Any of you manks know if RvP will be out injured for your next game with his serious head wound only he's in my fantasy team? [/QUOTE] I would think its a certainty given that it was a life threatening incident. He should be out for some time what with concussion and all the scans and recuperation he will need. Mind you united do have a miracle worker on the medical team..look how quick nani recovered from his "shocking" injury at Anfield a couple of seasons back. So bad it made him cry! I a Was amazed at how RVP was able to carry on...the bravery of the man. SAF must have been very proud of the way he overcame his life threatening injury and got on with the game.
The more fool you lot for getting wound up by his comments. He clearly set out to wum people and looking at your reactions (and the media's) largely sucessful..
Course he did. He paused before taking aim, he's guilty as charged. I'm not even pretending Fergie wasn't talking bollocks but let's not lie and pretend if it had happened to Liverpool players you would not be, to a man, up in arms.
The over reaction to this is ridiculous. I've lost count of the number of times I've belted a ball at a mate when they're on the ground. Usually aim for the bollox but do get other areas including heads. ITS A BAG OF AIR!!!
I'm hangin out my arse and just woken up, but this is an interesting thread. Everyone in the league bar most United fans are aware of how Fergie comes out with comments which aim to put pressure on those in charge so the chances of favourable decisions goes up. He's been about so long people are scared to counter him. Its good to see a lot of people have woken up to his antics, good manager or not he is a total arse. United fans defending him is just amusing, and to use that classic phrase, "deluded".
Havin just read your comment on the United about me being a "tedious ****" and should "**** off back to your own board". I suggest you do the same you ****ing hypocrit.
Here Ellen, I've **** in a box and wrapped it for you, have a nice christmas. NIce to see you on the Liverpool board again - Utd's closed again?
Cheers B4F and Ruff, I wasn't wrong I was jumping the 'Making things seem worse than they are' Bandwagon. And your post about other managers being hypocritical, is just a sign of you not knowing what you are on about.
Total over reaction from bacon face. What that pikey Keane did to Halland was far worse in every possible way.
Williams was snide with what he did & it was dangerous, however, Fergusons rant about death was way OTT. I bet he regrets saying it tbh.
