NEWTON HEATH 0 - 1 WHAM And no doubt Taggart wilL moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan and moan about Di Canny Lads goal.......

It has to be said that the referee and linesman did a great job in realising that he was on line and not ahead of it.......Barthez will get absolutely SLAUGHTERED for his part in their goal.......another cast iron example of the rule ALWAYS play to the whistle he just stopped and stood there daring di Canio to go for it, he did and Barthez was WRONG and was WRONG BIG TIME

Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Actually, I thought Barthez knew exactly what he was doing - a bit of trying to persuade the orificials (I play for ManUre so I must be right) and kidology against PdC. Had it been anybody else but the nice Italian, it might have worked. Shame, really - not!

I think the Heath supporters at Sporting Life have had coronaries. Still no updates beyond saying the game had entered stoppage time. They did manage to put up the headling "Hammer Blow for United"(obviously pre-written assuming WHam was going out) before keeling over. Can't wait for the EPL show and the glorious highlight this afternoon.

Gills pull one back.....1-3 now.

I've got a vested interest in this match.....other than hoping that Chewsee get run the around and knackered for Wednesday night, the only reason I am at work today is because one of my oppo's is a Gillingham supporter and she wanted to go to the game.......oh dear, a wasted day's holiday, the cost of a ticket and they get knocked out.....poor old Jackie

You're pleased about that then ITK? :-)

Great result - I only saw the goal and I agree with Screach about Barthez - I reckon that was kidology - very clever too in a cheating sort of way. I'm pleased Di Canio wasn't phased by it.

Le Beef and Morris stretchered off; Le Beef after badly fouling someone - tosser. Gronkaer (sp?) & Gudjohnsen won it for Chewsee, whose defence in the 2nd half was virtually non-existent.
We must have a chance of taking them on Wednesday on this showing.

-- Anonymous, January 28, 2001

Le Beef fouling someone? Strike me down with a feather. The pavement I could have expected, but another player? OK, if you say so ;-)

Gronkjaer looked good. Better put Griff on him - Wogsie would get skinned. Le Saux gave them width down the left when he came on. Let's hope Nobby can keep him pinned back (assuming he plays).

But I agree - eminently beatable. But in Lahndaan???

-- Anonymous, January 28, 2001

Great result, you do not get the overall picture off the ball but I felt Michael "Geordie" Carrick was excellent, won the ball ,played the sinmple passes (2 wasted in 90 mins), had 2 dabs at goal with left peg, okay Joe Cole had a good 2nd half but SGE would be well pleased with Carrick I guess. Not being one to stir anything up , but apart from hitting a good long ball, good crosser what excactly does Beckham bring to Man u , pace average, dribbling skills, *see Paulo and Canute, temperment suspect, for what he contributes to the team, give me a month with Jonty Wilkinson and he could do the same for less dosh.

-- Anonymous, January 28, 2001

Did you realise that since SGE came over from Lazio, he has been to two games in the Premier Leage and one in the FA Cup and so far he has seen ONE GOAl and that was scored by and Italian!

-- Anonymous, January 28, 2001

Got to agree buff - Carrick looks a real diamond. He always seems to have time - the sign of a good player, especially in the heat of Premiership battles.

Regarding SGE, I was wondering the same - which players will have impressed him? For WHU, after Carrick I thought Cole was just OK - he tends to over-elaborate a little for me, and certainly is not yet ready for the full England squad. In passing, I thought the two veterans Stu Pierce and Winterburn were terrific.

For manure? Sheringham and Butt were useless. Cole was naturally a little ring-rusty. Gary Neville did OK but no more, as did Beckham - however, I agree with your assessment. For a supposed world-class player, Becks never dominates a game, and when the going gets tough, like today, he either becomes petulant or just disappears - over-rated methinks.

Overall, SGE may have enjoyed the game, but I doubt he got much encouragement from it - apart from Carrick's promising performance.

Great game to watch. Loved the way DeCanio took the goal! I see Taggart is now whinging about the state of the pitch and the ref *only* allowing 4 mins extra time - lol!

Clarky, re Carrick , I was so excited that I had acess tonight that I made a hash of my assessment of the lad, meant to say it but you at least covered it for me, yep in the cup tie atmos he like all good players had time, made space and did the simple things well.

Was it Drury commentating because he is such a Manc that it was great to hear him squirm. Along with Fat Ron wriggling in his seat this was a very enjoyable listen!

Did you hear the way they enthused about Gigg's double drag back turn? Lua-Lua did the same against Leeds!! Hilarious.

Good for you Gav...I like a man who knows who the true enemy are :-) At least yer not part of the Radio five "the nation rejoices", or Chis Evans on Virgin radio's "phone in and remind all United fans of the score" etc etc etc. It's cringeworthy.

BTW...looks like Sunderland may have a good chance....sorry :-)

Was Chris Evans openly taking the piss out of the Manure fans then? I thought he was/is one of the biggest plastic fans ever, and only recently surpassed by first Zoe Ball and then that unfunny tw#t that reads the sports news on Radio One and thinks he's some kind of celebrity.

AAwwwwhhhhh, Poor little ugly, up his own arse, doesn't know where kitchen utensils are kept in his own home, had a piss poor performance in front of Sven Goran Nokia 5110, never mind, the Imperial Lord Ferg will back you up!

MANCHESTER UNITED defender Gary Neville could face a disciplinary charge after being reported to the Football Association following The Red Devils` defeat to West Ham United in the FA Cup fourth round. The 25-year-old defender is alleged to have abused an assistant referee following the 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford, which came courtesy of Paolo di Canio's dramatic late goal.

Neville may now face a misconduct charge from the FA after it emerged referee Paul Durkin will be including the incident in his match report.

"We are still to receive a match report from the official," an FA spokesman said.

"But we have had verbal confirmation from the referee that there was an incident involving Gary Neville at the end of the game.

"This did not result in a sending off. However, he is reporting the incident."

Good socks gradually wear thin and get holes in them, you tend to cling onto them because you have great memories, when in reality you should be moving on and living in today's socks.

Go out and buy some new socks but make sure they are not French as they inexpicably make you stand with your arm in the air and sooner or later your colleagues will start to berate officials.

Some of Radio 5's limericks from yesterday......I bet Alan Green didn't do any of these?!!

Eamonn Cannon: Of Barthez, United are proud And shout out his name, long and loud But with Paolo approaching He forgot all his coaching And waved to his fans in the crowd

The Manchester keeper is Fab And the games that he plays never drab But as Paolo broke through He hadn't a clue As he seemed to be hailing a cab

Tim in Berkshire: When Paolo di Canio's through What does the French keeper do? Instead of a save It's a sort of a wave Was he asking to go to the loo??

Fergus Sweeney: Raise a glass to di Canio How he scored I don't know In United's armour he saw a chink Fabien Barthez - you're the weakest link

Andy Finkle from London: When Paolo scored with such skill He gave the whole nation a thrill Man U were upset when the ball hit the net So next year they can go to Brazil

Fred: There was a goalkeeper from France Who stood still as if in a trance The Italian stallion, complete with medallion Looked up, laughed, and took his chance
