Hate Man Utd

Ahead of the game with Hull City, Man Utd plan to play a weakened team as part of their preparation for the Champions League Final. Obviously a controversial decision based on Hull needing a win to stay in the top flight. Which impacts on the other teams who could be relegated today (Newcastle, Middlesborough and Sunderland).

Furguson has realised that if Man Utd lose they will be accused of damaging the integrity of the Premier League. And made the following quote:

“If we don’t win on Sunday I will be slaughtered on Monday. It will be the worst thing that has ever happened to the British game”. See above link for source of the quote.

Interesting…… Lets see what happens.

After 1,302 minutes  of torture for people who hate Man Utd, van der sar has conceded a premiership goal. One less thing for the plastic mancs to keep banging on about. For the record Peter Lovenkrands scored for Newcastle United v Manchester United.

Anyone out there offer any words of inspiration for a Newcastle win? Last season saw a 11-1 aggregate loss for Newcastle!

As the match will be played on Sunday to accommodate TV (yawn), at least Man Utd will not be top of the league after the first day of the Premiership season It will be interesting for those watching the match on TV for the number of times the commentator refers to Manchester United as “United”, showing their bias when playing another United team or the ignorant / arrogant Man Utd fans chant “United”.

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.
