering if the use of such a tool would be prohibited in the rules, or even if an entry could be rejected for being “too good”. The winner of the previous competition is fantastic, btw. Really awesome. Clearly done with a mouse, but by someone extremely talented artistically. Congratualtions to that person (Matt Kerr) and once again to Ms. Rix from Bury.

Well done Jennifer…………. About the picture, I wondered at the time whether Neville used tongue or not!

Fletch is the Man, good to hear Fletch is doing well, do they test for HGH or steroids in the BEPL? Fletchinator will be back!!!!!

Zibbie says:
LOL!!! I’m on the side of tongue.
August 4, 2011 at 15:41
Balaji Sivaraman says:
Cedars’ entry means this thread is now officially NC-17 rated.

I think it was just lips. But I am making a mental note to ask that question to either Gary or Paul in a future Q&A.
August 4, 2011 at 15:43
CedarsDevil says:
Balaji – If Gary did use tongue that he cannot be blamed really, you know heat of the moment and all that!
August 4, 2011 at 15:45
Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Cedars, I would’ve used tongue and more for that magical goal scored by Scholesy.
August 4, 2011 at 15:48
CedarsDevil says:
Balaji – And more? Do tell
August 4, 2011 at 15:48
Fred says:
Yeah, I think a lot of Reds would have happily sucked him off at that moment – and still would.
August 4, 2011 at 15:56
Fred says:
What I like about all these Scholes and Van Der Sar threads on here today is that we’re getting a welcome reprieve from discussion about certain other midfielders/Dutchmen.

It’s great that these two genuine LEGENDS of the game are getting their due.
August 4, 2011 at 15:59
Balaji Sivaraman says:
Cedars – Sshhhh…. I am not quite ready for that yet. With my comments on Dr. House, Phil Jones and Paul Scholes, I am giving off the wrong impression here.

@Fred, Amen to that.
August 4, 2011 at 15:59
CedarsDevil says:
Oh dear God Fred………… Even the slightest of hints could spark off things again!

At the halfway stage of the summer transfer window, Manchester United blog Republik of Mancunia give Metro Sport their views on all the ins and outs at Old Trafford so far.

Surely there’s a thread in there somewhere.
August 4, 2011 at 16:03
CedarsDevil says:
Balaji – Come out with it my friend, we will support you…. Remember our resident King Eric already admitted his bisexuality and man crush on Hernandez

@Balaji all good the the Red hood mate. What a man does in his bedroom, living room, kitchen table or on the computer desk is all his own business. As I tell my gay friends, you can rub the belly, but those are my pants. I have a friend when drunk, kisses me but I insist no tongue.

Afternoon lads (and lasses). Right, that’s my sulk over with now that we have an iPhone friendly thread. Great pic Jennifer, captured the true ambience of wastelands with all those empty seats. He scores goals galore… He scores goals…. Wish his swan song was a staring role in an upcoming Wembley derby victory.

Favorite United goal of all time, hands down, bar none for me.

Man Crush doesn’t give him proper justice, naming rights to 1st born is more like it. Paul for a boy, Ginger for a girl

Gotta love nostalgic threads!!!

mikekelly12 says:
Fred – Yup, one of my favourites too that goal. There’s something about a goal that ricochets of the underside of the bar. Looking from behind the goal it was the only area of the goal above the keepers glove that it could have gone in, an inch lower and he’s either turning it onto the bar or picking his arm out the back of the net with the ball embedded in the glove!
August 4, 2011 at 16:25
kanchelskis says:
Fred

I honestly don’t think he had that final left in his legs.

A Scholes his prime would’ve given us a fighting chance. The Scholes of last season would’ve given us 60 minutes playing with 10 men. I hate to say it

Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Fred, That is my favorite goal of all time. The one he scored against Bradford is technically more difficult and thus better, but for pure thrills and making me ejaculate, nothing beats the Villa goal. There are very few goals that I’ve seen come close to being as good as that (Zidane against Bayern, Beckham’s lob against West Ham, Henry’s turnaround volley to name a few ). But nothing made my jaw drop lower than that goal. Thanks for that.
August 4, 2011 at 16:36

Cedars, Mike Kelly, Balaji – it was a pleasure to watch it again and to post it for others to share.

On the topic of screamers… I’d like to alert my fellow RoMers to a real hidden gem:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMs6UCLvc7c

I’ve watched this too many times to be healthy, and I have to pick my jaw up off the floor every time. I’m sure there have been hundreds of technically superior goals scored, but for sheer blockbuster outrageousness, that is out on its own.

Fucking screamer.

August 4, 2011 at 16:39

Balaji – Watch the keeper after that Scholes goal. He goes to bring the ball out as if, the ball didn’t cross the line lol. Smashing volley by the prince. The goal against Barcelona takes some beating. The importance of the game, gives that the edge for me.

Balaji Sivaraman says:
@willie, Yeah, lol, what the fuck was he thinking. Didn’t he see the net getting burst open?

In terms of importance, yeah that Barca goal has this one beat trumps. But I just love the nonchalant manner in which Scholesy stands still after he volleys the ball. It is as if it was almost a training ground exercise for him, like he’s thinking “So what?? That’s not difficult for me.” Absolutely brilliant that one. As I said technically, it is more difficult to strike a moving ball than a dropping ball, so Bradford is what he himself would pick, but that goal is just out of this park. I remember at the time thinking, “Yeah all the uncool kids are getting their names heard with Drogba and I think Taylor as well scoring great goals. This would be the time for a Scholesy screamer.” And he delivered.

Willie. Hello mate. Yeah heard that about the bitters not selling their allocation. Durham was having a field day. Smalltime cunts. The usual fucking manchster is blue line. Funny then how they have twenty thousand there for a game against Juve when tickets were a fiver. Oh yeah manchester is blue alright.
Also mate yeah that goal against Villa park and the keeper is hilarious. He actually thinks he may not have crossed the line and carries on regardless. Also that goal at boro when he smashes it in some fans behind the goal actually put their hands to their faces to protect themselves even though the net is there!
August 4, 2011 at 19:28
King Eric says:
Balaji. Hello mate. Can’t have been drogba shirts can it as scholes against bradford was about 2000 wasn’t it? Also who is Taylor? The ever modest Paul says he mishit that goal against Barca.

Talking of Barca good to see them get a four one hiding by Hernandez s former team last night.

Costas. Hello mate. When you look at it we have a seriously strong squad. Full of young talent as well. Good times.

King Eric – Balaji was referring to the Villa goal in 06/07. There had already been a few wondergoals that season from the likes of Drogba, Essien and Portsmouth’s Matty Taylor (now at Bolton.)

Bitter are a due a thrashing, would be a nice way to kick off our season…
August 4, 2011 at 19:50
King Eric says:
The Fly. Ah. Cheers mate. Matty Taylor. Wondered who he meant.

Willie. Big difference this time mate is Rooney. We will do them on Sunday. Fergie will ensure that. Three wembley defeats in four months doesn’t bare thinking about. Yeah Durham was winding them up. Cunts. Saying we live in the past one caller and we bang on about trebles and european cups. Yes because we fucking can you bitter bastards. They think we are on a downward spiral. If only they knew. We aint going anywhjere for the next few years. Such an abundance of young talent in every position. Foundations not built in sand. They are quick fix cunts. All about the here and now. Fergie is three years down the line. As you say pal. Jokers.
August 4, 2011 at 19:53
Balaji Sivaraman says:
@Fred, Yup, that is what I precisely had in mind. All those guys had scored goals and I was just wishing for someone from United to bang one in and Scholesy gladly obliged. I guess that is why I would rank it as my favorite goal of all time.
August 4, 2011 at 19:56

Fred i think it was who posted a youtube link to scholes pass to Rooney in the Millan game. that was simply class. i’ve been in there over an hour now. I gotta say we sure have walloped Arsenal in recent times. They must have and must still be sick of the sight of us. From RVN to park to Giggs,Ronalod. ahh Ronaldo must have been the most painful for em.
August 4, 2011 at 20:06

@Fred, So, the plot regarding which side you are working on becomes clearer. I think old Cedars would be kicking himself for not recognizing it sooner.

Fred. Sorry mate. Giving the fly props for explaining. Saw the red writing and thought it was him. Cheers pal.
August 4, 2011 at 20:09
Balaji Sivaraman says:
@King Eric, Yeah, I should’ve explained it a bit clearer. But I forgot both Taylor’s first name and the team he used to play for when he scored the goal I vaguely recalled in my head. So, I just posted his name and hoped that someone would clarify.

sandeep1878 says:
lets talk about the technique of Scholesy and to do it for so long is incredible..

one of the finest and most loyal footballers of the modern world..

as they say, if he was a Spanish, my scholesy would have been most popular from coast to coast..

this man never played without passion and commitment..

never had a fucking footballing agent and never cribbed about ambition and never liked a loss against pools..

Paul Scholesy epitomizes Manchester United and stop pondering over his replacement my fellow red community coz its a waste of time..

in my view, he is one of the top 3 important player for us in the last 2 decades…

no controversies, not a media darling, practice, play, shower and go home..

Love u Scholesy, hope i would meet u at least once in my life

cant see him play anymore, the man who infuenced me the most in our club as a player

Love you Ginger Ninja, thanks a lot for the memories…we miss you and ur trademark goals and passes

Oops, sorry for the double post, but here is the goal King Eric was talking about.

@Fred Have you ever watched him play? Seems he has already represented United Reserves twice. And nice pic btw Am changing my facebook disp pic to that after Sneijder signs (which is close, I presume)

On topic, I can’t watch them videos again. Already spent an entire day watching them and depressing myself. Don’t want to put myself through it again. Can’t wait for the testimonial match. Bet Scholesy scores a blinder. Also interested to see King Eric on the touchline

A gang of Scouse bin dipping robbers break into a bank late at night and begin trying to open the safes.

they get into the first one, there is no money, only some yoghurt, they tasted it and it was stale and lumpy

So they broke into the next safe only to find even more yoghurt, exept these ones where slightly fresher and tasty

They opened more and more safes but only finding this youghurt, each safe had more tasty and nutricious yoghurt.

“WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?!?” SAID THE GANG LEADER “ARE YOU SURE THIS IS A BANK?”

One of the men goes outside to check, “yep, its definitley a bank”

“well what does the sign say den lah?”

Funny listening to Talksport talking about the charity shield is bollox. i was intrigued and listened on wondering where this was coming from. Apparently City hasn’t been able to sell all their tickets for the game on sunday cough cough United sold all of theirs. So called big club ? shitty is shit club end of thats why they can’t sell their tickets, nothing to do with the format of the charity shield .

The charity shield is a friendly match with a twist. Even Rooney is chuffed about starting the season with such a game, those muppets talking bollox cos city can’t sell all their tickets. You couldn’t make it up. It was almost as if the pair we deliberately missing the point.

The compettion has always been played in good spirit. In recent times a way for the top dogs who got the trophy the previous season, in this case one top dog and a sorry excuse for a club. Pride was what was at stake and those mugs single handely ridiculed what is a pillar of the game. Especially in this country where the rivalry between teams is borderline tribalistic. And even worse their our fucking neigbours, they can’t step it up. City is blue my arse

That would be great mate! Recently saw this documentary, ‘Senna’, on Ayrton Senna. It was amazing and I was wondering if there was anything like that about United/United Legends. I have watched ‘Au Revoir Cantona’ on youtube. That was pretty amazing. You should check it out, if you haven’t seen it. In your case, I guess it would be reliving the memories of The King. For me, it was seeing why he is called The King. It was an amazing experience. Envy all those United supporters who were able to watch him.

I remember recording a Scholes thing on Sky few months back. All his goals in order. Some of those strikes, fucking hell.

And I’ve read a few mention Owen’s winner against City. 4-3 mate quality. I’d say that in the years since Ole’s treble winner (when I physically lost all control and run out the pub going MENTAL), the Owen goal is probably in the top 5 moments for pure joy. Viva John Terry and Edwin’s save, Kiko’s winner, Owen winner, Scholes against Barca, Rooney’s goal against Roma in the 7-1 (pure ecstasy). God I love this club.
August 4, 2011 at 22:23

The Fly. Yeah would have to agree with those goals. Unfortunately I couldn’t bare to listen to the city fans and was in the concourse at the time Micky scored watching it on the screen. A fantastic moment. Rooneys header against City in league cup in last minute was pretty special as well. As was Hernandez z against Everton. There have been dozens of great moments following this club. Ronnies at Fulham is another moment I loved. I could go on all night but won’t.

Ronaldo at Fulham. What a goal. What a player.

O’Shea at the Kop End last minute.

Rooney overhead kick (purely for not believing what I’d just seen)

Ronaldo’s header to make it 3-2 home to Spurs. The first game I took my son to so it holds a special place in my memory.

Van Nistelrooy solo goal at Highbury in that quality blue shirt. The pub was split 50/50 with the two sets of fans, very hostile I can tell you.

So many. I really could go on.

Got to laugh at the dippers. Just watching lfc tv and there are three fans all in saying that Henderson is the best young british talent in years. Are these clowns actually serious?

Berbatov against dippers.
Oles in Fa Cup against dippers.
Struggling at end of season at home to blackburn nil nil in 07 needing the win. Scholes beats about four men in penalty box and slots home to open the floodgates.

The man again last minute header away at the united stadium season before last.

The Fly says:
Liverpool fans amaze me. Talking to one of my (very few) scouse mates the other day. In brief it was something like this.

Dippers fan: “you can tell Fergie is worried about us”.

Me: “How so, we’ve got the same first team apart from the keeper that won the league by 9 points. We’ve added quality to the team and squad. We all know that Sneijder is coming too. And it’s a fact that Rooney will be out of this world this year.”

Dippers fan: “I will admit you have made good signings and if you get Sneijder he is undeniably class. But Fergie would definitely rather have bought the British talent we’ve signed.”

Me: “Would he fuck. Charlie Adam will certainly not cut it at a bigger team. Henderson is possibly the worst signing this summer by anyone. Downing was bought purely to try and get Carroll to do something worthwhile. Anyway we’ve now got Young who’s been England’s best player in 2011 and Jones who many tip to be future captain of England. I’m pretty sure we’ve done the better business.”

Dippers fan: “But with no Europe we can concentrate solely on the league. Plenty of rest and we can utilise our strength in depth.”

From then on I just explained why they won’t win anything. Then we parted ways. He’s actually a decent mate and a top lad, but still suffers from the delusion cast upon them all.

Willie. Bored mate. I watch it for a laugh. It is priceless. Now talking about kenny AND his team having that winning mentality. Are they taking the piss? They aint won a league title in twenty one years. Saying they are so strong in every position. From where I am sitting they need two decent fullbacks. Centre half. Right winger and another two strikers. Plus the bench. Everyone is talking how they could do it this year. No chance. In my opinion they are further away. Suarez is the only decent player and he is a horrible cunt. They haven’t got a torres in his pomp. An alonso. A mascherano. An inform and at his peak stevie me. Or carragher. They truly are fucking awful. I know like me Willie you are gutted we didn’t get the “teletubby“.

Cedars. Evening mate. How are you? How could I forget Brucies. After the disappointment of the previous year and scum Leeds it was a fantastic moment. Crossed whipped in by his centre back pally wasn’t it? Martin Tylers commentary when he realises he needs to not seem so happy for United. “YES…….. yes for Manchester United“!
August 4, 2011 at 23:11

Well if we’re talking about the Bruce winner. Generally the late 80′s and early 90′s were great for late winners. Sparky, Cantona, Keano… Those years were some of the best of my life.

I guess it also started an era of famous late and injury time winners…

Chicharito vs Everton 2011 anyone?

Ronaldo vs Fulham springs to my mind too Played like a fucking dog’s breakfast all day at Craven Cottage only to see Ronaldo gather the ball at about 35 yards from our goal (off a parried set piece if I’m not mistaken) gallop down the left flank like the Gazelle he was, cut in on his right and squib home a terrific winner near post late in what should’ve very well been a 2 goal loss. Pivotal goal in the 2008 season if memory serves me correctly.

King Eric – Deluded cunts mate. John Henry said, they’re aiming for top 4. Even tipped us to win the league lol. Don’t know how that went down in scouse land. Thank fuck Fergie never signed that fat cunt Adam. I’d have Gibbo over that teletubby sack of shit every day of the week!

The Fly they are hilarious. They still think they are Kings of English football. They will get top six if lucky. They actually talk and behave like King Ken is gonna deliver them the title as he is such a genius and astuate purchaser of players. He is a bottle job and as soon as things start going wrong he will jump ship. He cannot live with Fergie.

Costas. Hello mate. Great news. A fully fit Fletcher will make all the difference. Some forget just how good he was couple of seasons back. He bossed every big game.

Smartlalex. Evening fella. That is good news. Or bad depending how you look at it. Happy for Phil as he will be happy. Looks a top young player. Pacy. Strong in the tackle. Good in the air despite him getting outjumped on the tour. Reads the game well and likes to bring the ball out. I really like this lad. Will be a huge player for United over the next lot of years.

this has turned into a top thread

obviously Keane at Maine Road. I was there. Special night that was.

Scmeichel save and then Giggsy’s fantastic goal against Arsenal, F.A Cup semi at Villa Park. That whole treble year was just perfect. The season finished with Ole’s goal.

I remember when Blackburn were our big title rivals. Maybe 93/94 or 94/95. Home to Blackburn and Giggs put in a perfect cross to the back post which Cantona managed to reach and head into the top corner. The camera angle and the commentary for it was spot on. I’ll see if I can find a clip and I’ll post it.

Cantona at Sheff United in the cup. Delightful chip.

Cole’s overhead kick at Middlesboro.

Keano’s against dirty Leeds at OT.

They had an outfield player in nets, if I remember rightly?

All great goals.

Becks chip at OT against Sunderland. First goal, to make it 1 1.

Scholes got the winner in injury time. Trademark late into the box header!

Ididnotzeeit. I mentioned Hernandez against Everton a few posts back mate. Was tense as fuck that day till he scored. Nearly scored with a header a few minutes before.

@smartalex, willie

Hey guys. Yeah, lets hope Fletch gets back to his 09-10 form. It won’t happen straight away, but he will want to prove a point after missing out another Ch.League final.

King Eric says:
Keano at Maine road in three two. Good call Fly.

“Teletubby sack of shit“. Quality.

Cedars. Yeah John Sheridan United fan who took penalty.

Ididnotzeeit. Ronnie at Craven Cottage was 07 season.

The Fly, Also the best Giggs goal for me. But not my fave game in the end. Overmarrs ruined it for me with his antics that got keene sent off. Hate playing Arsenal as much as Barca because of the diving and gamesmanship. Still fair play that it was a game among games.

The Fly says:
Ronaldo’s counter attacking goal at the Emirates to cement our place in the final. The ridiculous dismissal of Fletch ruins that match slightly for me, but the goal itself is magic. Rooney and Ronaldo, don’t get better than that.

Roma 7-1

Giggs away at Juventus 02/03

Well this has been a great thread for the past few hours. So many memories and great moments. What a club. Scholes testimonial tomorrow can’t wait. Then roll on Sunday. Doesn’t get better than this.

Looking fwd to Sholes testimonial, I do wish Keano had had the same kind of exit…
