Ferguson slams Carra Tackle

[dom9]

everytime I hear rat boys name it reminds me of these little gems!

The Gary Neville diaries
Friday
Put the cones out for Sir today and he glanced at me. Made me feel special. He never looks at Phil like that. Told Mum and she said I have to share but that's not fair because I got to the cones first. Moustache looks a bit thicker today.


Saturday
Won today but I didn't play :-( Watched MUTV all night to see whether Sir said he missed me. Am sure they edited it out. Hung out with Rio until he told me to 'go away innit'. Will tell Sir tomorrow. Deffo not a penalty today - gave that girl Boa Morte a nasty stare after the game to let him know that I know. Man in wheelchair laughed at my moustache. Cried myself to sleep.

Sunday
Took Sir an apple. But Weasley :-) gave him a bottle of red wine so he'll probably play on Tuesday. Creep. Went to Mum's for dinner but she tried to make me eat sprouts and then laughed when I banged my fists on the kitchen lino. She won't laugh again. Read Sir's book in bed. Coloured in moustache with marker. Looks manly.

Monday
Rained at training. Marker wasn't permanent.

Tuesday (early)
Playing tonight so was definitely worth washing bibs for Sir. Looked at papers and I was in them again! Will put in scrapbook. So glad I said Porto don't act like men. Am really getting good at this mind games business. Photo on back of The Sun made my moustache look thin but Mum says it's just the ink. She says I look handsome.

Tuesday (late)
Not fair. Not fair. Not fair. It was a goal and we should of won and someone pushed me and someone tried to hurt Ronaldo and the girls dived on the floor and the referee blew the whistle before we could score and they celebrated in front of OUR fans and that made me so angry but I had to go and tell the TV that they deserved it (they didn't and I had my fingers crossed. Ha!). It's just not fair because we're the best team in the whole wide world.

Have given Philip a Chinese burn for that free-kick and told Sir to sell him.

Wednesday
Sir not happy today. He didn't even cheer up when I gave him my drawing. Wonder if he'll put it on his fridge with the others? Saw a small boy laughing at me so held him down until he said that Manchester United were the best team in the whole wide world. Feel better now. Bought some Re-Gane and put on top lip. Can't wait until the morning to see my bushy, manly 'tache.

Thursday
Phoned David to ask him to ask Elton about hair transplants. He said he was, "too busy preparing for the quarter-finals of the Champions League". Am going to tell Sir and then I'm going to fly to Spain and then hold him down until he says that Manchester United are the best team in the whole wide world. And I'm going to take back the Man United sovereign ring I sent him for Christmas.

Update: Mum says I can't go to Spain.

Nani making a statement about Carra's tackle on SSN. Pull the other, is every1going to make a statement when ever they don't like a tackle?

Tom_fairclough9 Thomas fairclough
What's more he suggests Carra was out to hurt him and was only crying because he thought he was out for the season.

[Arn]

Strange that he didn't mention the Evra tackle last night. That was as bad as the one Carra made on Nani.

[Neil Young]

Has Nani really made a statement today?

With Shaggy it's hard to tell.

Hahaha

Nani attacks Jamie Carragher over horror tackle

Manchester United winger Nani has launched a furious attack on Jamie Carragher over the tackle which left him with an ugly gash on his leg.

Carragher sent an apology into the United dressing room immediately after Liverpool's 3-1 win at Anfield on March 6 and then waited to offer his personal remorse for a challenge that forced Nani to be stretchered off.

But the Portugal star was having none of it.

He had not forgotten it was a previous Carragher challenge on him that sparked an injury that eventually forced him to miss two months of last term.

And even now, in the wake of a quicker-than-expected comeback against Marseille in the Champions League last night, Nani is livid.

"I don't know what Carragher was thinking but I do know what he did was not football," said Nani, speaking for the first time about the challenge.

"He came to apologise after the game. But I was not happy.

"It is the second time he injured me. Before he put me out of the game for two months. He always tackles like that.

"I don't want protection. I just want the referees to be fair. If it is a red card, they have to give it. If they give the card, the next time the player doesn't make the tackle."

Although he took a rather theatrical fall after initially getting to his feet to remonstrate with Carragher, once Nani saw the wound that had opened, he was certain his season was at an end.

It was that knowledge rather than the pain, which caused the 24-year-old to burst into tears in a rather surprising display of emotion.

"When I saw my leg for the first time, I thought my season was finished," he said. "That is why I was crying.

"Afterwards, the doctor saw my leg and said I had been lucky because it just needed stitches and I would be out for two or three weeks. He is surprised that I could recover even quicker."

What a total arse spanner...

[Neil Young]

How convenient for Man United's PR people to have another story so readily available to take some of the spotlight off Ferguson's ban. Pure coincidence of course.

[Chrono]

He knows that everyone was laughing at him and that he is now a wimpy caricature of a cheating footballer.

[McDermotX]

****in' hell.......I've seen people who've lost limbs moan less than that.


What a ****ing ******.

Man Utd's Nani hits out at Jamie Carragher over tackle

Manchester United winger Nani has hit out at Liverpool's Jamie Carragher after his challenge on the Portuguese winger left him with a gashed leg.

Carragher was booked for the challenge in Liverpool's 3-1 win at Anfield and Nani said it was "not football."

"It is the second time he injured me. Before he put me out of the game for two months. He always tackles like that," he said.

"I don't know what he was thinking but I know what he did was not football."

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson called the tackle "disgraceful" and estimated a three-week absence for the Portuguese midfielder.

Nani, whose Old Trafford career has been blighted by a string of injuries, reacted furiously to the incident, jumping off the ground to complain to referee Phil Dowd despite having an open wound in his leg.

The 24-year-old initially thought the challenge had ended his season.

However, he recovered quickly enough to play for United in their Champions League win over Marseille this week.

"When I saw my leg for the first time, I thought my season was finished, that is why I was crying," he said.

"Afterwards, the doctor saw my leg and said I had been lucky because it just needed stitches and I would be out for two or three weeks."

Carragher attempted to apologise to Nani after the incident, but the Portuguese player was not interested.

He said he knew he was a player that opponents liked to target, but insisted he was not pleading for special treatment from officials.

"I don't want protection. I just want the referees to be fair," he said.

"If it is a red card, they have to give it. If they give the card, the next time the player doesn't make the tackle."

He also said he thought it was wrong that officials could not take retrospective action over incidents if they had seen them and dealt with them during matches.

He should be careful what he wishes for

[Norbs]

"Afterwards, the doctor saw my leg and said I had been lucky because it just needed stitches and I would be out for two or three weeks. He is surprised that I could recover even quicker."

So the doctors knew it was a minor injury as soon as they saw it...

At what point did Fergie say that he'd be out for 2-3 weeks? He maintained that it would be more than a month throughout.

******s

Jamie Carragher has hit back at Nani, claiming his much-maligned tackle was the first he has had to hold his hands up for in his career.

The Liverpool vice captain has come under fierce criticism by the Manchester United camp for his challenge on the Portuguese winger during the Reds' 3-1 victory at Anfield.

Nani was left with a severe gash on his leg from the studs of a robust Carragher challenge and claimed the tackle did not belong in the sport.

But the Liverpool stalwart insists he has never been called up before for a mis-timed tackle of this nature.

"I apologised for it and said it was a poor tackle so I was pleased to see he was back in training six days later," Carragher said
