    You know the one, about the PL not being won on penalties. Out of curiosity, does anyone have the penalties for and against figures for the PL sides this season?

    Somebody told me only 1 penalty awarded against Man Utd all season. Surely that can't be right :confused:

    Of course it can be right and it is but don't think for one second that there is any kind of different application of the rules for Man U than there is for other teams.

    It was the one against Carrick in the Chelsea game for the handball! Woulda been pretty cool to go the whole season not giving one away!

    And Collie how did Wigan ly down for them today?! They gave it a very good effort,Heskey had around 5 decent headers!

    Even if you had the stats you seek then you have to ask yourself "what would it mean anyway"? If Man U spend most of the game attacking or in possession then obviously they're gonna concede less penos.

    Exactly. They only conceded 22 goals in the league all season. How often would the opposition be in United's penalty box terrorising the defence for a penalty to be even given away?

    It's a different story in Europe when United are under more pressure. You will recall Roma were awarded a penalty which de Rossi missed (which should never have been given) but why let these things enter into the equation eh?

    It's a conspiracy I tells ya! :eek::eek::eek:

    are people having trouble reading. I said that it should not suggest that the refs applied the rules differently and the Mancs start jumping up and down too. seems the I'm a Man United ....can drive a tractor ditty is not too far off the mark.

    And a good point there from Pigman too.

    So that wasn't a sarcastic remark on your part?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    1 peno is good going.

    Yea that clearly was a very poorly veiled remark and even worse is the way you are trying to pretend like it was an honest observation minus sarcasm.

    You probably would have seen some nature of smiley if I was being sarcastic Nice Guy.

    Any apologies coming from any Mancs, I doubt it :rolleyes: <- Yes the ones that Collie said was gone.

    No need to get personal now. That doesn't look like a rolly-eyes thing?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,399 ✭✭✭✭Thanx 4 The Fish


    How is that getting personal, you have been getting personal, I have shown you were wrong again tonight. They are the rolly eyes, you just type : rolleyes : without the spaces, that's how I know it's them.

    How was I getting personal? You were being patronising....and now I'm remembering why I rarely visit the soccer forum. Oh and to show that I was wrong again would imply that you've done it before...enlighten me?

    Can I ask a question T4TF?

    If Liverpool today were in the same situation as Man U, won the league, Ref had a bad game, and United fans came on here and did nothing but whinge about how the Ref was terrible , what would you say ?


  • Posts: 14,379 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    No we wouldnt expect that cos whether u are prepared to admit it or not, your previous posts today and your general attitude towards United would suggest otherwise. (Im talking of course about u painting yourself in glory on the United thread tonight) Its cool that u hate united, I dont give a sh1t what u think of United tbh or your general opinions or frankly what anyone else thinks of United, everyone has an opinion and the right to express that opinion. Its also cool when PHB (the only other mod whose allegiance I know) doesnt like Liverpool and makes remarks but at least in his case he doesnt pretend like he's making honest assessments when he clearly isnt.


    Tbh I really hope that you've been drinkin all day and this is the end product of a day in the pub with your Pool mates where ya's all had a nice big chat about how much ya's hate United etc and now its materialising itself in the way in which u stirred up 4 pages of arguments in the United superthread. Dont the rules about "threadspoiling" state that u have to keep it to the matchday threads and not the superthreads- I clearly remember seeing that a few weeks back when, suprise suprise, you were on making anti-United remars and when called on it, either yourself or PSI said its fair game on the match threads, just that u have to cool it on the superthreads? Surely mods should behave the way the rest of the forum is supposed to, no?

    If United fans did what u did tonight in the Pool thread after Pool had won the league (I know how unrealistic this hypothetical situation is but sure just imagine, Im sure you're able to) you would probably ban them.

    What are you talking about Will. This thread was started by somebody else saying that United only gave away one penalty all season in the prem. That pen was against another one of the big 4, and I said that there was no conspiracy. I assume that this is not what you are referring to on this thread ? I do not think that your post has much relevance on this thread about something entirely different TBH but please feel free to show me the error of my ways.

    Wrong again Neil, don't let it get you down.

    Dunno nipple but I can remember two off the top of my head, actually make that three.

    How many was there ?

    I have no idea, but there's lots of stattos here and I thought somebody would know. What I didn't think was that every Manc in the forum would start acting all defensive, circling the wagons and such. Is there even a list showing how many goals scored were penos? Like this one for Serie A for example

    Trezeguet Juventus 19 (1 pen)
    Del Piero Juventus 19 (2)
    Borriello Genoa 19 (5)
    Di Natale Udinese 17 (2)
    Mutu Fiorentina 17 (6)
    Amauri Palermo 15 (2)
    Kaka Milan 15 (6)
    Ibrahimovic Inter 15 (8)
    Pandev Lazio 14 (1)
    Totti Roma 14 (3)
    Cruz Inter 13 (1)
    Rocchi Lazio 13 (3)
    Quagliarella Udinese 12
    Bellucci Sampdoria 12 (2)
    Doni Atalanta 12 (4

    Fair enough then T4TF I will give it more meaning in its own thread.


  • Posts: 14,379 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    Dont worry, nothing is getting me down today, our season isnt over, so Im both overjoyed and excited! :pac::pac::pac::pac:
