anyone else think rooneys appeal could get turned down or extended because of the FA trying to get blatter to resign? i think everyone knows the FA and FIFA don't like each other and whats happened in recent days they could use the rooney situation to punish us.

Ed where is my post on De Jong earlier?

I thought it was a frank assessment of him just with a few swear words? ;-)

Jono {Ed007's Note - Probably the swearing then mate. It wasn't me, but that is probably why.}

Ed001 you made a comment earlier about some of my posts being almost racist. I would ask you to retract that statement as they are in no way racist. They are derogatory about Scousers and i stand by that but Scousers are not a race of people they are regional. If you can provide any evidence of a racist comment i have ever made then please supply it if not then retract. i am serious RAINFISHTROMBONE {Ed001's Note - you can be as serious as you want, but you need to learn what racism means if you think your posts aren't borderline, at the least. I will not retract it, you have come close to being blocked numerous times for your offensive comments, but I have settled for deleting those particularly below the belt because you often have interesting stuff to say. You can't even treat your fellow Manchester United fans with respect, just for having the good luck to not be in Manchester! It was actually some of those posts I was referring to with the borderline racism anyway, though you will find that racism can be classed as referring to a group of people, including those from a particular region. The stuff about Scousers I wouldn't take any notice of myself, I have heard far worse going to school down south during the 80s when we were the enemy of Thatcher.}

fergy “Dimitar is still in my thoughts. I have read some things but there is absolutely no reason for me to let him go. He is an outstanding footballer and we will give him the extra year,” Sir Alex explained ahead of his club’s trip to Wales to square off against a resilient Swansea side.

Fergie added: “It is unfortunate the form of Javier Hernandez over the last year has been outstanding but he (Berbatov) plays a great role and he trains well. He has no complaints. The boy is a great professional and we are happy for him to be here.”

A couple of questions for the eds or any1 that can answer. why is macheda still here? do you have any idea why he hasnt been loaned out? anyhow it looks likely he will be going to either everton or sunderland on loan ?
Another one is why isnt pogba playing? the guy is strong and can apparently cope with physical nature of the epl without much trouble. Do you think he might be loaned out?
Anyways i wanted to wish peter schmeikel ( spelling ) happy birthday . Truely a united legend

I've been reading this site for a month or so now and I'm not much of a fan of BPL, but I saw United and Liverpool fans fighting here often.
Of course these all arguments are biased towards your teams, so I sat down with my freinds both United and Pool supporters and asked about their true opinions (when they were drunk). I came up with following conclusions:

Is Suarez better than Rooney ? Not at all but can reach the same level but would be in some other team by then.

Could United supporters see him at OT ? Yes, he is better than Hernandez. An interesting answer was that SAF wont take the most hated player in the African continent cause there is a growing market (and not many people watch BPL there) and it will have a bad effect on United's market. I cant say anything.

Is Carrol worth 35m ? No ,Hernandez is better than him in tapping in the ball (for which Carrol was purchased). After seeing the goals he scored for Newcastle I think Pool missed an integral part of Carrol which was Nolan. Most of the goals were crosses headed by one of them and tapped in by other.

Is KD better than SAF ? Only for the fact that he removed all the dead wood from Liverpool.

SAF's biggest mistake: Amazingly it wasnt buying or selling any player but his strategy in last years CL final against Barca. Even after knowing that United's midfield was nothing compared to Barca he thought of giving the fans a visual spectacle which turned out to be humiliation for the club. Instead he could have put 10 men behind the ball with only one motive ,defending then the chances of winning could have been more.

City scout Claudio Cancellieri confirmed their interest on Radio Crc.

"I confirm the interest of Manchester City for three talents of Napoli and I think this should only please the Azzurri fans," he said.

Well now Mancini wants Lavezzi, Hamsik and Cavani also.You've got to be kidding now.
If the sheikh doesnt know how to spend his money then I wish he could read this, it will definitely help,
"Dear sheikh, it comes to my notice that you are having a problem regarding where to throw away your cash and I think like most rich people you dont believe in giving that money to the poor and needy ones dying all over the world due to starvation,war etc. so here's a suggestion:
Instead of putting all your money into City, you should buy 3 more bottom table teams. Buy the best players from all over the world and fill in your teams. This way you'll win everything by default as other teams wont have any players left to compete against your teams. A very logical suggestion."

I used to like Gus Poyet, but he is starting to p1ss me off. He keeps shouting that Suarez is not a racist and that he may have said one word in one moment, but that doesn't make him a racist, but he isn't being charged because he is a racist, he is being charged for using a word that the FA deem racist, one or more times.

I don't believe Terry or Suarez are racist, but if they have used racist words, then they should be charged and punished accordingly and Gus should wind his neck in.

Fergie's comment on the Cleverly situation

"We have options," he added. "Michael Carrick is back, we’ve got Darren Fletcher, Ryan Giggs. I can play Phil Jones there if I wish, we’ve got Darron Gibson coming back, Wayne Rooney has played there. Ji-sung Park can play there and we’ve done that in the past with him. So I have options and I’m not overly worried about it – I’m happy."

Well i'm not happy.... if he has choosen not to mention Pogba and Morrison. He doesn't even have to single anyone out, just an extra sentence of "and a couple or promising youth team players that could do with some game time" So I have options and I’m not overly worried about it – I’m happy."

at least then it would give us all some hope and the youth players too for that matter.

oh well heres to winning... and maybe even doing it in style....... (this way I will have some fingers left and not be so tense whilst watching our games)

Cleverley's out until Christmas. Two reasons why this is really disappointing news: 1) We have to rely on Anderson as the one source of creativity from CM. After a good start to the season he's slumped again. He's just not cut out to be a United player. And for another month, Anderson and co can continue to put in p!ss poor performances in CM because there's no real competition for their places. 2) On the 1st of January, after Cleverley has just made his return to the team, the media will ask Sir Alex, "Will United be buying any players this month?", the reply they'll get is: "No. Cleverley's just returned! He's like a new signing!".

Wow. Still in shock after finding out that Cleverley is out until Christmas. It's only a month but games come thick and fast at that time of year, and our central midfield is short in terms of quality as it is. On the other hand, he should be well-rested and fresh for the New Year, and perhaps this injury may give SAF no choice but to put some faith in our up-and-coming youngsters.

So who will line-up against Swansea tomorrow?

________De Gea
Jones__Ferd__Vida__Evra
_____Fletch__Clever
JSPark___Rooney___Young
_______Hernandez

Hernandez only played one game this week on the 11th so will be fit. Ferdinand, Vidic, Park, Rooney & Evra all never featured for their countries so should all start if not injured. Young & Cleverley if fit will start. I think Jones will play at RB seems Rafael played 90 minutes yesterday. Fletcher only played one game midweek on the 11th so should start too. If Cleverley isn't fit then Anderson or Carrick will play, if Young isn't fit then Nani will start and may switch sides with Park.

Thoughts lads?

Dear Editors is this a banter site as long as it is not against Liverpool FC. RAINFISHTROMBONE {Ed007's Note - Not when I'm about RFT, you know that mate. The only LFC editor that has access to edit this site is Ed001, and he might have his own opinion on things, but he wouldn't just delete something because he doesn't agree with it. I help out on their page if there are no LFC Eds about, I don't answer questions on it but post through stuff that doesn't require an Eds opinion, it helps keep the pages rolling. Again, I might not agree with it but if the post meets the site guidelines then I will post it.}

considering the chances of players on intl. Duty being rested, i suspect swansea game also will be another 1-0 in to us, although a part of me have a feeling that these recent 1-0s have to explode into serious thumping of oppenent sooner or later. It depends on whether best 11 plays or not.
