Another day, another game. I'm debating whether it not to go to Huddersfield tonight.

It turned out to be a lump of metal.
The under 21's game against Leeds has been called off.

Better safe than sorry 
United currently being robbed at Old Trafford... sounds odd as it's usually the other way round.
I think they'll claw it back.
Nah, no chance. 
At 85 mins we were 1-0 up. Huddersfield scored in the 86th and 90th minute.
I know, it's all moaning at the ref, but honestly (Nani I think it was) was an idiot to go that high for the ball, irrespective of whether he was aware of the other player or not!

On the other hand, you see that kind of tackle go on time and time again in the Premier League and if it does get punished its a yellow and not a straight red. It just ruined the game as a spectacle.

Could be seen both ways I guess:-
It's a Yellow Card offence and last night's ref was harsh
-OR-
It's a Red Card offence really and the Premier League refs are a bit namby-pamby!
For the record, I think it was a Red Card offence.

It was a Red Nose offence.
And that's just about where Utd are in Europe just now.
Doesn't say much for the best league in the universe.
Distributed between the two Manchester clubs then we would have two teams in the same boat as Surreal Madrid and Barcelona.
Our league and the German league are far superior.
Nah.
It was all stretching for the ball last night as usual.
Maybe so. We still have the best Leagues. They are just better at playing games in the CL.
Something appears to be happening with Rooney.
It's the wrath innit.
Still..a passenger after you call the shots.

This is so cryptic I have to ask what you mean. I watched the game and saw a slightly above average player (Rooney) when compared to Ronaldo, or whatever his name is. Do you mean Rooney is off his game now? Explain please.

He ain't 200k's worth.
An astrologer would say his star's on the wayne
Absolutely delighted to see all the premier league sides out of the champions league so early. They are so boring to watch! They are like a cancer of that competition and now it's been cured for this year we should have a pretty decent tournament ahead of us.

Little known Xochi fact. When I was being prepped for secondary school I was tested by the nuns at the Catholic school in Cambridge. They asked me to read the words 'wax and wane' about the moon. I hadn't a flying what it meant when they asked me! Thankfully my parents realised I was more suited to the grammar school!
@judith There are strong rumours (again) that Rooney is on his way elsewhere. He apparently is upset that he wasn't chosen for the game.
@crunchy The European competition is a cancer on our League.

Oooo! Where?!
And who would have him? Isn't he getting a bit past his sell-by date now?
I'm listening to R5 and they reckon it's on the back page of tomorrow 's scratter sheets.
I think, but for his generous salary, my team would love him.
All reports are leading to the new found wealth at Hamilton Academical.
There's a team without rhyme nor reason.
Latest..... Rumours suggest that Rooney will sign for the novelty team PSG.
Aww. Coleen will be snookered by the blue.
Beats the black in Moscow.

Wow! Those French clubs! Come over 'ere and steal all our footie players!
