I'm a Man Utd fan and was at Old Trafford for my debut yesterday. :D

Pretty poor game to be honest. Both teams terrible going forward, struggling to create anything.

I have watched the penalty decision on replay a few times and my conclusion is I still don't know if there was contact or not. I don't know how anyone can call definite penalty.

I think the red card was a red card going on the rules but to be honest I think the rules are a bit harsh. I think a booking would have been okay for that tackle.

In which case a red would be fair if he caught him square. But he got to the ball first.

Matters not.

His feet left the floor and he was going at some speed into a 2 footed tackle.

1. You can't do that.

2. He should know better.

Nuff said really to all the 'Pool fans crowing it was a dive


All that says is, we have a player who over exaggerates contact and that berbatov still dived, completely seperate incidents and each should be assessed on individual merit, completely pointless arguement.
