Classic old 606 article

Still pretty funny - didn't see it the first time round. Bit of light relief from all the potential signing rumours.

If you can't read it TD - I'll post the whole thing.

I couldn't stop laughing! my son said "what's so funny daddy! let me see!!!"

Can't read it Wensdi - how about the full transcript? please!

Some of the names are outdated but it still stands.

Here we go.

Manchester United's march towards the 2008 Premiership title continued on Sunday with a stunning display at OT. The Super Reds went ahead just before the kick-off when Giggs was sent away down the left wing.

His cross was handled on the half way line by a CFC defender and a penalty was awarded for this cynical foul. Tevez stepped up to slot the ball home for MU's 43rd penalty of the season.

The 15th minute saw the Super-Smashing Reds go two up after Carvalho was penalised for coughing just outside the area. Cristiano Ronaldo's resultant free kick was slightly miss-hit, but even if the keeper was not being pinned to the floor by Rooney, he would not have saved it. 2-0.

The 21st minute saw more trouble for CFC when JO Mikel was sent-off for enquiring about the referee's Man United shirt. However two minutes after the interval CFC struck back after an amazing piece of good luck. The ref's assistant could only parry Drogbas' shot and Lampard thumped the ball home. Confusion reigned for 10 minutes as the entire M.U squad surrounded the referee, arguing that the ref's assistant had been fouled 15 mins earlier. The referee grudgingly had to give the goal even though he racked his brain for a reason to disallow it.

Fortunately, things settled down again as Paul Scholes took a long-range shot, which deflected off the corner flag but had clearly crossed the line, 3-1.

Just after the restart, un-sportsmanlike Shevchenko was dismissed for making ridiculous claims for a penalty after Rooney had nearly decapitated Drogba. The referee and his assistant missed the incident as they were both asking Giggs for his autograph, but replays showed that Rooney's flying kung-fu kick, followed by a forearm smash were clearly unintentional.


Ten minutes later Ferguson took off Tevez and replaced him with Saha, Nani and Anderson. Man United's 4th came shortly after. Drogba was caught offside just outside the CFC penalty area and Nani's free-kick thundered in after deflecting off the underside of the flood lights.

United kept the pressure on until the bitter end. In the 98th minute Carvalho conceded a free kick just outside his own area for blatantly glancing at the ref. Giggs stepped up and proceeded to chip the ball right into the ref's path and he made no mistake from 10 yards.

Giggs slotted home 6th from the penalty spot after A.Cole went down with a broken leg. Fortunately Rooney was nearby when it happened and, after running 50 yards, he was able to bring the incident to the ref's attention. Unfazed by Cole's cynical tactics, protruding bone and spraying blood, the referee sent him off for diving (and time wasting)and awarded United the pen. Giggs cheekily chipped the ball over the keeper and the crossbar, but the ref decided that it was a goal, because based on past records, Giggs rarely missed.

When the final whistle went after 33 minutes of injury time, CFC traipsed off with their heads low. Beaten by undoubtedly the greatest United outfit ever. 6-1...
