New Year Fixtures 30/31/1 (1000th Thread)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rooney doesn't start for Man Utd, not that it matters what side Man Utd put out apparently.

[Cripps_orig]

Forgot there was an early match. Might watch some of it at the Emirates if I'm early again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd: De Gea, Rafael Da Silva, Jones, Carrick, Evra, Nani, Valencia, Park, Welbeck, Hernandez, Berbatov.
Subs: Lindegaard, Anderson, Diouf, Pogba, Will Keane, Fryers, Cole.

Blackburn: Bunn, Lowe, Samba, Hanley, Pedersen, Henley, Nzonzi, Petrovic, Rochina, Formica, Yakubu.
Subs: Kean, Slew, Blackman, Goodwillie, Vukcevic, Morris, Linganzi.

Referee: Mike Dean (Wirral)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Howard Webb.

That decision still cracks me up. Surprised the grass didn't get a booking tbf.

[Dennis Bendtner]

I don't think Man Utd are playing with any CMs. Unless Jones and Carrick play there, in which case there are no CBs.

That's quite cool. Thinly veiled lulz at Steve Kean.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nani couldn't beat a one man wall.

And he gets booked trying to get the ball back off Yak.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pelanty to Blackeye!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd 0-1 Blackeye, Yakubu.

Berbatov gave the pelanty away.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Freekick UTD

[Coney]

Too soon. Blackburn needed that at 90+3 when the score was still 0-0. Now they have made manu angry. Holding out for 70+ minutes at OT will not happen, with manu players diving around the box getting pelanties.
