On the Eve of the new Season...

Okay...so I just saw the United v Stoke game last night.

A pk and red card to Woodgate in the first 5 minutes and a couple of yellows thrown in by minute 11. What were Stoke thinking? If you can't beat them break their legs?

The handball shout in the second half was indeed a penalty if following the laws of the game (deliberate or arm not in a natural position) his arm was not in a natural position. I can see a ref not giving that call though.

All that being said, United had no shape and completely out of sync, which I think Stoke should get credit for. As for Crouch, he commits a foul every single time he goes in for a challenge but I think the officials cut him some slack because he's so lanky and awkward.

I also saw that bogus pk to Villa, I bet that ref is working league two next week. None of the fans or players called for a pk.

Oh dear.......Crisis time at OT. Two draws in a row, and two draws in the champs lge.

At least we aren't man shitty were players refuse to come off the bench!!!

So what do you think about your man Tevez now then?

[vansmack]

Great, but he'll never play in a Champions League game, let alone a Final so long as he's at City.  

So that makes me right again.  A perfect score of 100% in my predictions of Carlos Tevez at Man City.

Chelski aren't far behind because Lampard is now belly-aching because his arse is getting numb from sitting on the bench.

Oh...dont' you love the drama as long as it's not within your own team?

I too will defer to Mankie, but that did remind me of something I wanted to say.

How great is Gary Neville a a commentator?

Neville does a great job eh? Plus the manc accent is the icing on the cake for me.

As for the court ruling....I think it just means people will not now be breaking laws that were never enforced in the first place. The monopoly Sky once had is now over. I hated those fuckers when I lived in Cork....Sky Sports 1 was the first premium and Sky Sports 2 the second level.....only they put half of  Man U's games on 1 and half on 2. I just went down to the pub to watch the games...that were being received by one of those foreign recievers!!!!

So a coworker watched the Mexico game last night....he tried to wind me up by saying. "Chicarito is shit. I wouldn't pay 10 million for him"....."United paid 9 million" I replied. "RM have just offered 30mil for him"


Shut the bastard right up!!!
