Glory Glory Man Utd

This is a very nice article by Lazarus Rokk writer in NST .. Its Obvious he is a die-hard man utd fan ! Yeah!

I DON’T want to sound preachy, but following last Sunday night’s bellyaching in the Arsenal corner and Manchester United haters, I have been forced to transpose a philosophical line used with great effect by the Messiah himself, on those who are quick to judge others.
Let the club that has not benefitted from a human error of a referee in the English Premier League, or any tournament for that matter, cast the first stone at Mike Riley.

And Jesus Christ, if there is anyone who should not even think about admonishing referees, least of Riley, it is the English game's Incredible Sulk Arsene Whiner (Wenger) — Whiner/Wenger, what difference does it make.

The Arsenal manager should be reminded, before he casts that stone, of two very consequential human errors last season that not only gift-wrapped their EPL title, but also their proud unbeaten record.

Arsenal would not be talking about an unbeaten season, or their unbeaten run in 49 league matches, if they hadn't been awarded a penalty which hauled their arrogant butts out of a 1-0 defeat following Robert Pires' Oscar-winning dive — which he later admitted to — against Portsmouth.

For the benefit of Wenger and the hordes of Arsenal fans, let me refresh their short memories. It was on Sept 13, Portsmouth were ahead 1-0 at Highbury, and with time running out fast, it didn't look like an equaliser was in their sights.

Then came that dive from Pires after the Frenchman had kicked defender Dejan Stefanovic, whose leg was well out of the Arsenal striker's path. The penalty was awarded to Arsenal, twice, and on both times Thiery Henry put it away for the 1-1 draw.

You can't get anymore unfair than that. But whether he was smart or just honest, Pires owned up to his Hollywood-like stunt, the following day.

Another human error was in the league match against United at Highbury last season when TV cameras picked out Henry in an offside position seconds before he scored the equaliser in a grudge match that belonged to the Red Devils, which eventually ended in a 1-1 draw.

The reality of human errors in this context is that, until and unless the authorities see the sense of turning to the electronic eye to make the fair decisions in crucial parts of the park, we will all have to deal with seemingly unfair decisions.

True, Arsenal were unjustly punished with a penalty. But it wasn't just the penalty that did the champions in. Wayne Rooney who provided the drama that led to the penalty, also drove the dagger in deeper with his clinical finish that came off a brilliant move.

Fans of Arsenal explained that the damage had been done, that the penalty had killed their spirit. And I totally agree, as only teams with character and the true mettle of champions will lift themselves from their affliction and show what they are made of.

Well, we saw what the new kings of English football were made of that night, didn't we? But honestly I can feel their pain, and their frustration. If I was an Arsenal fan, I would feel angry and frustrated too simply because since becoming the new force in English football, they have yet to beat the "old force".

It wouldn't have mattered much to me as a fan or even Wenger if my team had won the title — like they did last year — without beating United, the team they wrested the crown from.

I know what that feels like, because in 2001 when United were league champs again, they were beaten both at Old Trafford and Anfield by Liverpool, the team who were our nemesis for a long while.

Every satisfaction I believe must reach a point of climax, and in that win, I didn't have mine. It's like having this great meal, and then when you have finished you feel there was an ingredient that was missing.

We made a meal out of Liverpool since then, and to me the Reds are no longer our bitter or better rivals. That's one demon the Red Devils have banished to hell, for good.

As for Arsenal, until such time when they truly banish the Devils to hell, Wenger, and the Gunners' hordes of fans, will just have to console themselves with whatever title they win.

As for Manchester United, they have allowed their fans to strut the walk, and belch with delight after they won the FA Cup by booting out the best team in England in the semi-finals. And are still doing it — even from their fifth position in the league.

Glory, glory Man United.

its too early

hey back in 1992 united were 11 points behind newcastle in the begining of the season and what happened in the end ??/ alex ferguson lifted that coverted premiership crown ...arsenal have never successfully defended their crown in ages [maybe never not sure yet]...anything can happen in football especially in the english premier league ...so alex pls do not put aside the possibility that MANCHESTER UNITED ARE BACK IN THE TITLE RACE

-klown-

49 Unbeaten Run Vs. ONE win =/

Well, Arsenal lost a game in the League.

How long have we actually heard that line? MU fans are seen going Haha, cheering and applauding at the success of their team which actually, is not a really big thing at all. In fact, it's nothing compared to the achievements achieved by the losing team last night. I actually laugh out loud when i hear people say "MU are back for the title race! MU will make a comeback!" When what? Er..they won one game... they are 5th in the table.... they are 8 points behind...they played bad football and definitely wasn't the better side of the match. Er, back for title race? If you say so.... =D. Whenever Arsenal had possession, MU had 10 men behind the ball... :O Everytime Reyes had the ball, he will either be kicked or will be brought to the ground.. everytime a tackle is being attempted, a MU player will fall so early even before an Arsenal player actually made contact. :/ Wow. Great football. They are back for the title race! :|

Eventhough as an Arsenal fan, i'm disappointed that the run is over, It is bound to happen sometime actually.. 3 possibilities, a win, a draw and a lose... so it's basically 33.33% that it would happen in any game. But due to the strength of great great Arsenal, it had taken so long for it to Finally happen. 49 unbeaten games.. who could actually top that record? Winning a league unbeaten... I definitely think we won't be seeing such things anytime soon. Probably just not with the current teams in the league, maybe just except Arsenal who had already proved critics wrong and went thru a whole league and 9 games unbeaten. Amazing.

While MU fans are jumping for joy and celebrating over ONE win over Arsenal, the premiership champions who are the current leaders of the League Table, had already made into the record books for having the longest unbeaten run and winning a whole league unbeaten. Outstanding.

N besides, if we are gonna talk about deserving winners last night, in my honest honest opinion, Arsenal maybe didn't looked like they were gonna win, but MU didn't deserved the win as well. The football flow played was simply better and at least they didnt need to injure players to stop them from playing or just 'dive' when they enter the penalty box. Maybe it's just the cunning Ferguson's tactics. Well, i don't blame him anyway for making a desperate attempt to beat the current title holders who are just one word, better.

The referee? LOL. Even a funnier matter. A penalty is given when there was no initial cause in the first place and a penalty is not given when it is supposed to be. And the Ljungberg incident? No cards were given, not even a foul. Talking back about the penalty, Rooney fell far too easily. Even Rooney didn't deny it at first.
Wenger added:"I don't think there was any contact and if you look at the images Rooney told our
players nobody touched him."


Gosh.... I bet the penalty claim will cause many debates so I'll just say very clearly that.. IN MY OPINION, it wasn't a penalty at all. Bump.

"You get used to it when you play at Old Trafford, we are used to it," said Vieira referring to the penalty award.

Yeap, United got the players, and the 'best' referees .. :)

So before SOME MU fans start to feel like they are at the top of the world, I should congratulate them and then ask them to wait till the end of this season. :)
And, i shouldn't type anymore things! It will just simply result to people calling me a bad-loser. :/ It's weird. They or the certain MU fans i know rather don't accept defeat easily and gives all sorts of weird excuses and yet they will criticise whichever team MU beats. Hm.. Have some sportsmanship. :) Eventhough the deserving winners didn't achieve victory last night, yet i'm sure it will just make them stronger and win the League 2nd time running. Our biggest challengers at the moment are Chelsea and Everton anyway.. :P Keke..

-An Arsenal Fan-

p/s: The whole post is just simply all my personal honest opinions and has no intention to offend anyone or any party reading this. IF you still feel offended, oh well, screw it. I get it everyday.. :) Cheers!

it has ended finally ... [ especially for you alex ]

ahahahaha it was 1:06 am [malaysian time] when the final whistle blew at old trafford ...49 game unbeaten run came to an end ahaha wat a sweet sweet way to end it hehehhe manchester united were just the best team this morning ...the title race has just started
