New season, same scum

Of course they should. But it's Man Utd. So they wont.

Yeah, but there are one set of rules for them and one set for everyone else

[Ben_Itez]

Manchester United goalkeeper Ben Foster has been withdrawn from the England squad that faces Holland on Wednesday night, with a 'minor injury'. Joe Hart will be drafted in to replace him.

Un-****ing-believable. Did they actually state what the injury is?

When are these cheating cunts gonna be brought into line FFS? How and why are they allowed to get away with this bull****? All the ****ing time?

Perhaps when Ferguson retires.

****ing hell - it does two things for united - keeps him safe with the injury to van der sar, and also gets him away from the spotlight and any 'pressure' following his horrendous display yesterday

Good point. I wonder if Foster had any choice in the matter? You'd think he'd want to play to try and make the World Cup squad.

Typical United.

Those friendlies are a farce anyway.

Yes they are but that's not the point. Ferguson shows nothing but contempt for the powers that be.

Because Fergie knows his way around those things whilst we simply play 'by the book' and don't want to be seen as cheaters.

He doesnt know his way round anything he just plays by his own rules and the FA are too spineless to stand up to him. We have respect for the game.

So what? It's a ****ty, pointless friendly anyway and why should United care about England?

They shouldnt have to care but they are obliged to release their players whether it's a minor inconvenience or not.

Didnt Giggs finish with about 50 caps for Wales? Played in his first friendly in the last year of his internatonal career, strange for someone who was SO passionate about playing for his country. He should have had about 150 caps.

The bloke from the FA's statement on sky sports says he was sent back to Manchester so presumably he reported,was assessed and got sent back.

At least I hope thats what happened the cheating cunts

[Matt]

Sounds like Fergie's stuck his finger up to the FA again as a response to that decision not going Utd's way in the Shield.

Those friendlies are a farce anyway.

who the hell thought itd be a good idea to play friendlies and/or qualifiers at this stage of the summer?
