Manchester United thrashed West Ham today, despite having the most make shift defence I can remember us playing for some time. Tomasz Kuszczak played in goal, Darren Fletcher started at right back, Evra at left back, and Wes Brown played with Gary Neville in the centre, until our captain was injured in the first half and replaced by Michael Carrick in defence! Then Wes got injured and we finished the game with ten men.
Still, another four goals and with Chelsea facing City this evening, we’re two points behind them.

Gibson’s celebration is good to watch
Gibson’s celebration is good but dangerous, no? He could end up solskjaer’d.
Pretty good game from United’s point of view, playing almost without any true defenders in the 2nd half. Hopefully Rio and Nemanja will return very soon. Darren Gibson scoring again, what a week it has been voor the fella.. Scholes scored at exactly the right time and the 3 goals in the 2nd half were brilliant, completely stretching West Ham’s defensive line.
What a great result!! Even that Hammers were without top players like Cole or Upson we were without 7 defensers and lose another 2 during the game!!
Kuszczak is getting better and better, with that celebration he showed who was his childhood hero!!
Fantastic result, good to see us scoring plenty of goals at the moment. Just watching the highlights of the other games. That dirty, scouse, rat eating, dipper, Gerrard, upto his old diving tricks again, should have been booked for that.
Just watched the interview with Sir Alex, he said that he might play Carrick alongside with Vidic (who was out for a flu) for next week.
Empathic win. People say we are still not hitting our top gear, but today it was almost like our players were walking. Rooney and Giggs is marvellous. Rooney was everywhere, he was the true maestro today, dictating the play from everywhere! Giggs is evergreen.
Scholes showed to his successor, Gibson, how to do it. I think Scholes has realised, his successor has arrived, that’s why he said he is considering quitting at the end of this season.
Fletcher looked awkward at rightback today hahaha.
Sir Alex is brilliant.
Glory Glory Man United.
Always a pleasure to see goals from a counter attack!
You can hear that turbo just starting to whine can’t you?
Off to the bookies to see what odds I can get on De Leat and Tosic as centre back pairing before the end of the season! WHAT is going on???
It was a good game… from 45 min on!! I’m really concerned about our defence, I’m sure if we’re buying anything this january it’ll be a central defender… at least that’s what I’m hoping for!
Giggs was a bit shakey the first 10 but really got i right after that. Glad to see the lads getting a few goals in… they need to.
Let’s hope shittys form continues and it’ll be a draw ;o)
If City draw it will be a record breaking feat))))
what the fuck is this city wwf type enterance, what a fucking joke that side is… any way my man on the score sheet again, why is noone calling me names in the last few days for backing gibson, counter attack goal scholes goal coming from none stop pressure, gibsons goal got by a gear swith bursting attack by him and giggs and valencia(getting better all the time-the beatles) goal coming from a passing game with a cross from the side. apart from a header an og and an overhead theres not to many other goals you can score. now a quick shower cause i feel so dirty thinking come on city for that split city
Or Welbeck and Macheda perhaps?
Giggs and scholes were fucking awesome.At one stage in the first half we had possesion of the ball for about 10 minutes straight.
Hate Ballack, Drogba, Anelka, Deco. What a bunch of freaks.
@Corea lol City are record breakers!
@Mikael i think Sir Alex will not going to buy any CB in Jan, the closest is he will pull off another wonder signing like Henrik Larsson. That old man has a huge box of tricks. He will pull out another rabbit like he pulled Owen out of his hat.
damn…gibson!
Gibson should take over conducting shooting lessons for everyone at the club
Sigh, useless Citeh!
All 4 goals were class in their own right.
I’m happy as hell with the result.
Rentboys 1-0 up!
the back 4/5 ended up
pig
fletcher carrick giggs evra
clean sheet
Fookin citeh eh?
Valencia smiled after his goal! He actually smiled! What’s the official word on Wes?
We ask one simple thing from Shity and they can’t even do that…
That guy Gibson is great! Did you read that Real Madrid fans think they need reinforces???
hahahahaha
I wish them all go to hell!
I notice that unlike United players who very often in a landmark appearance celebrate it with a trademark goal, stevie me (tosser extrodinaire) marks his 500th appearance with a trademark starfish!
Giggs made his biggest fuck up of the season today and maybe his only fuck up of the season by a pass across uniteds box that went right to a west ham player, Then Giggs did the greatest steve bruce impression ever , city 1 all by the way
1-1. Well, well.
Yes, adebaywhore!! Go go go man citeh!!
Great result, well done United!
1-1 at the wastelands
COME ON SHITTY
chelsea got screwed ahahhaa im so happy:)
come shitty.. get a 2nd!!
I’ve never celebrated a city goal so much
@Rob the Red : Starfish hey? It’s only fitting!
1-1 i hear? Good news!
Wow, just seen the goals.
Great couple of strikes from Scholesy and Gibbo!
Silly argentine twat! Get on it!
Costas: Citeh putting good pressure on the rent boys,the better team. Matt Le Tissier on sky sports news must have said 5 or so times he could not believe he wasn’t booked for it……….Blatant! Who was it that said ‘it spoils the game and if somebody in my team did it I would have a word’???? Cheating Bastard.
Thanks Rob. At this point, i will take a draw from the Wastelands game.
As far as Stevie Me is concerned, what can i say? It’s in his blood. What a great year 2009 has been for him by the way. How he escaped jail is a miracle.
half time 1 a piece at wastelands
Maybe it’s written somewhere Shity’s 8 straight draw
tevez2-1
Yeah Tevez!! That’s one good thing you did today!
tevez ftw?
I almost cheered when that cunt scored
They don’t play like this against lesser teams…
A great win, last 45 min made up for the not so good first 45. Great strike from Scholes, the old man, and just about as perfect from Gibson, who i consider as Scholes succsessor.
So sweet to see those two last goals coming in two minutes, and especially with the attacking play that came along with the third goal.
Also good to see Wayne putting and keeping up his form:)
I did cheer TBH. Doesn’t matter who scores as long as it’s against Chelsea and they deserve it too
All part of Fergie’s master plan!
tevez! sign him up! (joke- don’t jump on me!)
This might be ‘another’ important Tevez goal in service of United
haha citeh 2 d rent boys 1 keep it up citeh
same old Tevez scoring when United need it the most
City to win the one that would benefit us? Fuck me, they’ll even losers in victory.
TEVEZZZZZZZ
If city screw this up I will hate them even more
@ Bebeto
True that! HAHA
Anyone seen tiny tears complaining bitterly when some decisions go against his team . Sore Loser
Carlitos!
Can’t believe i cheered a goal of his again
@Fze123
ill take a draw at the moment. IF chelsea score before the 90th min, they may go on to win this game.
however after 7 draws you feel shitty are due a win so hope they can hold on.would be great for us
this is turning out to be such a brilliant day
btw, any news on Wes? hope it’s not too serious 
The hammers didn’t pose much threat. As soon as scholsey hipt that shot I jumped up!! Gibbos strike ticking awesome. Can’t wait for motd!!
It only hard in the movies!! Hard in the movies!! It hard in the movies!
Rentboys lost and as sir alex said as longvas we see a point or so off themnits ours
@Costas
Hi mate.Ho are you?
ya .i too cheered teve’s goal.in all fairness i never had anything against him as a player. Always gave 100%. It was his bitching and moaning and contradictory statements that pissed me off.wonder why he didnt understand he wasnt worth all that money his owners were asking for him.
They’re kicking the shit out of each other at the moment. Good form.
So would I but if they lose it’ll be even better, we’ll be two points clear. I just hope they drop points anyway. The only way the rentboys could win this game is probably with the help of the fellow ref.
Btw I fucking hate drogba.
Fze123
at the moment even the ref seems to be against them . See how sore losers the chelsea cunts are. compaining and protesting every decision that goes against them. dont be surprised to see chelsea complaining about the ref if he dosent give them a favourable decision
Wes brown’s injury is a groin.
Nemanja vidic will return
He only had the flu
SHAY GIVEN IS A GENIUS!!! HOW DOES HE KEEP ON SAVING THEM
YES! SAVED
Sniper at Wastelands!
yay shay given!!!
Am I mistaken to believe that we are the only team to have beaten City this season?
@ aig alex is god
So is Kuszack
shitty must have got atleast 6-8 points only because of Given.really is a good goalkeeper
lampard is shit
of course the irish are doing nothing but good for united today
@Che Guevarist
you are right. we are the only team to have beaten them
Lampard ftw?
COME ON MISSED PK
you feel it was due for given. The lad had his dream of the world cup robbed from him.and in all fairness his consistency has been really good.
shit 5 mins added time
I think we’ve got the result we wanted!
“Fergie, sign him up” lol!
@AIG:
Hi friend. I am good, thanks. How about you?
This is turning into a good Saturday. You are right about Tev. On the pitch he truly gavw his all every time. I will never take that away from him. I just wish he had better people in his ear.
Corner to Chelski, c’mon Citeh hold on!
Love the comment on guardian.co.uk re. Fat Frank’s missed pen:
87 min: “See the dedication of Lamps,” chuckles Eliot Crowe. “The World Cup draw was only made yesterday and he’s already started practicing missing penalties…what a pro!” Malouda replaces Terry.
YES!!!!! 2 Points the gap and i hope all that trash talk of how good the rentboys are and that they are unbeatable comes to an end.
i fancy a chelsea jammy goal , prove me wrong shitty
The only team to have beaten City, that’s right. Primarily because a) Hughes has perfected the art of sitting off whenever his team go in front against lesser teams, and b) sitting off whenever they’re in a position to take a point from a ‘big’ game.
It wouldn’t have been any better today if Lampard’s penalty hadn’t been mediocre.
Who’s to say what going ahead and consolidating a lead against a big team will do to them? They’ll probably have a parade.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!1
Haha!! Drogba diving scum! That’s karma to you!
Yyyyeeessss! Citeh 2-1 Chelski
Great weekend for United!
and it is over.
YAZ
Tiny tears limps off………lets hope it is nothing trivial………………………horrible cunt!
who would have though. a breath of fresh air.
2 points diff.
Both halves of manchester are happy today
@Costas
i am good too
great saturday for us but we were due one i guess after all those decisions that went against us in the last month or so.2 points and with the african cup of nations coming up things dont look all that bright for the rentboys
Frank Lampard is the new Manchester hero!!
@AIG, like what SAF said a couple of weeks back, if we can be within spitting distance of Chelski by the new year we’ve got a fantastic chance of making it 19
crazy city game innit? how did Chelsea manage to finish with all players on the pitch! Fantastic day for us.. game on!
The commentator has said that Burnley, Hull are the reason why Shity isn’t in the top 4 right now. Pretty much true.
Rentboys still favourites??!! I hate to say this but the bitters outplayed them throughout the game the today. Tbh both teams played crap. Who cares anyway, we are two points behind. That’s all that matters.
hahahaha what a stupid game that was. 6 yellow cards for chelsea! hahahaha..
Drogba missed a sitter.. City celebrated that penalty save like they already win.. Tevez was so stupid, he should have laid the ball to Wright-Phillips but he tried from that acute angle himself. And then he should have passed to Adebayor, but i guess he didnt want Adebayor to get another goal, so made a stupid pass to Wright-Phillips. Even that free-kick was a lame freekick. LMAO!
The best of all, Tiny Tears is injured!
‘At the moment because of the team spirit we feel we are invincible’ tiny tears and his words of wisdom last week!………Wanker.
Great weekend! Now lets hope for some good news on our injury front.
@AIG:
I agree about Given. He is one of the best in England. Now lets see United pile the pressure even more!
Chelsea 36 points 37 scored 10 conceded
United 34 points 34 scored 13 conceded
We’ve cut the gap in GD. We are 2 points off the top by playing mediocre football. Not bad.
I was mocked on here during the summer when I said I see Gibson nicking Carrick’s spot sometime soon.
I still think that’s the case – he has such potential.
Chelsea fans all over the internet complaining about Webb shocker! Now they know how we felt when they cheated us out of the game.
@bchilds
yes . remember that chelsea have to come to OT next year.plusthey have not had any injury problems so far while we are having injury problems now rather than late in the season. Given that most of their team is 30 plus they will tire in the 2nd half of the season.add to that rio adn hargo to come back in jan and things are looking very bright for us
Today was a good day
:O)
thank you city!!! Nice to be from Manchester today!!
Nice to see Cech and Lampard loosing confidence, although we dont need it
@Micky
hi mate.Long time. Where have you been?.i remember you saying that. After that you have disappeared.hope you have been catching the matches
Micky: good call then pal, it could be on the cards, 3 goals in 2 games from midfield, how do you not pick him?
@Micky
Yea you coule be right there, having not been able to watch the game due to work how did Gibbo do in midfield? Have seen the goal but would like to know how be played!
@AIG
Thanks mate. Nice to know people still remember me!!
I’ve been on exercise (I’m in the armed forces). Caught most of the matches thankfully – nice to be back though.
I also got slaughtered for saying Macheda is a little bit shite. I still think that’s the case too!! Bet people aren’t coming around to that opinion just yet though!
At the moment Gibbo could beneft with a Darren Fletcher, Ando or Hargo doing the running for him. I think that eventually he will start dominating the midfield, but at the moment his strongest point is playing outside the box.
i’m gonna have a sweet dream now.
bye all
@Costas
I was having this arguement with my mate the other day and i honestly believe he is one of the best in the world , cant think of a keeper (bar VDS) that comes close to him in the premiership and Iker may be the only one better in the world ! pity he went to the wrong side of manchester. Must say Kuszczak has clearly shown what he can do between the sticks , bye bye foster
@Costas
Gibson is by no way the complete player or even close to it – but he’s showing massive potential. I really believe he’s going to be a cross between Scholes and Carrick.
I would half agree with you on Macheda Micky, he still has vast amounts of improving to do but I think he’s got a decent chance to being a goal poacher from the bench
@evras left boot :
I also lost some respect for Shay due to his reactiom after Bellamy equalised at OT. But truth be told, he is very good. And of course i agree about Kus. I am sorry for Ben, but he never took his chance like Kuszczak did.
@Micky:
I also see him as a crossover between the two. I just hope he is able to tackle and defend better.:P
Micky
of course i do mate. you did say that you would have no time till nov. good to have you back.
as for kiko i wont say he is shit(i remember you saying that and getting slated) but he clearly hasnt developed that much since his 2 goals last season.however being just 18 we have to be patient i guess. everyone cant bee wayne rooney at 18
You know what guys, when Drogba got the penalty after he fell down so dramatically.. I thought he would pull his supreme-difficulty-seizure-move.. man I was left disappointed.
@bchilds
I found it so bewildering that because he scored one amazing goal at a crucial time so many people thought he was going to be banging them in every game.
He got lucky.
I’m not saying he won’t be a big player, but we’re talking a few years at least.
@mickey
Gibson is shit
I got it all myslf my brother
him and fletcher is one to watch i think they work fantastic together
I wonder what the scouser times podcast have to say this times have to say this time on monday, who are a billion times worse than the guardian by 10 folds now. the europes greatest side is that right paddy barcley idiot, that is ageing every season that is not much better than last year. for that twat tony evans to have the nerve to say chelsea will win by 15 points is border line disgrace and a hatred of united, what made my day even more sweet hey tony how did your toothless 2 man team do oh yea 1 and half man team in shitty liverpool do oh yea dropped more points.
and that collymore saying fletcher is not fit to lace gerrards boots what a joke he is, and he said chelseas overated english players will pick up league medals despite the fact the ronaldo less united have torn another side apart I bet that annnoyed him, and his article a phew days ago or a week ago that united have not got the talent to overtake chelseea despite the fact we have beaten this lot when they were a year younger what makes them much better this time round.
@AIG
Cheers buddy.
Carlo Ancelotti should play his first team players again on tuesday to get the ready for the christmas period like he did mid week, works out very well for them today
@GHTT
i hope you meant Gibson *is the shit ! he’s looking very powerful in the center , need someone to shoot from midfield once scholes parts with us
@TheRadLegion
It was the usual OTT tumble from Dogbreath but, in fairness, it was a penalty. His miss late on was comical!
Liverpool what a joke.
I’m so happy today and yet angry at those people who kept writing us off. Some say this is the beginning of the end. But when Liverpool drew again today, what would they say about them? I bet it was the Torres factor again. Before this season started they were so happily saying that this year was Liverpool.. where are they at right now. Friggin 7th, yeah that’s where they friggin are right now.
Liverpool is just a shitty team, I hope they get relegated next season.
rooney the new king
collybore said that after blackburns win during the week that a clean sheet is a fantastic result for them and nil all is a great result because blackburn are looking to be on a role. . . . . . . . . should liverpool not be trying to get a role going after a very good win against Everton derby rivals and a very tough tough game that everton put up. liverpool should of went out full of convedence and gave 100% due to the mid week game is pointless and there kids could play it. . .what a wanker
bchilds: yes, it was a clear penalty, but man he just had to do it dramatically didn’t he?
I thought it was a bit fishy though. There was a bit of a gap between the tackle and the dramatic getting shot by sniper act.
didnt tony evans say liverpool would finish above united this season LOL that twat is def someone who has lost all credibility now he is a total clown a joke rob smith is still rebuilding his credibility, someone has got to give the twat scouser tony evans a nick name or even call him a bitter apple because thats what he is. there is that saying fool me twice shame on you fool me 7 or more times shame on me thats the media. the media are like drunken idiots who keep betting on the same horse say its blue saddle, despite the fact the red saddle horse keeps winning and winning and what ever they lose they keep winning, sooner or later they got to stop betting on the petender and start backing the champion horse who actually do what the horse they bet on would do but failed to do.
evras left boot
sorry mate I didnt fully write what I ment I read fom many many people before the midweek game
@Gotta hate tiny tears
have to disagree Gibson is shite and wount make it blah blah blah bollox. long time readers of my comments can tell ya ive ben high on darron for as long as I can remember. It has alot to do with me paying attention to an Irish Midfielder playing for Manchester United .was excellent in reserves excellent at wolves back to been excellent in reserves and now has been given a chance to step up and be counted and thats an opertunity that he seems to be grabbing by the bollox. . .
I’m sure there’ll be plenty of critics that will write us of time and time again before the seasons up, just makes it even more sweeter when we lift number 19!
Anybody got a link to footage of the Gerrard dive? According to a few dippers, it was a stonewaller. If it’s as bad as people have made out, I can only wish that such biased cunts would learn how to accept when their players have embarrassed their team.
Has Saint Stevie been diving again? Surely not!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ptFwxyk3kRw&
Bebeto sorry mate that link is for a darron gibson chant
not a link you were looking for
what do the media fernando torres and alan shearer all have in commen they all kept choosen the wrong team. I am going overboard beause I want to enjoy this moment, I still am in stitches how tony evans and paddy backley all said chelsea would win the league by christmas. to even think a side that quiet alot of their players is on the wrong side of 30. people forget for united it only took for other players to step up and they will keep winning.
anyone hear on radio 5 live that shitty fan saying only city and arsenal in the coming seasons would be winning trophys and this arsenal side would blow everyone away yea how did arsenal do last week, ppl please tell me how many years have ppl said arsenal would be the next big thing 5 6 7 years, remember fool me 3 times shame on you fool me 7 or more times shame on me that goes for arsenal is well and shitty.
http://www.liverpool-kop.com/2008/04/rafa-slams-drogba-for-diving-but-steven.html
dippers turning on st. stevie of me
The media are a fucking disgrace lads. You can almost taste the bitterness permeating through the airwaves. Alan Green was fucking gutted that the rentboys lost. All the dipper pundits are now rentboys. He was even more gutted when hammers fans called in and said that “United were different class”. Two points in it and has the rot set in? As you know me and many others on here have been sick of the Chelski love in. Durham the cunt tonight was saying that our result means nothing as West Ham were that poor. You can only play what is in front of you you ginger cunt. If it had been Chav’s hammering a poor team it would have been the hallmark of champions. Gotta hate I heard Stan trying to put a spin on the dippers result that at least they kept a clean sheet! Had to check out LFC tv. They are suicidal on there but again keep harping back to the “clean sheet”. They reckon they need a “top” striker like Cole or Pavlychenko” in January. Funniest thing is the FSW STILL hasn’t introduced Aquilani. What the fuck? I bet Drogba and Tiny Tears and all the fucking media are really starting to regret writing United off and handing out the trophy to the Russian Mafia in November. Cocky arrogant bastards.
Great result today considering the line up. Just watch the media do a u turn and start bigging United up. I have remembered everyone who has wrote United off and if we do win it in May I will be phoning everyone of them personally.
oh just watched the irish match of the day and I cannot believe the stevie me starfish. an example needs to be made monday morning really. People were calling for Henry to get kicked out of the world cup because he cheated. well that was cheating .
gotta hate – The best one is the bottom one on that link you put up. The crowd are saying “you should have dived there Stevieeeeee Lad”. “He should have dived and got a penalty”. Even their fans know what the cunt is like.
Brilliant showing by the lads and great opportunity seized by Gibson – thank the manager for picking you with a goal.
The makeshift defense sounded dodgy in theory, but like true professionals, Fletch and Carrick did their part for the cause.
If there was one thing to pick on (I could be mistaken though) – it seemed like Neville was upset when he saw that Carrick was coming on for him. He looked like he shouted some negative stuff to the bench area regarding the sub choice… or maybe it was just frustration at being injured again? Anybody else get that feeling?
tiny tears – Whats the betting the dive isn’t brought up on match of the day? They will just sweep it under the carpet.
The goals by Scholes (left-footed) and Gibson were what you’d have to call “that’s why we’re champions strikes”; the other two were an example of putting a beaten team to the sword – and about bloody time, too.
The way in which Zola set up his team was an invitation to let Scholes roll back the years and dominate – he accepted that invitation most graciously.
My only negative about that performance was Anderson’s failure to grab-the-game- by-the-balls and put on a show. He’s supposed to be an attacking midfielder but was rather too tentative for my liking – he was much, much better in mid-week against Spurs when he ran the show. I’m a big, big fan of Anderson but I think we’ve only seen glimpses of his real quality. I would imagine that a young player like Anderson is somewhat “confused” by his job-description, which seems to change on a game-by-game basis, whereas veterans like Fletcherinho, Carrick, and, of course, the evergreen Scholes and Giggs just go about playing football.
denton – I haven’t seen all the game but from what I have seen Anderson played well. Some of his defence splitting balls were top drawer. Getting better by the game and to think he is only 21 is frightening. Looks like he is getting the form back of 2 seasons ago aside from his Besiktas display.
Everyone keeps going on about how the Rentboys have such a strong squad. Would they have coped with EIGHT defenders out?
was anyone watching the Real Madrid game? lol ronaldo dived, missed a penalty and benzema scored from the rebound. spoilt ronnie didn’t even celebrate, but when he scored 5 mins later, he whipped his shirt off. soon after, he got punched by one of the almeria players, kicked him, got a 2nd yellow and was sent off…and is now missing the game against Valencia….lol, as awesome as it was having ronaldo on our team, it was also infuriating at times
@King Eric
Great post mate, I love it when the United vs The World mentality sets in. Ferguson is the master at using it to our advantage and do so he will!
Oh and there’s NO chance of the Stevie Me dive being highlights on MOTD, none!
bchilds – Cheers mate. Yeah you cannot beat a bit of the old siege mentality at Old Trafford. Ancelotti won’t know what has hit him come the winter months when UNited hit top gear and Fergie is playing his little games.

Just watching Football First now as I wasn’t able to see the game earlier, sounds like chants of “USA, USA, USA” coming from somewhere.
Can anyone confirm if it was United fans singing it in support of any team that plays Ingurland at the World Cup or was it WHU fans chanting it taking the piss out of the Glazers?
Or, I could be completely mistaken but clarification would be welcome!
Gibson goal is superb. If he can create chances than he definitely will be able to play week in week out. Now i can only see Giggs being the spark. We definitely need to find more who can create chances cause giggs won’t be playing every match.
bchilds – Haven’t seen it yet on football first but will let you know. I know United fans love singing anti england songs at Upton Park so maybe so. Haven’t heard it before though. Can’t see it being West Ham. Will get back to you at some point.
bchilds, definitely United fans chanting it. Aside from the odd rendition of their bubbles song, there wasn’t a peep from ‘Ammers fans all game.
kel – We have Fletch, Scholes, Carrick, Ando, Rooney, Berba, Valencia etc etc. Loads of players who can provide a spark and score goals.
This isn’t a dig at you but bloody hell! Some fans are NEVER satisfied.
Giggsys contribution this season so far has been phenomenal, am I right in thinking that’s 10 assists so far? Crazy statistic!
Gibbo’s goal was superb, even more so because the ball was bobbing along on its way to him. Could have easy ballooned the shot over the bar!
Cheers for clearing that up Bebeto!
United>England
Re: Alan Green:
I was astonished no-one got on to 5 live after what this prick said to a City supporter. A regular-ish caller to his phone-in he’s got a kind of rapport with her. Digs at Ferguson and United are a feature of their little tete-a-tetes together. But tonight he went too far.
This woman gave out the usual guff about “prawn sandwiches” never appearing at Eastlands, citing the record attendance there today and then saying what a great week City had had, including the League (I still call it that) Cup victory over Arsenal U-15s.
Spouting on how it only cost kids £1 entrance last Wednesday she went on to say she took her 2 sons with the only drawback being they are both fans of United. And you know what that twat Green said?
With a Greeny chuckle-chuckle he said: “Oh, nooo, you should have drowned them at birth” (words to that effect anyway). And the daft cow chuckled along with him.
Imagine him saying something so unthinking about another club and its young fans? No, neither did I.
what a signing valenicas turned out to be aye??
@Norton
That’s fucking terrible, when are the beeb going to grow some balls and sort this dickhead out!
bchilds – no matter what you say about the recent-vintage Giggs is never enough. For the past three/four years he’s been simply awesome. But, before Evra appeared on the scene, Ryan was having problems replicating his earlier form as an out-and-out winger. I think that when Patrice Evra began to gel in UTD’s first-team, Giggs’ game began to subtly shift to the kind of deep-lying forward-play we’re seeing today. The meshing of the Evra/Giggs (or Evra/Ronaldo and, hopefully – coming soon – Evra/Nani) linkage down the left side is one of UTD’s great strengths.
No one is going to “replace” Ronaldo but, dammit, Valencia has done one helluva job in reorganizing the way the team plays – and helped the right side to give the team more balance. And, he’s done that while playing with a truly make-shift set of full-back partners. Fantastic signing.

did you hear that city fan on radio 5 live with alan green he said only arsenal and man city will be challenging for the major trophys in the coming years is he delluded or drunk or just and idiot propably all 3 combinbed and a wum, what an idiotic foregn manchesster pothead what was that old saying with arsenal wait till you watch this young side go in the next phew years. how many times have people have played that record over and over with arsenals tots they are the next big thing.
rooney the new king – No I didn’t hear that bit , I was flicking between that and Talkshite. Only 2 weeks ago Cundy was saying how the Rentboy’s will not get beat. That’s twice in a week you cocky bastard.
Norton – Alan Green should not be allowed on the radio. . I thought he was very critical of Citeh today and was almost willing the chav’s to win. It is pretty obvious he has given up on his beloved dippers and moved on to the Rentboys. Typical behaviour of an abu.
Talkshite were no better with Collymore and Durham. Just like last week when Stan couldn’t credit United with the result, instead he just said that none of the United midfield would get near the rentboys today Durham couldn’t give credit. He was saying that they were getting alot of emails and texts saying UNited will win the league (prior to the chelsea v citeh game) but this result meant nothing. That West Ham were awful, which they were but you can only beat what is in front of you as the cliche goes. He never mentioned the fact that we finished with a back four of Fletch, Carrick, Evra, Giggs. How would the super powerful best team in Europe Chelsea cope with EIGHT defenders out? Premature cunts. Handing out the title in November. A long way to go and Ancelotti will see what being in a race with Fergie and United is all about.
Norton – United fans should petition the BBC and say we are offended. This may be one step too far for the fat horrible bastard.

oh rite its like how many times have ppl over hyped this powderpuff arsenal side and its becoming a big comedy joke with arsenals girls. it is just hilerious people keep saying oh united wont do much, well they got to look at the challengers and they are not great, and united players must be thinking this chelsea side way better than us are they kidding me. they are an ageing side who have not got the legs 2 get away from united and by expect united to pull away.
alan green is not so bad but the rest are priceless durham collymore tony twat evans are nnow a total joke, the ronaldo card will always be used and it is pethetic and king eric hearing stan collymore saying fletcher cant lace gerrards boots today yea right what an idiot he is, tell me stan look at fletchers medal collection and performences and benitez would choose fletcher over gerrard in CM thats a fact collymore, gerrard is not even fist choice in CM liverpool fletcher is for united and thats a fact. and oh it gets better in collymores article you read it king eric flecher not in essiens league, can someone tell me what is so great about essien overated player, so look at fletchher vs essien, essiens goals assists and work rate is no better than fletcher and I would say fletcher is better, oh yea fletcher will be available not in african nations cup. when he thinks joe cole is a better player than ryan giggs now we know this guy has lost the plot.

stan collymores most insane part that I have no clue which is more funny south park or this quote from stan collymore it is hilerious But when I saw the champions’ team-sheet I couldn’t help but feel that Michael Carrick, Paul Scholes, Darren Fletcher and Ryan Giggs wouldn’t get a sniff of action regularly for title rivals Chelsea
rooney is the new king – He is a joke pal. I read that “article”. So he reckons the most decorated player in football and one of the finest midfielders of the last 15 years couldn’t get in to the rentboy’s starting line up? Does he really believe what he is saying do you think? The likes of Lampard and Ballack and Deco are not fit to lace Fletch’s boots never mind the two legend’s. Where was Lumpards bottle when the pressure was on? These fucking rentboys will not have the heart or bottle if it comes down to a run in. United are hungrier than ever to over take the dippers, get the historic 4 on the trot and prove all the doubters and abu’s wrong. As good a player as Essien is in my opinion he is no better than Fletcher. I honestly mean that. These kind of biased bitter idiots shouldn’t be allowed to broadcast. How many of them do you see siding for United? Fuck all. Ronnie Irani calls himself a United fan, then the next week a Bolton fan. He is always banging on about Chelsea. Plastic cunt.
King Eric
ballack deco they are way past their best along with terry and cech. and they have never done the buisness in the prem. lampard is still good but gibson is coming into his own, what if gibson gets better starts scoring 12 to 15 goals does that mean he is ahead of fletcher has first choice in uniteds midfield no but he is getting better. and for starters what united are doing in inhuman add injurys players left players bedding in etc etc its insane what united are doing and with little credit from the plasic media idiots, best team in europe my ass.
Can I just ask where the da silva twins were? Cause with all the injuries how the hell did neither make the bench?
Fucking hell what does gibson put on them boots?? Go on son, let it rip. Fucking brilliant goal. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed a goal that much since Scholesy sent us to Moscow. He scores goals my lord, he scores goals.
Actually, i’m stating the problems we had. Very seldom did those player you mention create chances. They are good players but to me only giggs is able to create chances out of nowhere. Others players is taking chances when comes to them. That is a problem for us. If we had 2-3players creating chances then we will be very dangerous. Berbatov can create chances as well.
if Fergie is worried about the defense, he should play De Laet rather than just putting midfielders or Gary Neville into the positions. The young boy will do a much greater job i reckon.
What happened to brown? who is paying in defense now against wolfs burg, not to mention aston villa in 1 week.
half our defense came form midfield and we still hammered the hammers 4-0. pure class.
What a match…Lampard is such a retard for his penalty but chelsea deserve it from being ass wipes
mufcdevils : Half? We had only Evra as regular the last minutes… as centre back!! ;o)
SAF said he’ll play Carrick with Vidic (if he’s fit) against Wolfsburg.
Great goals, I think Gibson should be given an all clear to fire when ready! He’s proven he’s got a mighty shot… really Scholeseyesque ;o)
PIG has been doing well between the sticks and I’m not as nervous with him on the team sheet now… that’s a good feeling.
Let’s enjoy a night in europe on tuesday!!!
@ King Eric
you get angry when you read those idiots but there is no point. let them say what they want. it’s better to be outsiders ))
great shot by gibson. original game of man utd.
King Eric & bchilds:
I’ve often enough sent e-mails to 606 while Green has been hosting. They never get acknowledged. The reason being I suppose, that I can’t help being vitriolic about him regarding many issues. The majority covering his persistent snide remarks on United and Ferguson.
Over time there’s no unrelated (to United and Ferguson) subject I can think of where he’s not managed to drag both into it somehow, never mind when the topic concerns them.
On your suggestion, King E, we’ll see.
