The Sexton days are here again. :(
We're going out here. Wait and see. No doubt about it.
The most ridiculous rule in football. How is it fair that they get 120 mins to get an away goal but we only get 90?
Mind you In an ideal world you wouldn't be having to worry about that after two legs against the team bottom of the league...:mad:
So it's the bitter blue noses in the final if we can hang on here. They've only scored around 110 goals this season. Probably take moyes 3 seasons to do that. :(
So we're out.. 29th minute of ET.. De Gea makes an error.. 1st all season so no blame...Quote:

Manchester United has dropped out of the top three in Deloitte's football rich list for the first time.
United have scored 4 penalties in their last 3 penalty shoot outs:DQuote:

Now they have to spend £££ to watch a f**king exhibition match.
f**k em!
I'm glad we got knocked out. Imagine us against Citeh in the final? Moyes sitting there making defensive subs at 4-0 down
f**k that

I still want you to make the top 6 Iain as i think United in the Europa League will be somewhat reminiscent of our one season sojourn in the third tier of English Football.Quote:

I desperately hope you can put the afterburners on and finish sixth as it'll make fantastic viewing watching you struggle on Channel 4 on Thursday nights.
If City win the League Cup then United only need to be in the top seven to qualify for the Europa League, even Moyesy should be able to manage thatQuote:

Whilst watching the National Television Awards last night, I discovered the existence of Fernanda Lima
Ding dong!
If anyone missed it last night Sky Sports 2 is just about to show De Gea's howler and United's Carry on Penalties performance again. Also repeated at 7.00 and 10.00 if you want to keep watching it over and over:D
Even more hilarious second time round :D:D:D:D
Last nights attendance 71,000 including 9,000 from Sunderland. What's going on there, I thought the capacity was 75,000
Well well well.Quote:

In reality it will be lower. United, like most teams, don't do actual attendance counts.. they do tickets sold... so season tickets, corporate buyers.. for a league game its rarely full, yet always gets a full attendance, because they still do sell almost every seat.
barmy army!
9,000 Sunderland fans in that 71,000 Iain, compared to the 3 or 4,000 for a Premier League match so that's more like 9 or 10,000 down.Quote:

But United offered tickets to all secondary school kids for 5 quid for that game once they realised tickets were available.. nice touch.
At times we have to be more of a family club like City.. OK they took millions from a human rights abusing, corrupt politician... but he was just a loveable rogue...
Or or to spin it another way, there were 71,000 fans watching a league cup semi final. That could not have happened at any other club in the country.Quote:
