    We have been linked with Porto winger James Rodriguez, who has also stated his interest in joining, naturally.

    And the team beat Everton to reach the final of the Dallas Cup yesterday, Lingaard got the only goal of the game and now United will play Brazilian side Coritiba in the final.

    Was it not 2-0?

    Also u17's just lost to ajax in the ageon future cup. Unlucky to do so, ajax got one fast break and punished them.

    You see now you're bringing in the "is it a cake or a biscuit" argument. We do not have the time nor the resources to tackle such an question.

    Biscuits go soft when stale and cakes go hard when stale...

    Think their a biscuit.

    That contradicts your own logic. Jaffa cakes go hard when stale thus they're a cake.

    Jaffa Cakes are a hybrid. Lets just call them a biscake.

    I've recently discovered these and they are currently top of my biscuit list

    The local shop has em on special offer - only 1Eur for a pack :)

    Thankfully other people do though. There was a court case a few years ago between McVities and HM Customs and Excise who were trying to tax them as a luxury item, cakes are `food' and zero rated, while biscuits are `luxury items', and attract 17.5% tax.

    The matter was settled with this test: a cake starts off soft and goes hard when it is stale, but a biscuit starts off hard and goes soft when stale. Jaffa Cakes harden when stale and as a result McVities won the case.

    Ferdinand has started 10 out of the last 11 games and has already played more times this season than he did last. It's highly presumptuous of you to say he wouldn't play the majority of our games next season if he was still here. He might. I'd be forecasting him to be able to play 60-70% of games at best anyway, Vidic maybe 80-90% of games. That wouldn't leave a lot of game time for our 3 young promising centre backs if that were to happen, would it?

    And iirc SAF said he won't be rotating as much next season because of what happened in the CL this season.

    I think it would be highly optimistic of you to say Ferdinand will play 23 - 27 league games next season. While I would like to see it happening for De Gea as he has greatly taken advantage of a consistent back line, I just can't see it happening.

    So let it be written, so let it be done. *Bows to Jimmy*
