Weymouth players were literally on strike, so I think the reserves did well to restrict it to nine. They've not been paid for 7 weeks.

I'd go on strike if I hadn't been paid for 7 weeks.

United lose their record. Piggy/Rio at fault for the goal really.

1337 minutes the record is set at.

Van der Sar doesn't lose his though

Can't really. City didn't get in trouble when they lost 8-1 last season.

Watching the incidents from the United game on match of the day, 2 observations.

1 - United were lucky to get away with a win - Ronaldo should have arguably have been sent off and Rovers should have had a penalty.

2 - Alan 'Hello, I'm a twat' Shearer's shirts get worse.

Jeez.

That penalty decision against Glen Johnson, was harsh.

That dive was bad even by Ronaldo's standards. This is why I really don't like the guy, yes he might be one of the best footballers in the world but he is also a dirty little cheat and nobody likes them.

2 points ignored by Auntie beeb though.

1. Who is to say had ronaldo got the yellow he would have done the dive?
2. United had a perfectly good goal chalked off. And before anyone mentions, there was a foul right near the corner flag, but for some reason the ref gives a corner. It should have been our ball anyway.
