That's what happens when the Ref isn't wearing a red shirt
Going to eat that hat then?
Nothing to do with the Ref and everything to do with Fergie being a complete ****.

By nitpicking and killing the tempo.

Danny Welbeck comes on and literally does nothing, what a surprise, why take off Kagawa :/

United have been terrible all season now they finally got what they deserved, 2nd half performance was to little to late.
Man U fans look like they've lost it!
Haha. I was going to say that AVB got a little bit carried away.
How did we not score a third 
Absolutely deserved something out of that game but ultimately Fergie's first half team selection cost us, well done to Spurs defended well second half, rode their luck at times as well but they're probably due a result at OT

I don't really blame him to be honest, he's just accomplished what no Spurs manager had since 1989, pretty great win for them.
United didn't really deserve anything with the way they performed in the first half. What I don't understand is why we can't play two halves of good football? Why must we go behind before we start to really up the tempo?!

They're all coming out the wood work tonight
First time I've either been awake, or not had to be somewhere to be able to watch the game live rather than a few hours after.
I love games where both teams are a defensive shambles...
Great game and result for Spurs, how they didn't concede 2-3 more goals second half though I'll never know United battered them throughout and I couldn't believe when the ref waved away 2 United pens it's almost unheard of at OT.

When will Fergie stop randomly throwing Giggs back into the side just because the opposition is a generally speaking top 6 side. He was useless and Utd just didn't link up in the first half at all. Utd were awful in the first and by far the better team in the second. RVP was great in the second when given the actual ball and as I've said so many times when he plays a little deeper and gets on the ball he picks out great passes, his turn/pass for the 2nd goal was great.
Had the one pretty poor shot though, Rooney was offside so he couldn't pass to him. Rooney looked good for about 3 minutes after he came on then did basically nothing. Welbeck, tried a fancy flick in the middle of the box for no reason then did entirely nothing after that.
Spurs, really not sure why they got SOOO deep and refused to go forwards in the second half, they deserved to concede a third purely because they spent 99% of the second half asking for it.
Defoe was outstanding for their 3rd goal, dragged Ferdy out of position, held him off, turned him and a really fantastic pass for Bale.

76 extra pages of how bad Fergie is, who they didn't sign and general pessimism while they argue each other for most disillusioned fan 2012.
City won't win the league this year, the only threat to united is Chelsea and I'm not sure they will have enough this year to stop Manu taking it.
