Has anyone actually seen the Rooney incident? The 5 Live commentary suggested that it was a misunderstanding - in which case I imagine the card will be appealed if it was a straight red, or was it two yellows?

Two yellows

[Liverpool]

Two yellows no appeal.

Ferguson should have listened to Rafa's helpful advice about the Respect campaign.

I think it was 2 yellows. And there's no way it was a misunderstanding. He simply threw the ball away out of frustration. He was seeing red all the way through.

LMAO!! Alex just hits the bar for Chelsea

[focusedonfootball]

I just had this sneeking hope that Ferguson would have them so fired that if wasn't going their way they might blow up. Just too good to be true.

Nope, it was two yellows - they cant appeal.

No misunderstanding either, he threw the ball at the ref in a show of petulance. Even if they deny he threw it at the ref, he still threw the ball away - which is a yellow card.

FT at Spurs, Chelsea lose

[Leyton388]

Spurs win

[lickedlollipop]

FT! Chelsky is down!

[erikolaf]

Chelsea loses 1-0. Liverpool has to win tomorrow.

[Ben_Itez]

Full time. Results have been brilliant for us today, HAVE to win tomorrow.

I meant more in terms of ferguson being able to calm them down and steady them mentally. Two weeks is a long time to gather his troops and sort them out.

Could have a negative effect to though

I hope so, but i cant see how it could get much worse for them. They're rocking at the moment, and they've now got time to consolidate and compose themselves.

The only good thing is that when we lose, i cant wait for the next game to rectify it - and footballers are the same. In their case, they'll be stewing on these two defeats for a fortnight.

Berbs left fulham with a cast on his leg and fergie has giggs doing the sky interview lol
