    Is it really that exciting being a Man Utd fan? You've chosen to support a team who are nearly guaranteed to win something big every year...

    I can hear all the cheers out my window, but I feel a bit, what did you expect? You're a Man Utd fan...

    /Not a bitter Chelsea fan


    Yes it is that ****ing exciting. Do you think we all started supporting them in the last 15 years!!!

    It was Liverpool rammed down my throat when I was growing up and United were winning **** all, so I think we are allowed to savour EVERY victory if thats ok with you.



    Yippppeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D

    Well done, fully deserved etc etc. Still lost twice to a team beaten 8-1 by Boro though :p

    Well done United, cant take it away from them, they were the best team by a distance all season. However, im sure after todays performance the jerseys with "Bennett - 12" on the back will be flying off the shelves lol:D

    Just happened to walk into a pub at the moment they were showing the replay of Ferdinand's hand ball. I was laughing thinking great chance for Wigan to go 1 up. Then, for some bizarre reason they kept playing on. I have never seen a more blatantly obvious hand-to-ball 100% penalty in all my life. Then Rooney does a 9.9 impression of Ronaldo and gets a penalty! Then Scholes wasn't sent off. Well done Bennett. Great game today. I know someone said Pique didn't get a medal. I just hope Bennett did!

    Bitter much? They won the title deservedly over 38 games and nine months, not ninety minutes.

    If you'd taken your blinkers off you'd also have notices Scholes being brought down for a blatant peno that wasn't given. Life must suck for you, being angry at things like this.

    Hahaha so many bitters around.

    CHAMPIONS!!!!!!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,643 ✭✭✭✭Mr.Nice Guy


    Delighted about the win and really loving the bitter rants from certain begrudgers.

    "Oh boo hoo the referee! Wigan will throw the game! Fergie might use voodoo magic!"

    The table says it all. Champions!

    And when punters were saying United's dominance of English football was over, what did we do? Back to back titles me thinks. Get in. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,677 ✭✭✭staker


    well done


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,688 ✭✭✭kerash


    Yay for United, my grandad is a happy man today:)
    Also a mention for Fulham, well done to them.

    MUTV is free to air at the moment and will be for the evening.

    Player awards dinner is on at 7.45pm:)


    Edit: And they are showing highlights of the 99 Champions league final at the moment!

    In realtime it looked a stonewall peno tbh.

    Anyway Scholes was sliced down 2nd half and he got nowt so these things balance themselves out, isnt that what they say ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,604 ✭✭✭herbieflowers


    not that it particularly matters, seeing as the game is over and the title is done and dusted

    Doubt it, bout 2 people watch serie A every week on boards


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,430 ✭✭✭Sizzler


    Great win in the end, league table doesnt lie :)

    Delighted that Bolton equalised so we didnt have to hear Grant say that it was sooooo close and it was only seperated on goal diff :rolleyes:

    Hats off to the gooners as well it has to be said, they ended up 4 pts off Utd and 2 pts off Chelsea, not bad at all considering Utd took 4 pts off them this season and they had so many draws over the last few months (Boro/Wigan/ Pool/Birmingham etc.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,046 ✭✭✭eZe^


    Fairplay lads, best team in Europe this season no doubt.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,111 ✭✭✭✭RasTa


    lol at the bitter Pool fans blaming Bennett. Scholes commited two fouls all game, the ref decided to give him one last chance. Scholes himself had a stone-wall peno turned down when Bramble slid in. Anyway I don't remember Edwin making any saves during the whole match.

    we won it ten times
    not on goal difference
    we won it 10 times!

    That is an interesting point. I got several texts from friends of mine who are United fans stating, "CHAMPIONS!!!!!". Like they needed to tell me.

    Meh.

    - Arsenal fan BTW

    a bitter arsenal fan by the sounds of it, if the tables were turned you would have done the same thing man!!

    go on utd!! well deserved. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,496 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Yeah, what's the point of dupporting a winning team if you can't rub your mates' noses in it :p

    Weren't Chelsea still in the race as of this morning? Doesn't sound like a distance tbh. Lady Luck was smiling on Utd today. How Bennett didn't give the first peno shout I'll never know. If Bennett never refereed another Utd match again, at least I could take something out of today. :o
