No game surely cause some lad took one of the corner flags away with him...

Thought Dougal Maguire's job was to watch the corner flags.

The FA have released a statement saying they will be imposing penalties on United.
Bruno Fernandes has replied saying he'll take them.

For someone who doesn't post on the Utd thread he's loving it today.

Have to agree Roy Keane, a serious message from the United supporters that will be headlines all over the world.

Regardless of league positions Man United v Liverpool is the biggest game in the Premier league and its cancelled because supporters have enough of these owners.

3 points should be awarded to Liverpool and the league goes to City.

Somewhat ironic that Liverpool were saved from a likely tanking today by manutd fans. On the plus side the rearranged fixture might give united the opportunity to put the final nail in their coffin as regards champs league qualification

Father Jack has woken!

Good finish but poor defending by Liverpool.

Gary Neville spoke extremely well again today. He has played this very well the last couple of weeks and has got the feelings of the fans bang on.

Honest question - why are the owners hated? Forget about the ESL crap, from the outside it seems like Utd have more money to spend than they ever did. What am I missing?

How is that a problem? Barca are 1.2b in debt. Madrid near 1b. Is that not how this works with fellas with that amount of money?

How is it affecting anything as a fan and in terms of transfer funds or how the team plays? Still, honest questions.

They created the debt by buying it with a loan and transferred the debt of that loan to the club.

They haven't spent any of their own money and have taken 2 billion from the club, all transfer money comes from club revenue.

No money spent on Old Trafford in the last 15 years and poor recruitment is down mostly to them because they have their own business men and buddies over transfers than football men.

ESL was the final straw for many supporters and it shows what these owners are really about and the Glazers was front runners in trying to get that franchise competition up and running.
