The goal that was disallowed was on side!!!

I thought we were the best team(after lose) - by a certain Portuguese manager

after being sent off eh?

The media would be happy if he get banned for several matches - a certain Scottish manager..


Why Excuse: Why would media be happy when they get nothing beneficial out of it...

A deflected goal/ own goals eh? yea..Luck plays a great part in winning trophies

Source?

Anyway, S= Sir, so wats with the Sir Sir Alex Ferguson?

Is either problem reading or problem understanding...

Never know people use this as excuse after losing...

I only know people use this as an excuse after winning...

by a certain manager after losing at Emirates on Nov 8



Debunk-
The fixture list is random, that`s the nature of the fixture list. Therefore, the fact that your team has some tough away assignments after Champions League games is, literally, the luck of the draw.And he himself , too thought it wasnt a problem at all...

Jan 21 2001
by a certain manager after knocked out of the FA Cup by West Ham at home



Debunk -
Blame who for the bumpy pitch?You are playing at home and you shud have the advantage.And of course the injury time is not enough, unlike the 1999 European Cup Final, of course. Time is always of the essence for this manager. If his club are losing, the referee should add it on, if they're winning, he should blow his whistle. Dont get what I mean? You can guarantee as a game enters the 89th minute with his club hanging on to a one-goal advantage, this particular manager will start pointing furiously at his timepiece and probably have a dig on the referee in media again.

May 3 2007
by a certain manager after knocked out of Champion League after a 3-0 semi-final loss at AC Milan, going out 5-3 on aggregate.



Debunk-
How the heck is another English Team able to progress to Final then? So, what he reckon the premier league suppose to do? 1 month without match for them to prepare for the champion league?


And the most funny of all

1996
Southampton 3-1 Manchester United



Debunk:
Funny and lame excuse..and you know wat? The strip was immediately replaced with a new design.

And not to mention a recent one that he claimed his players handball in the match against Zenit was an instinctive.

13th February 2003

Sir Alex Ferguson has branded this week's friendly internationals "stupid".

"Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has to go to Greece with Norway and I think it is absolutely ridiculous. I think that is a stupid one, " the Boss told MUTV.

"We've got fifteen players away on international duty from Roy Carroll and John O'Shea with the two Irish sides, Seba Veron with Argentina and Ruud van Nistelrooy with Holland, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with Norway, seven English players, two with France and Ryan Giggs with Wales.

"It is a lot of players away but we are doing our best to make the proper arrangements to get them back quickly."

Its not good for us to have so many players gone for their international duties.This will affect us badly if some one or other gets injured .We have the important FA cup match ,Juventus plus a heavy schedule from now on.

but i think most of the time the manager blamed on the referee's decisions caused them to lose the game..

But sometimes, some manager did come out with some pretty funny excuses...

EG:
Colour of kits, pitch bumpy cos played too much rugby on that particular stadium...

Anyway, speaking of the referee's decision, a recent one would be Phil Brown's remark on the referee sudden chg of mind for not giving the penalty in the match against Villa

In addition, we din pay 20m yet...We only pay around 10m now...

He was the one introducing the terms " bus parking tactics"

Again? Someone with difficulty in reading? Who mention about AF asking for one month break? I was asking if that is AF's expectation? See that effing big question mark, no?Speaking of that junk list of air_mood, I m quite surprised that he is brave enough to put it on siggy.Come on, ages ago, tonnes of you were denying that ManU are spending a lot and say wikipedia is not trustworthy.Then, what makes that unknown website with simple layout and unknown owner trustworthy then? Or are manu supporters have this selective reading and believing habits?

Added on February 5, 2009, 7:35 amHow many times he get fined and send to stand? Wow, that's less than the fingers of my hands.Why dont you ask the other way round? How many times did he get away from abusing/ accusing the official? And his threatening on the FA alone(in which he threatens to send someone to make sure the fixture go his way) is over the line and should have get fined.But did he? Funnily, no...


As for Duke's Elite status, I dont remember Se7en, RBR or the staffs mention about being an elite need to post up a neutral post...Well, that's being said if I remember clearly.And Elite are recommendation by the mods for contributing to Football Lounge and the status is not for posting neutral post(or to be more precise, post that you want to listen and not the truth)...

For someone who din watch the game but take it as a moan or complaint from Rafa, I find it funny.I mean is not surprising to see rival fans laughing at us.But before you laugh , ask yourself Did You watch the game?

Anyone who watched the game, should know the 1st yellow is never a yellow.Like I repeatedly mention, Lucas 1st yellow was nothing but ridiculous.Arteta fell on his own and kicked Lucas on the knee.The incident happen when the referee was facing the other side.When he turned around and saw Arteta on the ground, he gave Lucas a yellow.

And few days ago after the chelsea game, bunch of manu fans were complaining the red card cost the game.Same here.Lucas get a red that he dun deserve(at least in my opinion) and now, bunch of you were turning back on what you guys said on Monday? Or do you guys have this selective reading and believing habits I mentioned earlier? How is that a red card wont change the game? if it wont, why dont your team start with 10 in each and every match?

If you have nothing constructive to contribute, just dont post.Just imagine if there are 100 other posters like you posted "let him be la...", where our discussion will be heading to?


Talking about cant accept the truth, here's one classic example.

If she can accept the truth that her manager gave bunch of lame excuses, she wont be posting in such a sarcastic way, no?

It seems like u need a reminder that 16m until 2007, 2008 and 2009 transfer yet to be included...We sold Keane back and spent 8m for his 6months.you guys spent 30m on berba...Well, from what I can see, that alone already add up erm....like 22m? And not to mention the signing of the youngster duo(Tosic and Ljacic), another £16.8m.

Riera 8m, Dossena 7m, Degen- free = 15m. That not even make up for the youngster duo's transfer fee

You will see how much if u included the recent transfer....

Why am I pointing at the 1st yellow? Simple. Will there be red if there is no yellow card on Lucas in the 1st place? No.

And so, if the referee's bad decision affected the game, will this consider as excuse? I dont think so.

Speaking of facts, din they (the man u fans) were talking about how Rafa came out with a lengthy list?

And Wan here said I shouldnt do any homework like Rafa did.

What I want to say here is...Just imagine if I dont have facts and din do some homework before posting up, I bet I will be gunned down by those manu supporters.

If I post without proper backup, they gonna say I accuse their manager or being bitter cos their manager is good in coming out with excuses like what my homework showed.

Anyway, they do like to contradict with their earlier statement , no?



The truth is it wasn't Rafa's decision to buy Keane.Take it or leave it.No one force you to believe though.

This post has been edited by solstice818: Feb 5 2009, 12:30 PM

Having say that(bolded part), are you agreeing that we deserved to get the 3 points from Chelsea and the red card din cost the game? If yes, then point taken....If no, you are contradicting your own statement.
