Ugh.
Tonight's match proved nothing when four of the goals came after a sending off that should never have been. What do you expect is going to happen playing a half with ten men against the best attack in the country? Depending on what you consider "interfering in play" - since Ade neither touches the ball nor prevents Joe Hart from seeing or reaching the ball - then the equalizer should have stood, and who knows what happens from there? 1-1 with 11 men is a world apart from 0-2 with 10. For every Old Trafford, you sometimes get a game like this. Write it off and keep going. Win at Hull at the weekend and it's 6 wins and a draw from 8. That's great form.
You're a weird fucking fan anyway. You only post here to bellyache when we lose or speculate that "the" Spurs (LOL) will lose to Fulham. How did that game end up by the way? You've been conspicuous by your silence during the recent good form. If you decide that glory hunting is more important than supporting your team win, lose or draw, then City, Chelsea or the Gooners are welcome to you.
COYS & TTID.
Well I watched the game and Spurs were pretty shit. United for the title.

While Super Bowl is on I just can't await World Cup to start in Brazil.
Simpsons predicted Mexico to play Portugal.
This totally could happen from Semi-final onwards!

That episode is at least 10 years old thought, right And that was a shit gag at the expense of the American fallacy that football is boring.

That was in response to Simpsons predict 2014 Super Bowl in 2005...Well, Americans find football boring... but look how popular it is in total number of players...

Plus, their national team is at least much better, than American general public recognises.
If USA isn't number one, it doesn't count.
One of the things I like about Football: all this enthusiasm for teams never, or almost never win major titles.
The African teams, Japan, even Mexico and the Netherlands, Switzerland, Sweden, Portugal...
sacking moyes would change nothing, the squad specially in midfield has not the quality to compete with the top teams.

Their defense isn't much better either and as for De Gea....
Looks like Moyes will be busy this summer Their defense isn't much better either and as for De Gea....
Sunderland gaffe aside, I think De Gea has been alright this season. He's been kept busy, that's all.
The real shame of the defence is that Ferguson acquired Smalling and Jones who had formed a good partnership for the Under 21s and wasted a few years trying to turn one into a right back and the other into a midfielder, else they'd have had their ready-made partnership to replace Ferdinand and Vidic good to go by now. As it is, their most reliable centre back might be Evans. Bizarre.

He might get better for as long as Man U have him,but I don't think he'll get to Schmeichel's level.Perhaps maybe nearer to Van Der Sar's in a few years.
It'll be a hard job to sort that one out imo. Does Moyes spend big in the summer, or will he just go for Jagielka to help with the development of both Smalling & Jones??

You have to be optimistic at these stages, as anything could happen :1orglaugh
Rly, tartanterrier ? We're waiting for your team in Warsaw in March
Is that where we are playing you?? I think Gdansk would have been a better venue, as us Scots have links with Gdansk.But Warsaw will do
They haven't said where the German match is going to be.Hopefully it'll be in Berlin,Hamburg or Dortmund.

Our group should be easy for Germany. I hate how the German officials and news people either say a group is a killer group (not our group this time) or a makeable group.
Of course this group is makeable, you fools! You have the ambition to win the title. Of course you should easily be able to not only qualify for the tournament, but win this group! Everything else would be embarrassing!
And stop fucking celebrating yourselves for winning such an easy group like after the wc qualification round! It's the least you had to do! Celebrate yourselves after winning an actual title!
(Nothing against Scotland, Ireland and Poland. They have good and fighting teams)
I hope it will be Berlin or Dortmund. The two most beautiful stadiums we have in Germany.

Hamburg sucks! I was there once and the stadium is ugly and dirty. Bird shit everywhere.

Bold prediction - if Bale and Ramsey stay fit for the qualifying campaign, I have a feeling they might make the play-offs or at least only miss out by a couple of points. Possibly by virtue of the "you score two but we'll score four" victories, since their defence is suspect, but they've got two genuine diamonds up the pitch, and could surprise and outscore most of the teams in their group. Not Belgium.

Was that the St Pauli ground or Hamburg's stadium? I think the Hamburg stadium is recently new isn't it, although the team has been pretty shit this year.
My personal pick out of Dortmund or Berlin would be Dortmund as my father was there for the 74 World Cup so it would be nice to be with him 40 years later watching Scotland together.If it happens I'm definitely going there.Berlin would also be a good choice too though.
