    I'd be cautious of Robbie he likes a wind up every now and then, especially on Twitter.

    BBC have jumped on the bandwagon too and put his comments up. You'd have thought they'd have checked with him to see if he was just a little tipsy or something!

    In fairness he has said himself in the tweet its just speculation. Lineker did a similar thing last year saying RVP wasn't with the United team before the United Arsenal game.

    RVP of course played and scored two I think it was, he got at least one anyway. Hopefully Rooney does the same.

    Haha tipsy is one thing, but I know Robbie through work and he's always giving his phone to other people to Tweet. The writing style of his last few Tweets looks different to normal so this could easily be the case. That being said it doesn't mean the info isn't correct! Hopefully Rooney plays, my bench is rubbish.

    I seem to remember the RVP thing being some what true he travelled separately for some reason. His use of commas is all over the place could well be he has had an early start (or possibly not finished up last night yet!)

    Yeh it does look different from normal could well be he is drunk or it is someone else!!

    Tweet or text him there if you know him and end this idle speculation so.

    I like Savage, but he's one pundit I certainly wouldn't be relying on for inside information.

    No Morrison is not a good start, that means Bannan is my only active substitute. I've gone with Rooney as captain and could do with Negredo starting too but I think that's unlikely.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,700 ✭✭✭Danger781


    No morrison means i only have two defenders as subs.. Evans and Ward :(

    He was a United player at one point and I wouldn't be surprised if he knew some of Uniteds older player, like Ferdinand & Giggs, pretty well who he could have been talking to this morning.

    I think Lineker tweeted later that day that it was just a wind up.

    A few early season teams that haven't changed since GW3 are flying in the Cup!

    The Savage tweet is getting quite a lot of coverage online, I suspect there might be something to it

    Also could be to do with the mass lack of interest in the early game of the day

    Yeh its a superb wind up from someone everyone knows might know something but probably doesn't!

    Does anyone have any interest in this game?

    tomkins off demel on

    Did he have another sulk because someone didn't know who he was again?

    A guy I'm facing in my cash H2H league has Berahino as first sub, so hoping for a blank from him. Would like to see West Ham's clean sheet gone as there's a few around with Jussi or West Ham defenders

    Oh and my season long untouchable team has Anelka :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    groin

    Figured the sulk was an unlikely reason.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    "If RVP has travelled he will now surely have to start as it looks like Rooney is out !!! Let's wait until team news !!" Savage back for more!

    Totally forgot about that team - think I have Hazard as captain. Will have to look over some of the teams to see if anyone took a punt on Suarez! Pretty sure I have Bony and RVW...

    Lad supposedly in the know about West Ham said on FFS the other day that Ravel was in a training ground bust up with own players and has fell out with manager. How true that is I don't know. He called his initial absence before teamsheets were out.

    Might have something to do with this.
