Man Utd Thread:

[Square Ball]

United fans appeared to charge the police and the police went in. It got pretty vicious. We're about 80 yards away but it seems to have quietened down now. We've just heard a loud crash and there is smoke over there. It is very, very nasty inside this ground now. I don't know if the Roma fans started this but they are happy now as it is between the police and the United fans."

2031: The half-time whistle has gone at the Stadio Olimpico with United 1-0 down. Even more worryingly there appears to be major trouble in the stands with police having to intervene. It seems objects were thrown from the United section and the police have gone in to sort it out.

absolutly pathetic

Apparently all the Roma fans were celebrating their goal by running up to the plastic barrier dividing the fans and the Man U fans charged at them only for the Italian police to intervene with some hefty baton work.

good goal so

2-1 away defeat is not a disaster, Scholes red card may prove to be one. I wonder what the authorities will do with italian football after the violence?

[Redgreenery]

Full Time Roma 2-1 Utd.
Utd dealt ok in the second half after the loss of Scholes, Rooney scoring a top class goal! 6 mins later Roma retook the lead. Well it's a better result than a 1-0 defeat. The only good thing outta this game is that we have an away goal and Rooney scored it which should up his confidence.
Utd could pull this off at old Trafford!

[An Fear Rua]

given the circumstances, that resuly will more than do. Utd were poor, Roma may have missed their chance...

oh and by thge way the football wont get a mention in the next few days, just the batons.

[Redgreenery]

Yeah Roma have missed their chance, would think Utd will take it at Old Trafford.
Things didnt turn out as bad as I thought they would at Half time.

[An Fear Rua]

However , Utd are still shite in Europe.....

[Redgreenery]

Yeah away games in Europe are disasterous!

What about the w**ker United fans? Helping the pensioners across the road again were they?
