Press bloke for Fivelive was on just then saying a car pulled alongside them and starting asking "liverpool liverpool?" then made threats to them.



I would say it sounds football related wouldn't you?



As for it not being at the match itself so maybe in your and his eyes not football relation, police over here can use say singing loud football songs in the street while in town against you in applying for a banning order from football grounds.

What do you physically want UEFA to do out of interest, just ban the culprits caught by the police from grounds aye?

Its been suggested that it could be quite lively in Manchester tonight. Apparently Lech Poznan have sold their full allocation of tickets to fans based in Poland but are also expecting about 3,000 UK based Polish fans who have also bought tickets. Its not clear that City's arrangements for ensuring adequate segregation have been 100% (they've allocated a different part of the ground for the UK based Poles). Its claimed that there will be a bigger police presence for this game than the derby. Could be problematic.

City's opponents tonight cannot resist the temptation.

Rumours that Roy is leaving after the game on talksport.



One can only hope.

Great post

Ian Holloway - F*ckin' A!

Ian Holloway seems to be of the opinion that players are pieces of meat.

Well, unfortunately for Rooney, his options are becoming ever limited.







Gill and his mates have told United fans to be patient, and that we will find put soon what is going to happen after all of today's meetings between Gill, Fergie and Rooney's representatives.



Meanwhile, Fergie has cancelled tomorrow's press conference.

This is the second to last nail in man united golden era coffin.



The final nail being when ferguson FINALLY decides to hang up his hair dryer.



When a club can no longer keep hold of their best players, and no longer has the financial muscle to replace them and compete with other top clubs, it rings massive alarm bells. The club is only going one way and it isn't up.



I suspect this whole saga will trigger a chain of events which sees man united enter a sustained trophyless period.



Ferguson will not go willingly.



The old scot is looking more haggard than ever. I suspect his health will deteriorate rapidly before he releases his deathly grip on the club. Possibly even only on his bed in hospital, will he finally be releived of command.



and then, manchester united will pass away.

It appears Mr Rooney has had a home visit from the re-mobilised Manchester Education Committee. Not sure if this will influence his decision.

But, as wrong as this sounds, I sorta feel sorry for United. I know myself how it feels to have owners screw the club out of any future. United are one of the best run clubs in the country, their scouting, facilities, marketing and the rest is as good as it gets, but some knob takes them over, piles a shed load of debt on them and that's the club crippled for the best part of a decade.



As much as I hate United, no club deserves that, regardless of what their fans, players or whatever say, they deserve to compete if the club is capable of competing. Would love the Glazers to get epically swindled.

Just been watching Citeh, as it was highlighted at the end; just how good is David Silva?



I said when he came, he'll be the best player in the league if Citeh build their team around him and he adds goals to his game. He plays like a bit of everything, the way he breaks through the middle reminds me of Kaka, his dribbling and movement reminds me of Iniesta, but I feel his ability to link play - particularly on the counter-attack - is almost unmatched. A fabulous player who I've wanted at Liverpool since his spell at Celta. If he starts scoring more, then there's no reason he can be to Citeh what Kaka was to Milan.

I wouldn't even bother commenting on it. Pathetic.



Ian Holloway



Never afraid to speak his mind.

Brilliant isn't it.

It's amazing. I'm loving every minute of it.

Ian Holloway is just sensational. He is the biggest breath of fresh air in English football ever! He is just superb, you couldn't write stuff as good as he comes out with.



His anti Rooney/Agents/UEFA/FIFA/'Whoever is in charge' rant today was absolute genius. He was shouting at the journalists.





He HAS to be borderline mentally ill. If Blackpool were involved in a dramatic relegation at the end of the season I think he'd be sectioned.

He's a fantastic player, Utd have been linked with him every summer for a few years now and I always hoped he would come.

"Alex Freguson has been bullied by a player" is the best line I've heard for a while.

Rumours he may stay.

Good? Bad? You seemed to forgive Ronaldo instantly, maybe Wazza could receive similar treatment.

I am finding the whole Blooney saga hilarious. Very, very funny.



We have Ferguson looking close to tears, the MiB threatening Blooney’s life and Blooney states that he doesn’t rate a lot of players at United.



Whether he stays or not, he has caused a lot of damage. For that reason, it has been very entertaining.



The demise of United will be televised.

I love watching him play. His weight of pass and accuracy is something else. He can even create openings with a simple pass because it is almost always perfect.



Probably one of the worst individual performances I have ever seen last night - SWP was awful last night. Very poor.
