“Crisis” on the way for Man Utd?

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

 The tabloids often turn a poor run of results for big clubs into a “crisis”. I guess this is in line with their perception of what is arrogantly expected. Anyway, I suspect a loss in the Champions League to Villareal (at Home) and the to Chelsea (away) in the Premiership would trigger a “crisis”, especially considering the loss against Liverpool.

In addition with the worlds financial markets in turmoil will shirt sponsors be able to continue their sponsorship???

Evra charged with improper conduct

Friday, July 18th, 2008

Patrice Evra has been charged with improper conduct for his role in the “battle of the bridge”. The Manchester United defender was involved in an altercation with Chelsea groundstaff after the April 26 clash. charge. He now faces an FA ban or could be fined if found guilty. I hope it is a ban because on his salary a fine will likely to be meaningless. :(

The width of a post

Thursday, May 22nd, 2008

Man Utd win the cup all but for the width of a post, a potentially phychologically scared England penalty taker, no England in Euro 2008 which is now looming……

 Can anyone cheer up this blog? May be we could debate how to spell the word begining with “ph” above…..

Chelsea v Man Utd Champions League Final

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Well the day has arrived for “the biggest game in domestic English football”. This game is the first all English final, which is to be played in Moscow. The match will last until Thursday due to the local time kick off! The English have taken the weather with them as it is currently raining! This of course may help the newly laid grass pitch which is subject to some scrutiny.

As a consequence of the “Rangers Riot” in the centre of Manchester during and after the other recent European Final there will be no public event for the fans to watch the game or even for a timely victory parade through the streets for either set of fans (note: is this still true and would anyone care to comment on this?). Of course the victory parade could be planned for London as this would be the most convenient location for both sets of fans.

For the travelling fans there is the treat of harsh treatment for public drinking / drunkenness. This is apparently so “English yobs” will not spoil Russia’s biggest sporting event since the Moscow Olympics!

Boots

The specially commissioned Man Utd kit and the latest design of football boots are said to be a popular line of merchandise with the fans.

Good luck to Chelsea.

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Avram Grant the Chelsea manager has suggested referees are biased towards Man Utd in this article on the BBC Sport Website. He draws reference to the sending off of Jon Mikel Obi before Man Utd went on to beat Chelsea 2-0 and a decission not to send Paul Scholes off in the title decider on the final day of the season at Wigan.

Chelsea win at Newcastle - Title run in

Newcastle v Chelsea

Nicky Butt (American for ar*ehole) and his team could not stop Chelsea winning by 2 goals to nil. This means it is all square on points between Man Utd and Chelsea at the top of the table with one game to go of the 07/08 season. Man Utd have the benefit of goal difference. Chelsea play at home v Bolton next and Man Utd travel to Wigan next.
