You would not think that anything could overshadow a Manchester United-Liverpool game, but thanks
to Suarez and his antics everyone has seemingly forgotten that United won 2-1 thanks to a quickfire
Rooney double right after half time. The former Evertonian could have had himself a hat-trick had
the referee not disallowed his 30-yard effort for [.
Following yesterday's toxic encounter at Old Trafford, Luis Suarez has apologised for not shaking
Patrice Evra's hand, while Kenny Dalglish has admitted overreacting with his comments in the post
match interview. Liverpool's Suarez caused a storm by not shaking Evra's hand before kick off and
then petulantly kicking the ball in the stands as the [.
Wayne Rooney scored twice as Manchester United saw off Liverpool in a fiery encounter at Old
Trafford. The Liverpool born striker grabbed a brace early in the second half, to secure United
fourth consecutive home win in the league against their bitter rivals from the East Lancs Road.
Much had been said before the game [.
If you're listening on a Mobile Device, use this link Episode 22 Welcome to the twenty- second Can
They Score Manchester United podcast. After an eventful week, this pod sees Doron, Jonas, James and
I look back at our cracking 3-3 draw at Stamford Bridge , preview Liverpool's trip to Old Trafford
and ponder [.
There's something about today's opponents that seems a little familiar. Oh, that's because there
is. The latest installment of the Manchester United-Liverpool rivalry was only two weeks ago, and
after Liverpool nabbed a late win at Anfield that day, United are aiming for revenge in the form of
a crucial league win at home today.
Bitter seems to be a very popular word at the moment, just think of the weather that has affected
the country in the last week or so. Over on Merseyside, Kenny Dalglish has done his best to remind
everybody that the word is not exclusively associated with meteorological elements or beer. The
Liverpool manager is [.
In the pub on a Tuesday night watching United v Stoke when one of us mentions "5 years ago, we'd
have all been there tonight." A moment's reflection and it's with a sadness that this truth is
realised. Sure we didn't all get to sit with each other and not all of us were [...]
In 1975 Admiral took over the design of the iconic Manchester United shirt. They continued until
1980, where Adidas attained the honour. But, for 5 years that striped collar and cuff ensemble was
synonymous with the sexy fleet-footed wingers and the free flowing football that stole my heart and
ensured I supported the Red Devils [.
Sunday afternoon saw United grab a point at Stamford Bridge right from the jaws of defeat. Most
people saw this as a point gained, rather than two lost given the circumstances. With 24 matches
played and both Manchester teams locked at the top of the league, the stakes couldn't be higher.
The big games are [.
It's that time of year again when the financial reports are produced by Deloitte. Its clear to see
(as if we needed any confirmation) who the real money men are in Manchester with United clearing
almost €200m more in revenue for the season 2010/11. It's startling just how much commercial
revenue United create in comparison [.

DARKSIDE CHRONICLES: Edition 002 Let me start off this week by saying that originally I was
planning to offer up a different article that dealt with other problems regarding Manchester
United. But due to the big game and glorious comeback that the lads fashioned on the weekend, I
think I should stick to the match [.
What. A. Game! If there ever was a marque game for the Premier League it was this one. Great goals,
drama, penalties, a wonderful comeback, and horrible refereeing. A lot of people are of the opinion
that Howard Webb was Uniteds best player of the day, but the "best referee in the world" had an
[...]
Manchester United produced a trademark comeback to force a draw at Stamford Bridge. Two Wayne
Rooney's penalties and a late equaliser by Javier Hernandez saw United snatching a draw from the
jaws of defeat, after having been 3-0 down at one stage, while David DeGea produced two
outstanding saves deep in injury time to deny Chelsea [.
Today is one of the most important days in the American sporting calendar, as the NFL's Super Bowl
takes place. But well before the rival Giants and Patriots kick off in Indianapolis, the real clash
of the titans will take place at Stamford Bridge. Either Manchester United or Chelsea have won the
last seven Premier [.
