I assume it was their way of not publicising a pitch invader but me being the sensitive type I objected to that reference. Because idiot or not for running on, the lad is still a blue. It's a bit like the Grand National when all the horse lovers complained about the dead horses being referred to as obstacles.
Have to say though that if you are going to run on at the final whistle, make sure it is the final whistle.
Whenever the odious, repellent slob that is Alan Green is commentating at a Dipper or MANUre match, a goal is greeted with his nauseating voice reaching a crescendo that would indicate that he is vigorously pulling on his todger, and the climax is reached with either ROOOOOOOOOONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY or SUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRREZ. Last night he described the build up to 'our' goal and then it was a rather bemused 'Who's scored that? Was it Kompany? No, it was Peter Crouch' offered to the Radio5 faithful in rather muted, begrudging tones.
Note to Peter Crouch: 'Yer Mum sez yer can come back 'ome now'.

The sort of Blue we don't want - I hope he's got a Wembley ticket and it's taken off him. Milner and de Jong didn't know he if he was going to run up and punch them - look what happened to the Bury keeper. I wish he had taken a swing at de Jong - that would have been interesting - if Nige hadn't sparked him there'd have been another pitch invasion - then he would have ended up as debris on the pitch.
45,000 other City fans managed to stay off the pitch - why couldn't that knob.
