okay firstly, from what i saw it was more than a little nudge. but i guess we are never going to agree on that. secondly, i only brought it up because LFC listed all these decisions that went against liverpool. i feel like if you are going to list a list like that, while accusing all the united fans for being biased themselves, then you should mention things that didnt go the opposing way either. i never said it to fuel some sort of biased argument. i simply said it because of the hypocrisy in some of the posts. thirdly, LFC seriously...get a grip. all these posts to blah saying that all the united fans are gonna get mad, tell him off, how he is in for it etc etc whatever else the hell you said...think about it, most of those types of responses are aimed at you because the majority of your posts in match day threads are absurd. you actually have no right to call anyone bias. i dont know if you have noticed, but there are a large amount of liverpool and united fans on here who are able to talk sensibly and humbley everytime our two sides meet. fourthly, LFC i have not once said responded to anyone other than you about the ref being biased. you arent the only one who has said it, paddy said it and blah said it, and i cant remember who else. but there is a huge difference between their posts and yours. i've not denied that the ref was lenient towards us, in fact i'm one person on here (like many others) who can actually give opinions and not be biased, i said neville shouldnt have got away with what he did, i said fletcher acted childish, and im sure there were other things as well. but when you start making our like blah is going to be hounded by us like some insane mob...utterly ridiculous. can you honestly say you arent surprised at how some people act towards some of your match day posts? fifthly and finally, saying the ref is a united fan 2 days before the game even starts says it all really. the end. sorry LCF, but some of your posts since this afternoon have irked me  my post wasnt aimed at you. i am just well shocked that saggys post that is all. i still cant believe what he typed
the bias thing was, well its sort of like this, a man murders another person, the brother of the person denies his brother doing it despite everyone watching? catch my drift, i think its that bad
again not you doing this

anyway, besides that, can you honestly say you aren't bias? your posts in match day threads are pretty repetative and wummish. you cant be surprised that people react the way they do. yeah there are a lot of biased fans but you are one too.

The guy that does them is a regular on the caf and posts them after every United match. He's made it onto Sky news and that, so he's quite good

He does them all ted
- 6 (and a bit) things I noticed from the weekend
-
Arsenal 2-0 West Ham – With Cesc Fabregas back in action, Arsenal went about West Ham early on in the usual sexy football fashion. So sexy it was apparently that Denilson got a little carried away and followed his opener with some kind of bizarre simulated sex act celebration. This seemed to galvanize the ‘Ammers and Franco – looking like a badass Mexican mercenary in a John Woo film – missed a good chance to equalize before the alien Thomas Vermaelen harshly conceded a penalty at the end of the first half. The hosts survived however as Manuel Almunia saved Alessandro Diamanti’s spot kick by running towards him very fast, much to the obvious obliviousness of the officials. For much of the second half Arsenal countered the problem of Nicklas Bendtner not being nearly as good in real life as he is in his own head by playing Fabregas and Eboue up front on their own – or it certainly seemed that way at any rate. They finally killed off the game with a late penalty, for which Rob Green in the West Ham goal decided to try his own method of off putting goalkeeping tactics by standing quite noticeably further towards the left hand side of his goal. This, one would assume, would be to entice Fabregas to hit it to his right – which he did – but actually seemed to be some kind of confusing double bluff as Green dived towards his left anyway and Fabregas scored quite easily in roughly the center of the goal. It rained a lot and Pat Rice looked like an old lesbian.
Pompey 3-2 Hull – Over at the Fratton Park baths Pompey continued to be resilient in the face of obliteration by conspiring to out-want this match despite having absolutely nothing to live for anymore. With Phil Brown now free to haunt the tanning salons of East Riding, Hull had to rely on the grizzled features of Ian Dowie (which was nicest way I could think of to put that) for inspiration in his new capacity as Football Management Consultant. Quite who he’s supposed to be consulting on football management we aren’t sure, but it didn’t help much as the Tigers managed to let the lead slip twice against a side reduced to playing with Jobsite on their shirts, as a poignant reminder of where their careers post season most likely lie. After a ridiculously rubbish opening goal from Caleb Forlan – which hit about 4 people on it’s way in – Pompey drew level with an even more absurd strike (which isn’t a fitting word for it really) from Tommy Smith, which was scrambled into the net with all the delicacy of four Elephants play wrestling in a swimming pool. Hull took the lead again after a slick build up move involving referee Phil Dowd was eventually scuffed into the net by Forlan. Jamie O’Hara provided some much needed quality with a stunning free kick before Kanu prodded in the winner to spark quite beautiful celebrations from the Pompey faithful who were quite simply – and quite rightly – living in the moment. Carpe Diem my brothers, Carpe Diem!
Villa 2-2 Wolves – In one of those games that looks good in a highlights package but was actually complete dirge for the most part, Wolves managed to dent arch-rivals Villa’s challenge for fourth and could’ve won this game but for the cunning awareness of John Carew and the pesky idea of giving advantage to attackers in offside situations. After Villa had taken the lead, Jody Craddock equalized by diverting in a Ronald Zubar shot that was – somehow – going backwards before a scrappy James Milner own goal put the Wanderers ahead. A second dubiously onside strike from Carew completed proceedings but not before I’d taken a sharp disliking to Stewart Downing’s bright red boots. Coloured boots should be earned I’ve decided. Possibly on some kind of Karate belt system whereby players have to reach a certain level of goodness to attain them. The better they are, the more garish the colours they’re allowed to wear. Stewart Downing should be on light brown at the moment.
Wigan 1-0 Burnley – Possibly the two least glamorous clubs in the league managed to thoroughly live up to their status’ by playing out a shocking game where the most interesting thing for the majority was someone elbowing someone else in the face (which to be fair is probably the most interesting thing that happens in either Wigan or Burnley on any given night.) After 80 minutes of balls hitting off various peoples random body parts the tie finally came to life in the last 10 where upon it suddenly became end to end stuff – all be it in a bumbling, incompetent sort of a way – and Rodallega grabbed the winner in stoppage time.
Stoke 1-2 Spurs – Tottenham continue to avoid the usual Tottenham slip-ups and continue to make it harder for me to keep mentioning that every week without anyone noticing. Eidur Gudjohnsen scored his first Spurs goal with his shin before beautifully dummying for Niko Kranjcar to net the winner. Dean Whitehead was send off for not being as good as Luka Modric and Spurs finally found a method of dealing with Rory Delap’s long throws and an effective use for Peter Crouch all in one go by getting the striker to stand in the penalty box and head them away. The best part of the whole game however came when referee Mike Dean momentarily forgot he wasn’t on Strictly Come Dancing and theatrically awarded Stoke a penalty by pointing at the spot like a wizard waving an imaginary wand. Modric looks like an evil hamster.
Sunderland 3-1 Birmingham – With the Stadium of Light doing it’s best impression of the Riverside by being half empty for most of the season, the good Darren Bent showed up to give what fans were there a good day out. In a game where there was actually quite a lot of quality on display, Bent’s quick brace was pegged back by an Henry-esque goal from Cameron Jerome before Sunderland finally scored in the last minute rather than conceding in the last minute and Craig Gordon’s continued heroics were rewarded rather than thwarted as they had been against Man City last week.
Other Things I noticed;
Mikel Arteta moved the ball 7 yards forward for his free kick goal against Bolton. Chelsea and Blackburn seemed to be playing on a pitch from the 1970s. It was raining absolutely everywhere. Carlos Tevez is better than I thought he was, John Terry could start a fight with himself in an empty room – but considering most people would quite like to start a fight with John Terry, it’s not surprising he would too. El Hadji Diouf seems to have part of the touchline glued to his head and I still don’t understand that advert where Wayne Rooney is playing himself. Playing with your shirt off makes you faster? Is that it? What’s that all about?

He's brilliant this one had me in stitches
- 10 stupid things that exact in football
-
Many things grind my gears about football. Most of them are completely inane. Some of them don’t bother anyone else and I seem like a complete mad person for getting so worked up by them, but some things are universally baffling. These are but a few of them.
1. Automatic bookings for stripping off – The passion, excitement and euphoria of football can often come to a head in the event of scoring a goal. Such is the feeling – that even school yard players know – that it can, on occasion, encourage footballers to take their clothes off before they’ve even gotten to China White. The passion is the greatest thing about the sport. Those who don’t understand it lament it’s ability to churn out suicidaly dull 0-0 draws at Bolton on a breezy February afternoon, but they fail to grasp that the waiting is just the thing that makes it. We can sit in rain and sleet and snow and watch the most appalling rubbish, transfixed in anticipation, knowing that at any moment, a goal may be scored to light up our experience. The very lack of constant scoring is what makes the act of scoring so emotional, and when said emotion explodes it’s a joyous and wonderful thing. So if a player gets so worked up by it that he finds the act of keeping his clothes on impossible to abide by, then at no point should that ever – ever – be punishable by anything. Except maybe cold nipples.
2. Three Minutes of Injury time – I can’t pin point the exact moment 3 minutes of injury time became compulsory, but I’m going to take a complete guess and say it was around 1997. No match ends earlier than the 93rd minute anymore, so we might as well just play 93 minutes. Even a suicidally dull 0-0 draw at Bolton on a breezy February afternoon gets 3 minutes. Why? When you add up the amount of time the ball is actually not in play it comes to about 20 minutes, but we don’t play 20 minutes injury time because that would be absolutely ridiculous – unless one of the big four are losing of course (only joking big four fans!…sort of) – So lets just play 93 minutes. And if you want to add 4, just add 1 instead. Simples.
3. The Idea you need a few naughties to get a top atmosphere/it’s just part of football – No you don’t/ No it isn’t. I eff and blind as much as the next bloke at a match, but in a vague and non-specific way. The odd expletive repeated 20 times in a row isn’t going to hurt anyone – probably – but you don’t need to add a racial or homophobic slur to the end of it. You really don’t. Nor do you need to throw a coin, or a bottle (or in one Liverpool fan’s case – your phone) on to the pitch to “improve the atmosphere”. That isn’t part of football, that’s just part of being a mong.
4. Diving – Get up you expletive expletive + homophobic insult
5. Autobiographies by players who are still playing – Surely the point of an autobiography is to reflect on your life’s work with the wisdom you’ve gained over the course of it? It should be an opus, not a serial. Writing an autobiography at 25 isn’t writing an autobiography, it’s writing a diary. Furthermore, if you’re not even going to write it at all, merely talk to some other bloke about it for a bit and let him write it down, then why make it a book? You aren’t going to read it anyway are you? Why don’t you just release it on tape or something? “Things I’ve thought of so far by Wayne Rooney”, for example. I wouldn’t buy it, but someone would. At no point does anyone still playing the game need to write an Autobiography, or have a biography written for them. And you don’t need more than one either, it’s supposed to be about your life. You only get one of those.
6. Sepp Blatter – I have no idea why Sepp Blatter still exists in football.
7. The “new George Best” – Or the new Zinedine Zidane, or the new anyone. No, they aren’t that. Stop it. And being fast and mixed race doesn’t automatically make anyone comparable to Thierry Henry.
8. Shot sleeves and gloves – Beanie and a vest? Pants and duffle coat? No.
9. Wearing a suit to pundit on television – Why do you need to wear a suit to talk about football on television exactly? Are you going to get booked if you take it off?
10. Anyone who says there’s no romance in the FA Cup anymore – Didn’t Portsmouth win it 2008? Didn’t Cardiff get to the final? Didn’t Millwall get to the final a few years back? Didn’t Leeds knock out Man Utd away this year? Didn’t Barnsley knock out Liverpool at Anfield two years ago? Didn’t a million other things happen or weren’t you watching? This goes equally for anyone who says “football’s rubbish now, it was better in my day” – which it probably wasn’t, but you were certainly less of a tool – and “The English League is the least competitive” – when in fact only 9 teams have ever won La Liga in it’s entire history, and only 5 during the PL era or more than twice. Only 8 have ever won Seria A more than twice and only 5 since the PL era too. 19 English clubs have won the top tier more than twice however, so even if the PL era has only seen 4 winners, it’s still all rubbish, and actually more in line with the rest of Europe than it ever was.
