Nick OGS20 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 yeah, but in the past semi/final tickets have been allocated firstly to those who have been to all home cup games (as away tickets are now). with so many new ST holders this season all being forced to join the ACS, there'll now be shedloads more who qualify under that criteria.

Confused Clarity Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Because if they offered any higher odds, considering we're a team people like to back, then a lot more people would take those odds.

BBB Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Shreeves got torn apart by Fergie <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> ALEX FERGUSON launched a foul-mouthed attack on a TV reporter in a bust-up over Cristiano Ronaldo. Manchester United’s boss called Sky’s Geoff Shreeves a ‘f*****g bastard’ and told him to ‘f**k off’. Ferguson was furious with Shreeves for questioning his Portuguese wing wizard about allegedly cheating for his controversial penalty winner against Middlesbrough in Monday’s FA Cup clash. The fiery Scot’s off-camera rant was so loud a BBC interview with Boro chief Gareth Southgate had to be abandoned. Shreeves grilled Ronaldo about his latest ‘cheat’ storm in the tunnel after the quarter-final replay. Beeb reporter Ivan Gaskell then tried to record Southgate’s verdict on the defeat for Match of the Day, only to have his work wind up on the cutting-room floor thanks to Ferguson. Here is the full transcript of the blast at Shreeves from Fergie’s renowned ‘Hairdryer’. SHREEVES: “I asked him . . . †FERGUSON: “F*****g (inaudible) bastard.†S: “Don’t talk to me like that.†F: “F**k off to you.†S: “Don’t talk to me like that. Don’t even think about it.†F: “Don’t you think about it, you ****. F**k off. Right?†S: “Listen, are you going to do the interview in a professional manner or not? Do you want to do it or not?†F: “You f*****g be professional. You be professional. You’re the one.†S: “I’m entitled to ask . . . . Cristiano gave the right answer.†F: “F*****g hell with your answers.†S: “Don’t talk to me like that. Go away. If you want to behave civilly, fine. Don’t talk to me like that.†F: “F**k off.†(door slams). Gaskell to Southgate: “I’m going to have to ask that question again, if that’s all right.†Ferguson later announced he was ‘disgusted’ at Shreeves’ ‘disgraceful’ TV interview with Ronaldo. He said of Monday’s spot-kick and Boro’s anger: “It was a clear penalty. It’s a shame. They are putting a stigma against the boy that he doesn’t deserve.†</div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confused Clarity Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 So listening to talksport this morning.

No Longer Bling Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 yeah, entertaining the fans deserves injury imo. disgusting. interesting how its not being made a deal out of despite it being the sort of tackle that was obviously intended to injury the player hence the straight red. not sure if thats because its the brave young english player doing what all us gritty, brave englishmen would like to do to those p*ss taking foreigners or if its because its ronaldo, the little winker who obv deserves it. england the smallest of small time countries.

Confused Clarity Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Because, when i'm driving to or home from work i like to have something on in the background. Talksport is a little less annoying than Moyles or Mills on Radio 1. so whenever they're mouthing off rather than play music, I try and find a music station that is playing some music i like. if i don't find it. I switch to either Five Live or Talksport. Should really get an MP3 player and car adapter i suppose but that's an expense i dont really want to make.
