The Manchester United thread 2006/2007 - featuring BBB leaving early

[Asmodeus]

Why do you guys dislike Queiroz so much?

[Mika]

It's easy for me to defend Ronaldo though, I'm not an England supporter so don't have the England spectacles to look through.

lad at works reckons there are reports of the bitters bidding £2m for gravesen. not sure how much truth there is in that but id be annoyed if thats all it took to get him and we just let it. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Depends. If we genuinely have no midfield signings in the offing then we should be in there, but we really should be after better and younger options.

[Guest]

"Siege Mentality" seems to have become the buzzword of the world cup for England fans. No idea why mind.

Heinze/Vidic. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yeah I suppose those two come under the unknown banner for most at the time as we don't get a lot of Serbian or Russian football in the UK, while French only has highlights and delayed games in the real early hours of a sunday morning.

I had seen Gaby play and had seen bits of Vidic playing for Serbia, though he didn't have a good game.

[No Longer Bling]

ronaldo is the king of 'its all about me', why anyone would be surprised hes not got the common sense to do this the right way is beyond me

if we get over £20m for him i will literally orgasm.

[snipersdream]

Petit's already said he doesn't want to leave Benfica.

SEE? EVEN COMPLETE NOBODIES CAN'T BEAR TO PLAY FOR US NOW.

[saha9]

I meant sign not sing btw

[Father Senegal]

How old is he btw?

[rsl]

Smith up front should work, he will run his socks off. Him, Rooney, Saha, Ole, Rossi is qg

Points over Rio are valid tbh. The Paul Ince parallels are uncanny, although I suppose he is more important to us than Incey was once we bought Keano.

[James07?]

Doubt it. Rooney will be playing behind Torres and Tevez. Saha on the bench (on in hospital).

[mark g]

They could play old episodes of friends or something if the game gets too boring.

this is just ace first game of the season and can't sell it out

Give him a break, it's the delusion setting in that in just 103 minutes he will be an amateur again.

It's going to destroy him

[Coldberg]

Yeah I will pay whoever gets the beer. Saves me carrying it all the way from my house.

I finish work at 2 I think so I will be getting to OT around 3pm.

So my day is almost as long as Jules. But I get an extra hour in bed \o/

[theis]

So Heinze fit for boxing day then \o/

I never used to be quite this bad when it came to international week, but now I really cannot be arsed with England (I'll watch em when theyre playing.. though what's the point) and just DESPERATE for it to get back to domestic weekend

[alilaw]

Like I said earlier, I'll be voting for Wakey.

(BOTU means 'burning of the user', right?)

Do you have to be in the thing to vote?

[Scatter]

yeah, when homo hair scored my first reaction was that i hope giggs is fit for the game against the scouse...

I'll read in morning, too late for that now

Middlesbrough have given us a 1500 allocation.

joke club, hope they rot. They won't even sell out the game

Yes I understand that but most if the idiots at work see it as THE GAME of the season.

2 of the people who said this to me today have tickets

Only the 2nd game of the season either of them have been too.

[Coldberg]

Couldn't be arsed filling al lthe crap in to get one.

Got someone on the case in Ireland though so hopefully he can help me out.

[Taz & The Devil]

Scholesy has come out and said that based on current form Ronnie is the best player in the world at this moment in time.

As ever Paul went on to say hes played better in the past and hopes to once again reach those standards in the second half of the season.

[Nick OGS20]

i think Liverpool will finish within three points of us. we'll probably jammy a win in one of the tricky away games to just keep our noses in front of them.

Chelsea to win it by six or so anyway

[ACou2000]

3-0 us tomorrow

[mark g]

Magath has left Bayern. DOn't know if he was sacked or what. I'm assuming that'll have no bearing on a potential last minute Hargreaves deal, however.

[Tanman007]

I would've settled for 2-0, but that performance was brilliant.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Lille appeal rejected

Friday, 2 March 2007

UEFA's Appeals Body has ratified the validity of Manchester United FC's 1-0 victory at LOSC Lille Métropole in the UEFA Champions League last week, by backing the decision to reject a protest by the French club concerning Ryan Giggs's winning goal.

Technical error claim

Lille had appealed on Monday against the ruling of the UEFA Control and Disciplinary Body to veto Lille's claim of a technical error by the referee of the first knockout round first-leg tie on 20 February, in allowing Ryan Giggs's match-winning free-kick to be taken without having blown his whistle.

Result valid

The Appeals Body supported the original decision that there was no proof of a technical error, and validated the result in Lens, a 1-0 victory to the English club. Lille will have the possibility of making a further appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport within three days of receiving notification of the UEFA Appeals Body's ruling.

[James07?]

what with Liverpool's 70 squillion dollars, Arsenal's lot reaching puberty and a Hiddink inspired Chelsea coming on strong, this might be the last chance to win the league for a while.

any old half arsed bunch of useless talent free muppets can fluke their way to the CL final.

[Mika]

VERY happy with that

Not because I think Roma are easy or anything, they're not, but I really wanted to avoid the other English teams, so dodging them in both the QF's and potential semis is a great result.

Top stuff.
