Nice one Burnley Boy but where's the bendy line as posted by Bazf.

yeah got to admit it was a goal I did straight away.Just a thought wouldnt it be ironic end of season we do manage to catch Chelsea and win league by one point,the point we shouldnt have had!!!!!!!!!!!

vorlon24 · 18-01-2005, 14:17

There should have been an overrule on that one, definitely. Even Fergie said that it was a goal, and he would have been on the receiving end!

I do'nt know why they ca'nt put something in the ball that triggers an alarm when it goes over the line,it must be possible,some games are so massive these days like the play off final to the prem, and a goal missed could cost a team millions of pounds.

Yes,it's not hard to do,it must be done cos football games now can as I say be worth millions and a missed goal can be all the difference.

an if any1 call man utd cheats they r not its the refs falt

Bazf · 20-01-2005, 22:02

Of course they dont cheat, heres something from the Man scum Utd academy,
If you are running towards the penalty area knowing that you’ve only got one defender to beat, just don’t bother!
When properly timed the just-been-shot dive (a.k.a Hurling) is very effective and looks very good once you have perfected it to an Olympic standard.

Practice
The Scoles........... Delay – Paul Scoles’ reaction speed in a Scum shirt last season was similar to that of a hibernating tortoise, so there was no surprise that he went down one week after Steven Gerrard had made contact (with a force comparable to a mouse’s fart) whilst both players were outside of the area.
All you have to do is think back to the last time someone nearly stepped on your toe in the pub and react like your foot has just been hacked off by an axe the next time you are in the oppositions area.

The Van Nistolroy Flop – Best practised in a Olympic sized swimming pool, you’ll need to chase down some poor, unsuspecting defender so you can use them to propel yourself straight into a triple forward flying somersault with single tuck.
Note: Do remember that just because your manager will say he didn’t see it, doesn’t mean that everyone else and their dog won’t…

arsenal r divin scum so shut up bazf

Bazf · 21-01-2005, 18:57

Articulately put Keyco I presume you mean Arsenal dive as well or had you forgotten about Ronaldo, the kid with a famous name who spends more time complaining then playing or even Van Nistolrooy who cant stay on his feet long enough to take a shot. I am also presuming that you are a scum supporter and a lover of the Man utd Maths so I have reproduced it for you.

From The Official MUFC Maths Workbook, which covers sums for practising Key Stage Two maths for 7-11 year olds. This has been introduced as part of the Government's maths campaign.

1. Roy is 78 yards away from the referee at Old Trafford and Gary is 65 yards away. If Roy can run at 21mph and Gary can run at 16mph, who will be sticking their vein-bulging forehead into the hapless whistler's face first, assuming Roy does not stop to stamp on an opponent on his way.

2. If one minute of time is taken up in a game for substitutions and one minute for injuries, how much injury time will be added on by the referee if Man Utd are losing at home?

3. Ryan is a Welshman. Express, as a percentage, the number of
internationals he has missed on a Wednesday evening compared to the miraculous recoveries he made for the following Saturday.

4. Manchester United are one of the giants of world club football. How many more European Cup Finals have they appeared in than Steaua Bucharest?
(For one extra mark; How many more than Reims?)

4a. How many more times have Manchester United won the European Cup than Nottingham Forest?

5. Phil Neville has 30 international caps. If you take away the number of appearances when he was the only adult male in England who could just about kick the ball with his left foot, how many are left?

6. You are the referee at Old Trafford. How near to a visiting defender does a tumbling Ruud van Nistelrooy have to be to earn a penalty if he goes down in the box? (Note: Round your answers down to the nearest 20 yards.)

6a. Probability. Express the statistical probability of visitors to Old Trafford being awarded a penalty. Compare this with the probability of opponents of Manchester United being awarded a penalty home or away, and then discuss if a penalty awarded to Manchester United would be awarded to their opponents in identical circumstances.

7. Mark "The Red" lives in Guildford. How much does it cost for him and his two sons to travel to the Theatre of Silence every other weekend, including limited edition matchday programme, a few drinks and prawn sandwiches all round? How much could he save per week if he watched his local team instead?
(Note: Round your answers down to the nearest thousand pounds).

8. Alex had a hotel room booked in Glasgow for the Champions League Final. How much money did he lose when cancelling his reservation?

9. Ruud is 6ft tall and very strong and fast. How much pressure need be applied to make him tumble over in the opponents penalty area? (Note: Answers must be in lbs per square inch. However, answers such as, 'However much pressure is applied by Ferguson to referees' are accepted.)

10. Alex has won it 1 time, Bob has won it 4. Alex has one, Bob does not. What am talking about? Explain your answer (because nobody else can).

11. Juan is a very lazy boy and often goes missing. Alex is very cross and wants to sells him. If Juan cost £28m to buy, how much do you think Alex sold him for? How many pennies did Alex lose?

12. What is the total number of chickens counted before they were hatched by Manchester United and their supporters who thought Real Madrid were a pushover.
