Ronaldo, one of the biggest divers in the game has gone down too easily a couple of times today, and Arshavin gets yellowed for a foul on Carrick when there was clearly no contact.
Old Trafford response " same old Arsenal, always cheating"

LOL..........The UK's version of a crows crowd.

Another shit year with those pricks winning the title.

Fingers crossed Liverpool can pick up Tevez and a good winger or two (NOT Aaron Lennon) and take it from them next year.

Well the Mancs win the title by drawing 0-0 with Arsenal.
They've had some superb runs this season, highlighted by the fact that they had 2 teams up their clacker since February and have won 18 of the last 20 games played in the EPL.
18 of 20 is a brilliant effort at the best of times but when you've got the pressure of a chasing pack winning as well it's a great effort by Man Utd. :oops:

I can gladly say that Liverpool gave them a good run for the title but too many draws at home and having Torres fit for 75% ? of the campaign hurt as the replacements aren't as good as the ones available to Rudolph.

funny how the spats between arsene and fergie have calmed for the past few years. seemed to be great friends at the end with the hand shakes etc. And fergies interview before the game showed things have calmed between them. Maybe because Arsenal havent been there for a few years now. All the talk was about Liverpool after the match .

Champions!

Very nervous end to the match but we got the all important point in the end. We did not do it easy, a very tough season in the EPL this year and with Liverpool breathing down our necks we were always under pressure. Really stepped up towards the end of the season and started to play some decent football.

Now on to the Champs League Final and a chance to do the EPL & UCL double two years running.

If DA want's a whinge then that's his perogative.

At least he's not a glory hunting, I've never been to Manchester, I follow two teams in England, jumped on the 'Man U' bandwagon when they started winning things numpty like some around RM...

Wow you really are a sooky <edit> aren't ya? You hardly ever post on here, when you do it is to have a crack at me! What a keyboard hero.

You go for Liverpool don't ya? So don't you dare call me a bandwagoner considering you also go for a big club <edit>.

Also I HAVE been to Manchester (shock, horror) and you should probably go back to school little one as Cardiff is not in England. ;)

Suck it up princess. United are now equal with Liverpool. I know you are struggling to cope with that and it makes this kind of victory even sweeter.

Also I find it funny you have a crack at me for supporting two clubs, but DA supports two as well?

I don't care if DA whinges, I will tell him to shut up if I please but at least he posts on here mate. You only post on this board to have a crack at me and I find it sweet that you care that much about me. :)

Ouch, a bit touchy there RM?

Yes, I'll admit I don't post often and my last couple of contributions have been veiled cracks at you, but so what? I choose to post sparingly and not to have a bleat for the sake of it.

As far as your response goes, a couple of points that need clearing up;

Yes I happen to follow a 'big club', but I had no choice in the matter really due to family influence and just for the record, I am well aware that Liverpool have their fair share of glory hunters that jumped on in the 80's when they were winning everything much like United are at present and I am just as critical of that.

On Cardiff not being in England, OK so you got me on a technicality but last time I checked, Cardiff play in England & not in the Welsh Premier.....

As for referring to DA supporting two clubs, I think you'll find his being partial to Burnley is out of support for JTC, which is great. I too hope Burnley get promoted, I may even enthusiastically congratulate JTC if they get over Sheff Utd, it doesn't mean I support them.

All in all mate you've bitten back hard with 'sooky, 'princess', etc. so I would suggest a raw nerve has been hit.

I am greatly disappointed that we couldn't win it this year, as I firmly believe it was there for the taking, but I can tell you one thing for certain, MU could win the next ten Premier League titles and I still wouldn't swap United for Liverpool for anything in the world.

Come on fella's calm down, this isn't the Regionals board you know ;)

Like it or not Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal or Chavski. Man U are the champions this year and they have done over the season, not on one game and not on the back of a ref's decision.

Personally, i'm not a fan of Man U but you have to tip your hat to them. The CDFC of the EPL. Pools chance will come again, as will all the other top 3.

All I can say RM is watch out for the Clarets next season, we will be your main threat for the title :lol: . I wish I hadn't said that now :(
