Nothing wrong with their kit; as for faux big-time players, if indeed there are any and I don’t see it (e.g. QPR – Bosingwa) they’re all doing their bit for the club, reflected in the team’s standing. Play football the right way to boot. Good luck to them.

Old Mr red nose of selective sight, and memory (Kung Fu Cantona etc.). In desperate need of some elocution lessons, or may be it just the drink talking….

Unsavory incident – sure. Could have killed him, broken his neck ? Do me a favour. The old man ought to stop making a complete arse of himself.

all white with trimmed gold -media darlings which grates especially after only two years
Arrogant b@@@ards let’s see them do eight years and keep the feet on the ground[/quote]

what most likely grates (you and others) is the fact that they’re on track to have two cracking years in the PL (no one-season wonders), where they like us have had to sell better players and rebuild, …
something they’re currently doing very successfully (league position, new manager, Michu, etc.)

full credit to them, play football that is pleasing on the eye, unlike the likes of Stoke City.

their football style and league position currently does the talking for them, they don’t need to rely on ‘fancy kits’ ….

From were I was sat it looked pretty clear that Williams wanted to hit RVP. Just played it back 4 or 5 times and he’s actually looking at the ball or RVP head which were about 3 feet apart.

Yes he could have broke his neck quite easily, especially as RVP could not see it coming and therefore would have been relaxed.

If you know someone is going to tvvat you, then its easy to get tensed up and be ready for it, but whilst lied on the floor with your back to the assailant then anything could happen. If I was RVP I wouldn’t wait for the doddering FA to take action, I would be straight on to the police to report an assault. If any of us went up to a lad lying on the floor in King St and kicked him in the head from behind we would be locked up. That was just as bad in my opinion and he should be given a lengthy ban, just like Cantona got. :angry:

Fergie throwing stones from the greenhouse ….

Cantona, Keane, Scholes, ….

On the matter of spats, it always amuses me when I see ‘best buddy’ pundits Keane and Southgate together on ITV sport.

Not sure if many of you recall the Manure /Crystal Palace semi-final cup-tie some years back, when Keane stamped on Southgate, who at that time was lying flat out on the floor.

Not making this seem run of the mill stuff,and the rooney incident wasnt hand bags he ran towards McCarthy jumped into him and smashed his arm into his face, the ball was no where near him so this was deliberate, and if you read my last post i say it needs to be delt with, the point is when its fergies men its ok but when the boots on the other foot

The Rooney one was diabolical, premeditated assault, nothing less.
A red card and a lengthy ban should have followed.

Keane on hangelaand was also a career threatening challenge (did he ever recover from that?)

And scholes has made a career out of silly reckless challenges

It’s all in the game and what goes around comes around, what i take issue with is fergie calling for a lengthy ban, which is no better than holding up an imaginary card, something he has rightly condemned in the past, people in glass houses and all that.

And to over exaggerate by saying van persie could have been killed, well that’s just laughable, he’d be the first I’ve heard of to be killed by a football, and again, what goes round comes round, he’s hardly been a saint has he, I think Williams should have gone for the face off the rebound, give him something to really moan about!
