btw - we had really, really better start playing well. because (great though it is) performances like Fulham, Reading and now Liverpool, well we'll get found out sooner or later. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Spot on yeah, add Lille away to that list and it's four jammy wins in a row. Needs sorting. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Another way of looking at it could be that this is our poor run of games. We've not had many bad runs this season. So if this is it and we've still been winning them, then thats a good thing.

</div></BLOCKQUOTE>

True yeah, I just want to see us win convincingly some time soon. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

"First offence" red card is 3 games. "Second offence" red card is 4 games (for example Mikel is out for 4 because it is his second straight red of the season).

Now normally it should be 3 games but i have no idea if the Porto friendly game red counts or not (that was a straight red btw).

[Mika]

That's a nice one too, they're still adding more.

At least 1 of those games is the FA Cup. So it's 2 league games, most probably at home to Bolton and Blackburn.

[ACou2000]

could be worse.. but with the way we're playing atm, team minus Scholes is very ://

[gonch19]

I LOVE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU. I LOVE YOU ALL.

so happy :********)

i knew, i just KNEW if we won today it would be some random hero like o'shea/silvestre etc.

i will never insult o'shea again

[Mika]

It is yeah, especially with Fletcher injured too.

[SLO_Fila]

I believe this is the mandatory "bad run" that we didn't suffer yet this season. Hopefully we're gonna shrug it off when Bolton comes at OT.

[Mika]

As Gary Neville said to Diego Forlan, JOS could stop playing football now and he'd still go down as a Manchester United legend.

[ACou2000]

City losing to Wigan :*)

[ACou2000]

TODAY is why John O'Shea >>>>>>>> Kieran Richardson

just know KR would have skied that over the bar

[gonch19]

im already on the beer. whatever happens, THAT is the stuff dreams are made of. it couldnt have turned out better. props to edwin too, what a hero.

[Walrus]

Well done lads, the title is yours now. Just oes to show nevr ****ing trust the bin dippers to do a job for you.

My first thought at full time was to this post from two weeks ago, I never for one second thought that we would win all four, oh how I love being wrong at times like this.

We'll blatantly go and drop points at home now, but still, so far so good.

The jinxing continues

[Confused Clarity]

i've kind of been ridiculously optimisitc recently mainly to counter all the pessimism.

But right now. i really genuinely believe we're going to come out on top in the league. I can't see a situation at all that results in us dropping points and Chelsea not dropping any.

I'm also very confident we can progress further in both cup competitions.

[14AlanSmithifb]

wtf? no idea why it was all in bold then

[14AlanSmithifb]

Just to remind everyone 7 MORE WINS

Yeah, now the initial giddiness has worn off, caution is setting in again

Long (ish) way to go yet.

[Mika]

Yeah, it's not wrapped up or anywhere near, but for today I don't care, so happy anyway.

[goon]

FFS THE TITLE IS YOURS JUST ACCEPT IT.

[Mika]

I'll accept it when it's mathematically certain

[pjburrage]

Alan Green such a ****. United score, and he suddenly out of nowhere goes: "Gary Neville runs the length of the pitch to celebrate with the United fans" in a voice that kind of indicating he wanted him punished.

[ACou2000]

how the hell is the title ours

Chelsea away EASILY could be a defeat.

Then its a 3 pt difference to make up. So easily done. Especially the way we're performing atm and games without Scholes to come.

[Mika]

Ant so right, but again, I don't care today.

[pjburrage]

Can't see us dropping more than 6 points on Chelsea, and the Goal Difference swinging into Chelsea's favour.

Lets no forget they still have to play us at the Emirates.

[matt_e]

pffft its all over, treble in the bag, Liverpool finish 5th and Citeh/Leeda both relegated.

Hey, I can dream

[Mika]

Jonny is not going to like this but:

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> "I've seen the replay and Paul has lifted his hand which is something you can't do," Sir Alex told MUTV.

Although Scholes made no contact with Alonso, the Boss concedes that Atkinson was left with little alternative.

"He's not touched him but I think the referee probably got it right in terms of intent," he said. "You can't argue with the decision." </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

He is not allowed to celebrate with his own fans.

He should have celebrated in front of the kop ffs.

[pjburrage]

I did say before the free kick that it would be so great if Nev or Rio popped up to score in front of the Kop and just stood their chests out celebrating in front of the Kopites who would have been foaming at the mouth.
