Van Nistelrooy was actually quite an underrated striker, one of the best finishers and predatory front men there was. But he was Dutch, the Dutch are dirty bastards. And it felt like at times the non existent refereeing at Old Trafford meant he was given licence to be a vicious shit. Stray kicks, dragging his studs down people’s legs, even punches and elbow.Originally Posted by Letters

Vieira was foolish to react the way he did that day especially as a captain, but it was just sheer frustration at the way that dickhead threw himself into him and threw himself backwards like a rabbit trying to avoid being run over when Vieira again foolishly but understandably kicked out.
Players like Keown and Lauren knew the score, they were getting digs in because of what he’d done to get Vieira sent off
Upgraded stadium plans are gaining pace apparently
While it would annoy Daniel Levy, who pathetically made sure their toilet had 61k seats just because ours has 60k, as someone who goes to the games it sounds like it will cause a lot of disruption

Liverpool forward Diogo Jota has dies in a car crash, aged 28.
This puts everything into perspective, what a terrible thing to happen
Yep shocking news - reminds me of Reyes.
Putting the laughter back into manslaughter
Indeed
Interesting. I remember at the time there was debate on here about whether there was any potential for further expansion. Some on here said there wasn't, I said I'd be surprised if that's the case as it would have been a bit short sighted. So...as always...Letters woz right. Unless I wasn't and it's going to be a massive ballache to expand it.
The impression I always had was that Islington Council had a veto on expansion (but then again they were opposed to it being constructed in the first place).Interesting.

We aren’t allowed to have concerts at night time. Robbie Williams performed at the Emirates about three-four weeks ago but it was a late afternoon start time.
It always feels like we do our bit but the local authorities don’t reciprocate. For example we were asked to build a railway bridge for the Northern City Line at Drayton Park, but did TFL expand the facilities at the station to make it usable on match days? Did they fuck.
I think personally the stadium needs renovating anyway. Seats need replacing, larger screens need putting in, need to either put in WiFi or improve the 5G coverage.
And just a general lick of paint and facelift
Islington Council have been pricks about this from the start. Given the money we must generate for the local economy you'd think they'd be more amenable.

Have to say this is a bit of a pity, rarely had a bad game when he did play but just couldn’t stay fit. Hope he’s able to pick up his career elsewhere
