I honestly find them (players and fans alike) more dislikeable now than back when they were dominant and winning everything.I really fucking hate Fernandes, Garnacho not too far behind, Antony close as well, Martinez right up there. That team is full of horrible dislikeable cunts!
There was that red for Torsten Frings at the 2006 world cup after Germany and Argentina players got into a "melee".How many players were actually sent off retrospectively.
I only remember Aguero.
That reeked of corruption.
Has anyone mentioned SWPs retrospective 3 match ban after t Stoke away against Delap which was sponsored by a obsessed MSM campaignThere was that red for Torsten Frings at the 2006 world cup after Germany and Argentina players got into a "melee".
Still, that's only because the Italians were being arseholes insisting on it when they were not even involved, as a RAI TV camera picked it up and sent it to FIFA.
Yes but they were players who were not carded during a game but retrospectively given a red. I was referring to players who were given a yellow that was later upgraded to a red after the game. It only happened once and commentators have frequently pointed out, before and since, that this can never happen under PL/FA rules. How many times has a player received a yellow only for commentators to say "He's a lucky boy"?Loads of plays have got retrospective bans though. It doesn’t tend to happen now VAR is in place though.
They were common before it though.
Remember this one (the first on the video) - the David Gill briefed officials retrospectively decided that it was just a coming together;-
The media will put their spin on things when it comes to the Rags to make them happy.
Ragcliffe owns 25% of the football club, Apparently he's in charge of the "football side of things"...Yet he wants taxpayers to buy him a new stadium.
The Glazers are still top dogs at the shithole as they are the majority stakeholders.
Only time will tell if the scruffy fucker will put his own money where his mouth is.
Fucking hell you do like to labour a point don't you? What does a takeover mean to you? Here's one of the many definitions out there. They all basically say the same thing.
" A takeover occurs when one company makes a successful bid to assume control of or acquire another."
The media are constantly saying he's taken over Manchester United. He hasn't. Whatever role he has in the club is irrelevant, he hasn't acquired it or taken it over. If they said he's taken over the footballing side of the club that's probably correct but it's a different thing altogether than what they're implying.
