Rooney being sh*t already. Going to be painful watching him shoehorned into England's midfield this summer.

Cue a Rooney wonder goal in next 5 mins... ;)

Why on Earth didn't Clattenburg play advantage there?

 

I've highlighted the key word.

Nope. Just giving the ball away stupidly, which lead to that Palace f/k.

On reflection, I guess in the split second he had to make a decision both players were on the floor so he probably didn't see there was an advantage to be played. Benefit of the doubt and all that

That's the thing, he didn't have to make a 'split second' decision. In fact refs never do TBH, I don't get why he couldn't have waited a couple of seconds to see how it panned out. If you're going to stop play anyway, why not wait?

Fair point sir.

Seriously how many players from Utd would get in our side 2 maybe

 

Martial, Mata, De Gea, Rashford, Valencia (at right back), maybe Carrick too

Rooney looks a real liability so far. He's slowed down the United attack and given the ball away to Palace in dangerous areas. United's best hope of winning would be to sub him as soon as possible. Let's hope he doesn't play for England in the summer.

 

But I still hope he scores because we really need United to win this game.

Shows the f**king ego of the man: assumes he's right, so pathologically incapable of waiting and seeing.

 

Nice tan for spring though.

I've been trying REALLY hard to be a Manure fan for 45 mins.....I just can't sustain that for 90.

 

I want a CP win, We will just have to do the job in Europe all by ourselves.

Unless Palace win, Clattenburg has effectively ruined this cup final. Even if Man U get three goals in the second half the appalling decisions to stop play when Palace had scoring opportunities will already be affecting both teams. Clattenburg has demonstrated why those who said he should not have been allowed to referee this match are shown to be right. A look at his history on the web shows how the FA have had to protect him over his insulting attitude towards players and on their track record they will protect him from his incompetence today.

This game has now been ruined for Man U as well because if they end up with the cup, it will be an embarrassment. Only a Palace win will now put the shocking refereeing decisions out of mind.

Edit: Remember the straight red for Wanyama against West Ham when it was questionable whether there was any contact.

Two dirty fouls by Palace have evened up the injustice of the two 'advantage' decisions that went against them in the first half perhaps?

Especially as Cabye managed to get Utds best player taken off injured...

This game was an abomination before it even kicked off.

 

What a terrible advert for the FA cup, especially in light of the fantastic PL season.

 

 

Is bloody awful certainly not a classic FA cup final.

A bit gutted for Puncheon. Hope he has an effect on the game. Nice lad who matured and sorted his personal problems.

 

Pleased for him if it proves the winner

Posted

Just thinking Puncheon and Pardew must have worked together at the JPT?

 

Flick back over to the final and there he is scoring! Would be an ex-Saints combo.
