I already have further back.

It's history now but the events will have been noted by all those who love cricket if not by those who only love it when their side is winning.

How much are you betting on Man U winning at Maine Road tomorrow?

I'll have fourpence on City and if they win you can give the proceeds to your favourite charity. If they lose I'll give your proceeds to my favourite charity.

Can't be fairer than that I shouldn't think.

City's best player, J Barton, nearly blinded a teammate at training and is now out of the team (and maybe into the courts) so City will win 10-0

Maybe we could bet on how many sendings-off there will be.

I like it best when the match is abandoned due to the ref sending enough off so there's no longer a quorum. Enquiries maybe.

It's a daft rule I think. It encourages teams who are down to 9 men and 4 nil behind to kick the ref's teeth in and shove the linesman's flag up his arse. I think 7 is match abandoned and a replay is then necessary.

Again?

When I watched it six hours ago, City should have played with 10 players from the second minute onwards ...

I would think it odds on, as City will be at the City of Manchester Stadium, down the road.

absolutely right Walter. Michael Ball was a disgrace. When Ronaldo took his shirt of at the end, the boot print was clearly visible on his stomach. However there is a God of Football, who's all seeing eye observed, and gave Ronaldo the penalty for a later Ball foul Smile

just occasionally, the BBC gets it right

United were displaying all the real quality, despite City's rather obvious attempts to entice them into a physical battle as opposed to a football match.

It looked an ace pitch to play on.

Oh Mama- why did you have me so prematurely. Football can hardly get better than that and it's wonderful knowing that it will do.

If only Ronaldo did not keep falling over, and getting his body where people are putting their feet.....

MANCHESTER UNITED ARE PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS


Commiserations to Chelsea fans, an absolutely brilliant second half against Arsenal, with ten men! They went down fighting.

BUT THE TRUE AND ONLY CHAMPIONS ARE IN MANCHESTER

After today's great game Jose Mourinho congratulated Man U, their manager, their staff, their fans and, in an obvious reference to some referees, 'those who helped them'.

They had at least ten points from some dubious officiations.

Those two games are no longer improtant Steve, it would be nice to thrash them both though Laughing Laughing However, we need to save the lads for the FA Cup Final. It would be a great achievement to get the double.
