I don't want the skates because the lack of games between us helps to make the one we have more special.

 

I agree. I'm looking forward to the fifty year gap following our next game against them.

Any Prem grounds I haven't been to away for be my first priority:

 

So Spurs, Swansea, Villa, Bolton, Liverpool.

 

Also wouldn't mind going to other Prem grounds I've already been to in:

 

City/United, Fulham, Wolves, stoke.

 

Although I love the atmosphere of Home FA Cup games against a decent Prem opposition, I've always wanted to go to the Prem grounds I've mentioned above, and the FA cup is the only chance to do so at the moment

 

The Worst people to play for me would be:

 

Any Championship teams (as they're in our league so we'd already be playing/would of played them at some point), and teams like Crawley Town etc.

Do you really think they'll beat Citeh tomorrow, if so you didn't see them against Newcastle.

You didn't reckon with Rooney getting in the ref's ear to get Kompany sent off did you? Cheating bastards. Tackle didn't even warrant a yellow, even Nani didn't appeal, just the thug, and a useless ref.

 

Hopefully we'll get a Prem team at home (someone outside Top 6 and not Stoke), Newcastle would be interesting, could easily see us beating them while they are without Ba. I'm sure NC would like to give Pards a nice little welcome as well.

Agreed about the tackle, it was totally harmless, in fact if he was "just applying the rules" that would mean that you can't do anything that involves 2 feet forward.In fact you'd have to ask yourself if overhead kicks aren't just as dangerous and should be the subject of a straight red as well.

People seem to think that winning the ball is everything these days. Even Andy Townsend said "he won the ball, how can it be a foul?". Winning the ball means NOTHING if the challenge was careless, reckless, or reckless with excessive force (Dangerous).

 

Based on the laws of the game the challenge was a foul and worthy of a yellow or red card, depending if the referee saw it as a reckless, or added with excessive force.

 

It may not be how people would like football to be, or the way it used to be played, but rules are rules.

 

It is quite frankly shocking the ignorance shown by the majority of fans when it comes to the laws of the game.

Away to Milton Keynes would suit me on a personal basis, I've to be in Cambridge earlier on that week and what with the lad at Cranfield and all...MK away would be top titty.Still they'd have to beat QPR first,wouldn't mind Loftus Rd either,always a lucky ground for me.

The tackle was one footed, and his other foot followed through afterward. It was just a good challenge.

 

Football is ****ed, truly ****ed.

 

No it was'nt, what game did you watch?

Patronising rubbish.

 

Not withstanding that he did win the ball cleanly, it was neither reckless nor dangerous nor employed excessive force.

 

The ref wasn't even going to give a foul until Rooney started screaming and waving at him. Look at the reaction of Nani (the "fouled" player) and Giggs - nothing.

I bet, if it was Saints player on the recieving end of the challenge, you would ALL be saying it was a red. He jumped in to the tackle with both feet off the ground, both sets of studs showing.When a 14 stone player leaves the ground with both feet, it results in excessive force. If he caught the player, still winning the ball, you would change you mind. I'd put my savings on it.
