Geordie mate of mine just posted this on his FB

Bye bye liverpool. King Kenny? Don't make of laugh. Remember his spell at the Toon? Relegation me thinks

I replied

2nd place, beating Barca in the CL and 2 FA Cup Finals? Yeah, you've been real challengers since he was sacked.

****ing idiot.

Howard Webb. Manchester Uniteds most consistent asset down the years. CUNT!

Tough game this, I hope we can scrape a draw.

Refs done us big time.

Seriously how many ****ing times can Howard Webb MBE, get away with blatantly giving decisions to the mancs, its a ****ing piss take. I just think its incredible how this has gone unnoticed.

As for the game i though United have been ****e, soft peno, blatant dive, thought nando was isolated from teh start. The Gerrard tackle was a yellow, not a great tackle for sure it was silly, but Webb could have easily gave a yellow, considering Rafael got nothing for his challenge just beforehand.

With our bench being so weak too its such an uphill struggle. Merieles has been very poor, he has great responsibility now to grab the game by the scruff of the neck but he has been timid to say the least. Everything that could go wrong has gone wrong. Still only 1-0 down but its an arduous task.

We're not out of this yet.

Webb's trying his utmost to make this even more difficult, but I'm still optimistic. The sending off might galvanise the team - come on!

there's nothing like australia.

I couldn't be happier. My nails are bitten to bits, I'm on my 3rd glass of red and just had a bust up with the missus over screaming at the telly and using bad language in front of the kids. Normal service is resumed. Thanks Kenny!!

We'd best all stand still then.

Too often we get shafted by bad refereeing decisions that end up changing the game against us. It's not right and it makes me bloody angry but surely it would have been better for Agger to try and shepherd Berbatov towards the line and concede a corner. Anything would have been better than clipping him and giving him the excuse to go down.

It shouldn't have been a red card, but Gerrard didn't do himself any favours. I can understand he was pumped up and wanted to go for the ball, but it's ****ing Old Toilet & Webb, and they always get the decisions for them under Webb. And that's just something that they need to start ****ing learning, there's nothing you can do about it - just don't give them a ****ing reason. Same for Mascherano a few seasons ago, same for Gerrard today, same for Agger. Although Berbatov dived, Agger touched him, Webb was clearly going to give a penalty. We have the benefit of the replay, Webb didn't, gave a peno.

**** happens. That's life, can't just go waving hands around complaining about it. We just have to start playing better football, although to be fair, we were playing very well up until the sending off, we contained well, pressed high up the pitch and it's great to see 3-4 attacking players up there at all times. Makes a welcome change.

But it's not over yet, still 45 minutes to play and a team talk by the King.

LETS ****ING DO THIS

[Kenneth]

It's a strangely familiar fringe this. Watching us and really really wanting us to do well.

Kenny getting in Webbs ear in the tunnel.....we've needed a manager to do that for years.

[EwarWoo]

Half time team talk:
"Are ya gunna let these cheating *******s do you over? Get back out there and do 'em!"

Webb as been the only difference in this game so far, we're still just about in this.

This football association has absolutely no integrity. One day, someone from that mafia will make a mistake, the info will leak, and these cunts will get relegated.
