Apologies for the Absence




Dear Readers, First up we'd like to apologise for the Absence. We've been experiences some technical difficulties but no worries because we're back!









Man Utd had managed to go through a pretty tough away fixture in Turkey with a 1-0 win to show for their efforts and nothing like a Paul Scholes header to settle it for us. Over the weekend, more exciting things were to come as it took an injury time winner from ex-scouser Michael Owen to finish it up for us to allow united to win 4-3 after Rooney and Fletcher has twice put us up in front.




In my opinion, the match was a classic derby, possibly the best ever Manchester derby in history yet to come. Rooney had put United up early in the 3rd mon after a whiney Micah Richards reaction. However, it took the hero in Fletcher to give us a brace and override the howlers made by Ben Foster. And in the end, it took the effervescent Michael Owen to come provide us with a goal at the death to give us bragging rights after the double losses from last season.



The talkign points of the match would undoubtedly come from the extra 2 minutes of extra-time played but even then, even manager Mark Huges had little reason to make much noise. More words may be spilt however on the edgy performance put up by Foster. Hes increasingly showing that despite his enormous potential and quick reflexes, he doesnt seem to possess the big game mentality.



The League Cup.



WBA failed to capitalise on the sending off of Fabio for a professional foul midway into the first half. A well rounded united performance with a team consisting of the reserves. In the end, a classy finish from local boy Danny Welbeck provided by Owen gave United a goal to cap off a strong finish. The up and coming youngsters in the team are really impressive and i dare say, we may see a new superstar being born in the near future.






Stay tuned once again for the pre-match updates for the weekend's matches.
