Travelled with the squad, I do agree with you but the fact that he travelled gives it away.

Rio looked £#%&!ed Saturday so no issues there.

Four wins and a draw from Newcastle (A), Everton (H), Arsenal (A), Chelsea (H), Blackburn (A) and Blackpool (H) will be enough to earn Sir Alex and United an incredible 12th Premier League crown and take them above arch-rivals Liverpool as the most decorated team in English league history.

...

3-0 united, barton sent off, rooney double, carrick screamer, 5 geordies with pneumonia,8 £#%&! offs on camera,no suspensions,evra warned about his future conduct and a 6inch hole in the dugout.

Win tonight and I think its ours.

I fancy us to beat Everton, Blackburn, and Blackpool. Then we'll only need a point from the Arsenal or Chelsea games. Easy peasy.

4-4-2 eh? fancy that

what the £#%&! does capello know etc etc

Except we *never* do things the easy way, of course

Would be nice for there to be an exception, for once

If he indeed picked up a knock against the Divs, saving him for Saturday makes even more sense.

(especially if, as suggested, SAF decides to "rest" some other senior players then )

We'll drop points tonight.

Correct.

I'll be amazed if we don't win the League from here on in, but don't expect it to run smoothly.
Huge game tonight..

Happy with that side, although I'm disappointed Rio's out.

talking of the berbatov injury on that chance he skied over the bar, how come those are never given as penalties? it was as blatant a late tackle as anything else that happened in the game surely...

Happens all the time doesn't it?? Not sure why.
It only happens if the striker gets the shot away, but it was a clear Pen.

never gets a mention ever. usually. to think the liars did 3 united players early in that game and yet it's just ignored in all the coverage*


*assuming the coverage is still like it used to be in about 1998

What sort of bad decision are we going to get tonight?

Lee Probert in charge.

Rooney sent of for foul and abusive language - 6 match ban, to really make an example.

Ideally win tonight and Saturday with Arse not winning tomorrow night. That would allow a bit of room to rest players against Arse before Champs League 2nd leg. Daft playing those 2 games Sun/Wed. Don't understand why Arse game not on Saturday.

surprised SAF didnt start with Berbs, would have thought he'd want to give him a chance to redeem himself.

cant say im not happy though

i'd be happy with a scrappy against the run of play win tbh
