When asked about interest from Manchester City this summer, Ashley Young has admitted they wanted to sign him, although he had no interest in joining them once Manchester United made a move for him.
“That’s true, but as soon as I heard about Manchester United there was no other club for me,” said Young. “It’s Manchester United. They are the biggest club in the world, and I think if you ask anyone who they want to play for the majority will say: ‘Man United.’ The fan base, the team and what they have won in the past is amazing. I want to be part of that – and be able to bring the title back to United again and make history with a 20th. I feel I have settled straight away into the team, which for a club the size of Manchester United isn’t easy. But I believe in my ability and feel it was easy to fit in, especially as I know some of the boys and the team spirit they have.”

Top comment from a top lad. Ya baby, we are all that!
Send this to Pogba
Send this to Tevez, Nasri and Hargreaves!
pognag you cunt
It’s a young mans game. Ashley will prevail in the end.
YOUNG YOUNG YOUNG,
FOREVER YOUNG.
WillieRedNut @ 23:43: ” Ashley will prevail in the end.”
Maybe – but he’d better learn to use his left foot and drive-to-the-bye-line, too; otherwise, I’d prefer Nani on the left and the one-footed (but more direct) Valencia on the right.
p.s., I’ll bet he’s hearing Ravel Morrison’s footsteps, too.
Less talking. More playing. Get your form back, Ash!
No need to pour fire on Ashley! The lad will be smoldering again!
Agree with Devil310,
Talk is cheap, might as well get his form back. Stop those Bebe-like crossings, its terrible.
Fair play to the Youngster. Needs a kick up the arse to get him playing well again though. Valencia and Nani again at QPR please.
Class act the lad is!
hes just speaking the truth
One look at City and said fuck off..
Like him a lot can be at his best
at the perfect time crimbo
and u deserve to be here ashley…..c’mon and bring the 18 jersey’s magic back to OT!
Dipped in form and still has jury out on him, probably better to walk the walk rather than talk, same applies to the other players too. Can they put their head down and keep playing well.
And i knew the agent was behind the pogba’s contract issues, lets hope Fergie going public works and pogba signs a new deal because potentially, he could be a great player. the guy needs more games, should be in the team more often but to be honest pogba should listen to Fergie, playing for manchester united is the optimum, money can come later.
Off topic
I have to say I am very impressed with our youth academy player Jack barmby. Man he is a perfect example of what an attacking midfielder should be like. King Eric can tell more about him as he is the one who keeps eye on our young players.
Even before he lost some form, I hated the part where he holds the ball when people are waiting in the box or when the fullback overlaps and he doesnt give him the ball hence no advantage from that.
never stops trying.that’s what i like about him.he may not be the most skillful player in our squad but he makes it up with his hard work and determination.that is the thing i want to see in a united player.always prompting and probing.leaves the defender in a hassle,pushes himself all the time.he hasn’t got quick feet like nani but always tries to get past his man.just needs to find his game that’s all.
Smart lad. Got his head on his shoulders. The Russians and Arabs of this world can always try to buy themselves the EPL. But in the end United always comes out on top. So the smart move will always be to come to United.
Morning RoM. *Big yawn* Is it QPR demolition time yet???

Cheers for that link, a bit of an old one but still a classic song!
Cedars, they play hard to get.
right decision ashley!!!!!!
Avishek – if it’s hardworking and determined players you want then we can find that anywhere, workman like mentality can only get you so far on a footbal pitch because you also require quality. We need players of class that will make a difference not headless chickens.
Young has done nothing yet to brush aside the sceptics, consistency and match winning performances may change that though. Lets not forget, we’re supposed to be getting an experienced player at his peak, people act like he’s just bursting through from academy.
have we tried playing Young on the right??
Would like to see Young play in the ‘hole’ Its a very important position! hahaha
kevin – They do indeed
Young on the right doesnt work… havent you tried fm
Morning lads,
I’ve just had a proper look at the fixture list this month (I know i’ve taken my time), but it seems more horrific than usual to me. Fatigue is always a major factor at this time of the year, but with all our injuries this could be a difficult time for us indeed……
Wonder what you guys think about the latest developments in the Evra/Suarez hearing? Verdict delayed until Tuesday and most of the facts have been leaked.
Evra was called Negro which Suarez admits and his defence is that of ‘cultural differences’. Yet, as the only saying goes ‘Ignorance of the Law can be no excuse’. Liverpool FC have appearently employed linguistic/cultural experts to defend Suarez but imo this will only serve to mitigate the punishment.
I don’t think it is my United bias talking whenever I say that I expect a guilty verdict. And I am definitely not biased whenever I think about the sentence. Considering the FAs attack on Blatter you would think that Suarez, if found guilty, would suffer extraordinary severe consequences. But if Suarez was ‘inadvertently’ racist then his sentence should be much less.
On reflection I can’t help but feel that Liverpool FC have done a massive disservice to football in this case. Rather than attacking Evra and defending Suarez with fighting talk perhaps they could have built a bridge by admitting the wrong and giving the reasons for it. Of course Liverpool FC are not an institution known for taking responsibility so sadly the stakes have been raised.
The strange thing about Liverpool FCs legal position on this is that to defend the use of the word negro based on cultural differences it implies that at some level the word could be construed as racist. After all why go about defending the word if it does not need to be defended? So there is an unintentional admission in there. And with that surely they could have understood long before now how evra could genuinely have taken offence.
Yet they trash his character instead?
Pratyush – Nice one mate
“Samir is a champion, he’s a top, top player,” said Mancini, whose second anniversary as City’s manager falls on Monday. “He can do more but when you change teams you can have a problem. Samir didn’t play against Chelsea, he didn’t play against Manchester United. I would like him to play better because, in my opinion, he is a really top player. Maybe his confidence is not very good but, if he plays Sunday, he has a chance to show what he can do.”
Good Morning.
I find this Mancini character more and more annoying. I tend to disagree with everything he says and I don’t rate him at all as a manager or person. He talks about Nasri needing confidence. A player that needs games in order to find form, then suggests he might play him against his old club, possibly instead of Toure.
“If Yaya and Kolo Touré come back from Africa and we are still top then we will win the title,”
He then takes a swipe at Wenger:
Mancini accepts that, to remain in charge of City he must keep winning trophies but admires Arsenal’s loyalty to Arsène Wenger after six years without silverware. “Surviving that would be impossible for me here and it would be impossible in Italy,” he said.
“In the next six years we will win a lot of trophies but Wenger is still a great manager because of the way his teams play football. Sometimes, there are reasons why great managers can’t win”.
There must also be reasons why a fucking smarmy charlatan that evidently knows nothing about pre-match mind games, man management, instilling confidence in players or speaking proper fucking English without using the word, ‘moment’ every bloody sentence finds himself being paid so well. What the fuck is his management style? Scary boss? No – his players don’t look scared of him and he looks scared of Balotelli when telling him off. One of the lads type Boss? No – he always makes snide remarks about his players via the press and tries to publicly humiliate them on the touch line. You look at Ole Gunnar on the touchline – hardly changes his expression, giving the impression that the players on the pitch know what’s expected of them. I think this is the style of management that Mancini is trying to portray, but the players are there for the money. He knows it and they know he knows it. I doubt the players listen when he speaks. I reckon the atmosphere in training there is like a bunch of spoilt brats at detention. Whereas at United it’s like a university class where much is learned because all the people actually want to be there. I fucking hate that we lost 6 to these cunts.
@brett1985
All I can say is I’m eager to hear the verdict. Suarez called Evra a “Negro” or “Negrito” ten times. Having seen Evra was offended when he uttered the word for the first two or three times, he should have realised what he had been saying was wrong and apologised. Since he did not do this, he is either (a) a racist or (b) a stupid racist.
Suarez’s intentions are irrelevant, he should be punished either way. If they don’t punish him, and I have a strong feeling they won’t, it says much about the FA.
Above all, you have to hate Liverpool for what they are: racist defending scum.
Brett
Top post mate and I fully agree, but never expected anything else of Liverpool. Doglesh spouting on about the case at every opportunity with blatant disregard for the process.
Xol
Loved your rant mate. That guy truly is a classless smarmy cunt! Can’t wait to win the 20th. Bought Nasri because we wanted him now doesn’t know what the fuck to do with him!!

@Cedars
Hi mate. You mean our league campaign hey? Having dropped 9 points, it’s our 3rd best start in the Pr.League years. 93-94 comes first with 5 dropped points and 06-07 comes second with 7 dropped points.
Costas
Cheers pal, ya that is what I meant you stat genius…. Thanks buddy….So not doing too badly are we after all!
However what is the Pr.League? hahahaha
Cedars
Morning pal. Which red meat dish did you plump for in the end? Tasty I hope. Whichever you went for. When you come over next year you’ll be fit and ready for a few drinks too!! James may have moved from Sandwich to Chedder. If he gets himself into a pickle he’ll have himself a nice snack.

Morning Smartalex
I hope to radiate vibrantly this weekend with goals goals goals fuelling my radiance! On Young, would love to see him do more of what he did against West Brom when our friend O.G got on the end. Take it to the bye line and drill in some crosses. Jus recently he’s been floating crosses in from the angle taking nobody out of the game. Just a thought.
sachu – Absolutely I accept your apology! Thanks for clearing that up. I’ve been wondering what the hell was going on. I’m relieved to know that our sachu will be bringing his love of United to the RoM table.
Looking forward to tomorrow’s game?

United YC team to face Derby County YC team in the next round.
This team beat Arsenal’s YC team in the previous round. Quite impressive. Let’s hope our kids can get past these giant-killers.
FIFA has threatened to
suspend Switzerland from
world football if its national
association fails to discipline
litigious club FC Sion by 13
January.
Sion has breached football’s
rules by launching a series of
civil court actions against
UEFA since being expelled
from the Europa League.
The club opted to field six
ineligible players in their
Europa League qualifying ties
against Celtic in August.
“Should this deadline not be
respected, the Swiss FA will be
automatically suspended
from 14 January 2012
onwards,” the FIFA statement
read.
If the suspension takes effect
FC Basel will be prevented
from playing Bayern Munich
in the Champions League
round of 16 in February.
The Swiss champions
progressed ahead of
Manchester United in the
tournament, and any ban is
likely to see the English giant
reinstated.

Could it be?
samuel
when it comes to young he is kind of a squad player than a flashy one like nani.we can find hardworking players but finding a player who completes our squad in terms of our playing is not easy.he can us his left foot as well as the right one and we didn’t have somebody to play on LW where nani has repeatedly been frustrating and valencia who is one footed.i think thats why saf bought him.what i meant by my previous comment was that although he is not as skillful as nani and may be less technically able but he always tries his heart out even if he is having an off day.he has only played for couple of months.earlier in the season when we were scoring for fun he did ok for me.he showed that he has got pace,can deliver good crosses,can shoot,improve set plays and is our natural choice to play in the LW position,also he is acquainted to the premier league style of playing
and i know his recent form has been poor after recovering from injury.we just need to have a little patience.
i know this will not satisfy your arguement but to each it’s own i guess.
It’s patently unfair to punish FC Basle for what FC Sion may have done. More bullshit from Fifa and Uefa’s desire to see their marketing poster boys Rooney & Co in the Champions League.
Works for us though. Still, how can we win a competition we’ve been knocked out of?
They punished every other English club for Liverpool’s fans misbehaviour in Europe? Not the same as this, but still….
Smartalex
Don’t know why young has changed his style? Don’t get me wrong, Nowt wrong with putting the ball in from the angle, beckham made a career out of it but he put those balls in early catching the opposition on the back foot, young takes his time and the defence gets set and subsequently clear the ball easily. Would like him to mix it up, keep the full back guessing.
Regards FIFA’s threat, will never happen. The amount of disruption to fixtures already organised, ticketing, policing etc etc. It would be chaos!!
smartalex Mike
I wouldn’t want to win it like that either. You can blame us for not being good enough to qualify, for the next round. You cannot, however, blame us for FC Sion’s predicament. Every club should know the rules by now.
Mikekelly12
In the first few games this season, Evra took flak from some for his perceived role (or lack thereof) in conceded goals. Actually, careful analysis showed that Young needed to adapt to our requirements, as we chose to have Evra play a big part on attack. It was also clear that Young’s general defensive understanding needed improvement. He has worked hard, and I have seen his improved participation defensively in the left-side partnership that he shares with Evra on attack and defense. It’s fair to say he has been less potent on attack. Perhaps his reluctance to head for the by-line is a side-effect of the program United have chosen to iron out his defensive deficiencies. A seemingly safe option to him, as he stands over the ball wanting to step on the gas and fearful of neglecting other duties, is to whip the ball in to a dangerous position, yet that is easily repelled. All this I say safely in the knowledge that you are aware it is only the idle musings of a distant fan.
I’ll bet United would love to start him at left back for a couple of the Europa games.
WillieRedNut
We’d be participating fairly under the rules, but a diminished and tarnished win it would be.
If it happens, so be it. No different to the Europa, in that we’re in it to win it. I won’t wish for it.
Well I for one hope it doesn’t happen. It won’t feel right seeing us in the Ch.League knowing it was due to a technicality. Basel deserve that spot, not us.
Basel for the Champions League! Come on, win it!
We’ll meet you again in the European Super Cup – Winners take all!
One of the rare players with a brain. Still don’t know how SIlva signed for shitty. He doesn’t exactly seem like the mercenary type, but ya never know with the outward appearance. They must have put “You’re signing for Manchester”, and the poor fella got cheated. Sheesh.
About the CL possible re-entry, quite nonsensical actually. We don’t deserve it, and it’ll be terrible if that happens tbh.
Smartalex,that’s a good analysis of Young. I was dismayed when he never helped Evra the day City were at OT. If he has been asked to improve his defence good. He should learn to balance.
Cedars,did the bird dump you as you started to dig into the stake?
FC Sion are gone. forever pariah’s in Fifa’s world.
- In 2009 FIFA imposed a one-year transfer ban for FC Sion breaking transfer regulations in the signing of goalkeeper Essam El-Hadary.
- FC sion signed 6 new players anyway, registered them in Switzerland and played them.
- Uefa booted them from the Champions League for playing ineligible players.
- FC Sion sued Uefa, but the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld UEFA’s right to kick Sion out of the competition based on FIFA’s transfer sanction.
- Now Fifa is insisting that the 6 players be de-registered retro-actively, so all matches played by FC Sion using any ‘unregistered’ players would be null and void.
‘As a consequence, all matches in which the relevant players participated shall be declared forfeit or three points shall be deducted respectively,’ FIFA said.
Goodbye FC Sion!
I’m gonna be Iron like a Lion in Sion (repeat)

Anderson looks like one of fiends out of New Vegas?
Ha, tell me about it. He looks like a gangster!
I concur on something
We do not deserve our CL spot – we have only ourselves to blame for being knocked out of it especially when you consider that the two teams who have qualified ahead of us; we were comfortably beating them and then just threw it away.
Basle deserve to be there and deserve a chance to beat Bayern hell win it but that would just be a tall order admittedly on both accounts.
For this year we should heed an important lesson and observe some fucking humility for a change and get back to the top from the bottom.
There is a lot of work to do – with the team getting injured players back and finding those that will make United better again.
So let’s just do that first before we do anything else.

I totally agree
Look on the bright side at least they are dressed like Gentlemen unlike another team down the road…
Young surprised me early in the season. I wasn’t all that excited by his signing, and in his first fe games, he over-delivered against my low expectations. Now his form has dipped and he’s playing much more in line with what i expected. But having seen what he can do, gives me some hope.
I’ve just heard on radio:
Newcastle with Obertan causing all sorts of problems
Bless…
Fifa has realised tht the europa league wil nw hav more viewers ths season and hav given manchester united a lifeline 2 possibly get bk to where they are “NEEDED”
Morning Reds i’ve wondered if the move to Utd and his great start might have mentally drained him,i’ve no doubt he’ll come good again also his dip in form coincides with Utd tightening up the style of play.His best football was when Utd were playing fast and loose.
Get IN Reading!
Afternoon all
hi Cedars ….you old bastard
Well, Denmark won the Euro Championships after qualifying from Hungary’s disqualification or something like that?
We won it in 1999 when we were what 2nd in 1998, when the rules first changed to include 2nd spots – people were talking about it not being Champions in CL?
So if that had to happen, it’ll happen. Personally, I don’t think UEFA would benefit much MORE from United’s participation in the CL. This was a perfect opportunity for them to hype up EL.
TonyBee
Hey up pal! Been well I hope old man?
yeah mate steady as a rock…..just pining for Moses & LUFC to come and have a go….could do with a good fucking rant…
They need not be here for you to rant away, if you have a decent rant in you let t rip pal
I would not put any hope on a European U turn and I agree with Costas, we frankly do not deserve it… Let us just focus on the Europa and do the job against Ajax
@YorYor
It was Yugoslavia, not Hungary.
I don’t think we deserve quite frankly to be re instated into this competition and if it was up to me I think that any team that crashes out of the Champions League should not be entered into the Europa cup,they should be out of Europe altogether.As for Basel,if they do get thrown out,then Bayern should recieve a bye into the quarter finals.
Lets fight for Europa cup and then fight for champs league next season.

Was Yugoslavia indeed…… By the way, well said at 10:11
Fuck me what is it with some on here ? How fucking dare a player speak to the press!!! If the players didnt speak then some would accuse them of being arrogant and out of touch. Young rarely speaks to the media so i like to hear what he has to say. On the flip side however Evra does have too much to say at times.
Ash – Hello mate . Ha. Laughing at your “he is a lovely chap” comment on the previous thread! Bless you, you have always come across a good lad. Yeah really like Jack Barmby, he has been excellent the last few months.
Ash – Agree about the Europa cup thing mate. We have had a bite of the cherry and failed miserably so shouldnt drop into the other one. Teams like Fulham have been playing since fucking JUNE and were 6 seconds away from qualification but drop out only for us and the bitters to jump into the last 32. Its a funny scenario. Fulham obvioulsy only have themselves to blame but just emphasising the fact they have been playing since JUNE!!
STR, take it easy and have mercy on the keyboard. I see you whipping up a new thread…”Manchester United back in Champions League”. What a story that would be. We get back to the champions league, take barca to the cleaners and lift the trophy in our transformation era. Wouldn’t that just be the day? I can hear all the haters saying just how well we manipulate football and policies which is crap talk anyway but personally, I don’t think we deserve to be back in the CL. We pissed our chances down the drain. I’m rooting for Bayern to take it. Well anyone apart from Barca would do…C’mon STR, we waiting!
xol – Mancini is a weak fucking clown mate. “Samir is a Champion”. Err what the fuck has that horrible goofy cunt won?

What the fuck pal? What’s the latest news my friend?

Bloody brilliant
xol – Top post at 10.10 pal. Just read it in it’s entirety. He is a fucking arrogant weak buffoon. “Plaaaayers”. Aarrgghh. That word he uses annoys me to fuck.
King Eric- Hello mate. Yeah I love Park Very much. I Sometime feel he Is almost a perfect example of How A united player should be. Lovely chap.
Speaking of Barmby , I have seen many games this season of our academy (Highlights only ) . From what I have seen I like barmby. He plays very well as an attacking midfielder. I hope you watch his progress and tell us how he is performing. Have to say you are a great judge of analyzing a player.
So I hope to hear some positive about him. Have high hopes of him.
Bless you too mate.
King Eric
Hope all goes well with the impending arrival mate, you should take the missus for a drive to make her think your helping, drive to Manchester, have a curry on the mile, hey presto waters break, rush to manchester gen and boom your little one will forever have Manchester on their passport.
ironbrand – The odds of us winning the Champions League will surely never have been lower than they are now (with us already having been eliminated!) If I was a betting man, I’d rush out and get a bet on us to win it, before UEFA officially let us back in…
Never been higher even!
I have high hopes for my mate. He’s a trapeze artist.
King Eric- Apart from the thing you mentioned I feel UEFA are itself degrading Uefa Cup by allowing the knocked out team from champions league to qualify for RO 32. Now some may say it increases the competition of Europa cup but I feel its a kind of insult. I know Champs league will always be bigger but Europa cup should be a separate competition.
But anyways I hope our team gives our 100% and we try to win it.
@ Fred…. You not allowed to bet against united as a Red anyway. Honestly though, we should just concentrate on the PL. Can’t totally say I won’t subscribe to the conspiracy theory that shitty’s tryna get us back into the CL so we stop breathing down their necks in the PL
I turned down city for the biggest club in the world too
Never looked back
I see people are thinking it will be an easy passage through against ajax. I think we’re in for a really tough game, they’re true technically gifted team so united have to turn up at both the away game and the home, must not underestimate.
ironbrand – hahaha, that particularly conspiracy theory is a stretch, even for me. Besides, we have a higher chance of being knocked out of Europe completely by Bayern.

Sorry about getting the country wrong! My memory’s not good when it doesn’t concern anything regarding United. I only remember Denmark because I think it was that competition that got Schmeichel noticed.
Young just needs time to get comfortable in/with the team. He looked an instant fit, and am probably trying to adjust his game a little to suit SAF’s requirements and intentions. What’s his injury history at Villa like? The last thing we need is another quality player with an injury history (or worse still, *touch wood* future history!).
YorYor – put it this way: Louis Saha had an impeccable injury record before Rob Swire and co got their hands on him.
Sammy Grinch, as I now call him!
Cedars, Giggs etc – Cheers lads. No sign yet. Today is the due day but only 5 per cent actually arrive. Giggs – Tried sex for first time in weeks, a curry last night, bumpy roads. He is a stubborn sod! Just the waiting game now but rest assured I will break the news right away on here.
Hull and Reading, you fucking beauties
Brilliant thinking Giggs12Gerrard0 !
Perhaps King Eric could discuss the idea with Queen Ruth.
Aah I do love the mancunian heir!
Sammy Grinch? hahahahaha
Brilliant
It was hard to take when united got knocked out but i was ok with the europa league. Reinstating us wouldn’t feel right because basel simply deserved to qualify ahead of united.
The swiss FA will punish fc sion and everything will be sorted, i actually think basel are capable of causing another shock but bayern will dispatch them.
King Eric – That’s the spirit! God loves a trier! Get the wee bugger out!
That AdamWinge fella at West Brom scored a cracker to further condemn Blackburn and I bloody love it
Off to watch the game. Don’t know why, can only see a heavy Chelsea win. Wigan are cack. Laters!
I would hate for basle to be evicted they fully deserve their place they took four points from the biggest club in the world.

Only thing that stuck with me from your last post was ‘Had sex for the first time’
Hahahahahaha Never took you for a virgin to be honest!
all the best King. Hey King…any chance of the name Kevin getting passed on?
Samuel, I also think Ajax will be up for this one. They have a good tradition and they are seasoned European club competitors. Their technical bench of their former players will be up for this one.

Amazing story about Scion and Swiss FA. Sure they will sort it out.
Evening Cedars
Likewise my good friend – alas I have so much college work to complete teaching assistant course finishes for February and I need to get a move on – school was tough yesterday and of course so much more writing to do
By the end of March though the company shall be up and running then we’ll have fun
The Busby Babes script is going well – a lot of ground work done but a lot more to do – after March I shall start writing to all families to gather more information – I don’t know how far it’s going to go but it’s been a life long ambition
And then sometime next year I shall write to the great Sir Bobby himself – whatever happens everyone will know where we are.
Long way to go at least we are on the way.
Eat your heart out BBC – I’m coming…

Wait Cedars
Rephrase:

Yeah, yeah, whatever Ashley. I like Ashley very much but I’d much rather our players did their talking on the pitch as opposed to in the media. After a while these ‘I love the club dearly’ pieces lose their effect and reek of marketing or self-promotion. Scholes played for us for years yet hardly ever opened his gob – but we all knew where his heart lay and saw what his boots did.
I love my club dearly
Surely not self promotion just an acknowledgement that I well love my club
It’s perhaps a bit harsh to compare any player with Scholes, but it’s right that they aspire to him.
Sir Alex and the experienced people like Scholes, Giggs, Phelan etc will keep him grounded.
well said Mr C.
Wigan 0:0 Chelsea
34 minutes
I’m impressed with Wigan so far.
Moses is playing for Wigan!
Frank Lambard better watch his ass!
Stan Collymore having a go at everyone for Wigan not being given a clear penalty
There is a God
Wigan 0:0 Chelsea
Half Time
It was never a penalty in my opinion. Ivanovic tucked his arm into his body, as he must to avoid perceived advantage from the ball striking it. All defenders know to tuck there arms against there body. However, I’m also happy to jump on any band-wagon crucifying Chelsea.
Jesus christ give the lad a break. If you read he was asked a question and he answered it that’s all and then you get our own fans claiming he’s self promoting himself, he doesn’t come across as that type of person at all. Yea the lads form has dipped since the first couple of months of the season but apart from Phil Jones who’s form hasn’t?!
Is Stan Moses’ Collie? More chance of cornering Lambard with a trained herder.
At least then Wigan can say they bleat Chelsea.
Shows you how the refs job is impossible at times when even after a dozen replays of the penalty incident fans and pundits alike can’t agree on whether it was or not. In my eyes that’s a blatant pen, it doesn’t matter if his arms are tucked in he moved them there and the ball wasn’t traveling at 100 mph towards him, Ivanovic would have been sweating as soon as it hit him.
Gary – It is surely a job for masochists!
One advantage of human error is that we all have some-one to blame other than our team. I would prefer it if officiating errors were eliminated, but it’s complex, and doesn’t suit Fifa’s agenda which is the total control of proceedings.

It could be worse though
Could be not a penalty and then be given a penalty from out of nowhere rubber stamped by the assistant linesman
Wonder if thats ever happened before?
haha, my stream cut out and when it came back on, the commentators were discussing how every ground seems to have award winning pies. Didn’t miss much then. I’d have to agree that Wigan’s pies are tasty. Dave Whelan owns Pooles Pies. Guess which pies are sold in the ground. It’s impossible to go there without putting money his way. JJB was his too. He bought Wigan Rugby Leagues’ old ground cheap off the local council, then sold it to Tesco for much more, got the land off the council to build the Stadium now known as the D.W. A shrewd business man but he has the team in his heart and loves Sir Bobby, so he’s ok in my book.
Mike and King Eric cheers, it’s easy to get on one about that Bertie Boss.
Still hurting about the Basle game actually. I think the guy that tangled with Vidic intentionally fell onto his leg whilst holding his foot. Wasn’t nice to watch repeatedly but the look on the guy’s face showed intention. I have mixed feelings about Europa league because on the one hand, the youngsters get games, but on the other hand it feels like being relegated out of the ‘Champion’s’ league whilst being the current Home League champions. Agree about the teams that have been playing since June. Needs changing.
By the way
And out of nowhere;
I did say yesterday me and Watson were on the CL case
What a team
May I just add that It is surely a job for masochists!
Also, the advantage of blame is the elimination of officials proceeding complexly.
Poor Wigan
Ah well at least it isn’t 8

Ooooohh 1-1 Villas Boas will be getting on the defensive again when the questions come his way post match. Can’t argue Wigan don’t deserve it.
Wigan 1:1 Chelsea
Full Time
A difference: United’s strategy of bringing on strikers needing game-time yields points, Chelsea’s strategy of taking off attacking players at 0:1 cost them dearly. Only our goal difference was affected by the extra goals against City. United’s way is to go for a win, and more.
Well done Wigan.
Nice, cunts drop pts again… I feel much better now after having to cheer for them last week.
Was there anything more pathetic than the look on Torres face when he realized he was going to be an unused sub again?
hahahahah 1-1 hahahahahah fuck you oil boyz….

Wouldn’t it be wonderfully, wonderfully ironic for UTD to get in by the back door and then win the CL – it would give the ABU brigade apoplexy.
U need to keep your level lad, it’s not that easy to fit in, your ability is good not great right now. Hope he steps up and becomes less predictable with better crosses and passing vision to boot. Still see him as a useful squad player right now.
Buggers the lot of you, we are all cheering on the rent boys last week! Ungrateful bunch the lot of you!

hahahahahaha oh and hahahahahaha
Young will be fine, fair enough he was at a smaller club, but look at his contributions over the last 5 seasons. His goals against Arsenal were not fluke. Young just needs to take his next chances, and im sure he will. His United career is only 15 games old. 3 goals? 6 assists? Might not be world class but it certainly ain’t bad for a winger in his first half season. He’ll improve imo.
@Willierednut – I would laugh my arse off if we got back into Europe this season, and sods law we’d probably win it!
I can understand some Reds not being too happy about this news, but with the greatest respect I personally couldn’t give two fucks. When I bang on about the FA and referees etc I bloody well mean it, so if we for ONCE can get a big bit of luck go our way im not gonna shun it in the name of misplaced “morality”. Fuck morality! Where was the morality when a ref cost us 5 in 5 titles? One poxy cock-eyed referee! Im sorry lads, I’ll be over the moon if we get this bit of luck, and I’ll happily tell other supporters talking bollocks to fuck off as well because any team would jump at that chance. We’ve got nothing to do with the pressure on the Swiss this has been going on for years, and like Willie said think back when English teams were banned from Europe. Rules are rules, and for once im actually surprised they’re not changing them to keep us from benefiting!
ha, thats made my evening, couldn’t make it up. Laters Reds.
Cheers lads. Kevin. Sorry mate. Thomas will be his name!
Gary. Spot on pal and said exactly the same earlier. If players didn’t talk they would be accused of beig out of touch.
Fuck off rentboys. Wigan deserved at least a point. Imagine if de gea was playing like Cech. He would be crucified. Cech is dogshit the last couple of years. Shambolic defending all round. What the fuck challemge was that by CLLC? Wished he had fucked his knee. Horrible cunt. I fucking detest those dances the like of Strurridge do especially when the game aint won. Great little player but a grade a twat. Aside from Ando on the rare occasion he nets I would be disgusted if our lads danced about like that. Silly cunts. It seems to be the fashion these days with even Bale at it. Cringeworthy. Fucking grow up.
What the fuck was apeman Keown on about? “Its ok beating the Champions but its games like Wigan you need to win“ excuse me? Champions. So City are Champions now as last time I looked it was United. Most bizarre substitutions. Only a goal up but takes Mata and Sturridge off? More pressure on Viyash Boash now. Jumped up prick. Well thanks for doing us a favour the other night then conspiring to fuck it up. Nice one. Oh and who the fuck does Fat Frank think he is? When he was being treated on the touchline ushering the cameras to go away. Fuck off.
Funny as fuck seeing the tranny STILL not getting a game. Greedy bastard.
Well done Wigan.
Hahahahhaaaaa. CSKALandon drop points ….. even with the ref trying to gift them the game.
@DentonDavie Cheers mate. Never happen that United win the CL through the back door.
1. Swiss will solve this. Scion deserve to be dropped to 3rd division. Classless
2. Even if United got in, the anti United refs in UEFA would ensure we don’t make the final.
CL was a bridge to far this year mates. Set yer sites on the UEFA Cup lads. United have never won it and it is Ajax will be a wonderful matchup, home and away!

@KE – Bang on about Sturridge, laughed at that myself. Thats twice he thought he’d secured the points and twice he’s been left to look a twat. Still, just as well they’ve got him at the Bridge as Torres is the biggest embarrassment of all. 50 million quid to sit him on the bench doing fuck all, and not so much as a Golden Boot to show for it. Gotta laugh at the Rent Boys and their star striker, Napoli has to be his final chance, they can’t keep him into next year with less than 5 goals to show surely? All we need now is a resurgence from Le Arse and Christmas has come early!

Wayne Rooney seems set to miss out on the opportunity of playing in next year’s Olympics after Stuart Pearce confirmed he will not select any player for Team GB at London 2012 if they have been part of the England squad for the European Championships. Pearce, the coach of the Great Britain men’s team, had initially been keen not to rule out that option but has now accepted that it is “a sensible football decision”.
Besides Rooney, who would have been one of the leading choices to be one of Pearce’s three over-23 picks, it means players such as Arsenal’s Jack Wilshere and Manchester United’s Phil Jones and Chris Smalling, who are almost certain to go to Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine with England, will not be part of the Olympic team.
“We have had discussions as we come now to notifying the long list of the players who could potentially be selected and it is important to make clear what we have agreed regarding England players who will be at Euro 2012,” said Pearce. “We have agreed that any player who boards the plane to the European Championship in Ukraine and Poland will not be considered for selection to Team GB.”

I am good my friend, you are spot on….. Its just as fans we approach games differently I guess….
You will be surprised to know that the only time I used to feel nervous was when we played Boro away! Strange eh? I do not feel nervous as it were ahead of any other game…. One I hate to lose the most is away to Liverpool
MG
Make that a double Holy Trinity then! hahahaha
In all seriousness, every true red here deserves an award for simply being in love with United….
You said it MG!
Cheers fletch MG Cedars etc. Ha. Kevin Fletch? No mate. Tom. Then when he is a teenager I can say I named him after the superstar Cleverley!
Cedars. Ruth is fast asleep in bed! Just settling down to watch Wall Street the sequel. Gordon Gekko. Greed is good. Sad cunt but loved the original.
Paul hello mate. Ha. I know like you say that’s twice now he has mugged himself off with those dances. God I hate to see that. Can you jusyt imagine Rooney or Jones or Hernandez doing that? Wouldn’t happen. It comes to summat when even Bale is at it. Truly cringeworthy.
Cannnot wait for tomorrow. Three great games but the latter two will be ruined unless United get the three points. A defeat for the vermin and dogleash will be under pressure. Wouldn’t surprise me if Villa get the win despite them being poor. Liverpool have a decebt record against them. Come on Arsenal. Catch those smalltime arrogant cunts on the break. Wonder if the fag Nasri will score. Oh wait a minute the triple crossing greedy cunt can’t even get a game.
Denton. Ha. I know pal. IMAGINE the outrage of United did get reinstated and won it! Would be priceless but aint gonna happen. We won’t get back in and nor should we imo.

Yes he was afforded acres of space but those toerags Minto and Armstrong coupled with Manuel Ardiles couldn’t resist downplaying it. What the fuck is wrong with these cunts? Telling you if Messi had scored that they would have been masturbating in the studio. They really don’t like Ronnie yet massage Lionels balls at every turn despite Ronnie blowing la liga away this term. Wonder if the fact he is ex United has owt to do with it? Wankers.

I just won another £450,000 from some mystery cell number. I’m clocking it up this month.
Ajax manager Frank de Boer said: “Two clubs with a massive history, with rooms full of European Cups — this is still a tie of Champions League calibre. None of the clubs left in the competition were keen to draw United. We did and we know it is the hardest team to beat. It’s going to be a brilliant clash for lots of young stars.’’
Gary Neville’s latest article:
“Does anyone think Arsene Wenger should be sacked now? It seems only a couple of months ago when a whole range of pundits, writers and fans were suggesting his time was up at Arsenal, but it’s all gone a bit quiet recently after their seven wins out of eight in the Premier League.”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2075611/Gary-Neville-Now-discover-force-Arsenal-again.html?ito=feeds-newsxml
Sir Alex Ferguson said: “Tottenham have been the most impressive team. They were unlucky last Sunday at Stoke but if they win their game in hand they are still in there. And for me, Spurs have been playing the best football in the Premier League for the last eight games. They look confident and dangerous and I have been very impressed with them. They have played some terrific football and they must be contenders now they are out of the Europa League – that will definitely help them. Tottenham will definitely be challenging and I also think that result Chelsea got the other night has given them a lift and also takes a wee bit of pressure off the situation, with all the rumours coming out of Stamford Bridge.”
“If you want to win the league, you have to make sure you don’t lose as many points as your rivals round about you. That’s what the second half of the season will be about. We have a lot of tough games ahead – we have to go to Arsenal, Chelsea and City. Chelsea did the league a turn by beating City. It was a tough game for both teams and a draw might have been fairer, but it’s always tough going to Chelsea. It was a wee bit of a bonus.”
“Arsenal have been gathering pace the last few weeks and it’s a big game for them at City.They will be able to do themselves a turn if they win. When you look at the start of the season you expect the four to be there – ourselves, Chelsea, City and Arsenal but now Spurs are right in there without a doubt.”
His desire for combat is still burning as strongly as ever. “I think experience is important, I have always said that. There was a spell for a few years where teams were taking young guys who were just finishing their playing careers and that was crazy. You need experienced managers like Tony Pulis, Martin Jol, Harry, of course, and Martin O’Neill. But most of us will be feeling like we’re 94 by the end of the season. I don’t think you can relish it, but you can look forward to it and enjoy it if you are winning. If you’re not then you are miserable for a couple of days after a loss.”
“We keep saying it would be fantastic if you have four teams involved until the last day of the season – but it just won’t happen. Come the end, there will be two teams involved. Just like always.”
http://www.people.co.uk/sport/football/news/2011/12/18/tottenham-are-a-bigger-threat-to-man-utd-than-man-city-says-fergie-102039-23642441/

United and Arsenal will be those two teams.
No quotes to this, may have some truth though. maybe.
‘Manchester United are close to securing a £29.3million deal to sign Benfica midfielder Nicolás Gaitán at the end of the season, with the Portuguese club understood to have struck an informal agreement with the Premier League champions over the sale of the Argentina international.’
‘As revealed by Telegraph Sport in October, United’s European scouting team has monitored the 23-year-old’s performances in recent months, with the player under detailed scrutiny during last month’s games against Naval and Sporting Lisbon, and the club moved to head off growing interest in Gaitán from Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain by opening negotiations with Benfica in late November.’
‘With Gaitán’s former club, Boca Juniors, entitled to 20 per cent of any transfer fee Benfica receive, the Portuguese club had been holding out for the player’s full £38m release clause, written into his renegotiated contract two months ago. United made it clear they would not meet that figure, and an outline agreement is now in place for a move next June’

It sounds reliable, for once.
QPR left back Armand Traore will face United for the second time this season and admits he is still haunted by his first meeting with United, having featured in Arsenal’s 8-2 defeat at Old Trafford.
“I’m mentally ready to face United again. For me the game was forgotten as soon as I joined QPR. I will treat Sunday’s match as I do any other”
29 million? Lot of doughy texture. Ogden is usually reliable. We’ll see, though.
Roy Keane has revealed that Manchester United threatened to take legal action against him in April 2008 and he chose not to attend the banquet marking Sir Alex Ferguson’s 25 years at Old Trafford because relations between the two men had disintegrated.
The former United captain said he received a letter from a legal firm after he criticised United’s handling of his departure from the club in an interview with The Irish Times. The letter demanded Keane make a full apology and undertake not to repeat the criticisms.
He ignored the letter and the threat was not taken further, but Keane said the bad taste left by the episode led him to stay away from Ferguson’s 25th anniversary banquet last month.
“I couldn’t have gone and sat there like everything was great,” he told The Sunday Times. ” He [Ferguson] would come and we all stand up and clap, I couldn’t have done that.”
Keane; who left United in November 2005, angered Ferguson with his criticism of United following their exit from the Champions League with their defeat at Basel. The manager had earlier questioned his former midfielder’s record in management.
“You could question every pundit’s managerial skill in relation to his and come up short,” Keane said. “But I would also say that without players like myself, maybe he wouldn’t have such a good managerial record because … it’s soon forgotten that we put bodies on the line for him.”

The full interview will be available soon.
A fuller transcript of the Sir Alex statement on the Da Silvas, referenced at 22:45
“The two of them are terrific talents, but they keep getting injuries, the kids are always getting them. I’m hoping that maturity eradicates all these things they have but it’s all different types of injuries you know. They’re so sturdy. They’re strong boys but, possibly, they’re a wee bit optimistic in terms of the challenges they make. They always put a foot in, in terms of attacking-wise, and are always getting injured going into attacking moves. The boys just don’t see danger. Bryan Robson was that way too, ‘Bang, on they go’. They’re only 21, you know, they’re young. You forget they were in the team as teenagers. I think both of them could play right-back [in the long-term]. There’s nothing between the two of them really. They are both excellent talents and really positive players. It’s what I love about them. They don’t have an inkling of fear in the way they play at all. They’ve always been really positive lads and it’s the Brazilian nature.”
@ Mr.Mico don’t say Arabs, my country and many other Arabic countries didn’t buy any clubs. And it’s only 2 Qatari’s and 1 Emirate.. and this isn’t really bad for the game. EPL was money before any of the Russians or Arabs. World is money
@King Eric: It sounds like u have something like transfer deadline jitters! U need to speak to Thomas’s agent, hopefully not the same one Pogba has gone for, But u need to spell out terms of the contract to his satisfaction. Otherwise he going to be holding on to yr wifes plumbing and only speaking to u thru the agent!
God bless yr Kid n wife, safe delivery.
@Captain Park: Hope yr Malaysian relatives have been treating u right! I enjoyed Spore!
@MG :I asked if u cud ask Mrs.G, the operation to remove the bowel and replace with an internal bag, where the person can go on as normal, does it work ,Fletch is this an option?
@wayne: good to know, hope yr businees is doing well.
Say has anyone seen @Balaji? Damm he must be stuck in a camel’s arse! Medic!!!

Some real mafia-style politicking going on at OT. Still, its nice to know the gaffer’s got a handle on things. Legend though Roy Keane may be, I think these statements from him might start bringing about dissension. Lord knows why he can’t let the past be where its meant to be. People like Totti have put their bodies on the line for one club all their lives and have virtually fuck all to show for it. He should be grateful to have had the opportunity to lead and lead a United squad to glory
Looks like we will have another midfielder in our ranks come the new year….

King, I think I shall call mine Fletch.
Smartalex,dont you sleep? Am from church. Thanks for the stories. The Argentine story looks solid. Am going to take a nap then go to watch the matches in a club in town. I hope Barca,City and Liver lose.
Happy match day
@Costas – wasn’t that what they said about Cleverley as well, speculation about his “rapid return” and his inclusion in the Basel match? Not holding out much hope in quick recoveries with our medical track record lately…
nice statement Ashley, but there’s another part to it. Playing at the world’s greatest club also means rising up to the occasion each and every time you set foot on the field. Don’t forget that.
Pity it has come down to this between the club and Keane. He has a right to his opinion and tactics like that aren’t complimentary for our club…
As for the Da Silvas, they are hardly kids anymore. Ronaldo at their age never got injured…
@JC
Don’t remember that about Tom to be honest. Could be right. His return has only been pushed back as far as I can tell. Like you I don’t have much faith in them, but hopefully Tom and Ando will be back by mid January. Carrick and Jones can’t keep playing forever…
@ham
Is the term Arab offensive mate? The reason I ask is there is a new song about city doing the rounds and it has a line
” bought with Arab cash their fans have git no class, city are the biggest joke to me ”
Just want to make sure I’m not offending anyone when singing it ( apart from city that is )
Giggs12Gerrard0
Morning pal, it is NOT offensive to use the term Arab, not at all. All Arabic speaking countries are referred to as an Arab nation. Its like saying using the term European is offensive….
People need not be touchy for the wrong reasons
Morning all
Come ON UNITED
In terms of possible midfield signings, did anyone see James McCarthy playing for Wigan yesterday. The lad was absolutely outstanding. He never got caught in possession, kept it simple when required but played some outstanding forward passess at the right times. There were moments there when he reminded me of a certain mister Scholes. This kid was getting a lot of praise last season but I haven’t heard so much from him this season. I don’t know what he’s been playing like overall this season but if yesterday is anything to go by it won’t be too long before the big clubs come knocking on Wigan’s door. At 21 he’d definitely be worth a gamble as we’d probably get him for a reasonable enough price. I seem to recall Liverpool being linked with him last season.
Happy Match Day Reds!
Come on United!
too hot for my nap.
About Keane,he should know his place. He was under the boss. He was praised when he did play well. He has a problem,should we say it was Keane’s team? It is Man Utd. Someone tell him I said this&I know he doesnt like it,’Whom does he think he is?’
QPR are not at all a bad team and at Loftus Road the atmosphere is usually excellent and no doubt that the place will be rocking for the visit of the champions.
As long as we keep it tight at the back we should be fine and with Nani and Rooney among the goals again we should hopefully get the three points…
Come on you mighty REDS
My take:
The word ‘Arab’ is not in itself offensive, neither is the word English, or European.
However, to speak in a derogatory fashion about 2 specific people, but refer to them by the group name ‘The Russians and Arabs of this world’ is xenophobic, racist, and hurtful.
Say you don’t like Townsend or Bellamy, to refer to them negatively as ‘The English and Welsh of this world is not on. What about Giggs, he’s Welsh? What about Cleverley, he’s English?
Whether it was accidental or not, it was offensive.
Similarly, referring derogatorily to anyone, while simultaneously classifying them, is definitely racist. To fellow English fans, referring to the ‘Arab’ who bought City is simply a way of identifying him, and means no slight on Arabs. However, if you know that a particular Englishman is extremely disliked by a foreign club, and they sing taunts that refer to ‘Englishmen’, rather that their specific target, it would likely cause offense.
Anyway, that’s my pennies worth.
Ironbrand – I’m going to try and stay out of any spat between my cherished idols. Whatever the details, we ALL must put United first, and that applies to fans, staff, management, players and legends. No exceptions.
kevin – I sleep! Three to seven hours a day, unless I’m on the razzle. Then it’s 2 or 3 one-hour power-naps a day, full steam ahead for the remainder.
smartalex
Hello my good friend…. You raise an excellent point. At the end of the day its all about intent, for me its not about the words used and hence I said that the term Arab is by no means offensive, however if people use it with an intention to be offensive than if becomes one.
CedarsDevil
Good day friend! Yeah, the intent shines through. We don’t want some forceful twits joining this conversation! It’s one that can only be held by reasonable men. Most of my corpuscles have family in Scotland, and I am fiercely proud of that. If someone says “There’s fucking snow in Scotland” I’m cool, if they say “There’s snow in fucking Scotland”, I start this conversation! Bore them into submission!
smartalex
For me racism stems from ignorance, pure ignorance. I will sight an example from personal experience…. Those educated enough will know that my country Lebanon is considered to be part of the Arab world, they will also know that we have no oil, no desert and no camels for that matter… They will also know that Lebanon is probably and with out bias one of the most beautiful countries on earth. Now I am white, I could easily pass as say an Italian, a Greek or a Spaniard. When I was living in England during the 70′s and 80′s and during my schooling years the minute some people found out I was Lebanese I would start to get comments like ‘Camel riding bastard’ or ‘Oil rich monkey in a white dress’ etc etc
All stems from ignorance and I will leave it at that… We have a match to win
new thread
CedarsDevil
I was about to continue this conversation, but now I read your last sentence I leave it too.
Come on United!
(ps come on internet bandwidth gremlins, give us a break!)
