   Rooney is getting slaughtered by the press today about the elbow incident. This kind of exposure would not happen if it were any other team or player. If you look at the photo Mcarthy tries to block his path with a body check

    birmingham player was yards onside and szeszeny – or however he’s spelt – has taken him down in the box as the last man.
    should have been red and penalty.

    Real AB says:

    That was a fucking penalty and a Red Card Bowyer was about 2 meters onside…

    And they say United get favourable decisions..

    The commentrators are cunts. Just a small mention of it as if it was just a normal thing. If it was us they would have carried on for 24 hours after the game..

    Zelh says:

    RedScot – I think if they lose today it will fuck up their whole season
23. February 27, 2011 at 16:33

    RedScot says:

    @Zelth. I agree mate, thats what we said, it will knock their confidence.Bring it on you Brummies.
24. February 27, 2011 at 16:35

    RedScot says:

    That should have been two, Zigggie, to slow at shifting his feet

    RedScot says:

    Arsenal look totally rattled , brilliant
26. February 27, 2011 at 16:40

    RedScot says:

    Fuck it Van persie, scores. If anybody denies Wilshere is class they are an idiot.
27. February 27, 2011 at 16:44

    Costas says:

    I think the first comment bu gazzer was spot on. It’s not that Nani might not have completed 34 passes. It’s the ones he never made that I had an issue with. Something that’s easily fixed by the next time he plays.
28. February 27, 2011 at 16:50

    RedScot says:

    Another great save bye Foster, from Nasri
29. February 27, 2011 at 16:54

    Zelh says:

    If Arsenal is going to lose of course the ref is at fault despite the fact that the brummies should have get a penalty and a red card for the gk.
30. February 27, 2011 at 17:01

    RedScot says:

    Listen to Jamie Rednap, waxing lyrical about Arsenal and Van Persie, he is just jealous, and know’s there is a serious threat waiting for them.We shall see on the 30th of April, they present no threat to United Jamie.We are gonna destroy them

    Linvoy says:

    That incorrect offside decision is basically cheating! The linesman can clearly see he’s on yet gives it off… ridiculous…
32. February 27, 2011 at 17:13

    Costas says:

    City drew 1-1. Massive. Still in the title race. Where’s Alex Blue?
33. February 27, 2011 at 17:14

    Mic says:

    How many passes were in that final goal?
34. February 27, 2011 at 17:14

    RedScot says:

    @ Costas I already asked that you prick

    vILHELM28 says:

    These stats are partly acurate. First off wingers have half the field to play with (almost) secondly for the stats to be more acurate/fair – one should devide the passing into 2 categories; forward passing and backward passing.

    From looking at the diagrams the wingers have few backward passes, mostly forwards and some sideways. Forward passing is statistically more difficult but more creative and ofc more threatening (even important ?). Passing back to Vidic or Van der Sarr isnt and boosts ones passing.

    I am not implying that Scholes and Carrick pass backwards to boost their stats, I’m just saying that it’s a lot easier.

    Thought Nani played well yesterday. Looked like making things happen.
42. February 27, 2011 at 17:32

    RedScot says:

    I want extra time here, and then a Brummie late late Goal. Then for Leyton Orient to knock them out, of the Big Cup, then for them to be cream crackered to be knocked out bye Barthelona, of the prize they have in their sights, but will never win.Dreamers
43. February 27, 2011 at 17:37

    smartalex says:

    So, if Ben Foster wins another cup final, city could buy him, and put his medals in the trophy room. Hey, might as well start using the space.
44. February 27, 2011 at 17:37

    RedScot says:

    Thank you Ben another great save from Nasri, dont forget, I have not forgot ” Oh do shut up Ben”, and its meaning.

    Foster to pick up his 2nd Carling Cup trophy. He stepped up his game against Arsenal. Fabregas to leave for Barca next season? You betcha!

    Costas says:

    6 years.

    The Arsenal quadruple will lsoe two more legs on the week they travel to Barca and Manchester for the CL and the FA cup. And the only thing left, will be United clinching the league at the Emirates in May.

    Beautiful to witness that mouth piece Szcesny fuck up in style. he is always going on about us on twitter. Guessing he will be a little quieter now! Arse just thought they had to show up today. Hopefully this will put them on a downward slide. Roll on No 19
84. February 27, 2011 at 18:07

    smartalex says:

    With all the criticism and negativity that Ben receives, he has a lot more medals than most other Prem keepers. And cup finals, arguably are a keepers time to shine.

    Yes, well done Alex! Well done Scotland!

    Lee Bowyer smacking Koscielny on the back of the head after he messed up and was on the floor was a disgrace. Lee Bowyer is a fcukin cnut of the highest order.
