Hate Man Utd

We are aware that the media is biased towards Man Utd but it is seldom this obvious! The BBC website has the following article entitled: 

“Man Utd striker Wayne Rooney shortlisted for PFA award“

Further the article states:

“Rooney is joined on the four-man shortlist by Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas, Chelsea striker Didier Drogba and Manchester City ace Carlos Tevez.”

Implying Rooney was first on the list and the others were added to make up the numbers?

I cannot see the equavent aticle headlined by “Fabregas of mighty Arsenal shortlisted to win PFA award” or similarly biased pieces toward a particular player or team on the same website. So there it is the BBC are closet reds.

Needs to prey to be in with a chance with the media already on the side on Man Utd.

Yes it hurts when you know the result of the PFA is not going your way.

Drown your sorrows! At least you should know how this lot operates.

Arsene Wenger has added a new phrase to the English Language: “Old Traffordish“. Roughly translated it refers to poor penalty decisions that go to Manchester United at Old Trafford.

“The penalty decision was ‘Old Traffordish’. There were a lot of things that happened which were beyond belief. The ref made the decision from the middle of their half, so I don’t know how. It is difficult to go home without a point when these things happen. You know what you are going to get every time you come to Old Trafford.”, Said Wenger.

The ref was Mike Dean for the record. Arsenal lost 2-1 with their own penalty claim turned down and a late goal disallowed.

Of course this will be biased…..

The pivotal moment was when Man Utd were 1-0 up on the day (2-0) on aggregate. Ronaldo dives and wins a free kick, John O’Shea pushes the end of the wall out of the way and Ronaldo scores a “wonder goal”. It’s all a cheat - but will you see an account of this in the press? I think not - please correct me if I’m wrong. At 1-0 down on the night Arsenal could have rallied and the result (especially with the home crowd still interested) could have been so different.

To cap it off I’m in the newsagents and I see a front page banner image on The Sun (I could be wrong to the newspaper as I cannot find it on their website, but it was one of the tabloids) of Ronaldo with arms out stretched (representing the Crucifixion) and the text “Cristiano Almighty” - an obvious reference to God or Jesus Christ status. This is just too bloody much! Religious heresy - comments please!!!!

I’m aware Man Utd fans feel aggrieved at the ref - but one player missing the final or all of them is the argument I’m putting up here.

As a foot note I read that an Arsenal fan took his own life after the match.

The arrogance of Manchester United is sometimes beyond belief! They are planning the Champions League victory parade ahead of the first leg semi final with Arsenal. OK they are dressing it up as a saftey issue…… but come on, this is arrogance at a new level

Arsenal, Chelsea or Barca fans any comments????

Manchester United fans believe they are on for a sextuplet. Let me stress the point, they think they are on the verge of a 6 trophy haul, of the Charity Shield, World Club Championship, Carling Cup, FA Cup, Premiership and Champions League. Let’s nip this in the bud now!

 1. The Charity Shield must not count, how many teams fans can comment here when they have won 1 trophy (or more) in previous seasons and not declared a “double”, “treble” etc…. Please comment this is an important point if you hate Manchester United.

 2. The World Club Championship was a 6 horse race where Man Utd were entered at the last 4 stage. In principle it cannot count based on the quality of the opposition and the size of the tournament.

3. The Carling Cup (aka The League Cup) is a traditional part of the 4 trophies that would be included in the English League “Quadruple”. On this occasion Manchester United were let in at round earlier (ed - should read later) than some other Premiership teams. Akin to Formula 1 where the fastest car starts at the front of the race.

 4. The FA Cup. A tournament Manchester United have historically devalued by not participating in. I need say no more.

5. The Premiership. A straight race, should count. Come on Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Aston Villa and any other team involved in the race for top spot or playing Man United…

6. The Champions League. Again a straight race, should count. Come on Inter Milan and others.

The effect on football’s future generation(s) is pending. Kids will see Man United win all six (sic) trophies and conclude there is no other team worth supporting. The death of football is waiting…. Register your disapproval here.

A good 6 pointer for the Gunners. We would love to hear your comments……

Arsenal are on a relatively bad run of results and have plenty of injuries. They have never lost to one of the other “big four” at The Emerates, lets hope that continues…..
