In the end it came down to a couple of little moments. One where we let the Bellamy incident distract us and you scored, the other where we were waiting for the whistle to blow, and you scored. You've been through countless semi-finals and pressure points, and that experience told.
Good blog my McNulty in the BBC site:

"United, however, still hold sway in this city. Empires carefully assembled over more than 20 years are not dismantled in months with a few waves of the game's mightiest chequebook. "

Anyway Cook needs to pull his head in a bit, that 'when we beat United' speech was basically Fergie's team talk.

Rooney was the difference. Bellamy, odious wee shite that he is, is playing some of the best football of his career right now. For all the big money signings he's probably the best player and overall was more impressive than Tevez for me.
