More blatant cheating from a Manchester U player

[lapsedhibee]

Following Young's antics at the weekend, tonight a Manchester U player stands directly in front of the Leverkusen goalie - preventing him getting to Rooney's shot - and then completely fails to own up to the referee!

Disgrace. :grr: :panic:

He probably needs new laces.

:agree: Let's hope Moyesie calls for retrospective punishment for the player concerned, as he was suggesting at the weekend for other forms of ungentlemanliness.

Come on you Reds!

:not worth

Thats a fine colour of shirt the manky goelie is wearing, a good away strip colour for the hibees me thinks

[ballengeich]

Even the ITV analysts are admitting that the goal should have been disallowed. Either the linesman or the extra official behind the goal could have advised the referee what had happened. In practice, the extra officials just allow more opportunities for buckpassing.

Route one hoofball.

Rooney won't play for Moyes.

Van Persie and Rooney can't play in the same team.

Route one hoofball.

I've often wondered what are the alternative routes available, and how are they numbered? Is tippy-tappy football Route Two, and if not what is? :dunno:

They are named for the number of passes prior to a shot on goal.

So Route One = one big hoof and someone sclaffs the ball in the vague direction of the six-yard box.

More cultured football can be termed anything between Route Two and Route ∞, depending on the skill/patience of the players.

Hope that helps.

[nonshinyfinish]

Is there a standard spelling of 'sclaff'?

If not, why not?

I don't really get where all the United are doomed chat has come from.

Won the league at a canter last year, very good goalkeeper, settled central defence for the 1st time in about 3 seasons, the form midfielder in the league, one of the best forwards in the world and a few players with real potential.

I'd settle for having those problems at ER (albeit on a different scale).

About 5 miles up the A56 and about 4 miles along the M62.

All the pundits predicting Man City or Chelsea to win the league - I didn't see any predict United

:hijack: Route 1 - Route 4 came from a sixties TV show called Quizball. Competing professional football teams played each other in a knock out tournament. Footballers then and now not the brightest so Route 1 - 1 point was the most common way of trying to score points and goals.
Celtic usually did well since they had the Dentist Jim Craig playing for them.....

Route 1 was the hardest, was it not? 1, moderately hard, question. If you got it right, you scored. One can see the analogy with hoofball.

Route 4 was the easiest. 4 questions along the lines of "what colour is the sky?". The other team could challenge but, if they got their challenge question wrong, the atatcking team scored.

I was watching the game last night, and a distant memory surfaced the sort that comes to you and leaves you thinking did I make that up?

So the memory in question is this, Hibs played Everton at ER in a friendly in the late 90's and I seem to recall a young (teenage) fat looking Wayne Rooney playing and getting in a row with Tam McMannus and both having to get subbed off at the ref's request. Can anyone verify this or in my old age have I started to make stuff up?

cheers

Aye, it happened. Rooney was about 15, was proper hot-headed. Game finished 2-2

cheers! yeah I remember Rooney getting dogs abuse from the stands for being a wee fat radge, I also remember thinking how much better our promising youngster Tam McMannus looked and how I was proved right, whatever happened to the boy Rooney?

Think it was around 2001-ish, also remember Rooney stamping on John o'neils's calf after he'd had the ball taken off him

I also seem to remember loads of Everton fans wearing tops with Rooney on the back.

As you say he could only have been 15 but even then was a big deal among the Everton support.

Remember that game too. Didn't Shrek actually score in it? If so must have been one of his first goals in a first team shirt

Indeed he did! just found a match report from an everton fan site, although I would take it with a pinch of salt as they state ER is in Glasgow and call refer to our Tam as Mick McMannus!

Garry O and Tam for hibs, with shrek and a late Unsworth pen equalising for Everton.

Shrek subbed off after his confrontation with Tam!
