"Had to chuckle"

Watching the Man U vs. Blackburn match and had to laugh when the fourth official put up the minutes added on and the Blackburn fans were unhappy and this guy was tapping his watch looking at the fourth official then his kid copied him but he looked stupid and what made him look more stupid was that he had to watch on so he was tapping his wrist. T'was funny.

Well I s'pose you had to be there to see it. :|

Discuss. :D

Personally i actually like it in a sick way because it means even though we're playing crap right now everyone still sees us as a threat and a major contender so have to find something to moan and b!tch about. It's the day when everyone stops talking about us and starts moaning about Le Scummers is the day that worries me (luckily that won't ever happen though :-D)

interesting analogy though :-D

oh i know, i don't hold it against you (well to much), but you can't just have your penalties and fergie time for free. the price of these bonuses is to have us bittch about them. Its like spider man (har har mystique), with your great power comes great responsibility, your responsibility is to be hated and moaned atbut in exchange you get cool powers.

Like i said yes i admit United get given the majority of decisions, every big team does it's a thing in football everyone just accepts, just like Arsenal will always suck in the Champions League and Alan Shearer will always be the most boring man on the planet, it will always happen. Doesn't make it right or excuse it, just telling it how it is.

but you have to confess the stats don't lie. if we ignore fergie time. The penalty situation is undeniably wrong.

Oh boo bloody hoo we get given the majority of the 50-50 decisions, every big team does. You think if it had been a West Brom player tumbling over that Southampton challenge today the penalty would have been given? The hell it would.

Everyone accepts the big teams get the majority of the decisions so stop acting like your team is the hard up poor club who gets everything given against them.


Porto last year
Henry's blatant offside goal a season or so back against United.


Yup we ALWAYS gets the decisions don't we?

exactly, if it had been arsenal or chelsea nobody would be bothered, but cos it ALWAYS happens to united (like the ridiculous penalty stats), people moan.

please if this game involved anyone else but United no one would care

just as there has never been a united match that finished on time when they weren't winning! :-)
