What a player.

no doubt he learnt everything he knows from a young Jezzadonna. Was he a bad tackler back then, as well

hi Bazzer,

he was a right little hard nut - in a team of hard nuts!!

My team - Norf Manc - was pretty good and pretty much the best team in North Manchester. Had some right ding dongs with Longsight from South Manchester (played v Beckford and some right good players) but Cardinal Langley had a really good team too, yet he was playing as an 11yr old in a team of 15yr olds!

Top player

Would have loved to see the young Scholes work his magic...

tony cascarino was writing in the times the other day, saying that he shouldn't retire but would be better off at a club like spurs

personally i think we'd benefit from having giggs, scholes, becks, keane and neville all in some sort of coaching capacity. whether they would want to is up to them. its not just the talent that has brought us success but the ethos too. too many changes in a short space of time would be just as crippling as it was inspiring from '92 to now.

And, heaven forbid, what's so £#%&!ing calamatous about how Neville bowed out. Realised the time had come and announced it.

Neville should of retired the seaon before last ! nevermind this season, he was £#%&!ed and went too far. No player wants that, look at VDS.

Scholes should go now and will.

Confirmed on BBC news channel now.

Thanks for the memories Ginger Prince.

Yeap, confirmed


A true legend in every sense of the word. No wonder half the barca team was trying to get his shirt Saturday.


Cheers for everything Scholesy
